Yeah, when they showed off the "everything is now BoA" it pretty much confirmed their long term vision of the game; it's a console game you play, you beat, and you put away. There is nothing to do w/ any of this gear. There are no Raids, there is no PvP ladder, there isn't even a trading economy. At least when the RMAH was around, there was financial incentive to keep the game fresh, to add new content and to keep stringing people along. This, this is a game you trade in at Gamestop for Assassin's Creed IV. Except you can't do that on PC.
Act V looks awesome. I also really love adventure mode, the bounties, and new difficulty system/level scaling.
As far as itemization is concerned I'm reserving judgment for a few more major builds. I still think BoE is a better solution than BoA. However, it appears Blizzard wants to bind items to accounts now which I don't 100% support but don't 100% not support. I'm in the middle. As far as the stats on items, I think there could be a little improvement.
Yes, RoS is terrible because it doesn't have raiding.
Jesus Christ, DiabloFans... what have you turned into?
I stand by my theory that this game received such harsh criticism partly because half the people that bought it thought it was WoW with a different camera angle.

It doesn't have any reason to gear up other than gearing up. That's not sustainable. There's no PvP, and now, there's no trading economy. There's no goal, PvE or PvP wise, and therefore, you may as well buy the console version so you can trade it in for Gamestop credit.

After watching the comments on a few twitches I am not that surprised, seems 99% of posters seems a bit daft. Most common question for 2 days has been what is PH?
Only one really worth watching has been Jaetch so far and Kripp to some extent, he isn't that bad when he is just chilling at least he doesn't keep screaming like some others. Some play the crusader with bugged beam and abuse the horse and speeds around like a WW barb on steroids, not very interesting to watch especially since he seems to think it is intended. Another bitched and moaned for 10 mins when he found a bug that destroyed an item.
Was a bit fun to see how fast people left them as soon as people like Jaetch and Kripp started, really showed that only reason they had so many viewers was they had no competition.
If the bugged Hammer of Dawn and Flaming Horse are what works the best, why wouldn't he think it's intended? PermaZerk and PermaArchon weren't considered intended?
I think there should be Trading severs that allow more than 4 players, and if you spam you get kicked out and banned for an hour.
A majority of the time in D2 I played in my own game with a few friends tagging a long while they were on, I didn't need 8 others, so the fact it was reduced to 4 doesn't bother me all that much, I only joined 8 player games to level faster.
Only thing I would like to know is if there would be a point in which we will outgear the game?? The game seems fun but if we can reach a point in which we will one shot everything just like before, I'll be really dissapointed.

Well, with infinite paragon, it's guaranteed. It'll take a long time to get there, though.

WotB and Archon weren't bugged.
Trail of Cinders was bugged.
You know what "bugged" means, right?
