IMO people who haven't played Diablo 1, 2 or TQ should be banned from posting feedback

Dude D2 i played for 15 minutes. Got bored as fuck, gave it to a girlfriend that was never seen again. The time was not right for me an ARPG´s. That can be true for others too.
But I appreciate your post. And because you are hiding your profile I will tell you this: Hiding Pussys should not be allowed to post and should get banned for posting feedback. Because from what we can see you don't even play the game. To scared that people find out that you are a lvl 45 try hard? You are for sure one of the guys that have a lvl 1 forum alt in world of warcraft dont you?

I'm going to post a factual and useful post on a troll thread - ain't I the rebel!
Diablo - Critic 94/100 User 86/100 - Nov 30 1996 Diablo 2 - Critic 88/100 User 87/100 - Jun 29 2000 Diablo 2 LoD - Critic 87/100 User 90/100 - Jun 27 2001 Diablo 3 - Critic 88/100 User 38/100 - May 15 2012 Path of Exile - Critic 85/100 User 87/100 - Oct 23 2013 Diablo 3 RoS - Critic n/a/100 User n/a/100 - Mar 25 2014 These stats are interesting and can be read in lots of different ways, but what they do definitely say is that via both users and critics, PoE does not quite match up to D2 LoD. But it does match up with D2. (The user score for D1 has to be taken in the context of the fact that it is incredibly old and new users are marking it lower because the graphics are just that little bit too corny, even for the forgiving, so the score doesn't truely reflect actual game validity). Comparing PoE to D3 is utterly pointless, D3 failed so badly that it's one of those times where both sales numbers and critic opinions are, essentially, a mockery of reality. I do think that PoE is extremely lucky that D3 failed so badly and that a lot of the positive user reviews are coming from people who were simply glad PoE was not D3. Does it matter if people have played the old D games? Only by comparison. If a D/P comparison is not involved in the feedback then, no, probably not. But it does seem logical from the evidence that PoE is not as good as it's forebears, regardless of whether you've played them or not. But it is better then original D3. |

" According to your numbers and logic, D2 (LoD) does not match up with D1. |

IMO people who haven't raided Plane of Fear when it first came out should be banned from posting feedback because they're not hardcore gamers enough. There, now I just cut out 99% of PoE population. Does it make sense? Absolutely not!
D1, D2, TQ have nothing to do with how PoE is made and what the developers want to do with it. Because you played a game doesn't make you an expert in the genre, and it doesn't entitle you to look down on everyone else who didn't play those games. Feedback is feedback, and you know what, I would bet feedback from some new players who never played ARPGs before is better than those who keep claiming "I'm better because I played 1000 hours in D2", because then everyone just asks for exactly D2 with no changes nothing improved, what's the point of that? |

2 cousin of me love d3 on their Playstation 3. I think it did not fail because they are the target audience. I am just angry and think D3 failed because I was not the target audience and I realised to late that I am just beta testing a game and had to pay for it.

" Correct. That is often the way with sequels. It's rare for the immediate sequel to match up to the original, but it does happen and, to be fair, if an immediate sequel does only slightly worse then its original then it's probably a better game once you remove original game-player bias and experience. |

" Using your logic again and defining PoE as D2s sequel (arguable ofc), Poe is probably a better game once you... ;) I'm not saying anything you mentioned in your last posts is wrong. But 3 percentage points difference is so low, it may be statistically insignificant, not to mention other problems. Btw, for me, Diablo 1 Ironman is the best hack'n'slash experience I ever had. " Of course they do. Last edited by Sa_Re#3411 on Jan 28, 2014, 4:09:09 PM

" Well, as I said, the qualifier for PoE's score is the timing of the release which coincided with a 38 Diablo. You're not using my logic if you apply the wrong logic. Even if you qualified PoE as D sequel, it's still not an immediate sequel, it would be the third installment. So... 1 = pretty much a 9 minus age issues. 2 = 8.7 gonna upset a few diehard D1's. 3 = 8.4 gonna upset both D1 and D2 diehards somehow, but boosted to an 8.6/7 because the real 3 was so appallingly bad anything not D3 seems better. These would be my logical sequel-common-sense qualifiers for this series. LoD coming in at about 8.85 as an expansion is often a good way to solve/placate any persistent moans. Many people often say OCs of games are a bit naff but XYZ expansion rocks the boat (I have plenty of examples). |
