You select skills in a set of six. It's a build.

No, it's a hand in Yu-Gi-Oh! card game.

Diablo 2 builds usually relied on fewer skills. The fact you had points was largely inconsequential (the skill simply got linearly better; more often than not you were either sinking a single point into the skill, or capping it with 20 hard points. Even if you had an odd number of points in a skill, it's not like this radically differed from any other combination of points in that skill.)
And stats in Diablo 2 were pretty terrible in general. You could play all sorts of stat builds, but most of them were wrong, unless it was "minimum of strength/dex to wear gear/cap block, no energy (outside of maybe one Sorc build) and the rest in vit."
It's fun. I don't miss Diablo 2's way of doing things. Runes beat skill points hands down. I enjoy leveling, instead of it just being something I have to do before the game really starts. Simpler? There are more valid build combinations than Diablo 2 ever allowed. Sometimes less is more.

Those builds that you claim were bad, are the only thing that Diablo franchisee was built on.
The same thing can be said about Dungeon Siege, 1&2 were excellent, though second had it quirks, the third game was just mockery on the franchisee turning what made the game popular into shit.
The exactly same thing was done to Diablo 3, people that loved 1 and 2 for what it was, will hate D3. And no pretty words will change it.

Not sure I'm gonna go there...
As for the people who will hate D3 for what it is... yeah maybe. But sales numbers will definitely show whether the game was "liked" or not... Or it could just show that there are a lot of stupid people out there willing to buy a game because of the name, hate how it's not the same as Diablo 1 or 2, than bitch about it on internet forums. ;)
Anyways, my DH is badass. I finally got Evasive Fire and I'm just firing my gun (cause it sounds like one) and dodge goatmen left and right! This game is awesome! Compared to the first part of Act I, Act II is sooooo much better and it's really satisfying to kill groups of monsters in a deadly and efficient way I like to call keep away!
I'm silly, I know it. I stopped worrying about stats or builds... just having fun. :)

Beginners traps and inherently "right" choices for most of the builds aren't really worth preserving. But hey, Diablo 2 is still up. Can enjoy it all you want.
