Credits: 15 Spent time on board: - Rep Power: 4 ![]() | I would definitely, and here's why: Ever noticed that the last patch for D2 came out two years ago? Ever noticed that when you log in, the newest news articile is three years old? That's because Blizzard has severely cut back the amount of people monitoring and updating the game. In fact, there are only one or two admins on Diablo at any given time. Blizzard did this because they can't spend as much money now as when they started out, because the game isn't pay-to-play. When the game was released, the only source of income was the game sales. After a while, the game sales begin to run dry, and Blizzard sells only a few hundred Diablo's per month, or even per year. This is not enough to sustain the servers, moderators, etc. What this means is that Diablo II has not been updated for the past several years, and Blizzard has no authority, if not, then at least very little, over the Diablo servers because they can't pay for Moderators because they are no longer getting enough income. Even without Moderators they are losing money, although not quickly. Eventually, the Diablo servers will be closed down, depending on how much money they are losing. However, with pay-to-play, Blizzard is always gaining money, so they have enough money to install and maintain several servers, hire multiple Moderators, and keep them occupied for as long as they want, as long as there are people playing the game. In Diablo II, they could only do that as long as people are buying, and then it was over. The main reason I'd buy a pay-to-play game is because the online community was nicer, the Moderators are actually there, and the updates come monthly no matter how long the game has been out. Even with this, however, Diablo II is performing well, so I would prefer a free-to-play game, although I wouldn't mind it otherwise. Good day! ![]() |

and that was about 1 year ago. I think that if they came out with a Diablo III or a Diablo II ExpII then it would have to be the best game ever, and would have to be completaly addicting, like GTA:1-San Andreas. To even come remotley close to the legacy that the Diablo Series has created, not only would it have to be the biggest and baddest game in existence, it would have to have a completaly new storyline because this crap of diablo coming back, just won't cut it for a pay to play game. SO I think that if they came out with a Diablo III or ExpII, and it WAS a pay to play game, it would have to have mods like crazy, because if I am correct, a couple of my freinds alone, would make this game no more fun to play. It would become another Diablo II Exp 1.09, and we all know that was just total chaos. Which is why I think that 1.10 was just a simple solution. Perhaps it was to lead us off in thinking that the servers are going to be slowly shut down one by one. Then when we least expect it, BOOM, Diablo III comes to the rescue. Well, that was my simple suggestion to this poll, if anyone agrees, which I think most will, I would love to talk about Diablo III storylines, plots, etc...

I have been playing D2 for several hours a day since it came out, I have tried dozens of games since but none can replace D2 for me. So I will be really looking forward to a D3...like most have said..depends on the fee |

I think that all of the people in blizzard should make it p2p becuz the people who really like it would play = less noobs = more fun and i think that more people will start to play becuz it actually has a everyday staff = MORE $ |

If your paying, your obviously not gonna waste your money and only play sometimes. B. Your paying to play an RPG, one of the biggest stereotypical "nerd" games. C. You obviously have nothing esle to do with your money then to spend it on an online game. My two cents..but whatever floats your boat. |

I wouldn't play it all the time, I have a social life, and it'd be nice to have something to do in my down time. Good reasoning, but my goal would be to find the happy medium. |
