They're idiots then.


Yeah, that must be it! /boggle

Must be, because Diablo 3 is a whole lot more fun now with its smarter loot system than it used to be. The press seems to agree, and loads of people have returned and/or are still playing, so I'm not sure how the transition can be labeled as "ruining the game". Ruined for someone with overly particular tastes, maybe. Maybe you should have played the game both ways before speculating about the smart loot system?

I just read a complaint on the D:OS Steam forum where someone was unable to craft a bow because (across the entire game) they only ever acquired one of the two sinews they needed. Because of that they spent most of the game with a level 4 bow before obtaining an upgrade.

Let's talk about how completely awesome random treasure tables are some more! rolleyes I say this after visiting the Library in Cyseal, getting permission to borrow books, and finding every single bookcase *empty*. Wheee! Are we having fun with random loot yet?
