familiarity and nostalgia

incandescensAh well. On the negative side, I didn't get a copy of Diablo 3 today - the local shops had sold out of all unreserved copies by the time I got there in my lunch break. (Though I did manage to get hold of a strategy guide book.) On the somewhat positive side, the fact that the shops had all sold out of copies was symptomatic; from what I hear, the online servers are currently rather overloaded. So I will sit back for a couple of days and wait for the new-game blues to subside a bit.
In the meantime, I'm rather enjoying reading the strategy guide and recognising all those familiar names and faces, all the weapon types, all the monsters, and so on. A warm wave of nostalgia is washing over me. Awww.
