Changing My Opinion of D2 for the Better

*For the investigators out there my main account is Kyllap. I made this one for D2. So I've been verrry salty as of late with regards to this game. I had huge expectations as a pretty hardcore D1 player, and pretty much D2 went the opposite way of all of all of them. I've made a few salty posts on here about how I felt. But I'm starting to change my opinion. Bottom line: This IS a quality game. This IS NOT a quality sequel. I'm not going to make some huge post about all the things I miss about D1. It is what it is. THIS game is focused on fun. And it is fun. In a different way than D1 was. Let me explain a little. In D1, many of us had fun through completing very difficult challenges. Multiple times even. Both in PVE and PVP. We paraded our trials and raid gear through the tower as a testament to our accomplishments. And they were. We prided ourselves on our number of flawless runs and raid clears. [i]pff you have 10 HM oryx I have 50![/i]. D2 isn't about that life. Sure there are armor sets from the raid and trials. But they don't offer advantages to either. They do exactly the same thing vanguard armor does. This has been a sore spot for many hardcore D1 fans. But we have only been selfish in that respect. We have embraced the very thing that we hated when Trials was introduced. WE are the try hards. WE are selfishly portraying ourselves as elitists without even knowinbg it. It's us who doesn't want to help newbs through the raid. We get on the forums and talk about soloing Crota. Well great for you. There are people who can't solo a strike, but they still want to kill Crota. Ever thought about helping them? On another note, D2 is just as much a collection game as D1. Just in a different way. And let me tell you. When I go do a PE with my titan setup and IB shaders I get compliments. Not joking. D2 is just as much a male fashion show as the series ever was. Go and farm tokens. Go and acquire that IO warlock set. There is actually stuff to do. Now I'm not saying that D2 is without issues. I hope that BNG can sort through all of our community bullshit and find what we are actually saying. But I AM saying that as a video game itself D2 is good. The end

  • A very valid distinction. Maybe they will give us a free DLC. If we give better feedback instead of ranting lol. Wasn't there a Halo game that did that? Have first dlc for free ?
