They thought of you with the date chosen, 6/6/23

They expect you to buy that many copies now.

I saw a stash on the map in the upper part of the first town.

In general it reminds me of PoE, but the open world crap reminds me a lot of Lost Ark. Not super flattering but it is what it is

18-Mar-2023(#143)We tried to kill the world boss, it did not go well, got it down to about 1/2 health. Then again we were all under leveled and under geared

How does the gameplay compare to 2 and 3?

Much more like 3 than 2 ... unfortunately. It works, and it works well.
It's been years since I played D3 (and I played a ton of it), but D2R was more recent, and will always be my (and many others) favorite.

Are you on PC or console? The last two days so far have been more or less flawless on PC for me.
Overall, feel for this is a mix of PoE and Diablo 3 with a touch of ...that Amazon ARPG I forgot the name of already. It's not bad but I'm not running out to spend $70 on it either. It can wait for a sale, which is not really a very flattering thing for me to say about a new Blizzard game, but it is par for the course lately so whatever.

19-Mar-2023(#153)Read that if you get to level 20 during the beta you get a few rewards in the Game when it comes out one being the Wolf Pack.

Oh nice. Thought there was just a title. After finish everything with Sorc, second toon is super fast to level (largely from skipping story).
Rogue is pretty badass. Didn't realize it was a mix between Amazon and Assassin.

19-Mar-2023(#156)Barb felt pretty weak (at least through the early levels). I really enjoyed the rogue as well!

* 20-Mar-2023(#159)Let me elaborate a bit: Sorcerer is OP at level 3. The other classes fall off immediately and are half as effective as one right mouse button press from Sorcerer. Literally went from a 2.5 minute fight with Barb to under 50 seconds on Sorcerer,
it was kinda gross. I played the crap out of D2/D3, never went from normal to ultra easy in two levels before. Huge power spike. The other classes need to pick it up.

* 24-Mar-2023(#160)I love Diablo games, so I avoided the beta and planned to go in blind when it comes out. Apparently, I was supposed to have access with my Best Buy pre-order, and they couldn’t provide it, so they sent me a $10 gift card to make up for it. That couldn’t have worked out better!
