The fact you have to log in if you only want to play singleplayer is annoying. You're not allowed to check the game out while they fix the issues with their servers.

I also wasn't a fan of the 12:01 am pacific time launch. I just said screw it and went to bed, I just can't wait till 3am on a weekday.

To be fair, I only had that issue last night. Today it has been pretty smooth when trying to get in. Already at level 10 but i'm doing a bit of farming on the first boss for Rare items.

I agree with the overall feeling that having to log in just to play the SP portion is a bit too much. They could have gone with a system similar to Dark Souls, even if they wanted to mantain some online functionalities on the SP. 

ClassicGamingWizzz said: "Game Breaking Bug Discovered in Diablo III Players are reporting a game breaking bug in newly released Diablo III. The bug kicks players off Diablo III servers, bringing up an Error 3006 message. The bug is triggered when players interact with the Templar follower early in the game, equipping the Templar with a shield. Players on Blizzard's Diablo III forums are reporting the bug; likewise, players on website Eurogamer apparently are, too. The error seems to be specific to the Demon Hunter class. Blizzard, the game's developer, has yet to release a fix. Online, players are recommending that you do not equip the Templar with said shield prior to accepting him as a follower. "Don't trade your equipped shield with the Templar," wrote Diablo III player Laurelin. "The game boots you out, and you can't log back until Blizzard notices and fixes this issue." Stay tuned." to all demon hunter out there

Woah! That could have been me! But my roommate interacted with the templar so I was home free...

I was able to play the game for 20 minutes this morning before going to work! Wish I could have called in sick but it would have been way too suspicious.

I'm loving the Monk's Deadly Reach ability paired with the "Get Off Me" Kick!

BTW my Battle Tag is TruckOSaurus#1784

The game is off to a good start! 2 million pre-orders!

As players adventure through rich and varied settings, they’ll engage in pulse-pounding combat with hordes of monsters and challenging bosses, grow in experience and ability, acquire artifacts of incredible power, and meet key characters who’ll join them in battle or aid them in other ways. The game features the intuitive interface, fast-paced action, and visceral gameplay that Diablo players have come to expect and enjoy.

Designed from the ground up to leverage the full functionality of the Battle.net^® platform, Diablo III also provides gamers with industry-leading matchmaking and communication tools, allowing adventurers to seamlessly join forces for cooperative play. Battle.net also provides the infrastructure for the Diablo III auction house, a feature-rich marketplace that Sanctuary’s heroes can use to trade their hard-earned treasures.

Are you enjoying DIII so far?

Like I said, I've played only 20 minutes so far so I haven't gotten past the point where the Beta ended but I really like it! What about you?

Loving it a lot, already past that point. The gameplay is pretty fluid, one of the best examples of it's genre, plus the runes + skills combinations that you can pull of are really interesting. 

I'm just a bit saddened by the tedious farming (bosses mostly) and constant log in to play on the SP, but other than that, everything else has been amazing.
