"What do you think is the real problem on D3 and why people just get bored in about 2-3 months after expansions or patchs?"
People get bored because they exploit the game to death, or have the wrong (mmo) expectations of an ARPG like Diablo 3.
The biggest problem is all the players who look for things to dislike rather than enjoying a game for just what it is.
(There was never this kind of whine in the Diablo 2 communities.)
I guess you were never at the main forums for Diablo II at launch back in 2000. They whined about everything. You nerfed Corpse Explosion, You nerfed WW. You nerfed this build and now I have to start a new character. You nerfed gambling. Those are just a small sample of the whining back then in the early 2000's.

On Strike and supporting Fallout 4 Mod Makers
Some fallout 4 mod makers have had their mods stolen and uploaded and downloaded on Bethesda's site for the Xbox One.
What do you think is the real problem on D3 and why people just get bored in about 2-3 months after expansions or patchs?
Probably the fact that playing any game heavily for 2-3 months, or indeed partaking in any leisure activity heavily for 2-3 months, gets boring.
Exactly this! The Diablo series is the type that very few players, relatively speaking, can enjoy for extended lengths of time. The vast majority of gamers out there do not enjoy repetitive farming activities, which is exactly what the Diablo series is. You're literally doing the same things over and over and over again with the only noticeable changes occurring after major patches.
The average person posting here probably doesn't even realize that this is the case. They see a game that they enjoy and they wonder why other people don't enjoy it. They can't understand that repetition isn't fun for other people. Indeed, I'm nearly at the point where I'm ready to move on, myself. Diablo 3 isn't a game for your average gamer.
What can they do to fix this? Well, not a whole lot. The game will continue to be repetitive and more and more players are going to quit. It's the nature of the game.
And you know what the worst part is? When Blizzard makes changes to try to lessen this issue, people cry and complain about Diablo 3 going away from its roots or becoming WoW-like. Well, hey, if you want to keep playing the same boring stuff over and over again, then don't complain when people start leaving.
The real problem with D3 is that all classes and builds revolve around the ONE, same combat mechanic.
I mean... We have pull monks, and Ess of Johan. --->Get everything in the middle, and mash buttons until stuff drops on the ground. Rinse, repeat.
How come we don´t have "Spread Monks" that make a clearing in a sea of monsters? ...That´s because there is no skill that benefits from something like that. (PoE nova, anyone?)
Blizz can add ladders, new legendaries, sets, and even runes! It won´t matter as long as D3´s combat is as strategical as fishing with dynamite. IMHO
