I really hope D3 retains the Hardcore mode (option at character creation to make death permanent.) However, there are a lot of mechanics in D2 that are just outdated. Rigid skill trees, potion guzzling need to be revamped. More active approach to combat - less auto-attacking, more skill use with a wider variety and amount of viable skills. Some limits to Town Portals (no TP's during boss fights like in Titan Quest, or boss "reset" like in the Ancients battle) and teleportation.
By the way, D2 ladders are reset today. Tempting... very tempting...![]()
