Mine is definitly Path of Exile.

Is this Blizzard attacking Grinding Games or what?

Path of exile will have fresh content, unlike diablo 2 or 3, which is understandable since path of exile is a free game and the diablo series only made blizzard a couple of billion dollars.

well poe because theres a hideout patch otherwise i would play neither

here is where the ddos right now is so stupid. If they had half a brain they would ddos on the 7th. You know how many poe kids would rage if they couldnt play day 1?

/e I voted : Neither ( I Do Sleep)

are you sure it's a ddos? The timing doesn't make enough sense. Unlesss GGG staggers some of their login servers hardware off towards the end of the leagues (economical so likely) and so are just now even vulnerable to the scale of ddos currently underway...

oh lets be honest, ggg servers begged for mercy i guess someone granted their wish

idk, ggg tweeted that they were being ddos'd and they would get things working soon.
this is day 3 that their website isn't working for me

Still a few servers are working. Not all.
And ddos is not something you get rid of easily. At my work it took days and a lot and i mean really a lot of money to take care of it.
But even with protection in place you will never get it covered voor 100%

erm, poe, not even a contest - hasn't been, since... forever. d2 will always have special place in the corner of my heart, but it's run its course, long ago.

besides, betrayal isn't gonna be 'just another' league. it's the culmination of diablo's inevitable failure, the mockery of activision-blizztard, for their completely shameless and unmasked 'profit-is-bottomline' attitude. the removal of masters grind. a mini-flashback on 2018 with bestiary/incursion/delve implementation. and holiday season with lots of free time.

also a huge influx of new players. for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtSemOHYmXA these prominent diablo streamers are switching to poe... ppl like them have a huge influence on community.

betrayal best league ever. mark my words.

yeah i will never forget the good old times. but its the past and i often think back full of good memories and not one drop of regret.


i am happy with the next chapter and new friends
