Really enjoying inferno a lot, already got some very good drops in whimsyshire inferno. The game is genuinely difficult and fun to play.

I love the Easter Eggs thrown into D3, especially the League of Legends Reference in the secret level.

I bought the game, but it kinda blows ass...teroids so far. Kinda regret buying it. Its fun and addicting, but I dont see it having the same staying value/power, as Diablo 2 had. The character building process is simplified, and the auction house ruins the fun of magic find...pay to win. Meh.

Honestly, the pay to win has always been there in the form of item selling websites and D2jsp. If one actually despised the Ah so much, they could just simply avoid it and farm. I know I traded for all of my stuff in Diablo 2 except for the odd cs run drop. At one point I had perhaps a very close to, if not the best Bone necromancer pvp wand in us east ladder classic. If there was Rmah at that time, I probably could have gotten quite a few dollars for it. :P The ah combined with an actually meaningful currency simply makes the hassle that trading is much easier. Might you remember what Wuw and Wug means, as you stared at fourteen things that you might need or probably didn't, or were far out of your range, etc etc? In a way, magic find might present a way that you could actually profit from the game if skilled and or lucky. Or even just intelligently playing the Auction house. While one shouldn't count on money obtained in this way, it should be interesting to see how it pans out. Seeing as Inferno can sometimes do tragic things to people, Magic finders might have more challenge against them to farm the meaningful areas. At the end of the day though, we're both entitled to our opinions, and can disagree if we so wish.

And now it's moved in as a function of the game.

I didn't find the character-building process any more simplified than in Diablo 2, which was "invest every single point into vitality, only deviating so you can get past gear restrictions." and "pick a talent. Use it and ONLY it."

I remember rerolling a Necro I had already, and the only change was he didn't have 80 strength any more. I had a Torch/Anni (If the latter gave any all stats, I forget.) I made a Breastplate Enigma and had all the Strength I needed, with exactly 0. Dumped every stat point into Vitality. The only time I didn't dump all my spare points into Vitality was when I made an energy shield sorceress, and dumped everything into mana. While there is an argument to be made for max block, I was always a caster and didn't go for it.
