replyOne thing I hope they do is allow players to enter/leave instanced areas at will. The way Diablo2 works... The way Guild Wars requires you to form a party before entering an instance is very restrictive and breaks even further away from the MMORPG feeling than having to navigate a menu/gamelist/chatroom between games. In Diablo2, I really feel more connected to the community even though I don't get to run around town with everyone at once... I think a big reason this is the case is because anyone is allowed to enter/leave my public games whenever they want...forcing me to play with more random joes than I would, otherwise. It also allows a little bit of flexibility for PvP which provides an added level of competition feel to the game.
