What are people going to name their characters? I haven't decided yet personally, but I want to put some good thought into coming up with them. During the beta I just sort of did throwaway names that I would never use normally.

I'm actually considering going back to memorable childish D2 names I made.

My first character will be called Soraxas, I use that name mostly for my warrior type of characters.
 
speaking of names, does anyone know whether you can actually SEE the characters name in game?

I mean do you not simply see the ACCOUNT name when your guy is running around?

That's really close the the name I use (in pronunciation): Thoraxes

O wow, that is pretty close. Did you have any inspiration for that name? I got mine when Kindom Hearts 2 came out; Sora + Roxas = Soraxas.

It becomes a bit easier with the battletags being used. Normally I spend tons of time deciding on names. And I am sure I will still do so to an extent.
 
Does anyone know how much data Diablo III uses(like maybe MB per hour)? I plan to record and upload videos once I pass the Skeleton King, but unfortunately next week I will have to implement a data cap (150 GB).

I'm thinking about uploading in 480p, to save time rendering and bandwidth as well. Y'alls thoughts on this?

I always have the problem of trying to keep my names consistent across games, but also wanting the name to fit the character. Going with a witch doctor, I can't really rely on my stable of Russian sounding names.

If you're talking network data it's a trivial amount like any other online game. Wouldn't sweat it.

It's also my battletag name too lol.

I've been using it for 9 years or so. I took a class when I was younger and there was a unit on studying insects. The thorax on an insect sounded cool to me because it had an X in it, and then it just kinda stuck for me.

Naming your character is the most time consuming thing ever.

Considering the mainly name you will have will be your battle tag, i will be using the same name for all characters。:p

For all this time I thought it was Thor + Axes.

I'm going to name my characters what they are. Demon Hunter, Barbarian, Etc. I may add the modifier (mule) to the ones that are just there to hold my loot.

Being a night owl has really paid off!!

So digital version and now a CE version of D3. Hell. I'm not really sure I want to open it and just keep it for later. Fuck. Fuck fuck.
 
Just ordered a second CE. Will likely cancel the first one as I'm pretty sure they never gave me release day delivery on it. May just keep it locked away... what am I even doing with my life.

In two seconds I did two things I wasn't going to: Buy the CE, and buy it before the 12th (new credit card month). Also, it didn't let me use CC points while pre-ordering, which would have covered most of the cost, so I need to talk to Amazon customer service at some point.

All that, and I won't be able to play at 2am. What have I done?

Edit: Apparently Amazon doesn't charge until the item ships. God bless America.
