I'm sorry but your reasons is pretty lame. Always on drm that punishes you is way worse than any stunt that EA and Ubisoft has ever tried. And avoiding the AH because needing gear isn't my point. I never once said the AH was needed in my post. I'm saying that browsing the AH makes that awesome gear you just found seem weak. It is the main reason why I believe it shouldn't be in this type of game. It is all about gear and the fun is seeing what you can find. Part of that experience is weaken by the realization of what is out there. And with the amount of players and what appears first in the AH it gives off the impression that everyone is getting leet gear and all your finding is crap even though it is actually useful if the players would get their minds off the AH and focus more on the actually game they are playing. Ignoring it all together in my opinion is something that takes a great amount of effort. Unlike the WoW AH that we could run by and never see. Diablo's appears there at the login screen before we even get to the game we see it.
