Diablo 3, is patch 1.0.4 too little too late? - Reckless Gaming - WoW ...

It goes without saying, Diablo 3 was a major?disappointment. Everyone will give you a reason for it, and there are multiple problems. I don?t want to go over the various problems and how it effected the outcome of players flocking away from the game, I?d rather share the information in regards to patch 1.0.4. and ask, is it just too little too late?

?

The Paragon System ? ?Leveling? after 60.

?

• After you hit level 60, any further experience you earn from killing monsters will begin to count toward Paragon levels
• There are 100 Paragon levels
• Every Paragon level will reward you with:
  • Core stats such as Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Vitality in amounts similar to what you?d gain from a normal level
  • 3% Magic Find and 3% Gold Find
• In addition, a distinctive?increasingly-impressive border will surround your character portrait in the in-game party frame?to denote your Paragon progression, with a new frame earned after every ten levels. Your Paragon level will also be visible to other players wherever your normal level is shown.

Various ?System? changes ? Overall game balance, regarding Inferno, etc.

So, in 1.0.4 we?re?increasing the health of normal monsters?by approximately 5%-10% in Inferno, but also increasing the likelihood they drop magic or rare items by?a factor of four. We?re correspondingly?lowering the health of Champions and Rares?by 10-25%

PvP ? Not until 1.1

??.

?

To me personally, It?s good to see they are making some very good changes. I will absolutely give the game another fair shot at hooking me like the first two did when the patch drops, I am just very skeptical it will do much to the masses that have basically abandoned this game. PvP in Diablo is a major part of the endgame and the fact that it wasn?t in release bothered me, but the fact they still aren?t putting it in when the game is dying makes me wonder?but it is what it is.

?

Is 1.0.4 enough for you guys to give the game another shot?
