[QUOTE]Single biggest thing is the PvP additions. Looks like we have two choices, non-consensual PvP everywhere and non-consensual PvP almost everywhere. We'll see, I guess. But so far the only thing that made Blizzard RPGs playable (IMO) was private games where we could keep the Type-A individuals out. If I *have* to put up with the crap that is so common in public b.net, then I for one will toss this game.
Couldn't agree with you more on that. Even the current environment without PvP is like playing in a public battlenet channel much of the time. Thinking of what it will be like when the game goes retail and there are even more rude children (of all ages) playing, makes one want to shudder. As to item and gold wipes, I am somewhat indifferent to that; my main concern is the clamor for PvP and the fear that Blizzard will pander to the LeEt DoOds.
