Diablo 3 Players Report Drop in Sales Activity

Diablo 3 Gold Guide

I’ve not been as active playing Diablo 3 as I was at launch and even in the beta. It’s a natural response to buying a new game, playing it – full of excitement – then completing it. There’s not much new I can do, bar levelling more characters to Inferno and clearing it. When the mood [...]
