D3 is way more hardcore than d2 in the end..
I love d2 alot, but when you get geared, then there is no difficult content left.. So thats a huge problem while d3 keeps going up in difficulty with grs to a point where everything one shots you.
Problem with d3 in my eyes atm.. High ranking on the leaderboard requires you to paragon lvl everyday atleast 4-5 hours and there is nothing more boring than farming xp for hours..
Its easier to get into d3 and learn the basics compared to being new in d2.
But endgame content is harder in d3 than d2 has ever been..
Everyone here that has played d2 for years knows that you can build a really cheap smite and do UT in around 1 minute and you fairly easy can get a char that can solo everything in hell (This leaves no content left and the game just dies for many people)
D3 is an endless grind for gear and paragon lvls.. You have to go into d3 with that mindset since no one can sell you the gear you need like in d2 and you actully have to work for gear ;) (D2 players: Oh no the game requires me to play.. This sucks)
ppl have a "unknown,false,wrong" nostalgia of d2
trade was aweful, unless via forums
PVP was aweful, unless via forums
endgame was non-existant, unless no-xpac and via forums
D2 was a pure forum game, the only reason its not a brower games its to allow ppl to hack/bot more.
Whoever say pub pvp, pub trade and "pub end game" was fun is a total ignorant and fucktard, prolly never played a single game in new ladder until he could get a rush to act5 baal.
edit : playin new ladder and geting stuck to ancient hell doesnt count as been a "pro" d2 player.
and dying in HC wasnt big deal, freidn could bring back gear, and dying once at 95 was worthin the xp from 1 to 90.
