DIII, worth the time?

...but it's not very good either.

Actually, I'd disagree. It's very good. Metacritic gives it an 88/100, or A- (same score as D2 btw) and I think that is a fair objective score.

It's just not what I wanted DIII to be, but I still play it and I enjoy it. But, I was expecting more than a remake of D1/D2. Had it been more innovative then it would have deserved an A+. If we had all never played D2 already, this would be an awesome 2011 release of D2.

I feel the same way when they remake old movies. Why? I've seen if already. But, yes, it's still a good story, with good acting, and was well made. However if someone hasn't seen the original that was made 20 years ago, then perhaps they'd think it was outstanding.
