I have played WBC3 6 hours a night for the last several weeks. I can say that I never got bored or tired. The game is a time sink. I can't pin it down but the depth of character development and a unique upgrade system are a good part. The difference between patch .24 and patch 3 make the game a study in creative thought and love. I have also played version 3 for several years off and on and didn't notice it was broken till patch .24 arrived. Please try WBC 2 if you can, also. This game is a piece of art and shows the hands of incredibly talented people. It shares the podium with 42 as a life event that explains why we game.
