Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition |OT| Loot has never looked this good before!

Yeah, I am going to up the difficulty next time I play. I may just go to the next difficulty up and keep upping it if I need to.
My Game of the Year will not be a game I've already played before, but Diablo III, GTA V, and The Last of Us would definitely fit nicely into the top spots if it weren't for that criteria.
Actually invincibility is a base trait for smoke screen, even no rune. It's what makes it a better defensive option on torment 6 where it's very easy to get one shot as a demon hunter if you don't have the unity combo going.
Hopefully this will be less of an issue when dex gives armor in 2.1.

ah ok- well- I never found it more or less useful when playing with my DH and went with vault
Yeah I like vault a lot more myself as well, was hard to give up when I started trying to achieve T6 stuff, but you are really limited on skill slots as demon hunter at endgame since marauder set takes at a minimum 3 skill slots to use properly and I was tired of randomly being one shot.
Someday I will get a fucking dex Unity... Someday...
They do a good job with the difficulty, I think. I played through the game on master without much trouble. I have a fresh 70 on torment1 now and I've had some fights where I get destroyed. The waller affix is death. Not much I can do but die when I'm walled in, the floor is covered in poison, and there's a spinning ice globe on top of me for 3 or 4 seconds.

I love how the music changes and your controller starts to vibrate just before a Nemesis is about to jump into your game.

Can someone explain this Nemesis system to me?

I have played a lot of co-op online. I have literally seen 2 Barbs, 2 Witch Doctors, maybe 3-4 Wizards.
Everyone and their mother is playing as a DH or Crusader.

Guys any favorite melee class? Played a DH and wizard already on PC
My main on PC was a 60 Barb, a 60 Monk on Xbox 360 version, and I rolled Crusader here on PS4, currently level 50.
I'm having a lot more fun with Crusader since their melee/durability feels very similar to Barb but they also have some really satisfying AoE abilities. Monk has some neat tricks but just doesn't have the satisfying flow of combat that I get from the other two melee's.
If you want to avoid running into people playing the same class, I'd probably recommend Barb (although I still have grouped with a few). Crusaders (not including myself) have been in every multiplayer game I've joined so far.

Act 4 would like a word with you.
Refresh my memory, all I remember is it being a terrible impression of Diablo II's fantastic Act IV.

On the PC version, when you enlarge the map, you lose control of your character.

Oh how I love the cutscenes in this game.

Spontaneously bought this today for my PS4 to fill the gap until Destiny, but I only had like 15 minutes of time.
Is it a good idea to play the first playthrough alone? Chose my wizard by the way

He's got nothing on Azmodan in Act 3. I felt queasy from embarrassment as a grown ass adult listening to his awful taunts and insults as he gloriously revealed every inch of his plans for whatever reason. Care bears had more devious villainry.

The first time I played the game, I quite liked Act II. Mainly because it wasn't Act I, which seemed to take for fucking ever to finish.
Okay, fine, every Act is a disgrace. Thank fuck the gameplay is so good.

Things like Diablo's empty threats constantly reminding you that you're never going to stop him (her?) come to mind but thankfully you can hit Circle to stop the dialogue each time.

What time is it?
I like Act I and III is okay. Adventure mode is where it is at.

If a monster kills a player it levels up and randomly jumps into the people on your friend's list playing D3. Every time it kills it levels up and jumps around, so you see how scary a Nemesis is, especially if it has been on a successful killing spree for a while.

It depends if you want to see the story. Story is pretty lame, but the cutscenes are Blizzard top quality.

I thought so, yet this is just another testament to how forgettable the story is.
Favorite cliche so far: "I will make you suffer as I have suffered!"
A++ writing right there.

Question: Why are the video cut-scenes full of so many artifacts (PS4 edition)? Everything in the game runs super smooth, but the normally awesome looking videos look janky as hell.
Zoltun Kulle is the best story element of Diablo 3 (no comment on RoS story content).
That laugh? So hilariously terrible. Like my friend commented sarcastically: "This ain't a bad guy at all".
Besides, the whole quest... Collect body parts to resurrect a guy to open a door for you, kill him. I mean, the whole game's about getting doors opened so that you can go onward but that takes the top place as the silliest way to get a door opened.
I wouldn't actually mind the hamminess and overacting (those things rarely bother me) in this game if the story weren't so terrible and badly and boringly written.
EDIT Zoltun Kulle is so bad he's good. Unfortunately the rest can't be said for the rest of the story which is mostly "so bad it is bad".

Yeah Act II licks big furry ones. The shitty dialogue I can live with, it's the level design more than anything that grinds my gears. It just feels like a slapped together level. I've loathed it since day one / vanilla PC.
