From what I've been able to absorb from Dennis's indepth and highly entertaining Let's Plays (which is also the only perspective I have at the moment) the direction Blizzard has taken on randomization is very adequate. Its so far subtle but effective to ensure that each play through has elements that creat a unique feeling each time you play the game. The difference, though subtle, is as of now but a taste of how it will feel as you progress in the game as Blizzard staff has so far indulged. Meaning if you think that there isnt enough variation then youll be happy to know that what they have displayed in the BETA is but a taste of amount of randomization of what is to come. I think Tyler also brought up an interesting point regarding bonus areas that occured regularily in D2. I am also in agreement that soemtimes these areas dragged on and even though discovery is a huge aspect of the game sometimes it honestly felt pointless or too time consuming in respects to the rewards. I love the smaller bonus zones that I've seen so far, and some of the throw backs to the previous titles in the franchize, "Den of the Fallen" put a NERD smile on my face.
Also the random "Events" that we've seen so far are DEADLY, I sincerely hope that Blizzard has atleast 20 of these as the game progresses each unique or with variations.
On that note, as Cap'n Video would say "YeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeowW!"

Its so far subtle but effective to ensure that each play through has elements that creat a unique feeling each time you play - or watch lets plays - the game. The difference, though subtle, is as of now but a taste of how it will feel as you progress in the game as Blizzard staff has so far indulged.

I love the smaller bonus zones that I've seen so far, and some of the throw backs to the previous titles in the franchize, "Den of the Fallen" but a NERD smile on my face. One main concern I do have reservations towards is the randomization of the side quests or "Events" that we've been seeing such as "The Jar of Souls" or the "Ghost Lady." I think these "Events" are an amazing adition to an already amazing game, and hope that Blizzard has created even more of these as you progress through the game.Posted in: News

Maybe im dead wrong, but its just so blatantly obvious, and to be frank I feel alittle cheated.
Just my two cents.

And to be perfectly honest, why just double the effects for a short time period afterwards, that seems an obvious solution and doesnt add anything really substantial to the game.
Just my two cents.
