So with the meta-discussion in full force about
- this class > that class, the other is impossible past Inferno Ax
- the game being irrevocably broken,
- accounts being hacked,
- followers being useless,
- the failure of online play
- programming shortcuts that lead to scamming,
- the pronouncement that duping has begun and the solution is to cut a continent worth of connections
- the graphics being less than expected
- the skill choices limiting alt/personal tinkering in playstyle
-....
My question is whether I made the right decision by not buying Diablo III? I knew that having a need for constant connection would be an issue for me, and my current PC (a compaq laptop c2007) was likely to have issues trying to run a new release so I decided to wait and see how much I'd be missing before plonking down the cash for DIII. I also don't have the free time now that I did when I was cranking through DII or LoD.
I haven't heard anyone say they regret buying the game, nor have I heard anyone say that it's been great to play/has a great story, and many of the headaches seem to be the same issues that kept me away from battle.net play in Diablo II. Of course, I'm the sort who played a few classes through the end of nightmare in LoD and called that sufficient.
Am missing out on something great, or should I be content that deciding to save the money was the right way to go?

but often it happens you know / that the things you don't trust are the ones you need most....
