    Dont get me wrong I still like the hack and slash but I was expecting more considering the hype and how long its been since Diablo 2.

    I dont know what the upload/download of data impact is.... so half the reason I've stopped playing is I dont want a massive internet bill at the end of the month

    That's a fair judgement, as from what I've seen it has certainly been a little more conservative in it's difference to the previous games compared to that of StarCraft II.

    It'd have to be very minimal surely; apart from statistics, location data & comms, I honestly can't see there being much of an impact on one's download limit with it if any at all.

    I had a guest pass so I gave it a go. I agree, it is little more than Diablo II with better graphics. Now you can see why I don't like Blizzard anymore - They no longer seem to be interested in innovation or pushing gaming forward, it's all about the easiest way to make a buck by just rehashing what they know worked even if the formula is almost 15 years old.

    It also didn't help my perception of the game when I was one hit away from killing the Skeleton King in Single Player mode but got interrupted because Battle.Net dropped me out for no reason. I had to restart the whole floor and boss fight. I can't believe that I need to be connected to the server at all times to play single player

    Blizzard along with Bioware, can be added to those once great games studio that fell to corporate greed.

    Activision with COD, Blizzard with WOW?

    I know you're being rhetorical though
