I've walked through Hell naked before. That was a challenge, but well worth it in the end.

I guess people aren't interested in actually playing a game so very old as Diablo... Which seems silly to me.

Half the fun of playing this game is finding items for future characters and builds. And then leading these fledgling characters through Hell and back simply completes the cycle.

I agree, playing only over-powered builds seems silly to me. There is so much variety in Diablo, but it seems only a few builds are ever made and even fewer actually played.

I suppose people have this idea that unless you're doing 17k damage per hammer, or 45k damage per lighting bolt, you're not successful in your build. Which I think is lame.
