The system of choosing your quest and joining a matching public game makes far more sense to me then trying to pile into a bot run game with an incrementing name.

Custom chat rooms would be nice though, but I imagine that was a launch cut and will be enabled in a future patch.

Killed the skeleton king on two different characters, trying to pick between a wizard or a barbarian going forward. Thinking I'll go for the barb, knocking enemies around has such an wicked visceral feel to it in this game.

Making games to do endless Baal runs or MF runs with your friends would be awesome.. Or lets say a trade room. I very much enjoyed that aspect to it. Blizzard is so dead set on making money with the online auction thing that they are stripping features of Diablo that made the game great. . How the hell do we even do in game trading with anyone but our friends?

Really I loved do Mephisto MF runs with my lvl 98 sorc. Id find mid end gear and go give it away for free. The biggest loss here is the social aspect. D2 felt like a community , D3 feels like I'm just playing a single player game.

I will agree that the forums are funny... I like gaming but I'm 30, I won't be spending countless hours on this like I did with d2 in college. I just hope that eventually the game is kind of like d2. I turned on d2 3 or 4 months ago and still had fun playing it.
