What I read about them deleting peoples characters after 30days is not true! I mean if I take a break for a month of god forbid something happens or anything that means I cannot play Diablo 3 for a month I dont want them deleting my character!!!

If the above is not true then a huge sigh of relief as I cannot wait to get my hands on this game!

OcularVision5047d ago

I highly doubt it's 30 days. In D2 it's like 60 days or something.

Pro_TactX5047d ago

It is 90 days for Diablo 2. I hate the idea of expiring characters. I realize that it is not exactly a daunting task to log in 4 times a year, but I would hate to forget once and lose my character.

Also, being a veteran myself, I can't help but think about our men and women in uniform. Sometimes they have to deploy for months at a time (or longer). Is it really fair that they lose their characters because they were doing their jobs?

If they didn't let the cellphone guy touch the 3rd one in first place, they wouldn't have to dance around like clowns trying to make money.

We've been asking for less "boring" seasons... "boring"... not "buggy"... same ol' rehashed content just a different color is not working.

Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.

thorstein501d ago

I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.

All those games had to release without bugs.

Comebacks shouldnt be a thing in videogames. Just saying.

Diablo III - Still a Huge Draw in the Face of Diablo IV

Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.

Palitera810d ago

Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?

kevco33809d ago

Heh, yeah. There's no comparison in here! Its a commentary on how III is still very playable over a decade later.
