Who is still playing D3 here, honestly WHY are you still playing?de

[Ward]

Please first thing only responses from people who have played this game enough to truly understand it. Lets lets say 2 level 60 characters or have put in lets say over 200 hours into the game, so if you meet those qualification please tell me why your still playing D3.

Is it to try out new skills or variant builds?

Are you looking for better loot?

Are you trying to sell items on the auction house?

What exactly are you having FUN with? Where is your enjoyment from the game?

I mean why are you still playing this game?

I am truly curious

Thanks.

I think the main reason is: "because it's fun."

I'm sure it's a mixture all of its aspects. "Better loot" is probably the main one.

I want to beat Inferno...and...WoW is boring at end of expansion and...there are no other games at the moment that interest me?

Drop rates and the general philosophy for "progression" are not what I hoped for in a Diablo game. It's still mostly a mindless hack'n'slash that kills some time, especially when I run with friends. The game play is a lot less frustrating if I don't worry about progressing my toon and just log in to bash demons for a while totally expecting my toon to never improve.

Not saying it gives the game any longevity or passion...just why I'm still playing.

TL;DR
No real hopes for the game (but I DO believe it CAN be saved) but not quite burned out yet.

yes please specifics of what you actually are enjoying is what I'm looking for.

Again please only player who have thoroughly played the game and its classes.

Where and what EXACTLY is bringing you FUN, what makes you enjoy this game and want to continue playing.

Up until 1.0.3 I was thoroughly enjoying the game; the monsters, the scenery, the skills (was enjoying my wizard the most). Then 1.0.3 and suddenly I have zero enjoyment, despite the aforementioned things. So I'm back to Guild Wars^^

Because it's fun? Is that really not enough? You sound like you want to be convinced that you hate the game - if I'm wrong, I'm sorry.

Anyways,
-Because I have fun being challenged by Inferno HC since 1.03
-Because loot is awesome since 1.03
-Because I can't wait for PVP, especially in HC
-Because I have tons of room for upgrades on my pretty beefy barb right now
-Because I only played 1 class so far (300+hours into the game) and can't wait to try more
-Because I love AH and want to hoard 100 mill (was up to 30, now down to 15 due to losing my last barb)
-Because I can't wait for new buffed legendaries
-Because I love how Blizz slowly polishes the game rather than giving out the final product at once and then forgetting it
-Because this is a bloody good game and NOTHING(not even D2x) else in the genre before or currently/soon available comes even 10% close to how awesome this game is and how even more awesome it'll be within the next few years.

So what was it the you loved so much pre 1.03, really, putting on your MF set for chests, breaking pots to collect trash, or exploiting IAS?

Or maybe I'm not getting you, and you just magically stopped enjoying the game exactly on the day of 1.03.

@Alex & Kitteh - CAT FIGHT!

@OP Because it's fun, and it's a nice way to make a few extra bucks, while spending time with the wife and friends. I also enjoy playing the game, getting better loots, crafting, and being able to progress in the game past act 1 inferno. (Got 2 lvl 60's and over 200 hours in now.)

[rockoffire]

Simply to finish inferno and then i'm done

That, and the cheer pleasure of killing stuff.

I'm still not bored of DII, which I have played over 1.000 hours. I don't pretend to know whether I will do the same for Diablo III, but it's not impossible.
