Love that flowchart. Is it copyrighted to your knowledge? I'd like to use it in my videos.

I was hopeful but skeptical of this one. When I reviewed the demo, I suggested I might buy it as a I keep an eye on it, but after reading several reviews, I'm all but convinced it's not for me. I'd rather just go back and play Skyrim again, to be honest. Maybe I'll pick it up when it hits the under $20 price point.

Several issues with your logic in your argument. Firstly, I just disagree 100%. OFFERING the OPTION of increasing the graphics for those who can do it does nothing to affect the graphical quality enjoyed by those who don't take advantage of them. It would be Diablo 3 AS IT IS NOW, but then offering something more for…

"D3 is the only game I've played on this thing where I can have almost everything on and it runs like a champ."

"It would take the developers a lot of work to make a game intended to be run on high-end computers to run on low-end. "

I'm reading what you're writing, but I'm in 100% disagreement. Your only real argument/rebuttal to me has been to state that, "items you find in single player can be sold for real money."

So I locked the door by ... doing nothing?

The game is single player by default. Don't believe me? Install a fresh copy, boot it up and start playing.

I tried to be level-headed in my review, but ultimately I did get into a small rant about the persistent online DRM. I know, some people consider this is an online game, but I think that's just an opinion. My opinion is that it absolutely did not need to be persistently online, and it was added as DRM for anti-piracy.

The term RPG is endlessly debatable with no objective standard.

I've completed multiple playthroughs of Dark Souls, so please don't pretend to be some elite gamer who is looking down upon the weaklings who cannot handle the awesomeness that you can.

If a moderate PC runs well with everything maxxed out, it means that gamers with more powerful PCs don't get to see anything for that. If you pay for a powerful gaming PC, you want the option of cranking settings up higher than if you had a moderate PC.

Apparently, it bothered you enough to post a response that attempted to pigeon-hole me into some stereotype you created.

No, I don't they did it to cater to a minority. I think they did it to make DRM integrated so fully that the pirates would feel the need to buy the full game. I think it's a big-fat anti-piracy move.

Excellent point, but that's not entirely true. In Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, you can be a much smaller character or a much bigger character based on your design, and this can be seen regardless of the armor. Some equipment sets show more of your base character than others, too.

Fanboy Sercease, here is my response:

All of this is artificially grafted into the game and leads to a LOT of problems, as we are already seeing. People who can't even play solo because the servers are down or busy. People who lag while playing solo because of their internet connection. Or, people who can't play at all when they don't have an internet…

Yet you have forgotten that there are also potential whiners who don't like the game but don't bother to "whine" on the internet. These are silent and are not speaking out either.

Are you responding to me? Your reply doesn't seem to be in response to anything I wrote, but it has my username.

You don't have to make the graphics mediocre to accomodate low-end PCs, you just need to provide graphics options. That's a cop-out way of saying, "Yeah, we were too lazy to make the graphics accomodate higher-end PCs, so we came up with a great excuse for why we don't."
