deff love pvp. there is nothing like dueling upcoming challengers.
the items and skill set make the game all the more versatile.
and i suppose a story line helps

still no one plays just for the music

pvp and endgame content

definatly the story but also the game itsself cause its just going to be one of the best games of the year i think

the way items worked in d2.. was nothing short of perfect. starting from scratch in d2 was fun, mfing is also fun. seeing a bunch of items drop and identifing items hoping for good stats. in my opinion items played a huge role in the fun factor in d2. the huge diversity of stats that can spawn on an item and the many different character builds make it fun to play. that and pvp... its going to be hard to top.

something tells me d3 won't be half as good as d2. especially the pvp system, since the developers at blizzard are saying how they want to make it so two people must mutually agree to a duel before you can go hostile, according to them to prevent griefers. that pisses me off. nking is a lot of fun, and laughing at other peoples expense just never gets old.

For me the feel of the whole thing is most important. It doesnt matter how much they focus on graphics, storyline, and/or the skills, if everything doesnt melt together into perfect hack and slash bliss like 1 and 2 then its a loss. Its important for blizz to try and keep some of the nostalgic feel. oh and items are important too. godly items are just another reason to play and do mf runs.

1. I want the game to be fucking hard.
2. I want the game to be really fucking hard in team and almost impossible to solo.
3. I want an epic story.
4. I want to need skill for PvM.
5. I want balance characters.
6. I want to be able to use a melee light sorc with a epic elemental lightning weapon.
7. I want a secret place where you can actually kill rainbows and shiet.
8. I want to be able to have competive PvP characters even if I can only play 2-3hrs a week.
9. I want it fucking creepy and gore...
10. I want epic final bosses.
11. I want no cheats/hack/third party programs/mods of any kinds allowed.
12. Etc.
13. I just want the best game ever.

DUels and iTems.

Music all the way
