    Why do you think people like kungen and kripp farm goblins for 10+ hours a day? do you think they enjoy it? they do it to either get gear which they very rarely get, or to sell the gear they can't use to buy gear from the AH. Go and watch kripp/kungen farm goblins for 10-15 hours and see how many items they get that are any decent and they can use.
    Your talking about USING and ABUSING the AH at the same time and they are two different things. Using the AH would entail me using the gold that i have earned from drops i will not use by selling them on the AH as well as gold drops for killing/breaking stuff to purchase gear. Abusing would entail for the most part buying and selling or commonly referred to playing the AH to me of course its a opinion .

    If you want me to finish the game without ever using the AH I would easily be able to do it. There's a forum on Diablofans.com specially ment for trading like in the old fashioned Diablo games where you clicked on a player in a town and it would trade them. The AH just makes that easier

    Honestly, I don't think people need to justify there reasons for thinking it's either good or bad as much as they are. D3 is just a game. A mediocre game, and that's that.

You can still enjoy Diablo 3 and if paying $60 for a game like Diablo 3 is too much for you, you seriously need to get a job.
    i've paid far more for far crappier games just sayin'

    As a 60k DPS DH you should be fine in A2 just don't get hit by one of the many things you can't attack until it is attacking you (Sandsharks, leaping guys and, naga's)

    killing stuff isnt hard, not getting killed is . . . need more resist, hp and less latency

    1. Heroics and harder difficulties are not content. Its artificial prolonging of short games and only cover the lack of real content.

    2. Its called sense of character progression. Getting gear of Ah isn't the same as earning it though blood and tears after long and hard battles.

    3. You called D3 on your @ 1 as a single player game. And guess what you where 100% correct.

    Its a mediocre game at best

    I give it a 6/10 if it was a game from a random company.
    4/10 for a Blizzard game

    Not worth more then 25-30 euros in any case and instead we payed it 60
    Get the WoW mentality out of your head, higher difficulty IS new content. Playing the AH/getting gear to complete all difficulties is character progression. Play D1/2/LoD and come back.. Every game from the old generation of Blizzard games, and tbh all other games, are grinding games. If you havn't played those and you're used to getting everything without working for it then don't play D3.. Diablo is all about beating the highest difficulty and grinding.. grind, grind, grind. Then grind some more.

    Story is great, can't wait for the expansion pack. Overall an awsome game, just like the other Diablo games, D3 lives up to and improves the series.

    I concour with the OP . I play a barb stuck on act I inferno farming due to the steep gear requirements from one act to another .
    But I will not complain about it , I just means I have to farm more coin for AH purchases or try to grind them out with valor stacks .

    I guess there are people who rather blame everything under the sun , rather than fix the problem mainly that being there baddies real baddies that don't want to step up there game but rather the game come down to there level of talent.

    I welcome all the complaining. Especially about the AH and the longevity of the game. Hopefully the developers take notes to change things around for future patches/expansions.

    Diablo III made some great changes to the D2 system. However, it ultimately is missing part of the fun factor that D2 had.

    With your logic, WoW must be 100000 times harder than SC2 if you click every ability on your character.
    No, using my logic, how many buttons a game has has nothing to do with how difficult it is...

    I'm not up to inferno belial yet but he's never been hard and since bosses get no new mechanics cant see it being any different, shit he was almost one-shothing me on hell, btw my current dps is only 12.7k atm at start of act 2. I could prolly skip elite packs and get to boss but i refuse to, its kind of a bad habit don't wanna move forward until I'm able to kill everything I encounter, that's the main reason I'm gonna be in act 2 for a while.

    There´s noone that really can´t get past nightmare. You can easily outlevel/outgear everything below inferno. Just go back a little and try again.

    diablo 3 isnt that great, its a decent game but gets boring really quickly, the story is only 4 hours long. The AH has made it essential to buy gear as there is less than a 1% chance to even get something useful at all and mostly the game is about having the right gear.

    They have had over 10 years to make this game and most of the community is disappointed with how it turned out. Its less about skill and more about having the correct gear, I myslef prefer to earn my gear rather than being forced to buy it and no matter what anyone says you are forced to use the AH as you will just be stuck with an endless farm with next to no hope of ever getting an upgrade.

    Its a good game but atm the replayability is very limited.

    The reason for this is, that the community has changed A LOT the last 10 years. People who actually played the other D's are probably fine with D3, but since the community has changed, blizzard released the game thinking the same people play video games. The old school gamers are grownups and have jobs/families etc to take care of and can't invest the same amount of hours today. But I bet you they still enjoy the game, cuz it's an improvement to D1/2, a bit short yes, but still good.

    The AH is fucked though.. to bad it failed...

    My one major problem with this game, and it is really simple, is that they promised us true build diversity (over a trillion builds), yet everyone I know who is playing inferno is severely limited in their skill choices and playstyle. Functional character skills, at inferno levels, are so shamefully constrained.

    Wait until people get better gear, and you'll see people with different builds. Yes they promised millions or trillions of builds, and they are there, but if you wanna beat the game undergeared, then you have to use the absolute best builds out there...

    Personally I'm really enjoying the game. Didn't even think I would as I've never played Diablo before and I usually don't like these sort of dungeon crawlers, so that was a pleasant surprise. Having said that I do fully understand why people find it becomes boring quickly because it's essentially the same thing over and over and over.
