I typically like the summons classes so the Witch Doctor seemed like a no brainer to me. The above image is "SnuggyBunny" as he sits right this second. My current skills for SnuggyBunny are: darts, zombie arms, spider queen, poison zombie dogs and horrify. The slowdown that occurs when you zombie arm/eel an area is the basis of how I play the Witch Doctor. Basically I try to get the enemies into a choke-point or slow them such that I can pick them off from a distance. When they are slowed, I toss in the Spider Queen and then start to use the poison darts. My zombie dogs train...
This post isn't really a D3 review, I just want to share my current character as he sits today.

Minecraft gets a lot of love on this site (and rightfully so, that game is great) but I thought I'd bring up another, somewhat similar game. I picked up Terraria last summer during the insane Steam sales that were going on after a friend recommended it. I've heard some people call this game a Minecraft clone, and they do share similar themes, but really they are two very different games.
Terraria plays like a 2D action/RPG/platformer with a heavy emphasis on combat and crafting. While overall I like Minecraft better, there's a lot more "game" in Terraria. In Terraria as you build houses and meet certain criteria NPC's will move into your village. For example: Once you...

I would totally get the Skyrim gameboy version. Gameboy might limit the size of the world.
Be interesting to see The Elder Scrolls in a mobile context.

I just want to say that when I first started playing this, I kept screaming, "I'M BATMAN!!" and, "SWEAR TO ME!!!" At 11 PM, that's a good way to piss off the neighbors.
I know in the midst of Diablo 3 excitement that Torchlight 2 is not in the forefront of gaming nor will it do as well as many AAA titles. Despite that, I'm looking forward TL2. I've played Diablo 2 and had trouble getting into it, but when I played Torchlight, I racked up tones of hours in-game and even got my dad hooked. Between the two of us, we've played about 250 hours in just Torchlight. We played other games at the time too, but this was something we really enjoyed. As to why I liked it more than Diablo, I think I just found myself enjoying the atmosphere more. The games play very similarly, but the atmosphere is very different. Enough about that.
So I've been...

I sit here at work dreaming about Diablo 3. This is the first time in a very long time that I have agonized over waiting for a game and it doesn't disappoint me. I simply can not wait to go home and play more.
As I type this I can't get into Diablo 3. I moved from a state where I was understanding of Blizzard to making the choice to make Diablo 3 a multiplayer game to thinking, maybe they bit off a bit more than they should have with Diablo 3. Perhaps its too much for them to handle because Ive spent more time thinking about outages than playing Diablo 3. Currently at 9.30PDT they are undergoing emergency maintenance:

I hope they clean these issues up pretty soon. That said, when I was in game it was flawless and smooth. Its just the hours of downtime that is a problem. After all this clears up, expect more detailed posts...

I've been playing portal maps and mods for a while. I am happy to attempt to contribute some of my own puzzles with the release of Portal 2's Perpetual Testing Initiative. I've completed two maps so far and am enjoying the process. It's a unique kind of puzzle itself trying to create these puzzles: making the map intuitive enough, making sure the player can't get stuck, watching for unintended solutions, etc. It's a lot of trial and error, but I'm enjoying it. Please let me know what you think of my first two efforts. Thanks!

There is no name more apt for a Witch Doctor than SnuggyBunny.
:) I like it. He is a cool character.
I've only just gotten started due to time contraints, but I went for the Witch Doctor for my first char. Blizzard has learned a lot about creating a engrossing environment.
Very much! The game is one of most polished I've ever played.
For a second I thought he was holding a rubber chicken. I'm kind of sad that's not what it is. :P
I just rolled a hardcore character, and it's a different game. Well, its the exact same game, but with the added perma-death, I play it completely differently. It's much more methodical and slow, but in a way that I enjoy.
There's no chance I'm going to play hardcore. I would just ragequit if I lost a character I'd put time into.
Yeah I tried Hardcore mode in Diablo 2. It isn't for me.
