not everyone has got food, bed(in the basement), bills, clothes, etc... all payed by their parents, so they can spend 20 bux montly on a fucken game. The people who work, might not want to pay that to play just a few hours during the week...

well not that i wouldnt play it if i had to pay 10-15 a month but , still diablo has been a free game since the beginning
and why change it ?? and there are alot of people who would love to play it but cant afford or cant pay for
some reasons , it should be free for evrybody to play , and he game should just cost alot :)

alot of games offer cash shops. and seem to do very well, have alot of content updates and etc, its a viable alternative to having a monthly fee, and alot of people would use cash shops

I don't think you realize the money mountain blizzard is already sitting on, they don't NEED to charge monthly to support d2.  Hell, just a $25 MOUNT in wow made more than quite a few AAA games ffs.


Because they don't have employs to pay and servers just fix themselves. You don't know wtf you are talking about.

Keep your wowish to yourself and if d3 turned out to be p2p they would lose like a realy large part of d2 players. Meaning they wouldnt profit as much as a no charge play and there are 2 resons why people play d2 first is free second it isnt like wowshit but if d3 would be p2p then they should change the name of the game to wow2 cuz d3 is almost like wow the only detail that still makes it diablo is the fact that its free and they should keep it that way...

Umm if your that tight on money fuck off and stop playing video games lol

But yes i understand the concern about ok well im only going to play a bit this week because im busy with stuff thats always been fucking horrible, i belive you should be able to buy xxxx ammout of hours, and they activate when your actually playing . This way your times not ticking away while your not playing, but then blizzard dosent make as much money... some games do actaully do that though and you buy ,xx ammout of play time and it ticks as you play and not constantly while your not on.

If it's under 20 bucks a month, I think most people can afford that. People spend more on their cell phone bills.


and if everyone hgot d3 then there would be no more need for cell phones

I love how the only period in this entire post was used incorrectly. Lol

Games can make money without pay to play. As stated before, some games, like your example of Guild Wars, have in-game stores that cost real world cash and allow for enough income over the years to keep up mantenaince. I also don't believe that pay to play would do anything to stop bots, and especially not scammers, etc.
