Now that the free weekend is over for Diablo 3 Beta, what are your impressions on the game?

Is everyone picking up Diablo 3 upon release?

Re: Diablo 3 Beta Impressiions

Bought and paid for , 'nuff said .

Actually , i would like to elaborate a little .

Even though the beta was only a very Very small part of the game , it did give me a rather good idea of what the rest of the game is going to be like .
I got to try out a couple of the classes , i did not have time enough to play the Demon Hunter and the Monk .
The Witch Doctor was a good summon/pet class(imo a good replacement for the Necromancer) .
The Barbarian , well yeah pretty self explanatory .
The Wizard is the class i liked the most .
Its a difficult class to start with , but i enjoy a challenge .

But why don't i let the devs explain it themselves in this [video=youtube;IzhoGX_7uFY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzhoGX_7uFY[/video] .

Re: Diablo 3 Beta Impressiions

I'm kinda new to these type of games but I think Diablo 3 is pretty fun, enjoyed the games that I played last weekend.

Thinking about picking it up as well.

I'm thinking of picking this one up as well. Anyone know what kind of DRM they'll use?

edit: They're not yet clear on that. I found nothing on their forums (is it a taboo topic there??) but I found this:

It's from the beta and I can see why they have the always-online thing in a beta product but I hope they rectify this for the full version as I see myself playing this quite a bit solo as well (and yes, I NEED to pause the game regularly ;)).
I'm back on the fence for now.

As far as i know the "always-online-while-you-play" is a permanent feature for the full game.
Cant say that it troubles me though ...

Hmm...OK. Thank for clearing that up DOA :)
Not good news though, but I guess most will not have serious problems with that. I'm still on the fence but I'll probably buy it some day anyway...
