So who believed that RMAH was going to make prices drop again?

Good thing this game was never really competive however for i'm less inclined to play diablo 3 now with this coming up, while it first i though to be indifferent, considering how this will effect gold AH prices aswel if some big gold sellers branches jump on this they could pretty much start artificially controlling prices to keep the gold to real life currency ratio as high as possible.

What generally screws over gold AH prices, even if we exclude the theory of gold sellers investing in that market and the RMAH becomes very populair to the most populair method you won't be getting any upgrades at reasonable prices.

The prices are going to drop, but not on the very first day.

People, relaaaaaaaaax. It's a, wait for it, STRESS test!

Cauldron of Jordan

Shortly after you begin your adventure, you’ll be provided with a useful little artifact: the Cauldron of Jordan. The cauldron allows you to skip trekking back to town when the time comes to sell your loot.


Posted 19/01/2012:

So we've decided to remove the Cauldron of Jordan and Nephalem Cube. They were implemented to allow for salvaging and selling items when there was no quick and easy way to return to town. Now that the Stone of Recall exists, we found that keeping the Cauldron and Cube in the game detracted from the benefits of returning to town to sell items, salvage, craft, and interact with the townsfolk. It’s a good idea to break up combat so that players have a moment to evaluate their gear and crafting options before venturing back out.

Is it me, or is this going backwards? I really don't understand these choices.

A hidden Diablo from Diablo 1 in the beta, perhaps?

Isn't it just an example on how Blizzard work on stuff they are not quite happy with? He says at the start that these examples didn't make the cut.

Said to once be a trusted Defender of Sanctuary, Jakob Binkles was a renowned General at Fort Gorthlian. Gorthlian was a station for travellers and merchants at the borders of the dense jungles of Teganze. It was like so many other settlements of its kind. But it was also a place for mercenaries, thieves and murderers alike.

One day a witch doctor came to the fort. Tired, worn out and battle scared, he went to the Inn and stood in an corner by himself. He shook and drank from a strange potion constantly. Innkeeper Marshfield later told, that he seemed...evil somehow. His eyes we're dead and hollow, and he keept mumbling words that no man could understand. He seemed aggressive and nervous, and the stench on him were almost unbearable.

"My god, that man really scares the customers. Can't we do something about him?" barmaid Josie whispered to Marshfield.

"I don't know. He really scares me too. Go fetch one of the guards." Marshfield whispered back.

Josie left quietly, without looking at the witch doctor. But he looked at her. He knew what was about to happen. He clutched his blowpipe with his dirty hand and his eyes blazed with anger. A minute later a guard entered the Inn. Josie was behind him, cowering. It went dead silent, and some of the customers even left the establishment, almost crawling against the walls.

"You there! Follow me." the guard said firmly and pointed at the witch doctor. No reaction. The witch doctor grinned and kept mumbling words.

"I said, follow me!" The guard drew his sword and pointed it at the witch doctor. The grin froze on the witch doctors face. It went from a grin to an angry face, filled with rage. Slowly he pulled a dart from his belt and put it in his blowpipe.

"Hey! Stop that!" Put that thing down or I will run you through!" the guard shouted nervously. Josie whimpered and ran behind the bar. Marshfield held her and they both lowered themselves further behind the bar.

The witch doctor raised the blowpipe and blew the dart right at the guard. It hit him in the throat. The guard let out a scream and fell to the ground, shaking and foaming at the mouth. His body spasmed a few seconds before it went limb. He was dead. The witch doctor smiled again.

"GUARDS!" Marshfield screamed, hoping that General Binkles would respond. And he did. He came rushing in, sword drawn and shield ready.

"Watch out for that witch doctor!" Marshfield screamed. Binkles reaction was perfect as always. As a dart came flying through the air, he raised his shield and blocked it. He then charged over a table, towards the witch doctor. But the witch doctor was already ahead of him. He began chanting some strange words. A green, sharp light shone from his right hand, and it kept getting brighter and brighter. Binkles shield hit the witch doctor, knocking him down and interrupting his chanting. They both crashed to the ground, tables and chairs tumbling down with them. Glasses shattered everywhere. But the witch doctor was fast on his feet again. Binkels swung at him with his sword, cutting his left foot clean of. The shriek from the witch doctor was terrifying and loud, and as he fell to the ground, almost black blood poured out on the dirty floor. General Binkles was on his feet again and slowly moved towards the witch doctor, who now was crawling away from him, cursing.

"Fools! You do not know what I have seen! The horrors I have witnessed. I curse you all. I curse you, General!" he shrieked. Once again, he started chanting, and the green light from his hand was even brighter this time. So bright, that it blinded everyone in the room. A ray of green light shot from his hand, directly at Binkles. It hit him in the chest and Bikles froze in his place. Sword and shield fell to the ground with a loud crash. Binkles eyes went blank and h fell to his knees. Suddenly, his body started to shake and the worst pain one could imagine filled his entire body. His screams began to change pitch and his voice became thinner and thinner. His whole body began transforming. After a few seconds, the screams were gone. His clothes and armor were lying on the floor in a pile. Suddenly, a large frog crawled out from underneath the pile of clothes. It was orange with yellow spot all over. It was quite an unusual looking frog, one would say.

The witch doctor laughed manically. But it was too late for him. His blood loss was too severe, and he slowly died on the floor, mumbling the words finally peace...finally peace... Josie and Marshfield stood up once again. They saw the horrors of what had happened.

"What happened to Binkles? What kind of voodoo is this? Oh no..." Josie cried. Marshfield watched at the carnage that taken place.

"I don't know, Josie. I don't know." he said softly. He looked at the frog, then at the dead witch doctor. "I guess we'll never know. Come girl, help me remove his body."

"What about Binkles? What about the...frog?" she sniffled. But the frog was already gone. Where to no one knows for sure, but legends tell that it has been seen around for ages.

This was how the events was written down by Innkeeper Marshfield of Fort Gorthlian.

Edited to contain all my contributions:

Sorry. Can't help myself.

Absolutely last one!

I think that pretty much sums up what fans of Diablo III has been doing.
