i played a stretch during the paragon bullshit and it was still not a big deal to play it on mp10
the thing is that the game doesn't require any skill, it only require items
with the right items, the game is easy. there's no tactic involved, it's just hold down right mouse click and whirl the fuck
Not saying D3 is good or anything but D2 PVM was the exact same... it wasn't hard at all. People didn't play a lot of PVM in D2 like they do in D3 (obviously there being no PVP for a long time didn't help).
And immune monsters weren't that big of a deal, you could skip them if you really needed to. Didn't increase the difficulty much at all. IMO what made D2 live a long time was:
- Ladders
- PVP system
- No respecs (so people had to restart their characters, sometimes many times over, kept people playing)
- hard getting to 99 (baal runs always alive and well even if they aren't "fun", kept people playing)
