wait wat?

shipped it had the auction house, had no BTA items, and had actual gameplay in acts.

now it's all events, not even a real game, all BTA items, no AH. and you get to max level crazy fast then spend 3 years mfing just to try and find an upgrade, that u also cant resell to anyone.

the game isnt worth playing imo. what do you do in game? just kill rifts and collect crafting mats to get a 1 in 10,000 chance to craft an ammy with 1 better stat?

i remember when mfing was really fun, selling unids, selling items for $$. etc.

release with RMAH was the peak of the game. blizzard just got scared of holding that much money.

Removing the "Bind To Account" feature would fix 50% of diablo 3's problems

also RMAH was awesome

"This isn't 15 years ago, when you could call about your account being blocked/banned. A lot of services have been optimized to be handled by experienced web CS people, which is why BlizzCS on Twitter is available Monday-Sunday. Not 24/7, but certainly regular hours and emergency situations.

This is speculation, but it looks like the authentication server pitched over. Whether by DDoS or other means (simple failure, old age, etc.), we'll never know. I could ask, though.

I mean I didn't get to far into diablo 3 in the first 1 year of the game being released (I played it casually basically) so you'd probably have a better idea of the game back then than I do.

Back then I was playing World Of Warcraft more (and first person shooters - but mostly wow at the time).

I played wow mostly in vanilla then through these expansions

The Burning Crusade January 2007
Wrath of the Lich King November 2008
Cataclysm December 2010

I kind of gave up when panda came out because they nerfed rogues so badly (I had a high end priest and high end rogue most of my play in WOW)

Well I just hope they bring back BOE items and an auction house in diablo 4

That's all I really want.

If Diablo 4 is built like that for 3-4 years I'll be happy

then they can screw it up somehow (it's blizzard so I'm sure they'll find a way)
