Asto Diablo2: you are pretty mistaken, diablo2 was THE game of this genre till now, and if you were good at it, which was EXTREMELY hard, u would get elite items that very very few could ever get in touch with, or create chars that were beyond divine, for pvp for instance. And not the mention the markettrading that went on FOR REAL !!! there were even people selling these so called ultra rare items for real money; can you belief that ?? just to demonstrate how furiously they were wanted.
This paragraph makes Jesus kill innocent kittens, makes a benevolent saint murder newborn babies, makes a happy man in a fine autumn morning slit his wrist, and makes dragons turn vegetarians. All in the name of lost faith in humanity.
It, most of all, made me laugh my head off. And I died. I'm typing this from the afterlife.
For real inter-player economy, kindly venture into the Bazaar zone in EverQuest. Witness as people try to cut each other's price and spam their heads off in hope to sell their items. Behold as people quarrel over phat lewtz and guilds break because of this. Gape at how much time you have to devote to this game to attend, or host, a raid in order to get said phat lewtz (gather 35 players, spend at least five hours for preparation alone). Hacking rarely happens, and if you do try, your account gets suspended. Most of the time, hacking is impossible. Oh -- and do a search on EBay. Count the number of EQ accounts for sale.
Diablo, in the aspects that you have selected to mention in order to make yourself look "elite" or "skilled", is a sad joke. Thanks for the laugh, though.
