Has D3 really gotten any better with the last few patches?
I was a huge D2 player but was really disappointed with the D3 launch; only played for a little while and am still a little sick over it.
It literally became a different game when Reaper of Souls came out, and it has been tweaked constantly and had more content added on a regular basis ever since.
It was an awful game when it was first released. It is now arguably one of the best action-RPGs of all time (IMO, of course). The combat is simply.... sublime. Some games are better in other areas (example: skill trees in path of exile) but as far as making a complete bloody mess of monsters goes, it's just top-notch.
