Diablo 3

[Holkeye]

Witchdoctor is my main. Also, the music is really good, but a lot of the themes sound like themes from other stuff that's out there.

[haloOfTheSun]

Pretty typical for western video game music.

[Holkeye]

I swear that I've heard everything from 80's pop music to the Batman animated series theme in there somewhere.

[Sophist]

dude that intro was amazing

[Kokowam]

I really barely see any witch doctors. Of course, I play solo most of the time, and my experience is limited to just playing with my friends, but Demon Hunters are also the most prominent.

And this game is too ridiculous @_@ It's not that it's "too hard" or anything, but everything just one-shots me now or kills me so quickly, and I don't want to sacrifice any of my wizard's precious damage for vitality or resistances. :c

[Lethrface]

I may have to ask my girlfriend to buy me a copy and I'll just pay her back when I get paid because despite my concern about the launch day issues, I am still damn excited to give this damn game a shot.  It's gonna be like a bit of nostalgia mixed with "omg yay" factors lol

[Holkeye]

Witch Doctor is hard, because you're basically a weak army commander. You don't get really good abilities until much later. My although is a barbarian, and she is a beast. Every hit makes you feel so strong. Pieces of things go flying everywhere.

And yes, everyone loves demon hunter, which is actually the most generic one to me.

Sounds like poor planning on your part, to me.  Giving yourself more survivability is much more important than how much damage you do up to a point.  If you are getting one-shot, it's time to up some survival stats

If your wizard isn't a glass cannon, ya goofed.

[Kokowam]

It is, though, lol. I just didn't like getting one-shot'd by the second Act's last boss' last form on Nightmare by anything he used; even his weakest basic attack. He'll probably be the only challenge I have, though, since Blizzard + Hydra can basically deal with anybody that moves around.

And this is my friend. I don't know how much he's been sleeping (or not sleeping) these past few days:

[Esmeralda]

We can't read that it's in noodle language

[Kokowam]

zzz should be obvious with DH and placement of stats, but he has basically 1.1k+ Dexterity and (as of now and not this picture) he has 11k damage

Also playing with a group as a glass cannon wizard is much easier as should have been obvious LOL

Yeah I'm enjoying Witch Doctor as well, though not playing as much as some people seem to be.  I'm only in Act II right now, with a friend angry at me because they can't talk about the story.

[Holkeye]

Act I: The Clicking of The Skeleton
Act II: The Gathering of The Loot
Act III: The Leveling or How I Learned to Choose Skills
Act IV: Repeat

That's the only story that I care about.

[chewey]

That sounds riveting.

[Grafikal]

Monk is really fun. Tons of melee AOE.

[tSwitch]

Act I: The Clicking of The Skeleton
Act II: The Gathering of The Loot
Act III: The Leveling or How I Learned to Choose Skills
Act IV: Repeat

That's the only story that I care about.

Different motivations.

[Kokowam]

And once you get to separating the difficulties...

Normal: Roll face on keyboard while mashing mouse
Nightmare: Learning to kite
Hell: Accepting death
Inferno Acts I + II: Skip the level, kill the boss
Inferno Acts III + IV: Skip the level, die to boss

[Holkeye]

You're on inferno already? I haven't even beat normal yet. I just got my first legendary orange tonight.

[Sophist]

Who dropped it?

[modern algebra]

Yeah, I'm still on Normal too.

[Lethrface]

You're on inferno already? I haven't even beat normal yet. I just got my first legendary orange tonight.

I want a legendary orange.  I bet it tastes amazing.

[Holkeye]

I can't remember who dropped it, but it was during the Kulle part of Act II. It is Boneshatter.

[tSwitch]

I haven't gotten to play that much, so I'm still normal mode Act 2.

[Sophist]

Damn. I hope I get one before I finish, i'm about midway through Act III right now.
