It turns out, D3 is more skilled game than D2

Diablo 3 hard? How? Maybe the combat is a tad bit more challenging due to the nature of the monster affixes

You just answered yourself. Grinding is not a challenge.

@Celestialray-2190

Also, the hypocrisy of OP saying diablo 3 sold more than diablo 2. The only reason diablo 3 sold so much is because of diablo 2.

False. It would been the case with initial sales. How would you explain it sold even more after first year?

@Celestialray-2190

but I’ve heard from multiple people that it feels like a ghost town

You hear from me it’s more active than Diablo II. Of course, that means nothing.

@Celestialray-2190

For over ten million people that bought the game, there aren’t a lot of people left, eh?

It’s over 65 million, over many platforms, and the game is still very active.

@Celestialray-2190

I played all kinds of ARPGs and I will go back to diablo 2, grim dawn and path of exile before going back to diablo 3. It’s just that bad. Feels like an arcade game you would play 20 years ago and nothing more.

What does Diablo II feel like? Not even a video game, just a game for human robots, a labor.

This link that proves that D3 was marketed alongside WoW yearly subscription and that there are millions of WoW players even to this day?

Addressed in the other topic:

@Zahramar-21937

Sold 6.3 million copies after only its first week (out of which only 1.2 million got it from the WoW bundle) and then continued to dominate selling wise reaching over 30 million copies as of August 2015.

Only 1.2 million were from the bundle. Facts don’t care about feelings.

@SWarrior-2403

The fact that cows were original content in diablo 1 that you could click them and they would “moo” as well?

And the rainbow is also a secret level of the same nature, not to be taken seriously. It’s weak elitist talking point.

@SWarrior-2403

That none of you think that without this “loser” original dev you would never have diablo or diablo sequels to begin with?

Which is true, he never made any semi-decent game after Blizzard’s Diablo II. He was just a sore loser.

@SWarrior-2403

Your biasism shows how incredible real diablo fans you were from the start of the series.

This means absolutely nothing to anyone, no one cares if you think we are tru3 1337 f4nz or not. We are discussing here objectively.
(By the way, this is ad hominem you accuse me of)!

@SWarrior-2403

Im not gonna waste my time with this clueless guy that throws everytime ad hominem attacks that you disagree with him with strawman “logic” or “facts” arguments

The irony. Saying I am the one who throws “strawman” and “ad hominem attacks”. The very irony. You know posts are public and people can read them, right?

You don’t want to “waste” time because you are incapable of debating civilly and logically without emotional tantrums.

Also yes, facts and logic always win!

@SWarrior-2403

cries about being PKd in public games

That never happened, but I thought I were the ad hominem attacker .
Discussing a flaw in game design does not mean I am crying because something happened. If anything, I used to be a PKer in Hardcore before I grew out of it.
(Yep, another ad hominem they accuse me of)!

@SWarrior-2403

D2R into D3 which is by the way a ghost town.

D2R is already more of a ghost town than Diablo III. The delusions man, the delusions!

@SWarrior-2403

Go play your precious D3, this is D2R.
Either you like it or dislike it.

This is dismissive childish talk, not even discussing. D2R is flawed and we will keep pointing its flaw until it reaches it full potential because we are people of logic and reason and we provide solid points you do not even attempt to refute.
(By the way, this is also ad hominem you accuse me of)!

D2R is NOT D2LoD. It’s a live service game. 2.4 already showed that.

@SWarrior-2403

We arent trolling D3 forums telling them to transform D3 into D2.

And we aren’t doing it the other way around, and D2R is not D2LoD. You want to transform D2R into D2LoD.
(This is also, yet again, another ad hominem)!!
