I really really really tried to get into Diablo III, but I just couldn't do it. I think my problem was that I went into it expecting a Diablo 2.5 and I had something entirely different handed to me. Perhaps the console version will be able to suck me back into the realms though...
Diablo III, Torchlight II, and Path of Exile

I was playing a lot of Diablo III over the weekend, and over the past few weeks mostly because I really enjoy the game and I was surprised to see a new video for the newest expansion Reaper of Souls. The CGI trailer is simpy amazing and takes an even darker tone then the latest game. The game is also releasing for PS3 and XBOX360 console next week too so there will be more players added now. I've got all the character classes setup minus one, but I will eventually get to it.
I was also playing a bit of Torchlight II. I never actually finished this game. I seem to have trouble wanting to stay in the game. I know a lot of people preferred Torchlight to Diablo 3 due to cost and lack of always-connected feature, and random generated areas, but I still much prefer the fast paced actiony style of Diablo 3. I've already finished the game a couple of times and leveled up a few classes, and there is something about the game that still keeps me wanting to play it until my hand cramps up. Hours go by after starting a game, then suddenly it's bed time. I think it's one of my scary games, can't keep away type of games that MMOs cause people to feel
Path of Exile is quite popular Diablo style game, but after playing it over the weekend as well, I didn't quite get into it like I did Diablo 3. It has a robust customization and item system that I find difficult to comprehend. It looks awesomly complex, the reason people like the game I suppose, but I find the progression to be way too slow. I like the game, but don't love it. Maybe I will learn to love it after playing some more and researching it some more, but for now I just want to play more Diablo 3 and I want the expansion today.
