I don't understand your Diablo 2 servers question. I can still play my characters created in 2001 on their servers, does that answer your question?

Yup, us newer members to the game do exist. Though I've been around for half a year now.

Watching the GW2 trailer inspired me to come back and play a little after taking a year off. I think a lot of the influx of players can be credited to gw2 hype.

I've only been back for some weeks myself and I've noticed that there are actually quite a lot of people in the Euro districts now. When I initially got back even the capitals only had 2-3 people in them.

I came back for the 5th anniversary, expecting something like the 4th.
Now I'm just waiting for the War in Kryta to roll in, just out of curiosity.

Then I'll go back to my other things.

New player here, hi ya! Bought the trilogy from Steam because it was on the cheapish side, and got hooked. I find the battle system much more nice than in WoW for example, and I'm generally just having fun fooling around in PvE. Also a few of my friends bought the trilogy, so we kinda like to go around together.

Obviously you can't read or comprehend. I said are DIABLO servers still around vs DIABLO 2 servers which ARE still around? Meaning Diablo went the way of the DODO bird when Diablo 2 came around.

I think there are some, like me, that have come back and are playing more regularly. I've played EQ2, Wow, Aion and well I got tired of crafting and harvesting lol. And EQ2 was getting easier by the day

Plus I missed GW sure the news about GW2 finally showing up and the War in Kryta was a draw also.

Still after all this time GW is one of the best if not the best

I'm a new user, bought the game on Steam for $20 on Saturday. I just got to Yak's Bend on Prophecies, but reading these forums is overwhelming with how much there is to do!

Oh, plus, the Stone Summit have been killing me, but after my last session I found out that I can now have 6 in my party, not the 4 I have been using. The more you know.....

Id like to Welcome all the new players and welcome back existing ones!

As for the new forum members, Im one of them if you cant tell already. Ive played GW for just over 4 years now, and it took 4 years of playing to tire a bit. Ive been reading the forums for just as long. Decided to start putting in my 2 cents. Now, I have as much fun in the forums

Steam provides a neat flow of players (Most other RPGs in Steam require fees).
I think GW is the most sold RPG in the list.
It also helps when they ask other GW players.
Zaishen Quests also focus playerbase in one task. If you keep track of them, you wil almost never have trouble to finish missions.
Even when they disagree with some changes or evolution of the game, they will almost always make good publicity for the game.

For anyone who was here in the very early days of GW, or had ever been on Bnet in it's early days... this is really a frightening thought... So What happened, do random players on Bnet now threaten to kill your parents the moment you log in?
