Only thing im scared of pvp is that there is no specific pvp gear.. so its pay to win? Rich kids buy awesome gear from RMAH with daddys visa and then they own pvp... doesnt sound fun to me in any ways. If its that way i will skip the pvp.. any thoughts?
It's not pay to win, it never has been. I'm not going to do the whole "If you don't like the game go play something else blah blah blah" and all that crap. All there really is to it is just a bit of patience and knowing how to actually use the auction house.
There's no such thing as pay to win, if you don't want to buy something expensive, guess what? you don't have to! There's the exact same gear on the auction house at lower prices, all you have to do is look for it. You don't have to use the RMAH, so that rules out the "using daddy's credit card" saying that whiner's use.
If there were PvP specific gear wouldn't there be the same "problem" of "pay to win"? People putting up really good gear for high prices?
Please, don't come in jumping to conclusions that because there's no PvP specific gear that it's pay to win. It's really annoying.
In response to my thoughts on there being no specific gear! I think it's great, means I don't have to feel that I need to PvE to be able to destroy at PvP. By that I mean having to obtain the gear through drops or however they would have made us get it.

Not that I care for PVP, but Blizzard failed to deliver it in a timely manner. Add that to the ever growing, great, stinking pile of Diablo 3 failures, and what we have is probably the biggest gaming disappointment of 2012. Relatively speaking, of course. The game isn't all bad, it's just that the expectations were enormous.
You never know, you may wake up one morning and BAM PvP patch has arrived (of course this day would have to be a Wednesday for the maintenance, and we'll probably know because they'd tell us.)
But who knows, it'd be interesting to see how pvp balances out, especially with the stat bonuses from paragon leveling and the crazy amounts of gear people have nowadays, and the crazy amount of people who don't have outrageous gear.
What is the purpose? Farm gear to sell so you get gold and buy gear that you later use to ... uh.. farm gear? And then what? I've killed Diablo a number of times already. Killing the same "bosses" over and over isn't my idea of having fun. I guess Blizzard's definition of having fun is different from mine these days.
Uhhh...... welcome to the Diablo franchise?
