A few ideas of how to save D3

[Ruvanal]

People can sit here and argue with me all they want - but being 2 shotted and not being able to do ANYTHING about it is NOT fun. Personally, I think they should just remove Inferno altogether and keep hell mode as the cap. Hell is certainly more than challenging enough, even to the point that some people will probably be like "fuck this", but getting good enough gear makes it playable. Inferno is just pointless.

From the first time I saw them advertising an Inferno mode for the game, I have seen them spinning the difficulties as:
Normal, Nightmare and Hell modes as the basis of the game progression as in previous version and Hell mode as the normal end point for the majority (90+%) of all the players.
Inferno mode as an optional difficulty for the players that want to be LEET players. I also interpreted their replies as the players going there were also going to need a strong amount of masochism to get through it.

Seems like you butted into their intended and to me advertised design of Inferno.

And no, I not at the point of Inferno content and may not try pushing very far into it when I get there. Depends on what it is like for some of my characters. Off hand I can think of better ways of making an engaging game based off of a highly evolved game of Hack! Oh, wait I have played more entertaining versions of advanced Hack! prior to D1 coming out...
