I'm in it for the storyline. I've been playing since 97, and I'm completely pumped to see what lies ahead.

If diablo3 makes you pay for the month like WOW I will call shannonoginz on the jewish creators

tough one, but i would say items and skills
that to me is what made d2 so much fun, the items

i care least about story line. i just want the goodies! items is where its at.

same...and yes...I want to be able to SOLO wherever I feel like soloing...Hopefully without getting killed in 1 - 2 shots! =(

i want brainless killing

I'd guess it's the feeling.

all of the things that made 1 and 2 awesome -all the things that pissed me off, hacks, dupes, realm downs, I dont care about going hostile at will though, Ive done it and ive also got my ass handed to me by people doing it, but its just part of the game. I dont think they should remove this feature.

trading? you should include that mate. I would'nt call it items in general
