Just the updates and whatnot that they keep releasing. Now they've released an update which sounds like it encourages following a linear build or weapon type or something of that nature, which to me sounds like every other MMO I've played.
I guess I feel it sounds like D3 is tending to close down and restrict and sheep herd more, and D2 was wide open and explorable.

but d2 was linear as **** if you wanted to make it in the harder levels. only 1-2 skills with all your points into skills that gave synergies (and even then skill synergy didnt exist for the longest time.)
enough str to wield your gear, a few dex if you need to aa, a few energy if you're a caster, and pour the rest into vitality.

Yeah, that's absolutely true. And while I agree with you there, those aspects were so easily attainable that if felt like you didn't have to -grind- for it. That's why it didn't matter much to me and didn't feel like it was linear. Also I found it interesting to try to max efficiency down to the last point of Vitality to obtain 100% the maximum stats possible.
Then you power up your skills and you use only a few skills, but even then, I never felt forced into one thing because getting level 80+ was only 2 days of grinding and it was so easy.
That's why I had five dueling accounts and god knows how many mule accounts.

Well.....linear implaying an inability to talent or build something outside of a character archatype? Dark souls allows you to start however you wish and through leveling at soul shrines divine a path you wished. Your base stats varied on how you started but you could level up whatever you wanted. Or linear like you have to build and skill a certain way?
i really don't see any linearity by looking at the calculator. unless they mean to enforce you to taking one skill of each group.
(i.e. 1 tactics and 1 rage skill for barbs instead of having say 2 tactics.)

So basically they say there's millions of builds and whatnot, but then talk about how they intend to encourage sticking to one thing and grinding to get drops.
I DUNNO. lol. My concerns may not be well founded but I just feel like D3 is gonna be a mini MMO.
