i discarded a rather lengthy and somewhat off topic comment i began composing here, earlier today, about how i had been playing Path of Exile, and the incessant "PoE>D3" comments made me want to finally try it, since i've always heard about the diablo series, and never played it... so i tried the demo, found it startlingly similar to torchlight 2 (minus character models), neither of which i would call quite "similar" to PoE... which resulted in a greater appreciation for PoE, but a newfound (i stand by my combining of those two words into a single compound word) desire to play D3. Weird, right?
but i didn't want to give Gamestop my money. I dislike them, even more than gamefly. Plus, i sometimes have trouble remembering which is which (game"stop" or game"spot"... stop is the store, spot is the review site...)
Looks like Blizz finally dropped it's price as well: https://us.battle.net/shop/en/product/diablo-iii
And there it is. Seems like i waited forever for HotS to hit $20.
Lucky me, merely a day after completing one run of the D3 demo, blizzard drops a deal. Tanfastic. Now to find that RoS deal... or wait 'til next year. lol.
