So I bought Diablo III + Reaper of Souls in a compromised state because I justified how much cheaper the combo would be.
I am playing it so much. I am a lady monk and I'm just ruining fools.
I forgot how satisfying this genre is.
Reaper of Souls fixed so much. It is the Dungeon Crawler I always wanted.
I was playing a Crusader, and it's pretty cool, but I was getting frustrated with feeling like I was always just waiting for cooldowns. I'd played all the other classes except Wizard, so I started one.
Oh my god Wizards are so broken.
I started playing on the Americas (All my stuff is on the European servers because the guys I used to play with were there), so I'm starting from scratch. No gems, gold, banner unlocks, nothing, and on hard I killed Maghda in 8 seconds.

I played some of the trial as Barbarian and though it was fun just cleaving my way through the hordes, it didn't seem that dynamic or attention-grabbing.
I switched to the monk and am having a fantastic time. Stringing together the monk's abilities so that you teleport into the center of a mob, stun them and then do the monk's teleport attack just causes one giant mob explosion. You don't even have to click!
I do think playing the demo may have given me a huge leg up. I ended up 2-3 levels past the mark since I had to play the opening segment again with my imported monk (I was bummed they don't just let you continue the plot but whatever). I'm not looking for Dark Souls levels of challenge and I'm just having a good time, but I'm in Act 2 and I've only taken a remotely precarious amount of damage maybe 3 times in the whole game so far. No boss fight has lasted more than 20-30 seconds.
I'm sure I'll burn myself out a bit, but I'm actually pretty stoked to circle back through with another class. I'm thinking I may go Witch Doctor next.
Overall about how long is DIII+Reaper of Souls campaign? I'm sure if I feel comfortable enough I'll jump into some online but with companions and stuff I'm super content just fucking around in the single player for now.

I am down to diablo with you bros when I'm done with this thing I'm doing.* I beat it once at launch and then never touched it again. Everything I hear is that it's way better now, even if you don't creep on souls or whatever.

Probably 15-20 hours, I think. The end-game Adventure Mode can absolutely be played single player, so you can do that as long as you want.
D3 is better with people, though, which is why I moved to the Americas. Hopefully I can start playing with some D&D peeps.
EDIT: I'd recommend upping the difficulty to hard at least. Bonus XP, and it's not that hard. More after that is up to you as the XP bonus isn't quite as large from hard to whatever is next.
Then there's Master and the Torment I - VI. The Torment levels are very difficult, so don't worry about running out of a challenge. Torment VI is pretty much for ultra geared parties only.
Kiddoroar is being a little shit today and wont pick up his stuff, now he doenst get to go to the park tommorow.

Like, my friend and I played whatever the old hardest difficulty was (Insane?) on Monster Power 10 with his Wizard and my Barb. It was tough, but we could handle it most of the time.
When 2.0 came out we got absolutely destroyed on Torment VI.

I drank a beer in bed and watched hotel TV about a guy building houses out of logs. Kind of made me want a house made out of logs.

and I should have some left over in the fridge
but I don't
fuck that pizza place (that I'm seriously considering calling and paying money to even as I type this)
Build your own house. Grow your own food. Put up some solar panels. Never receive another bill.
Puppy pics as promised:
Happy clean puppies! pretty bows!

I am just going to blame this on old age. Stupid aging process...

The Paragon levels are infinite as well. No cap.

I have broken that rule
It taught me that no fer reals there is a reason it is a common rule whatthefuckareyoudoingwhatdidIjustsaydonotbreakitagaindummystop
Then after the second time I did not break it because yeah it is seriously a good rule to have.
I mean what'll happen

When I came out:
What the hell?!
Aw yeah.
