with this new article from Jay (New rune stone system - BETA parch 13) i wanted to ask all of you what do you think about loot... As all Blizzard employees told us back in 2008. that Diablo is all
about LOOT. You certainly remember previous games where we had items (weapons, armor...),
potions, scrolls, gems, rune stones... And now we have items (just to remind you that according to Blizzard white and grey items won’t be worth picking up) and potions to drop...
Those this upsets you or you are ok with it ???
I personally liked idea to have all bunch of things to pick up !
I actually hated all the junk we had to carry in the previous games, Diablo 2 especially. Now I can stay focused on what I'm really after, the next piece of better gear to further my character's progression. I don't wanna have to worry about carrying charms around, or if I have a full tome of town portal scrolls.
well i am rly sad that the only things that we r able to loot r: weapons , armor, recipes, lore journals and healing potions.
even tho it's true we have alot more armor pieces slots than in d2, i rly liked the extra thrill when finding a higher rank of rune - which means a more powerful skill.
as much as we have imo more things to farm than in d2 - still it's a big void for me when they cut off the runes.
but i believe i will get over it and get use to the current farming table loot - cuz i trust bliz judgment on things when it comes to have an enjoyable and addictive experience.

I only ever picked up greys/whites in D2 from lvl1-10. After that there was no point. Even selling them had no purpose because of the broken currency system which makes them more viable to pick up in D3. The only reason we cared at all about runes was as currency. It propogated a broken system and for that reason I'm happy 2 see them go in that vein. They've come back in D3 new and improved and I think its a brilliant system.

How did you make runestones if you never picked up whites/grey (socketed) items?
I realise I did't address that. Even then you would pick up the item to see if it was the 4 socket flail you needed and if it wasn't u'd drop it again. Sure you could Horodric Cube the whites but those opportunities were few and far between. Not enough of a reason the impliment the same (problematic) system.
Gear drops is what it will be all about, there will be a ton of gear to find. Just going by the live streams just now there is not enough space in the inventory, it collects real fast. People say that items will not make much differant to end play now that runes don't drop but they will in a big way too.
Yes, a lot of great gear but just think about it great gear won’t drop easily.
My opinion is that with great variety of drops (gear, rune stones, potions, gems, scrolls...) it would be
much more fun to play.... Also who doesn’t like junk in stash he can chose not to pick it up.
