Triple dipping for me. Bought it a launch for PC, then again for PS3.

It just feels so wrong, but at the same time it feels right.

Maybe I should pick it up.
I have Gamer's Club Unlocked now.
That means with 20% off. I could get it for under 50 bucks.

Anyone have any leveling tips for rushing to 60? I can't remember what I did on PC but I know that it got patched.
I just want to hit 60 so I can do the new Act and start adventure mode.

You don't need to be 60 to do the new act. It just starts after you finish act 4. You will probably be around level 30 at that point.
This doesn't have II, but id say they're still really fun. I really enjoyed my time with both pc and Xbox 360 Diablo 3, I'll be picking this up at some point for ps4.

I mostly played D3 on PS3 solo and enjoyed it. The Scoundrel's commentary made things interesting during my travels.

Putting things into perspective. I've played Diablo II sporadically over a 6 year period, very little of that time was online
Although the multiplayer experience IS fun, the game is definitely doable if you want to go entirely solo.

I'm going to be getting this for Xbox on Tuesday. I really thought about getting the expansion on PC as well, but I love the couch co-op so much, even though I have more friends who play Diablo on PC.
Can't wait to see act 5!

What time exactly is the preload beginning in the US? There's no clock countdown on my mine no matter how many times I reload it but my Destiny has a countdown.

I'm going to assume 10AM PST tomorrow.
I'm gonna check tonight at 12AM PST as well. I wanna get this downloaded overnight if possible.
OMG I support this post so much. In fact, I have become so addicted to this method of listening and playing, that I fear it is interfering with my desire to ever play story-based single player games. I tend to play the mindless games about 90% of the time just because I love listening to podcasts so much. HELP ME (I returned KH 1.5 because of this problem, what have I done?)
I played most of my 1k+ hours solo like 90% of the time. It is a great game solo but enhanced with another player or 2.

You've done a beautiful thing
From Blizzard: "the actual size of the game client which is also comprised of the language files for the game in English, French, German and Italian, is 37.8 GB."
not sure about the 20GB version though.
"When players actually download the game they will get the game and the language file of their choice, which will come in at around 16GB."
Maybe the German-only version is 20 instead of 16?
Anyway, with the 37.8GB download you will get the English version as well.

I always play female characters and have planned to play as a crusader as well. But if you can't decide, maybe watching the class intros might be helpful to get a general impression how they sound. Those are just some small videos about the classes that play at the very beginning of the game, so not really spoilers.

They were leaked months ago, I'm sure it's out there somewhere. I'll try to find it.
Found it in 10 seconds

Combine gems trophy icon is so crap.
It shows mixing an Amethyst and Ruby into a single combined Gem that looks half and half of both, but I know you can't do this.
You CAN however take a couple of lesser quality gems of the same level and upgrade them to the next level. (i.e 3 Marquise level becomes 1 Imperial Level, and 3 Imperial Level becomes 1 Flawless Imperial)
Would love to merge two different types gems if it was possible though.
Can imagine having stacked effects of both a Ruby (+STR) and Amethyst (+VIT) in a single Flawless Royal Gem all on my equipment slots. I wish.

Yeah, I usually find the list by going to ps3trophies.org, but it wasn't in the list of PS4 games. Should have google'd. My B.
Shouldn't be too difficult, I can see the hardcore one causing some frustration because I'm impatient, but even then, on Normal it shouldn't be too bad. I'm excited.

Do you have to start Hardcore mode with a fresh new character?
Oh, sorry, didn't mean to sound rude. The hardcore trophy should be easy on the lowest difficulty. I think the more time consuming trophies will be more annoying, though thankfully it's only 500k gold to pick up rather than 5 million for the worst one.
Yeah.

Can't you just transfer your hardcore character from Diablo 3?
Yeah, you could.

This might be a tough Platinum! I'm already having a tough time with those monsters in the desert who hop towards you really fast, or throw fire balls from a distance for good damage on Expert.
Definitely going Crusader for Hardcore, it'll probably be better than my Demon Hunter.

For a second I was afraid you can only transfer none Hardcore characters, it would suck to lose my level 60 Witch Doctor

If you play local co op can your buddy play one of your leveled up toons? I would assume this is a definite yes but just wondering.

You can do this on the PS3 version in the original Diablo 3 console release via couch co-op.

I was talking with my friend earlier and she convinced me to buy this game. Never played Diablo before! I hope I like it. I'm pretty skeptical, honestly, but if I end up not liking it I can always resell it.

It's the american retail version only on English? I live in South America and that's probably the version we are getting.
Sorry to hear. I hope you eventually get GW as well, as both games are amazing on their own way.
I'm getting both on Tuesday and hopefully have a blast as everyone else.
Can't choose between this or Garden Warfare

Have you tried the demo on PS3? Try that solo and then co-op, see if you like it.
GAF I need your help. I'm a physical kind of guy, I like having games sitting my shelf and I like knowing that I own my games (for the most part). But I know I'm going digital on Destiny so that my wife and I can digitally share one copy across two consoles. Now I'll be the only one playing Diablo, but I'm tempted to go digital on this one as well. I like knowing that I can just hop into it after playing something else without having to swap discs and this is definitely a game I won't be getting rid of. What should I do?

You can't download the demo anymore.
I've tried. I wanted to download the demo yesterday and couldn't find it anywhere on the Playstation Store.
The reason why I wanted the demo is because it lets you retain your save. I was trying to finagle a way to get my D3 Pre-order content (Infernal Helm, Special Dyes, and Wings) and according to Blizzard the only way to do this is by transferring an old save to the new game.
Pretty much. It works great. I'm mainly a PC guy and at first Diablo on a console seemed like blasphemy but after playing it on PS3, I won't go back to Diablo on PC.
PS4 has exclusive content. Some armor and I think a dungeon.

Do it! Go digital!
Better for remote play too

PS4 has some extra content. A special Rift dungeon based on The Last of Us, and few armor sets based on some of the Colossi from Shadow of the Colossus.
Other then that visually and framerate wise I don't expect the PS4 or XB1 versions to be any different.
Half-correct, in that the left stick controls your character(and the best change from M/KB). Right stick is a new evade roll exclusive to console(not that useful). All of your hotbar abilities are mapped to buttons and triggers, so you run around and tap or hold whatever button skills you have assigned to use(works the same as on a KB).
I know, it's so tempting! Plus, with GameStop not doing a midnight launch, I won't have to get up early Tuesday morning and drive to go pick it up.

Performance wise, they'll be the same pretty much. PS4 version just gets these things:
Ah, that's correct. My mistake!

I think you've already convinced yourself, sir. Now, pull the trigger.
Wouldn't work anyway. The PS3 version was patched recently to include a cloud-upload in the options menu. The demo wouldn't have a cloud upload(and this is different from PS+ uploads, all on Blizzard's end). You need to use that cloud upload in the full retail release to transfer a save to a different console. Unless you play UEE on PS3 also, then it just recognizes the save off your HDD.
