I actually recently posted concerning pickup radii here, and I highly recommend checking out that particular thread.
In short: we like that there are different itemization choices, and that players often have to weigh their options when comparing gear in order to be the most efficient, to have the greatest DPS, to find the best loot, etc. We do appreciate the feedback, though! (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
Will Invulnerable Minions Ever Return?
We don’t have any current plans for the Invulnerable affix to rear its head and return. We felt it was a frustrating affix for many players, and that it was out of line with the other affixes, which is why we removed it. In a similar way, we feel that the Reflects Damage affix isn’t quite where we want it to be, which is why we’re looking intomaking some adjustments to the mechanics of how it works, as well as fixing a related bug.

Best Songs While Playing Diablo?
It depends greatly on my mood and what hero I'm playing, but lately I find myself playing a lot of Nightwish, Amethystium, E.S. Posthumus, Two Steps from Hell, movie soundtracks (such as the work of James Newton-Howard, Hans Zimmer, and Danny Elfman), and Imagine Dragons when I play Diablo III.

Curse Weekly Roundup
Here is this week's Curse Weekly Roundup bringing you the latest in video games.
and thanks to diablofanscom for the giveaway, nice move, much appreciate
I remember when I first saw that damned date. It took a bit before I realized it was in MM/DD/YY format... my mind was blocking that 2013 with all the excitement D:
Even with no holiday patch coming in, it give the devs more time to refine any bits of the patch that may cause problems on patch day.
GJ Devs.
i hope that one day will be some pvp .... and also in the giveaway XD
I sort of hope the invulnerable minions return, they were annoying but manageable. Although it's probably better off, get the right affixes and monster and you're going to have a bad time.
Also, no matter how much we all hated invulnerable minions, you can't deny the great satisfaction of watching all of the mobs explode into oblivion when they died. I will miss them only for that reason.
Not too mention OUR time
I HATE in-game holidays with "exclusive" rewards! Holidays should be spent with the family, not grinding away for some mount or title!
Please focus on PVP!!!
By the way... this is a relevant post lol
Even worst then just a normal treat, it will be Bacon flavored, heard they love those like Diablo fans love legendaries.
Like u gonna play D3 all this time srsly
*evil laugh*
