    This is utterly despicable. They can go on all night telling me they're trying to eliminate 3rd parties, giving players more options, bla bla bla, but it's absolute nonsense. I buy a game to have fun. I play the game to have fun. I work to get payed. I'm not nearly poor enough to be all excited about the thought of playing and getting payed to play. I want to play to have some fun and let go, I don't want to be thinking about shit like selling, buying, money, and economics while playing a video game. This is also terrible because people with loads of daddy's cash can outbid anyone and get whatever they want and remain unscathed in every aspect. Instead of fighting 3rd parties, Blizzard simply gave in and opted for the option that will fill their pockets with cash (surprise surprise, eh?). I don't want to go into a maze of setting up an account, see which company Blizzard is dealing with, calculating how much I should put this item up for, how much my net gain will be. I don't want to go through the trouble of proper financial management for a frikkin' video game. I know I can simply not go that way, but other people will, and agree or not, they will hold an advantage. It's utter bullshit, completely unprofessional, and absolutely and without a shadow of doubt NOT the Diablo I wanted, NOT the Diablo I was thinking about, and NOT the Diablo that I will pay 70$ or whatever to get. They're making all these decisions on behalf of the people that are actually going to play the game to the point where it's getting frustrating. Who are you to tell me that allocating stat points is not a good idea? Who are you to tell me that I shouldn't dump all my skills points into 2 skills? What the fuck is going on here?

    Damn right well said, no stat or skill points makes this hardly more that a flash game imho. Even before they eliminated skill points they were telling us our limitations with them. Its absolutely rediculous, I guess what I was trying to say before was they keep saying they are doing this and that for the "gamer" however everything they do is met with a wtf is this shit. They had introduced some really cool stuff, and now they have screwed with it so much that its ruined. All I hear when someone comments about anything is " this is not Diablo 2" instead of hating on d2 like it was a bad game or something they needed to be considering how they could live up to it. "Diablo 2 had a lot of faults" sure it did I won't deny that, however the faults were exploited by the user base, they were not intentionally put there. Blizzard is crazy if they think that the same thing is not going to happen with this game. Graphics don't make the game, instead of taking away from the game teling us what is fun and what's not we should have had more things to customize. Now what do we have to customize? The gender of our character? The color of our gear? Whether we want to use real money or not? The RGRS (really gay rune system, runewords were nice, they should have added more content in addition and made a seperate system for their skill modifiers) As far as I can think that's pretty much it. You can even change your skills if you want (not in a good way, in a noob way)(then they claim to be able to peer into the mind of us all, and say tht we will pick a certain ,set of spells and stick with them, yeah that will work, just like when they nerfed the hammerdin). IRL economics should have never been part of this game, they should have and could have fought against it but they choose the route that would benefit them.

    LOL, The AH is a joke it has ruined the game before it even came out. Gold is going to be a joke after about 6 months it will be abundant whether or not its highly valued for use in the game. So there goes that idea of using gold to get currency. Also there goes freebies and hand me downs and all the shit that made the previous installments cool. EVERYONE will sell there "lengendary items" and higher end stuff for "real cash" not to mention mosstly everything else. Also mention that it eliminates trading period, so theres no more "wow thats what im looking for""Wug for it""I got this this and this""oh i'll take that and that" <- thats gone, that was part of the fun, Just like it was eliminated in Diablo 2 by Fucking D2jsp, AH is D2jsp. And to everyone who thinks that the money thats going to Blizzard is going to benefit the game, your wrong and nieve. Blizzard doesnt care about shit but WOW, when it comes to adding content on a regular basis. They should have just left it alone, made a clause to shutdown and sue websites-webhosts who when selling virtual property owned by them (yes it was that simple I did a lot of research on it) The game is going to be region coded anyways so..... the "Asians" would not have been a problem here in the USA. Also no skill points and gear being SO important to build strength now is really gay and noobish. Anyways I hate everything they have done with the game recently, I have decided not to buy it/play it, if I change my mind it will be strictly for the story.

    So with a sincere Fuck you Blizzard (and Jay Wilson), thanks for making me wait 11 years for nothing, should've done more to keep your actual talent instead of being cheap.

    Peace, nice post btw.

    *Edit* PhrozenDragon, Sixen, ScyberDragon, and everyone else I missed, you guys are the shit thanks for all the good work, and keeping this site as awesome as its been.

    *Edit 2* Blizzard said that they did "what everyone seemed to want" with the real money buying items deal. How come they didnt listen to anything else that everyone seemed to want?(there are plenty of examples on this site as well as the other fan sites with people saying it would be cool if there were this and there were some things that a lot of people liked none of which got implemented) sounds to me like they were just after what they wanted, money.

    A petition to request a video?

    Don't be ridiculous.

    And why is that ridiculous? BTW the people who program the game dont do cinematic's and im sure that they have most if not all of the in game cinematic's are done, so I say give them some more work to do.

    Dear Mods,

    I am very displeased with Blizzard about not having a Barbarian, or a Witch Doctor trailer. Is there any way in which we could make a petition? or something along those lines to "ask" Blizzard to make these?. As it is, it really seems stupid in the first place to not have a CG trailer for all classes. But seeing as how the Barbarian is the longest running class in diablo right now I think they should at least give us a CG trailer for him/her. Please let me know if you think something like this could be organized or not.

    Thanks, Nanaki

    Once there was a gigantic bloody midget, who loved to rape Turmobil and the folks he didn't like. More specifically, the folks Turmobil liked. This contradiction was rather odd in a way if the midget actually went to the village where he spilled his seed in local cemetery, there would be undead gathering to go out for bananas. The amount of undead bananas rised every moment a pretty lady passed by swinging to sweet Jazz. All this fuss angered the god of randomness and thus he summoned minions of spam to terrorize the Blizzard main building where Diablo himself controlled his trusty lieutenant Jay Wilson.
    There, Diablo caused massive slaughtering upon the evil WoW where he took the rainbow and crushed it with super candy power and unicorn deathrays causing a massive, Olsen twin invasion to occur. This was the first time anybody had acid, mescaline, cocaine, and other stuff mixed together while playing video games.
    Farmville players tried to regain sanity by executing themselves in neat lines, but Hitler came to make them a perfect race of vampire nazi's showing the world how to cook. Slowly they started to grow even fatter Jay Wilsons copies of doom with weapons of mass confussion implemented, confusing even them.
