Diablo 3 Ca$h wonder

[matias]

Hey all, now you might think I want to ask what the game will cost when it arrives in stores, but that I already know. By employing some logical thinking, I can deduce the price for a game. Henceforth, I'm not going to ask about such a noobish question; don't worry about that.

What I really wonder is something that I have heard. One of my classmates told me some time ago that Blizzard Entertainment is going to charge monthly money for Diablo 3, just like they already do with WoW. NOW IS THAT TRUE!? If it is, I will never buy it and that would suck after the couple of months I have been waiting for it already. :/

So will somebody please answer me: is Blizzard going to charge a monthly fee for Diablo 3 like they already do with WoW?

I would really appreciate an answer from someone who is 100 percent sure of the issue.

i wouldent pay monthy for it, i cant afford it, even with a job

[matias]

[Mathalamus]

Plus I'm more of a grammar nazzi. I really don't care if it's common things, but when a sentenced is riddled with the shit, it tends to get on my nerves.

I'm still trying to figure out what "cos" means.

We're living in an era where people who text over the phone instead of talking like normal people are expanding their communications practices to the internet. They never had time to type whole words on their phone's keypad, so they refuse to take the time to type whole words with a keyboard. One day, perhaps, Webster will begin putting these grammatically amphibious words into their dictionary. It is not a fight the literate can win.

Maybe, but I refuse to succumb!!! I! Will! Never! Back! Down!

I believe these new "words" are already seeping into the dictionary, and I am pleased that it is occuring. I think it's fantastic that new cultural languages are espousing all over the place.

Anywho, topic-wise, I'm not 100 percent sure (as Blizzard hasn't released complete information, so nobody will be 100 percent sure), but I really can't see it being P2P (pay-to-play). If it was an MMORPG, perhaps, but it is an action RPG (hack-and-slash if you will). I don't think it will contain as much content and wide-spread locations to deem it P2P'able. Plus, as a series, it would just seem personally odd that a classic game like Diablo has become a P2P title.

If for some odd reason it became P2P, I would have to see the charge to determine if I would want to play. An alternative would be to just play single-player, as I don't see why they would charge there. If it is completely P2P, I'm definately not getting it, or at least not paying for it myself.

Too bad you can't type with grammar. Not typing the "phone" talk is only half the battle.

[Mathalamus]

theres no use capitalizing my sentences, if you can understand what im saying its good as is

I actually type out every word when I text.

And what he is trying to say is:
His friends were saying that Diablo3 will require monthly payments, just like WoW.
Could be true.
Could be a lie. Lets just wait until Blizzard announces it. ( unless they already have)

[Luke]

mmm. Im not fond of games that require monthly payments. I may play a game for a couple of days like WOW then get bored of it. Then play again for a few days in a weeks time. A waste of money for a few days play in a month.

[Nethran]

Yer. WoW doesn't cater very well to casual gamers that just wanna pop in and mess around from time to time, from what I hear. But, then again, I knew a guy who was crazy into WoW that thought they were starting to cater more to casual gamers so he quit to play Warhammer. But meh. I'd have to try it to know.
