    I can think of at least one reason to support them; having a massive Steam monopoly is bad for everyone (including Steam users). Competition is good.

    This might be the very first time I've heard someone utter those words on the internet. :p

    Yeah, that doesn't surprise me. :]
    I don't like it, don't get me wrong. But the honest, down-to-earth truth is that I just have never had trouble with it.

    Personally, I find it hard to like or even tolerate when the competition (Steam) is vastly superior but yeah....I've only had a small handful of issues with GFWL

    Yeah, I definitely agree that Steam is easily better, and it would be nice if every game could use it (if they had to use any of them).

    Wasn't the movie/cinematic saying azmodan should be one of the end boss? Now it "probably" is just A3 end boss?

    Was expecting it like ancients or something in last ACT

    The movie/cinematic did not say that Azmodan should be ACT 4 boss. It was just portrayed that he was a boss.

    Did anyone download the game yet?

    Here are the unreleased official download links! You still can't install it until the 15th, but for those of you that bought retail(like me). This is a more updated version,therefore, you have less updates to download. You just have to wait till you get your activation key from the box and attach it to your battle.net account to play.
