Guild Wars, free beta now (well not NOW now, but then now)

[A Black Falcon]

Yeah yeah, but then I'd have less time to play games... :)

If you really want a Diablo II comparison, I actually played a couple of hours of D2 online with a friend last Friday. Went through the end of act 3 and then acts 4 and 5 in Normal (single-player characters, multiplayer via IP). It just confirmed my opinion that though Diablo 2 has great graphics and is fun in single player for a while, I just don't care much for the multi. IMO anyway the multiplayer game is just there for trading items and maybe making the enemies slightly harder... that's it... "teamwork" is a phrase Diablo does not know, and I just am not interested that much in playing the game in multiplayer mode. Unless people want to give me items (like my friend was doing). :) And even then, it's not like I'm going to play tomorrow and continue the single player campaign (midway through Nightmare difficulty with the only character I've beaten Normal with)... no, IMO anyway, Diablo II despite its good points is no competition with Guild Wars for action-based online multiplayer games.
