I can afford to wait as I have a huge backlog of games to finish first including some fun games in the same genre as D3. That is why I was thinking of waiting for the current RoS sale price of $9.88 to go down further to at least close to what I got the base game for. However I don't think RoS holds as much content(with only one Act) compared to the D3 base game(which has 4 Acts) itself, which I only payed approximately $6 for on sale.
In terms or replayability and gameplay getting RoS is definitely an improvement and would be necessary to fully enjoy the game. It sounds like you did both vanilla and the expansions later on. Thanks for the thorough description of the differences. If you have RoS you can play through till you fight Malfael, then go to Adventure Mode and just do bounties on the world map or run random rifts, upping the difficulty till you're playing comfortably but still progressing faster. Without Bounties and Rifts your options either become to up the difficulty and start the game again, or go back to high density zones and grind levels to get to 60. So basically you'll get to experience the game mechanically and most of the storyline, but you can't do any of the endgame stuff, and you'll have very little incentive to get yourself to the level cap since you can usually finish the first four acts before about level 40 depending on difficulty and how thoroughly you complete areas. What you'll miss out on is Act 5 going up against the Angel of Death, you won't have bounties, rifts or greater rifts which are what gives you the replayability and competitive part of the game, and there's not really any solid class builds below 70 (since 70 is where the WoW-style gear sets for each class drop that change how skills work and reward particular play styles) You'll have access to all the difficulty levels other than I think the final 6 levels of Torment difficulty since I think they require level 70. The way it works with D3 is that with vanilla you'll have access to all but two of the classes (you won't have the Crusader from RoS or the Necromancer from RoN) and you'll be able to level up to the old level cap (60) and experience the first 4 acts of the game (up to beating Diablo) which personally I enjoyed. That said, the class itself is fun but it can be safely bought at a later point. It doesn't add a whole lot outside of it. Unless you really want to play the necromancer, there's no point. Fluff and cosmetics aside, it's just a new class. Rise of the Necromancer on the other hand, meh. Don't even bother with vanilla D3, you'll probably run into walls non stop due to how much is tied to the expansion. So, grab Reaper of Souls, it's essentially the new basegame. So much is added with this expansion that it's more or less the new baseline for the game, including several new areas on top of the new act and the maps that come with it, along with many comforts and quality of life improvements. If you're in it for the gameplay you really, really want Reaper of Souls. It's not great but much more satisfying and enjoyable. Reaper of Souls drags it back up from the pit of shite that is D3s Story. The Story in the base game was bad enough that it turned into several memes. If you're just in it for the Story and Experience then you'll want Reaper of Souls. Developer and publisher-specific rulesĪs someone with several hundred hours in Diablo 3, I'd say Reaper of Souls is just about mandatory.
