^ what he said
I bought a 1.093 DPS 2 handed x-bow with +40 dex and +35 vit (yeah, shitty, but wait), and a socket (added a +70% crit dmg rune to it!!!), for 150k in a bid.
Ssearching for similar buyout options I only found stuff for 8-10 million (which I wouldn't be able to afford). Granted, it took me 4 days of searching for a good deal to find one (something like 10-20 minutes on each day), but it was worth it.
If you hold on to your gold and spend it gold wisely it buys a lot more stuff than if you spend it all in one place/item

Azidonis posted a message on I created a "poll" to get players feedback about how to improve Diablo 3You know what I think?Posted in: Diablo III General Discussion
I think that Blizzard is a very large company with many years of experience in their field of expertise. They hire "top men" to gather statistics, analyze and psychoanalyze them, and finally, to determine marketability. In short, they have all the tools necessary to figure out "what players want", including thousands of players screaming at them on the forums for YEARS about what they want from this game.
That this type of discussion continues after the release of Diablo 3 is an indication that have, indeed, failed. They can make up for it, and improve, sure. But up until this point, they have done nothing short of alienate and exasperate their player-base. They have unreasonably caused millions - yes millions - of players who have stood behind them religiously in the past, to call it quits. They are losing player loyalty, and their brand name is sinking quickly along with it.
It doesn't take a genius to figure this stuff out. Diablo 3 is pointed directly at the RMAH, and in the end only two types of players will continue playing it: those who benefit highly off the RMAH by selling on it, and those who benefit off of it by buying from it. Those in-between will rely on beating their heads against ridiculous RNG and elite packs in order to get some sense of accomplishment and recompense for their time, and eventually, they will quit.
When it comes down to it, if you have to pay $60 for items to help you in a game that cost you $60, you would spend that money more wisely just buying another game.
They like to say, "It's all about the item hunt". That is only a half-truth. The Diablo 3 game, like any game, is about getting the most amount of pleasure for the least amount of suffering. If you are able to get godly gear, then you have effectively increased your pleasure while reduced your suffering. Currently, the game is not set up that way, and unless they change it, the massive amount of die-hard fans that have willfully pounded their heads into brick walls of elites since day one for them are eventually going to quit.
They have already lost millions of WoW fans, some of whom came from the Warcraft 3 days, and simply no longer enjoy the direction of the franchise. Starcraft 2 still has some hope. Diablo 3 has some hope. It is not too late. But if they do not make the right changes soon, the Diablo franchise too can lose its luster and its namesake.
The players have been telling Blizzard for years what they want. They have made spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, videos, etc. in order to show Blizzard what they want and even prove to them how the ideas will benefit the game on the whole. Blizzard has decided instead to stick with what they want out of the game, the net result being a loss of players and loyalty as their RMAH efforts unveil their greed for the world to see.
You want AH improvements? How old is the WoW AH? Come on, don't act like this company cannot improve on it. Don't act like, with all of the other games and even mods/add-ons in the world that they couldn't have released a better AH than they did with Diablo 3. At best it was a rushed job. At worst it shows a complete lack of expertise, and worst of all, insight. In short, they know better. They could have released a wonderful AH, but they gave us a shell instead. They did the same with the story, classes, itemization, and gameplay. It's lackluster, and I daresay that it is unworthy of being called a Blizzard product.
When Blizzard merged with Activision, they really should have changed their name to something else. That way, long term fans would not continue to expect the same product expertise that they have come to appreciate Blizzard for over the years... the lack of which is showing brighter by the day, and working to ruin their legacy. -

Ryude posted a message on Magic Find Gear Swapping and RMAH Commodities Coming Soon, Gold Not Included InitiallyPosted in: News & AnnouncementsQuote from sykotic
Really guys........this is getting ridiculous.
Let us play the game.
Quit tinkering and driving away players with every single patch. You are removing EVERY chance for us to improve in a FARMING DRIVEN GAME. You nerf everything that will keep players here and not shoot them over to TL2 or GW2.
I choose Option 6: LEAVE IT ALONE
While playing diablo 3, Jay Wilson noticed that other players were playing the game differently than he envisioned. Outraged, he told his staff that there will be nerfs! -

Aldrek posted a message on Inferno Drops - ilvl Discussion & PreferencesThere needs to be more options, if you ask me. Personally I would like them to cut out, say, the bottom five ilevels (so only 55-63 drops), and increase the drop rates of all the remaining ilevels to compensate.Posted in: Diablo III General Discussion
If you just have 60-63 then you're gonna have a lot of high-dollar items flooding in, effectively lowering all the values of these items. Keeping some junk items in there, but lowering the amount of junk items, allows the really good stuff to still keep some value. Though, no matter how you do it, if you increase the drop rate of good items the value is going to drop.
I'm sure Blizzard will come up with a more elegant solution. They always seem to bring something out of nowhere that's better than anything I come up with. -

SoulQ posted a message on S.Korea have their refunds back for diablo 3Blizzard forced to offer Diablo 3 refunds in S. KoreaPosted in: Diablo III General Discussion

Related Topics – Diablo III, Blizzard, Legal, PC, Diablo Series
Server and connection problems with Diablo III in South Korea have forced Blizzard to go against its previous policy and offer refunds to dissatisfied gamers after prodding from a Korean consumer protection agency.
Blizzard announced through is Korean Diablo III site that it would start offering refunds to players lower than level 40 beginning on June 25, according to the Wall Street Journal. Disgruntled players can apply for the refunds through July 3. Blizzard also said that, from now on, it would accept returns of the game within 14 days of purchase from any player under level 20.
The move comes almost a month after Korea's Fair Trade Commission began investigating complaints that gamers unhappy with their Diablo III experience could not get refunds because of Blizzard's no-return policy. In early June, Blizzard added more servers to ease the load of an unexpectedly high number of players joining the game, apologizing in the process for the inconvenience and poor planning.

Anyway... I live by a new motto having dated her. I won't date a girl unless:
A. She is cool with my gaming.
B. She wants to game with me.
C. She is actually WORTH quitting gaming for (gotta be pretty f'ing amazing here, ladies).
I don't intend to play MMO's anymore, though, which I honestly believe were pretty detrimental to a relationship where the girl has no understanding of a gamer. But like I said, it wasn't meant to be anyway... gotta find a girl that is a bit more understanding of our addicti... um.. hobby.
