Blizzard vs. Real Money Trading (RMT)

[RTM]

I can't help but think that even with RMT (maybe because of it?), Diablo III will be in a better economic situation than Diablo II where gold was more or less worthless and currency was based on either massively duped items or imaginary currency on a 3rd-party website. That's not a high standard I suppose, considering the experience Blizzard has racked up with WoW over the last 10 years.

I think ultimately it's going to have to be one of those things where you just wait and see how it all pans out.

I do find it funny that they took down their WoW page on gold buying right before the announcement though. More of a funny-sad than funny-haha.
