"They are adding a whole bunch of new loot technology so they can do some "crazy stuff" with legendaries"
This sounds so eerily familiar to what has been said more than a few times on the WoW front with this 'new technology that allows us to do stuff we never could do before in the game!' spiel that it makes me yawn. Again, so much vagueness being used that it's getting very old Mr. Wilson. At this point, either start giving the playerbase some specific examples of what this 'new technology' is and examples of the Legendary items it allows you to 'create', or don't say anything at all and stop trying to PR spin. I think at this point we've gotten past that stage and this continued vagueness is just going to be pushing more and more people away from the game.
As far as 'legitimizing PvP in Diablo III'...well...all I can say to this is: "Hello homogenization, class nerfs for all, items to continue to be crappy in terms of stats, and more staleness that plagues the game." ...I'm sorry to sound like such a huge Negative Nancy, but given the past track record of this game and others (specifically WoW) in Blizzard's lineup of examples to draw from...it's not looking good for Diablo III.
I noticed that he used the word refurbished, when talking about the legendary items. Is there hope that they might modify the existing items as well as buffing the new ones?
After reading about Blood 2, I'm very seriously considering selling all my gear and using the balance to buy the next couple of SC2 expansions as they come out.
D3 sounds like it won't ever get fixed or brought up to the level it should have been.

They have already stated they will not be updating existing items.
Besides, why update existing items when the new shiny ones will make you want to use the RMAH to upgrade from old to new?
Haha, right? I was pretty good this time. However... I also got back into Magic the Gathering after 15+ years of not playing it. So yeah, my gaming hobbies got me despite that. :/
HAHA. Its been a little less time for me (maybe 4-5 years) but just last month due to my girl I got back into MTG as well..and spent wayyy to much money =/
