Quote fromAlright I just thought that people had them online somewhere. Also I'm just pointing out that the search function is very hard to use for those of us who are colourblind.
For christ's sake. It's obvious you're that other guy who made 3 threads or whatever about being colorblind. You're a mediocre troll at best, get out. Trolls are supposed to be funny.

That's actually an excellent characterization.

I never said it should be noob unfriendly. Italofoca used Diablo 2's supposed "noob unfriendliness" as an argument against it; I simply replied that noob friendliness is an irrelevant quality and making judgements about a game based on that quality is foolish.
Most players will remain noobs, perpetually, throughout the time they play even slightly complicated games. Those players are irrelevant and I didn't even include them in my analysis. As for the real players, well they won't be noobs for very long, so how the steep the learning curve is means very little to them.

I do hope you realize that our post does nothing to refute mine. I wasn't commenting on how easy it is or isn't to get gold in either game. My point was about the worth of gold in one game relative to that in the other.
Also, noob unfriendly isn't a negative to me.

Sure Mr. Bush, you can put everyone under unconstitutional surveillance! It's not like privacy is a fundamental right.

Maybe some players who think they're good do things like that. I only took pleasure in taunting people 85+ with awesome gear who still sucked ass because of their shitty build/charms. Guess we won't have that wonderful luxury anymore now that everyone gets their build free though =P.

Argue against my points logically or don't argue at all. I haven't forgotten that post you made calling everyone against the art design "goths who hate color". By the way, your second sentence literally makes no sense at all.

Are you really this retarded? Are you completely incapable of understanding, let alone responding, to an argument? Do you shout out random catchphrases like "everyone had an enigma" in the hopes that they will apply?
You do realize this is the third time I've made my point. I regret apologizing to you at all, Miss teen South Carolina.
As for you Mattheo, I'm not ignoring you. I've got finals and don't have time for a serious response to your post right now.

As far as trading, that still doesn't explainwhy the types of people I mentioned want to get better gear. As I said before: "getting pleasure purely from improvement in a video game? Come--the fuck--on. There's absolutely no point in improving and reaching the pinnacle of power if you can't compare yourself to others (favorably, I might add) in PvP."

Arguments against manual stats say that there was a best way to allocate stats, and that this made them useless as customization parameters.
What I'm saying is that for any given situation and class, there will be a best combination of gear, skills, and runes. In appplying the same, flawed argument to these parameters, one would have to conclude that they are useless and should be removed from the game as well. This would make Diablo 3 a game purely of mouseclicking skill.

Oh please, don't try to worm out of it. You didn't reply to my main point because you didn't even understand it, which is hilarious to me. All you did was restate what you thought was my point. Let me remind you:
That isn't my point. At least dimebog has brains enough to comprehend my point and respond.

The definition of irony. You didn't even understand my retardedly dumbed down version, so I really have nothing else to say to you. You literally completely missed my point. The only thing you even understood was that I was against auto-stats. Wow.
As for dimebog, his entire argument is based on the post-1.09 Diablo 2, a D2 that is irrelevant and that everyone with any brains agrees is total garbage. But I've already been over that, yet everyone keeps whining about "151 pts in str rest in vit" and "enigma hoto wtfbbq". Newsflash: 1.10 and beyond are fucking trash, and all of your arguments are based on its failures. Try to make the same argument with earlier versions of Diablo 2 and you'll fail.
But it's easier to say "Oh you just dumped everything into vit anyway" and "Enigma was the only item in Diablo 2" over, and over, and over..

Baby version: Diablo 3 PvM is going to be nothing more than an item vending machine after the 5th time through it. PvP is all that matters in the long run.
For any class matchup in PvP, there is going to be a best way to gear yourself and have your skills/runes distributed. This is a fact. There will be a best way.
Storytime: There was one, best, way to distribute your stats for each class, and you auto-stat people didn't like that--not one bit! I feel like I should do a Dr. Seuss thing here. Anyway, distributing your stats differently caused you to be less effective.
Naptime tale: You didn't like that there was a best way to distribute your stats--not at all! You wanted stats removed from the game, since you would be forced to distribute them a certain way to be the best. But then you realized that by that logic, items, skills, and runes shouldn't be in the game either!
Good morning baby sunshine: And then you realized that if Blizzard removed everything from the game, all that would be left to distinguish you from another was your skill at clicking the mouse! And you figured you ought to play a RTS or FPS if you didn't want any customization. Customization all right, because you had realized that your arguments against manual stats left no room for any customization at all. So you stopped making them, and all was well in the land of babies who can't read.
The end.
