[17:48] !King_Amazon!: I'll probably play all of the characters through normal, and if I feel inspired I'll play them beyond that, but I'm pretty much done with the game as it is

[18:09] System: Grav has joined the chat

[18:09] Grav: Gotcha. That's kinda what I figured.

[18:11] System: !King_Amazon! has joined the chat

[18:11] !King_Amazon!: Yeah it's unfortunate

[18:11] !King_Amazon!: If anything I would wait and see if opinion changes after patches

[18:11] !King_Amazon!: They could potentially improve the game, but I'm not going to hold my breath

[18:11] !King_Amazon!: If you look back at the original gameplay videos they posted as teasers, they took about half of those features out, so they are probably planning them for the expansion

[18:12] !King_Amazon!: Maybe the expansion will make the game better

[18:13] !King_Amazon!: I started playing Bastion a few days ago

[18:13] !King_Amazon!: It's an indie game, and it is better than D3, and I'm a hardcore diablo fanatic

[18:13] !King_Amazon!: lulz

[18:14] !King_Amazon!: Well, it has features better than D3. It also has issues but it feels much more creative than what Blizzard made D3

[18:14] !King_Amazon!: D3 feels so generic when I'm playing it, it is seriously worse than some D2 clones

[18:37] Grav: What features are missing?

[18:39] System: !King_Amazon! has joined the chat

[18:39] !King_Amazon!: Cuba is a front to give communism a bad face, set up by the people in power in the US

[18:39] !King_Amazon!: You heard it here first

[18:40] !King_Amazon!: If you watch one of the original gameplay videos you'll see for yourself

[18:40] !King_Amazon!: I'm not going to list them

[18:40] !King_Amazon!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQMBIRipp5A

[18:43] !King_Amazon!: Mouse ball/tab key switching of skills is the first feature mentioned that isn't in the current version of D3

[18:43] !King_Amazon!: AFAIK at least

[18:44] !King_Amazon!: Weapon elements don't have any effect on D3 monsters other than they can be resistant to them, AFAIK

[18:44] !King_Amazon!: Lightning doesn't stun, cold doesn't freeze, etc.

[18:44] !King_Amazon!: At least not in my experience

[18:45] !King_Amazon!: That's another feature in the video that isn't in the current D3

[18:46] !King_Amazon!: There are no "trap" treasure chests and such as demonstrated in that video

[18:48] !King_Amazon!: No ladder climbing, as demonstrated as well

[18:48] !King_Amazon!: No gaps to have to jump over

[18:49] !King_Amazon!: In fact you can't even jump over gaps if you find any

[18:49] !King_Amazon!: Invisible walls and such

[18:50] !King_Amazon!: NPC conversations do not appear as a zoomed in "cinematic" in D3 currently either

[18:50] !King_Amazon!: There you go, that is a sufficient list

[18:50] !King_Amazon!: And not even a comprehensive one

[18:53] !King_Amazon!: Beyond all of that, the story is terrible

[18:58] System: !King_Amazon! has left the chat

[20:19] Grav: Yeah the story does seem pretty bad

[21:24] System: jamer123 has joined the chat

[21:24] jamer123: from the sound of it there wont be a diablo 4 at this rate
