So I'm just going to keep trying to request this game because I really do hope that someone out there loves Blizzard games as much as I do and decides to help a fellow gamer out.
Here is my last request if you want to give it a read.
When Diablo III first released, many people found themselves disappointed by the game. The addition of the in game auction house was by far one of the worst changes. Many people hated the auction house that allowed players to "auction" off their rare items (or at least that's what I think it was?) and the overall broken(ness) of the game. The game launched with many bugs and lackluster features. It was not looking good for Blizzard. But through the power of many many patches and bugfixes Diablo III found itself in a decent place. It was an ok game and many people still played it.
However, many many players will agree the game got much better with the release of the expansion pack, Reaper of Souls. I remember watching the trailer for Reaper of Souls and thinking, "spooky". The expansion pack adds many hours of gameplay and quests. I've even heard that the game is "boring" without it.
I definitely plan to invest a lot of time into the game if I get gifted.
It's hard to explain through words how passionate that I am about Blizzard games. But let me try to explain. My gaming roots were established through Starcraft and Warcraft. For many people my age, their gaming roots started with games like Super Mario World for the SNES or some Genesis game (sorry. I'm not very familiar with the Genesis T.T) but for me it was Starcraft. Watching my brother play Starcraft on the family computer, as he tried to teach me how to play are one of the fondest memories that I have.
I play a lot of RTS and MOBAs. Some would even say too much. In the past 2 weeks I have put in around 40 hours into Dota 2 (and I would say that's pretty casual compared to other dota players). I regularly play SMITE with my internet friends. And when I want to hate myself for bothering to play, I play League (recently taking a huge break to learn how to carry games). I was one of the first waves to be allowed to play Infinite Crisis, a now canceled DC Moba (like playing as Batman and Superman) and I stayed with Dawngate (EA published moba) until the bitter end when they FUCKING CANCELED IT BECAUSE IT WASN'T AS POPULAR AS LEAGUE OF LEGENDS. (I am very mad about that. EA canceled a game that many people had loved and played regularly because it didn't make as much money as League of Legends. The game was still fairly new and they were expecting it to be extremely popular right away...)
I love Diablo II. I really do. As mentioned in my previous request attempt, I've played it a lot. Which a lot of people would say "So what? The game's been out for years and years now.". The only problem in that logic is that I only first played it last year.
Diablo II is just hnnnng. Amazing. It's weird how it instantly boosted to tie with Starcraft (BW) and Warcraft III (FT) as first place for my favorite games list.
An update on the demo and how I've played it. As of last night I have beaten the demo for Diablo III on the normal difficulty with all the classes. Everyone. From monk to Barbarian. To be completely honest, I don't think I can stand playing the tutorial/demo again. It was really fun to do and as much as I love replaying good games, having to redo the same story part 6 times in a row did get a bit boring. Especially since it's possible to beat the demo in under an hour.
Honestly, I really don't know what else to write. I tried to write a lot because I know many people see the value of a request based on how long it is but I really can't just do that. I wrote everything that I wanted to write on the game and I really hope it shows. My last request (which I link again) is really more thorough with the game itself and explains what about the game I like so much. But if I had to tll;dr it I would say
Love Diablo II
Love Starcraft
Love Warcraft
Excited for Overwatch
Will replay Diablo III over and over again if gifted
Love the gameplay
Music is amazing as usual
Thank you for reading

Anyways, I really do hope I conveyed correctly why I want Diablo III. I don't know what I'm going to write if I have to request it again... I'm not a big fan of just copy pasting the same request over and over again and I know that many people here feel the same way. It's more interesting to see a fresh request for the same game everytime but I'm having a bit of trouble doing that.
Here is a link to the game on the Blizzard site. I will gladly give you my email if you are gracious enough to decide to gift this to me. It's $40, which is a lot to ask people for but I would really love to play this game.
However, it is possible to buy it off of G2A here where it IS $10 cheaper. I would like it if it was bought off of the Blizzard site to fully support them for making this game. BUT beggars can not be choosers. I will still gladly accept it if it was bought off of G2A.
I don't know what to post for my info but my battle.net account is DankHorse#1373.
and Steam
And as to why I can't afford it for myself, I'm a comp sci major student, who's literally living off of Scholarship funds. I don't really have money to afford fun things and games are really the one thing that keeps me motivated. When I do get games they're usually through the help of friends. I am never unappreciative for anything that anyone does for me. It's impossible to get a job close to where I live because I live near a highschool so all the doable jobs are taken by teens.
Like mentioned before though, I do hope to get a job very soon and if I do I will spend most of the leisure money here at /r/GiftofGames, fufilling requests like mine for people who are clearly passionate about the games they request. The subreddit has done many things for me and it's time I start paying back.
Thank you so much for reading my request and have a nice day!
