| Touche, I've only had Oblivion (for Xbox 360) for about a month now but you do make some good points about its quality. I mean, the first time I played the game was really fun considering I was playing an Imperial Warrior Knight.
Then again, it's the first time I've ever played anything like it, which is probably why I enjoyed it so much. However, when it comes down to it, the game is far too easy even with a melee only character. My new level 6 mage has been killing things in 1-2 fireballs since he was level 1... and ran through the entire Arena Gladiator quest in one sitting without taking more than one or two hits in every matchup.

As for Diablo 3, I think the whole point and click feature of D1 and D2 made it seem less realistic because of the fact that one hero could essentially run through an entire army of enemies against all logical odds by simply click click clicking away at them until they were dead.
I think that a 3D platform would result in less monsters, more challenge, and more realism. Not to mention better graphics.
But then again, a 3D platform just wouldn't be Diablo.  |
