I have been wondering of late whether this beta patch will be the only beta version we see. It seems there are a myriad of problems with this patch and as such perhaps a second version of the 1.10 beta should be released, with all current errors fixed, or hopefully fixed.
Now if there is no second version, then it would seem blizzard have a lot of work ahead of them fixing the current beta errors and hoping the final release has gotten them all. If there are further versions of this beta patch then they too will have to go through a testing phase.
What this boils down to considering the volume of problems we are experiencing, is that I am starting to think that we will not see this patch live on the realms till early next year.
If that is the case how many of us after so many years, will have just given up on the whole thing?
Another question releated to this is that, can Diablo be fixed at all? Will there always be exploitable bugs and errors? Taking that further is it the nature of large games with complex ideas and systems to inherently have bugs that will never be fixed, and a public that will merely consume them anyway?
Just some random thoughts, not at all upset over the length of time it's taken so far, as a blizzard fan I've come to accept it, which I guess makes me a part of the public that merely accepts that's how things are nowadays.
