So I thought the newest patch added more loot to the treasure goblins? Every time I've killed them, they drop less loot (used to be 2-3 blues, now 1 blue). What gives?

Yeah I noticed the same thing. They drop a lot worse loot than before. Though, on my last barbarian run, he did drop 3 blues. Resplendant chests are only dropping 2 blues, instead of 4, too though.
its beta mate, also loot is random, ok the gold pygmys (blizz stole from golden axe) do usually drop some blues, they might have been stealth nerfed
They were stolen from Golden Axe but have been used in many games since. You can't really blame Blizz for a popular RPG mechanic that has gained a lot of attention. Off the top of my head I can only remember Castlevania right now, but I'm pretty sure I've seen it in a few other places as well.
Just for the record it was implemented pretty bad in Castlevania. Too scripted.
To OP: Maybe by "more good loot and less junk" Blizz meant "almost no loot at all". :>
Oh wow, Golden Axe... that brings me back... god damn I'm so old. Anywhoo. There's another game in my mind that has the same mechanic, but I can't think of the name... but lots of arcade games (do they still have arcade games?) had that. Possibly and/or probably before Golden Axe. Even though Golden Axe is an arcade game (I played it on the Genesis).

I believe they brought overall loot drops down again. It was brought down in patch 13, then suddenly blues were dropping like candy in patch 14, now it feels like blues are a little less common come patch 15. So, comparatively, the goblins drop more loot to other monsters around them.
I'm pretty sure patch 14's rain of blues off everything wasn't intended.

Yeah. Really strange O.o

edit: Ah, also Dungeon Siege 2.
Ha. Bagstone.
More loot does not equal better loot... Could just be that instead of 3 crappy items, they drop 1 less-crappy item : )

I remember thinking that but when I checked the item it was actually worse than all the blue's I had in my inventory (it was a 3-5dps 1 hander).

Wow, I need some of that luck. I STILL haven't had a rare drop outside of LK.
You mean SK I have made this mistake as well.
