HC has always just been a good way to decide I don't want to play Diablo anymore. You never die to anything where you're like, "That was a good fight, oh well." It's always latency or a DC or your companion pulls three rooms of elites or something else that makes you want to put your fist through your monitor.
That said, I get what Masc is saying about HC forcing the intended play model of farming a previous tier before moving to the next, but that doesn't make it the "true" play format or anything. It just means that people playing SC are trying to progress faster than Blizzard intended - which, really, should surprise no one. Except Blizzard, I suppose. They always seem shocked when people don't stop to smell the roses.
Anyways, talking about HC here is pretty pointless as no one I know of in guild is actually giving it a serious go.
