Personally, I don't know if that's not a bad thing to aim for. After all, with the ample amount of skills built around party participation, it seems a natural path to follow.That's not a bad thought, but it pretty much leaves Single Players out in the cold. And why start now? Did they really think D2C or D2X up through 1.09 was impossible to beat without partying? Yes, they've always said so, but it just seems a little late to make such a radical change. Unless this is patch is the be-all and end-all, the one to make the game "everything they've always wanted it to be".
Or something like that.
I'm just concerned because I don't play on Battle.net at all anymore, and I'm sure my accounts and characters are all long gone. SP is fine with me, but if they've really changed the game as you describe, it will simply become an extended exercise in frustration. Oh well. SP'ers get screwed again.
