Some of my clannies and I have decided to play Diablo 2 in readiness for Diablo 3.  I had to buy it, cuz I have never played.  And, of course, it was cheap cuz it is an older game.  And, the graphics are so so, imo.  And I have leveled to 13 very quickly doing the same stuff over and over.  Get a quest, pursue it by killing everything in site. Go into a cave/dungeon, whatever they are called in this game.  Kill everything.  Pick up stuff, and, oops, you never have enuf room for anything cuz your inventory is sooooo small.  So, quick, port back to town, get rid of your stuff, go back and kill everything in sight and pick up stuff.  Oops, full again.  Do I really need all of this?  Nah....  So, if this is all there is, what now?  Of course, they know I play WoW, and there is a lot of discussion about which is a better game.  Part of that discussion includes the monthly fee for WoW.  And the fact that D 2 is playable online without a fee.  Yeh, I know, some people won't or can't pay the fee that feeds Blizzard's pocketbook.  I really don't care...  It just goes on my credit card and, well, that's it!  So, is it the gameplay?  Or the fact that you are hanging with your buds?  Does the game get more involved?  Very repetitve, so far.  Is it cuz it's free?  Dunno.  We shall see if D3 has more to offer.  I like hanging with my buds, for sure.  The game itself?  We shall see.

It is very repetitive. The fun is in finding new builds to make your toons work a certain way. I guess it's virtually the same thing as WoW. In diablo there is fixed quantities of unique and set items. Part of the end-game type stuff for me is trying to find them all. I never have. There is various builds possible for each type of character, and with so many different types of equipment you can get some crazy powerful guys running around. And when you party up together you can get some crazy amounts of killing.
