Was reading about Diablo 3.I am not into that series, but I wonder why they chose to go "online only"? That's so weird to me.

I've not experienced any lag at all. But I've had a couple of disconnects. The main reason they have gone fully online is because of piracy. Since all actions are calculated server side, it is impossible for anyone to hack D3 and make a complete game that one can play without paying for it. On top of that, D3 has many functions that are not really single player, including an auction house that can use in-game currency *and* real life currency. If people could log out, duplicate a bunc.

.duplicate a bunch of expensive items and then log back in, it would wreck the in-game economy. **WHEW that was a mouthful, sorry!

Oh, but that mouthful added clarity to the situation! lol Thank-you!
