I tend to treat everyone without an avatar as one person myself.

Unable to play SINGLEPLAYER because the SERVERS ARE DOWN.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

...

Actually, if I understand correctly, you are always connected to a multiplayer server so that other players can join you whenever it happens to be.

Except by default they can't, and you have to either make it a public game or set a config option that says friends can join your game any time. Don't try to be an apologist for them.

That's what I thought they did. I've barely played the game. Probably only been an hour total that I've played it.

I really enjoyed the lag in my singleplayer Diablo this morning while I had a video downloading in the background. That was fucking sweet.

You can't crack it to get singleplayer: The majority of the game's code exists only on the servers.

I have absolute faith in the pirate community. They've never failed to bypass DRM before, and they sure as hell aren't going to let this DRM stand, just because it's more intrusive than ever.

I don't think you understand. There's nothing there to crack. Unless someone breaks into Blizzard's system and copies the server software, or else rewrites it from scratch, it is just a logical impossibility. It's like saying you're going to crack google so you can use it offline: There isn't anything to crack. It is a network client, not a full game.

My faith remains unwavering. I understand what would be involved, and i am confident that someone, somewhere, on some shady corner of the internet, is up to the task.

it can be circumvented. pretty easily too.

Not to be rude, but unless Blizzard actually lied about it being online-only, you're talking out of your ass. Unlessall the game content is in the client and all the server does is tell the client to load it, it is just impossible to simply unlock it.

They cracked World of Warcraft.

Yeah, Skidrow has cracked so many "Uncrackable" games, I have complete faith in them.

Again, they cracked WoW, they Cracked Starcraft II, why can't they crack Diablo?

Wow is not cracked. They run fake server software that pretends to be a real wow server.

But what's stopping them from doing the same for D3? the result would be the same.

Yes, but it would not be 100% diablo just as private wow servers are not 100% wow. It's just a "as close as we can guess" substitute.

That does not bother me whatsoever. some of the "blizzlike" servers are remarkably accurate. And realistically, what do you expect from a crack? the whole point is that you're playing the game in a way the manufacturer did not intend.
