Anyone still playing? This latest patch really polished the game quite a bit!
I haven't played for some weeks - since they released a patch that basically made all the item drops useless for the character being played on in order to support and encourage the "marketplace" concept (introduce real money into the system and it goes to shit fast)
The way the game was so intimately tied into having to use the marketplace in order to get any decent equipment turned me off.
I saw the marketplace as cheating in the first instance , and the item drops external to it were ****ing dreadful vs ones character level and progression.
I buy a single player ****ing game and I don't want to have to be tied into some bullshit online commodity trading exercise in order to progress.
Sorry about the language , but blizzard really ****ed up badly.
