Anyone looking into this? Been playing a bit of it recently, really liking it, might be grabbing it soon.

Most reviews I've read were kind of negative.

HGL is the game you should subscribe to if you want a negative credit rating.
The billing launch is so poor that it might as well be one huge scam. IMHO State Attorneys should get these guys.
If you read the reviews, they all say "addictive game but buggy and unfinished". And that is pretty much spot-on. It clearly shows that EA forced them to get it out for Halloween as the game could have used another 3-6 months of polish. Which shows the greed and stupidity of EA if you ask me, as the negative reviews will not be revised when the game does reach maturity.
Basically, if you liked D2 then you should give this a spin and give them the time to fix their issues. Otherwise, stay away.
I liked D2 for one reason and one reason only: hardcore mode. Not only is the hardcore mode back, but it comes with a new setting. Elite. Elite mode is the equivalent of heroic in WoW. Unfortunately I was so busy at work that I have not had time to get to HC elite, but that has me salivating as it turns an otherwise mindless grind into an actual challenge. Imagine doing WoW heroics where if you die you stay dead. If that is your kind of thing, you should buy the game.

If anyone is playing this...
Marksmen are as BROKEN as a Warrior with Deathcoil dual wielding Skillheralds and pumped up on PCP.
There's a vid out there of a Marksman dropping the last boss in the game in 3 seconds using Beacon, Rapid Fire, Multi Shot and Tactical stance. Ridiculous.
