i find it funny that the forums are flooding lately with " ITEMS FOR SALE, and LOOK AT THESE ITEMS! and selling these rares!" since there is an AUCTION HOUSE. Use the damn auction house people thats why its there lol. just my opinion haha
The funny thing is that the way Blizzard implemented the AH and the RMAH (and battle net) are severely flawed.
First, the AH is a gold sink and has a limit, leading to people trading item for item/gold on forum.
Second, the way games are now created and joined, makes it very difficult for you to create games with the intent on trading items. You have to add soembody to your friends list to trade for a specific item.
Third, you can't get your real money back from blizzard when you use the real money auction house. Thus, people will still trade on forums, for real money. With paypal being the way it is, it will be very easy for people to securely trade items for $$, or $$ for items. Ain't no way in hell I'm giving blizzard $$ just to buy items in game, when I can use that money offline for better items. And also sell my items offline for the cash.
Fourth, bring back the cow level, get rid of whimsyshire you butthurt devs.
White items are useless, waste time when accidentally picked up
magic items are inconsistent. Find socketed ring in normal act 2, lvl 15 required. Find same exacty ring in nightmare act 4, lvl 43 requirement...wtf?
Played through normal and nightmare twice on two different character (as well as farmingn ormal and nightmare diablo izual and diablo many times). Not a single unique item (let's face it, they are unique, not legendary). Didn't find a legendary until third playthrough in act 3 normal. (I can understand high level uniques being very difficult to find, but the low level unique drop rates are a sad joke)
Useless low level uniques ("legendaries")
Any legendary under level 50 is USELESS unless it has a socket. Due to gems not being level restriced, you just need to find socketed items and put top-tier gems in the, My barbarian was using a socketed dagger with a radient ruby for the first 3 acts, until i crafted a bastard sword with a socket...
Endgame is silly
Named mobs have ridiculous amounts of health. Not so much a challenge to kill them, more of a grind.
Invulnerable mobs that are vampiric... I hate you.
Would be much better if it depended on skill and not so much on how long you can play keep away...
Experience sharing?
Was running normal solo (at lvl 20) when a friend (level 50) joined. He rushed me through, and I got more xp per kill than when I was solo... Don't know if it was a bug, but it was stupid...
Whimsyshire
Feels like the developers got butthurt when people complained, and this was their childish revenge.
It would be much better if they use the already designed grasslands and rainbows to make it. Use Diablo 3 style graphics for making unicorns and whatnot, and it could be really f'n cool. Bloody cuddlebears, gory unicorns, and add some undead cows...
C'mon devs... c'mon.
A few more things to add to the list:
Izual on nightmare dropping normal plans for staff of herding... wtf?
Crazy lag, getting hit from across the map...
In-game skill descriptions are dead wrong about distances. One barbarian skill claming something like 22 yards distance for damage... Barely goes 2 yards. How the hell did the deveopers mess that up? It's not just a type either, every skill that lists a distance for something is off by a factor of at least 10...
I really hope there will be an expansion, and there are plenty of possibilites.
Seeing in the end cinematic that the black soulstone wasn't actually destroyed, it's very possible for the prime evils to come back. I'm thinking that even if it was destroyed the souls wouldn't be destoryed as was told by Adrai, for two reasons:
-Why woudln't they have destroyed the soulstone that baal was in when they imprisoned him?
-Why would Adria tell us something that could ruin her plans?
Also, because Adria escaped after she used Leah (poor leah) as a sacrifice for Diablo, she will probably try to get the black soulstone and ressurect Diablo (and possibly other prime evils) again.
finished it in 5 hours without rushing, doing side exploration & looting barrels ect
You're either blatantly lying, or you have no idea what "without rushing" and "doing side exploration" means...
I think I got in 19 hours before my first diablo kill. And there are parts where I skipped through some content because I just wanted to get through it faster.
So, upload screenshot proof that you've beaten diablo and that you only have 5 hours, ot gtfo... 'Ya fuckin troll...
Obviously not... But from my experience, it's a surpsiingly high drop rate (from Izual). I've killed izuall 5 times, and gotten the plans twice... Now I have useless plans in my stash, because they are account bound...
The drop the additional plans on the ground and walk away....
Blizzard clearely tool 'too colorfull' to the max XD
And that's why I think a lot of people will hate this secret level rather than just dislike it. It would have been more acceptable if it were in normal Diablo 3 graphics (like the cow level was in normal diablo 2 graphics). But nooooooooo. They had to go and ruin it with ridiculous graphics...
Do we know where the plans drop yet? In my multiplayer game a friend got it from Izual, so is it a safe assumption to be rare from bosses? or just rare from act IV?
I also got the plans from izual.
I did not, It is not 100% drop.

A few more things to add to the list:I hope you're wrong... ):
I mean, I'd at least like to be able to add 1 socket to an item.

Interesting...
I think a lot of fans will be disappointed if this is a replacement for a cow level. Very disappointed.
I also got the plans from izual.
It's a randon spawn. I started a new game 3 times and found it, the other times the fireplace was empty.
