and yay, Witch Doctor pets looking one step closer to viable with that mojo they show... supporting ranged Barbs and Melee wizards is sweet too, might as-well reverse the attack speed nerf if they're adding all this overpowered stuff

Wow I was lucky today, it's sooo rare for me to get anything that is even worth selling at all (worth selling to me means that it will sell at all for over like 10-20k)
How much do you guys think that dagger is worth? Similar items are listed for a TON but there's no bids and I don't think anyone is buying them for that price.

BUT, very soon we're back on the treadmill again... BELIEVE it. their GOAL is still RMAH profitability. they are just trying to drive traffic back into the game so there is even the slightest chance of revitalizing the RMAH...
see pass all the gold glitter they are putting in your face and realize this is just a phase to get people back. once that phase is over, the crap that is D3 will show its face again... remember what is NOT going to benefit the RMAH will NOT be staying in the game... they will make it so that inferno is EASIER then normal/nightmare on the 1st week after 1.0.4... then they'll come back and say oh we went too far and the nerf bat will be swinging again..
try not to be the 3 year old with a ice cream bar dangling in front of his face and start thinking like an adult again please

My honest opinion is that 1.04 is what the D3 should have been at the release date. Everything from launch until now has simply been an open beta.

I think 1.04 is a good step in the right direction but its not a big step and it won't mean much unless they KEEP stepping in this direction.

I vaguely remember D2 being quite broken when it was first released (it has been a while and my memory has not improved with age) as well as the influx of hacked items in public games. Personally, the rampant hacking and bots did not affect me as I only played with friends in private Closed games. However, the game was still FUN for me it all its broken glory, because Diablo has always been about mass slaughtering demons from Hell. Bosses were also coded to be able be able to drop certain items eventually, so players knew they would be rewarded eventually for their efforts. A good example for instance, I could farm NM Andariel enough times and eventually get a SoJ. The itemization and lack of quality boss drops makes this all but impossible in D3. I can kill the Butcher as many times as I want and the odds of me getting ANYTHING worthwhile is very, very slim. I suppose what I am trying to say was even from the start, D2 was very fun for me. I just never really felt the same way about D3. Maybe I have grown older and have become more cynical in my older age, but D3 seemed very unpolished and crappy after Act 1 for me. I have more than expressed my negative views already, so I am going to stop here about this topic and simply continue helping other people and wait until 1.0.4 to see if D3 is still worth my time.
