While I have enjoyed playing the game and especially when I have done so in co-op I have been severely frustrated at times. Like yesterday for instance I was experiencing severe lag despite the fact that I have a 100Megabit connection. I was then locked out from playing for 8 hours from single player while they did their server maintenance.
It's been up the last hour but I have to go sleep now since it's 5am Australian eastern time. On top of everything we have no local Australian servers and at the best of times I only get around 220-240ms ping on the US servers. Switching to Asian or European servers doesn't help as the lag is even worse and you can't carry over characters anyway.
If this keeps up it will be impossible to play this game on anything beyond nightmare difficulty.
Another gripe I have is that while I understand why Blizzard would want to make this game simpler for the masses I miss the days of Diablo 2 where you could have powerful custom builds. While gear has always been important at least the skills you chose to focus on defined your character. Now the game is entirely built on gear IMHO.
edit. Just tried to log on and I keep getting a message saying there is a new patch available and the game resets and brings up the launcher which indicates the game is up to date. The end result is that it is still impossible to log on. Keep up the great work Blizzard!!!
