I personal find it a nice thing much gear I find in chests, barrels, crates etc is RANDOMLY ! And I don't care about it what kind of gear I find, so I don't save and reload whole the time to have the best gear, o no ... For me, that's a little like "cheating" ...
The randomly of "loot" is for me fun and give me, amongst other things, the most greatest replayability!
I think I find it boring if I known the next time I play a game which gear I would find on specific places ... It's just the fun to find randomly items laugh !! But that's also MY personal opinion!!

The world of both games are for sure NOT the same.
I'm more than satified about the world of D II ... there're many hidden dungeons, chambers, etc ... And there is also many variation in this world.

But I think you love DA:O much more (and I love D II: ED a lot and I love singleplayer - that's enough wink ).

I believe: the more you make a good word about DA:O on this forum, the more you make D II:ED better! wink

Great fun to read this topic grin
