excellent post mrdonkey, sums up my feelings quite well. i doubt i'll be buying another Blizzard product after this, anyone who worked there who had some actual talent for game design has long since left
Titan Quest came out 6 years ago, and it's a far better evolution of Diablo 2 than D3 IMO. it's class and skill system is far superior to D3 with so many different (and viable) combinations that you could pick, the story was better, and the loot table actually had some intelligence behind it (not just a completely random set of stats on every item). and you actually had a chance of getting a legendary or set item drop now and again, an almost impossible feat in D3. such a shame that we'll never see a sequel to it
