Time Capsule from PoE Closed Beta -- a classic PoE vs D3 thread circa 2012
|
Yeah, Path of exile really had me feeling... careful.
Just like the time of the first boss in D1... *shudders*. The bosses in PoE does it right, when i think of them i tink of how horridly they can kill me HC character. That said, Torchlight 2 is a nice game too. Not really gritty but more diablo then diablo 3. If a boss or enemy doesnt makes me feel "cmere, let me end your life pitiful adventurer mwahahaha!". Then the game kidna goes into the "Do i care enough about this game? No...it doesnt make me cautious". Torchlight 1 is still fun at the harder difficulties aswell. Anyway, great post OP. And thank you for putting *that thing i coudnt put my finger on* clear to me. Diablo 1 still has the best music to me aswell. :p *sees a giant figure in a bloody room running my way* |

I'm bumping this (potentially even a necro) because a lot of the recent posts and threads are calling for people's opinions on the matter. This is mine, made from virtually my first few days playing the game.
Account sharing/boosting is a bannable offence. No ifs, ands, or buts. No exceptions. Not even for billionaires.

neeed betaaaa keeeey :))
D3 as it is now is just sad |

" There are several threads in the beta invite discussion board about this -- but my personal sentiment is that is $10 is beyond your means, you probably shouldn't be getting into something this addictive to begin with. ;) Or wait until Open Beta, slated for August.

I'd love to pay the 10$- but sadly I have no credit card or paypal or anything like this so I have to wait if the system they have in place will give me one or somebody else will. As for threads where you ask for the key - I have a feeling there are a lot more people asking for the key then there are those who can give it.

Well OP,
i approached Diablo I in the exact same way as you did. And Path of Exile seems to take this experience even several! steps further. From a fellow exiled explorateur |

What a great post, sounds like everything D3 did wrong POE is doing right!

Great post! I agree with everything you said. Unfortunately I never got to experience Diablo 1, but I did play D2 a lot. (a lot is an understatement).
Right now, I'm pretty low on funds. Being a college student and in my current situation I almost live from pay check to pay check. I'm hoping I'll be able to become a supporter on 25th when I get payed. I already got beta access from the random timer tho :) (took a couple months) So glad I did, because I probably would've never gave this game a second look if it wasn't for that email. If anyone else here is wondering "should I buy a beta key". Absolutely, I state with 100% confidence that you will not regret it. Last edited by Patrick92#7601 on Jul 19, 2012, 10:15:12 PM

Congrats on getting a key via the timer! And awesome that you plan to become a supporter.
I can't believe this thread is still in circulation. That's nifty. Account sharing/boosting is a bannable offence. No ifs, ands, or buts. No exceptions. Not even for billionaires.
