Diablo 2's items were 10xs better. BD already copys their system so why not just go the whole 9 yards instead of a watered down version of it. In D2 you were always on the lookout for good treasure and you never knew if a monster would drop a godly rare item. In BD everything past act 2 was a waste of time to even look out. The itmes bought in the battelfields were 2x's better than anything I found in a treasure chest or slain monster.
