Diablo 3 is fundamentally broken

[Bolty]

Also, Bolty, I see you're jumping on the "you haven't seen Act 2 Inferno, you don't know what you're talking about" bandwagon.

You haven't seen Act 2 Inferno. You don't know, and will never know (thanks to the nerfs), what you're talking about. And what you don't realize, and will never realize, is that your repeated posts about Inferno difficulty are tantamount to trolling. The entire time you have been playing Diablo III, you've been in easy mode, where the game is balanced with a steady progression of difficulty and gear rewards to match it. That progression ends in Inferno difficulty. But you'll never see it now.

Ever wonder why it seems like a "bandwagon" to you? Keep on' truckin.

Pray tell me what is this great mystery about Inferno that I as a layman have not been able to fathom?

It's been explained to you dozens of times. You don't seem to realize what the extra modifier does on certain boss combinations (yay Arcane Enchanted Invulnerable Minions Desecrator Frozen as melee!), and you routinely ignore the damage numbers that have been presented. You respond to Demon Hunters complaining about getting 3 shot and suggest they need better gear or more defensive skills, and anyone who has played past Act II Inferno will simply shake their head and laugh at that. I don't really know where to begin.

You continuously post as an authority on the subject without ever having experienced it. I do not post as an authority on hardcore mode, because I do not play it. You are the subject of continuous derision by a number of Lurker players who play in "easy mode" Inferno difficulty, but you just don't stop.

(snipped authoritative posts suggesting that people stop playing Inferno mode and do something else)

Now for the fun part! Been looking forward to this trolling here:

So, basically, all of your "sky is falling" pronouncements that Diablo III is a big scam to get people to use the RMAH and that if you don't use it, you won't be able to finish the game were complete farces.

I NEVER SAID THIS, ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, EVER.

I'll repeat for you, since you can't read, that I said that the end game of Diablo III is the auction house. Statistically, and mathematically, you will always reach a point where the most efficient way to upgrade your character is to log on and sit on the auction house all day, since the odds of actually finding an upgrade from the game itself will approach zero at a steady pace. I never once stated that you will need to play the auction house to beat the game. To beat the game, you can either farm for a disgustingly long time, or play the auction house.

However, please tell me, as I am clearly an ignorant person, maybe there is a mechanic used in Inferno that I am not aware of. Perhaps a souped-up version of the Butcher appears randomly and chases your character around the zone if you haven't spent $100 on the RMAH?

Nice troll, Mongo. I'll troll you back - I'm glad I play Diablo III in practice mode, so that I don't have to interact with real players like yourself who know everything and enjoy replaying the easy difficulties over again when their characters die. Your tactic of:

1) Make snarky comment about softcore mode and its players
2) Get called on it
3) Pull back and say "I just want people to try everything the game has to offer"

It's so over-the-top trolling. You should let Gnollguy advertise the benefits of hardcore mode, because he does it right, instead of your method of trying to put down softcore players.
