Anyone that reads that that played Diablo 3 for a few months and then quit disappointed needs to patch and give it another go. 2.0.1 changed the game massively for the better.

Remember D2 wasn't all ice cream and cake on launch either. It took a lot of patches and an awesome expansion to bring it around to the classic we love now.

Oh also yeah, forgot about Hearthstone. I play sometimes. Very rarely, but occasionally. My wallet is scared of that game.

I would think some of the fun would be playing it through as another class? I don't know, I played it through twice but played my same Gunzerker character since it was just so much damn fun! But I could see myself playing through again as a different class at some point too.... (although I can't see how anything would be as much fun as Gunzerker!)

Started playing League of Legends back in Januaru. Almost level 22 and looking forward to ranked soon. Play a tad of Forza 5 (But the devs sure blew that game).

Project cars is my next life stealer I believe though..

Except that it’s not.



When D3 was in development I thought they would make achoose-your-destiny and open ended type of thing, with randomized quests andregular DLCs along the way.



The story is still on rails and you have no control overanything.



It is D2 with better graphics but gimped gameplay. (maybe I wantto play a Paladin with a Bow).



I don’t know if you’ve ever been to a casino to aimlesslywonder around and spend a few bills, but when I was playing Diablo 3 after I’vecompleted all the quests I started to get that same feeling you have at 3AMwhile hitting the slots without any clue as to why you are actually doing it.



It’s a time vampire that offers little in terms of mental stimulation or anyreal reward. At least the people who WoWRaid have to put together plans n shit.

Right now ive been in a long pc gaming drought. Was playing just battlefield 4 but the POS still has CTD's. Played the ESO beta and it peeked my interest. Looking forward to it, minus the subscription fee though.

edit: Oh and thinking about Titanfall. The beta was fun. But it just seems like a smash it up arcade shooter which would get boring quick

Patched up D3 after not playing a few months, loving it now, best patch ever.

Before that I played Hearthstone a lot, Smite, PoE, played WoW for a month before it became the same thing the previous several years I played

I don't count dying or thrown in jail for incompetence as an ending.

Nobody here plays ShadownRun? The original game was pretty decent (I give it a 7/10) but the new game (SR- Dragonfall) has a better story and characters (I'd give it a 8/10).

Used to do a lot of SC2 but got bored with it since I was stuck at Gold in 2v2 and 3v3.

I mean, that's cool if you don't like the game or the genre's not for you. Some people think the game is gimped because you don't allocate your own stats and that power is built around gear. Honestly, I prefer building into a specialized class type instead of some random unique thing that I'll play for novelty a bit and then never again, but that's not how some people like to play, and that's fine. I really don't know where you picked up on the CYOA thing with DLC along the way.. Sounds like you want an MMO. Or an FPS? Or both? I dunno, pick up a console and try Destiny when it comes out?

I don't know of any ARPGs that require intense cooperation or raid organization. Hack and slash, pick up and then put down. PoE, Titan Quest, Grim Dawn, Torchlight, Sacred.. they're all like that. Always about more and better loot. Centralizing stats on loot makes that drive even harder.

I haven't tried a Crusader yet since I wasn't in the beta, but I hear they get some ranged spells. There's your bowadin, btw.

You can play a wizard as a melee character, or a barbarian as a ranged character with throwing now. Both are very viable lol

The game doesn't really pigeon-hole you into any one build. I mean, I changed builds like 4 times yesterday on my barb and had an enjoyable experience with each. It really has gotten alot better.

Try it out 7thgear

My list is loooong, but currently I'm playing:

Warframe and Hawken a LOT. Goddamn they're fun. Kinda go back and forth between them.

D3 but dropped it a while back. I completely missed the loot 2.0 patch release, gonna check it out.

EVE Online is still on my radar, but with a new baby it's harder and harder to find the time.

Dark Souls, but not much lately. Also waiting patiently for Dark Souls 2. I heard late April release now?
