my guess is they'll make it a $$ for gold model. then let people spend the gold on items. and you'll of course be free to grind out 5$ of gold over 10 or so hours of straight playing.

that will lead to people spending gold to buy soulbound items and prevent 3rd party shit.

blizz somehow thinks that hack and slash is what made the game popular. there was an idiot in the strat/guides section who was equally stupid, claimed the economy wasn't what made d2 popular and claimed people liked to for the pvm repetitive aspects. its all economy, its all wealth acquisition, etc. that's what people want.

Yes, yes, and more yes.

This is why I log into every D2 ladder reset. I like to play HC and farm the shit out of the game and amass wealth and sell most my shit for FG that I ultimately horde because i have a problem.
After about 3 weeks I liquidate my gear, buy a funny toon to hostile random people and fuck around for a few days until I die. Last year I would hostile baal games with a java and try and kill people in the throne room by firing LF's and guided arrows. Got a couple people that I asusme were AFK in the throne room.

They don't need to provide any guided trade for a traditional diablo game like D2/D3. That should be left up to the players/third party sites as we've already bought the $60.00 box and will buy subsequent expansions/DLCs.

I didn't mind the auction house that much, although i really didn't use it too much aside from selling gear for real $$$. I never played the flip game BUT people liked doing that. Blizzard should have left the AH as is, maybe lower the % they take off the top.

Blizzard HAS TO monetize immortal someway because it's a freemium piece of shit. They'll paywall the fuck out of players with resources/crafting/instance money ETC. This isn't going to be your traditional D2/D3 where you can access all game modes at any time and grind away. They'll have major events require some time of admittance currency that's hard to come by but conveniently accessible with real $$$. Or rare crafting mats to juice up your stupid axe, ETC.

I imagine they'll have energy timers that'll force players to log on at certian times to claim the free energy. It'll be disgusting..... I can't wait.

Lol well clearly you are more knowledgeable that actiblizzard.

These are people who made a catastrophic failure of a “diablo” game and yet people still play it.

Do you really believe that this app will fail?...
