I think that we should be able to trade face to face, like in Diablo 2, certainly there was those of us who never found specific HRs, but we were able to trade for them. Yes, it does bring the problems of real money trading, and there is no easy fix to this. I think if they removed gold completely and used the crafting materials of gems as the currency it would reduce a lot of these problems. Gold really has no value now, once you have all the gems you need, you don't lose them. Crafting mats do have value, and we could apply their value to the legendaries that we seek.
I also think that legendary items just aren't legendary enough. I can honestly say that I find at least 3 legendaries each time I play, (two, maybe three hours a day) But almost never are they an upgrade to any of the finely tuned yellows that we've all found. A legendary item should be just that. Legendary. I have over 100 souls from disenchanting legendaries. That's not how it should be. Legendaries are starting to do a good job of making builds unique, but there is an overabundance of useless legendaries that will never be useful.
Lastly, since this is predominantly a PvE game, and there's no trade outside of the three other people in your group, there shouldn't be as many nerfs as there is. Yes, the nerfs are mainly bug fixes, no one disagrees, but other games of this genre will spotlight those OP builds and bring them to the mainstream, requiring them to find other ways to make the rest of the class abilities as strong to increase diversity. The only real example I have is Path of Exile. When an insanely overpowered combination of affixes hits the spotlight, they spotlight it for everyone and instead of punishing the people who found it by taking it away and instead add to the rest of the game to make everything else just as good. What's the problem with killing monsters too fast, or being too powerful, there's no competition, no ladder, no PvP, no AH or trading to give them an unfair advantage when it comes to farming. It takes more work, but overall would add to the feel of this game, we should feel powerful, that's what it's about. Not about challenge, it's a loot finding game, it's about killing hordes and hordes of mobs and hitting the jackpot when that one great legendary drops.
some people are never happy,
Really I have never seen a more entitled, selfish lot than some of the people posting on this.
Yes PVP has been delayed. but would you rather have it been released in a form that would give you a couple of hours enjoyment at most, with no objectives, or rewards for playing it.
or would you rather have something that has some substance behind it, some objectives, and actually gave rewards ?
as for those people who "quit the game forever" simply because the designers are taking their time and trying to do something correctly instead of some half arsed attempt which would not only cause more problems with the game, but would inflame the player base even further.
Personally I would rather wait a few more months and have something that looks and plays well rather than having something rushed out and looking like a turd, only to have it tweaked and polished over time. After all no matter how much you polish a turd, its still a turd.
Just like the rest of the fucking game, when Jay Wilson is running things, no amount of time will turn your turd into gold. I'd be happy with something. But, I said that about PvE....
It's too bad he doesn't read this. But Blizzard, you need to replace Jay. He's toxic for your company, and literally does one thing. Dissapoint us all with his 'news'. PvP was at least playable before release. (Blizzcon) There's no excuse to have kept us waiting this long. I've invested $60 dollars into promises that aren't met until after I've lost so much interest in the game that I stop checking.l

Sadly.
