would you buy diablo 3 if it had a monthly charge?
Hell no!
The monthly subscription scheme is utterly ridiculous. The game would have to be absolutely revolutionary to have me pay ongoing costs to play it, and even then I would complain bitterly.

I hope to god it's not another hack-n-slash
If it was a first person game, I believe they should look to Dark Messiah for inspiration. Although sorely lacking in story line, voice acting, etc. etc., Dark Messiah has the most exiting and intense combat of any game I have ever played.
What it lacks in hard combat pv1m it makes up with in masses of monsters which make situations hairy, assuming you don't have one of those cookie-cutter godly builds.

I'm saying, I'd like it more if it was a MMORPG like WoW haha
Wow, why the hell did you join this site? The reason Diablo is so different from Blizzard's other titles is BECAUSE it's hack n slash and BECAUSE it's not an MMORPG. If you want a non-hns, MMORPG, play WoW instead of Diablo. Doing either of those would completely change the game's core values.
People know that Diablo is a HNS and that it is repetitive as hell once you pick up a cookie-cutter build. Once you get to a certain level Hell difficulty is a damn joke. Warcraft was an RTS and they made it into an MMO and it became the number 1 MMORPG in the world. I don't see what the problem is with making D3 a MMORPG.

i dont disagree.. but i would hate to see WoW with different character models and bosses. dont get me wrong i play WoW.. alot.. but i miss the diablo feel

Yeah that's kinda the downside of that idea, but if they pulled it off right it could make Diablo huge.
I really like Warcraft as a RTS not MMORPG, I hate Wow and most MMO games, I love diablo, and I think games liek that are only repetetive if it has a bad storyline.

Well when this game is released it could ether go one of two ways D3 could take a balk of the WoW players because most people love blizzard games so there going to make the jump and because WoW is a pay game to cover there losses from people migrating from there to put up a payment plan to cover there profit from that OR they would lose money from the "Monthly fee" they don't charge and just work off the general paying of the game

Eh, your joking right. Diablo 3: The New Version of WoW
FUCKING GET YOUR HEAD TOGETHER. DIABLO 3 IN FUCKING CARTOONY GRAPHICS?!?!?!?!?
As for your HNS comment on not wanting it, go play fucking WoW instead. HNS is one of Diablo's core values. And no they didn't turn WC3 into WoW, they built WoW off WC3: want proof? Look on BNet, I still see ALOT of WC3 players on
I would have to say no. But if there was a single player mode and I got in to it enough (as if I wouldn't if I started playing) then I would probably consider it down the line.

I'm sick of hearing people say they can't afford it. We all have bills to pay (some more than others)... suck it up, or stay offline. It's your choice. Just know you'll be missing out on the epic madness to come.
Sorry guys but if you can't afford 80.00ish dollars per year for D3 then I think you have no business online to begin with. Sell your computer you poor bastard or get with the times. Almost all the great online games/servers nowadays require money! Yes the rates are a little high, yea they are a little consumed greed, but great servers don't run in todays world without cash. Chef it up or stay the hell offline you whiners.
If you don't p2p you are not a true Diablo fan. Don't tell me you can afford an internet connection but not a d3 subscription which would be MUCH cheaper! Sacrifice something if you must. That's like saying you can afford to snort coke but the prices of weed are too high for you. Suck it up princess and sacrifice something or stay the hell offline, loser.
end rant.
For anyone that voted "NO"
YOU DON'T DESERVE D3, YOU SHOULDN'T EVEN BE ALLOWED TO LOOK AT OR TOUCH THE BOX. SHAME ON YOU.

No one made me the lord, and this is only my opinion. Though i am already filled with shame and self pity, I heed your words. - Nevertheless- P2P or stay the hell away from MY GAME you ungrateful louse.:)

I hope Diablo3 is somewhat difficult, I mean even in hell you could just one-shot everything

What? I'm not saying everybody that played WC3 is now on WoW, I'm saying they used the story lines and spells and all that.
So D3 becomes another HNS and make hell mode a joke, right?
