Diablo 3 gets 50% XP boost until April 7
With over 1.5 million Diablo 3 players having braved the forces of Death, Blizzard is rewarding the entire community with a special +50% XP weekend through Monday, April 7 at 5AM PDT.
Over 1.5 million Diablo 3 players have bravely journeyed through Reaper of Souls to stare down Death himself, since the expansion released on March 25. Blizzard is celebrating this milestone by offering Diablo 3 players a bonus XP weekend.
According to Battle.net, anyone that logs into Diablo 3 from today at 5PM PDT through Monday, April 7 at 5AM PDT will get a +50% XP bonus. Now that the Paragon level cap has been removed, it's a good time to take on the forces of Death repeatedly and try to snag any loot along the way.
As has been the case with Diablo 3's other bonus XP weekends, the boost will only apply to PC and Mac players.

The monsters level up with you so you won't get to content any faster with this. You'll just hit a higher level faster.
This is really for people who already have 70 and are farming paragon levels or people who want to level their ults. -
I don't think this'll affect your experience all that much. Monsters now scale with your character level, so there won't be a disparity between your level and wherever you are in the story. You'll level up and thus unlock skills/runes faster while the buff is active, but otherwise I don't think you'll really notice it.

Yeah, but that's what I am concerned with, maybe unwarranted because it's been forever since I've played a Diablo game, I was just worried to having access to items and powers before they were intended.
But then I realized, there isn't that kind of expectation for this type of game (or is there?) because I could theoretically grind the first area until capped, so shouldn't be a big deal I guess. -
It somewhat ruined my experience. I was able to play through the game solo with ease as a wizard with absolute ease. Laying waste to mobs, never even giving the enemy a chance to attack. Sometimes I had no idea what I was killing. There were just gibs and bits of table flying all-over.
I bought D3 when it went on-sale. With absolute hatred I just had to try the game, and it is exactly what I was expecting.
It plays like a parody of past Diablo games. It was obviously made by people who never enjoyed Diablo. They had no idea what the experience was all about and fundamentally changed the way the game functions.
Teleporting, checkpoints, skill system, matchmaking, no chat. People don't even say hello when they enter a game!-
Yeahhh, we're talking about things that have changed with patch 2.0. Things have changed drastically since D3's launch, especially with the patch and the expansion. I dunno about people saying hello though; I think that's people, not the game.
I'm not even sure I'm addressing what you're talking about... your post seems to be talking about your past experience...? I'm not sure how that applies to a current XP boost promotion.-

It is just another unneeded addition which detracts from the final product. The separation and difficulty in D2, the tiers: normal, nightmare and hell, worked so well. The new system causes confusion, uncertainty, and a useless division of the players.
The tone of Diablo 3 was how can we cater to the casual player. In this they forgot about the gamer.
Now, we can make things a little easier to dull the pain or you can rise up and conquer. We have chosen the former.-
Diablo was all too hard of a game. Far too unforgiving to actually be fun. Someone will always grab the unique before i get it. Act two was way too hard. I am always away from the group. And if there was an auction house where I could find great deals on cool gear I wouldn't even have to play this fucking game.

you complain about how the game was too easy, then refuse to up the difficulty ?
you claim the difficulty is confusing ? it honestly, couldn't be simpler. You don't have to beat the game on easy mode in order to start playing somewhat more difficult mode. You just.. select the difficulty you want.

I'm convinced the dude is trolling. D2's level-up experience was far easier than D3's. I used to have to play on "/players 8" to feel any sense of danger up until Hell difficulty. That's assuming you're not playing D3 on the easiest difficulty using the easiest class, which produces a similarly simple experience.
Yes, "Normal" is for casuals. You can skip it from day one and be rewarded accordingly. If you choose to play on an inappropriate difficulty then it's your fault -- don't blame Blizzard for giving you options.-
Diablo 3 is a parody of the past games.
The ease, hand-holding, cut-scene after cut scene, teleporting, cutscenes, no pvp, no trading, matchmaking, simplified skill tree, no attribute points, everyone gets their own drops, matchmaking, nice and shiny, diablo screaming "I am legion".
Made by people who hated Diablo. -
