Agree to an extent. Server issues are definitely a problem. But the difference in gameplay is huge. Slower and more methodical, with a different slant on survivability versus DPS is important.

Nothing like the gut rush of HOLY SHYTE as you are swarmed and you survive something.

Not sure I would play HC to the extreme higher levels, but it IS a rush playing it. And so what if you lose a mid level char... build another.
