I didn't realise they were working on D3.
How dumb can you get?
D2 is a disaster, and they're working on a new game? F. U.!
Who the hell is going to buy D3, considering the current state of D2?
No way. You can keep D3. Give it to your 6 year old, it might be up to their standard.

You realize that by the time The Dark Below came out for D1 they had already started development on D2, right? That is common practice. You can blame Activision for the shit state D2 was released in. They made Bungie restart development and still make the deadline with only 16 months time, or have half their stock handed over.

[quote]You realize that by the time The Dark Below came out for D1 they had already started development on D2, right? [/quote] Sure, but D1 was a much better game at that stage. We had stuff to do, while they worked on D2, and they had enough staff on D1 to still make changes and fix issues. D2 is a mess, they need to reallocated their resources to fixing their existing product, before trying to release a new one. Consumer confidence is at an all time low, who's going to buy D3? [quote]They made Bungie restart development and still make the deadline with only 16 months time, or have half their stock handed over.[/quote] I wasn't aware of that. That sounds like a pretty shitty working environment. But it doesn't change the fact that D2 needs a lot of work, and nobody really gives a damn about D3 right now.

We have plenty to do in D2: Nightfall, strikes, Crucible (with Trials and Iron Banner), a raid, and a pseudo raid. The issue is we have no reason to do any of it. If Bungie would give us a reason to do the activities we currently have then the amount of complaining and criticism they are getting would drop dramatically. I am not disputing that D2 needs work. D2 is far from perfect and I am part of the group that believes it shouldn't have been a whole new game, but instead a large expansion to D1 akin to The Taken King. The story would have played out differently, but then it wouldn't need all the work it needs now.

[quote]I am part of the group that believes it shouldn't have been a whole new game, but instead a large expansion to D1 akin to The Taken King.[/quote] I would have preferred that too. Just make a massive expansion to D1, using the same Cabal story line would have been way better.

I do not have a reason to jump anyway even if they make big changes, only real large changed that we community asked for years, than I will see a worthy game of my time.
