In my opinion Diablo 2 itemization have been way more mature than D3's itemization. Why did they not build on that instead of just using the names of the items....
Having legendaries with fixed scales for roles.
Runes and runewords, that was the best about D2 that I just miss in this game...
Upgrading gear
But I guess we need to face reality this game was intended for the console from the start, and the PC version was used to generate some extra money for Blizzard by introducing huge variability in items that would sell for lots of $$$ etc.

The game has serious potential, the devs just need to listen to the community.

1. Stop the kyak property rolls on items.
2. Make boss farming viable again - I get that's all people eventually did, but at least there was purpose to it.
3. End game - unlimited dungeons or map crafting (this is where PoE and TL2 shine)

I know this has been harped on ad nauseum, but I needed to "vent"

This I don't care if a leg or set drops every 10 hours of gameplay but for the sake of my keyboard I wane jump up and down knowing it will be awsme when it drops

I read a dev-post linked off reddit the otherday, where a dev replied to a post on their forums. Something they've sat down and discussed and something they'd like to implement is a open world after you've completed all levels. So you can move between zones, everything is spawned and repawns, bosses are always there, etc. So you wouldn't need to choose act/mission start the game to farm, you could just start farming and then loop around cause everything respawns and can do boss fights etc.

Actually, here's the post http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/9362896579?page=5#87

Well Barbs are OP. I like playing them but the fact that I could do a higher MP with my barb with very average gear versus medium to good gear on my monk... well that tells the story.



Well

1) Botting
2) Get an uber lucky drop and flip it
3) Buy gold with real money

I refuse to buy gold as I think that will kill this game for me. I must say I am starting to think that I will mainly play Hardcore as there is no real money AH, and thus makes the game a lot more enjoyable.

Agreed. I spent about 30 minutes last night with Carbon in HC mode and it was a jol. Was only on lvl 13 but the thought of possibly dying and levelling up a new toon was pretty cool. Definitely keen to carry on with HC for a while.

That honestly only solves 10% of the problem. In D2, the problem was farming the same area (albeit a boss) over and over again. They need to do something else which doesn't get completely monotonous while still being rewarding. Something like randomised dungeons with random monsters who have random properties per dungeon floor or something similar.

I don't have a viable solution to the problem, which appears inherent in all ARPGs, but having 15+ years experience in the field, I'd hoped Blizzard did.

I've only made 2 RMAH sales - One a Tal Rasha's Allegiance for 17 Euros, and another a real crap Skorn for 7...

I once sold some set item in early days and I got 170 euro I think, but it must have been some freak occurrence.

Have not been able to play lately. Turns out that real life is HardCore :(
My fiancee's mom passed away with no warning on Wednesday morning... Not sure I'll be able to get online in the foreseeable future.

Have noticed exactly this while playing Hardcore.... When I do MP10 during hardcore runs, I mostly just get blue drops, not even rares! But switch to a public MP0 game, and the rares starts raining down...

My condolences, family comes first, so support them during these times! We will most likely still be here when you return.
