I actually really enjoy it. I grew up on Diablo, and it was one of the first games I really played obsessively as a kid. It really translates well. Obviously, it could be tweaked here and there, and as posted before, it doesn't and won't have PvP now or at launch. That'll be patched it, but truth be told, PvP for Diablo III is more end-game than anything so it wouldn't have been played much at launch.

Overall, I enjoy it.

Is it still click to melee attack like Diablo II was?

If so, how would you see that translating well into PvP?

Diablo and PvP is nice, but it really isnt the selling point for me. It has always been about the co-op play. There are some games that are great for PvP like the FPS games, while there are other very underrated PvP games like star wars Jedi knight academy, but game like Diablo just don't feel right.

I just don't see how the "click to melee" gameplay would work with PvP.

It is still click, with a 3 button hotkey bar for skills. It works on smaller matches, but other than that it wouldn't. It's more about strategy, like WoW, than actual skills like shooting or power.

I think the beta is boring. But I haven't played it since this last patch may get on tonight.

Still no official release date? I might get fired when this releases.

ETA: Also, how do you sign up for beta?
