As expected, the real-money Auction House in Diablo III has been a windfall for some players, including Reddit user WishboneTheDog, who posted screen grabs of his transaction history and Paypal to prove his moneymaking prowess.
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.
All those games had to release without bugs.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Diablo III: Season 28 brings with it the Altar of Rites, an altar full of unlockable bonuses and potions that will require the gathering of tons of resources. One of things needed is the Staff of Herding, which also unlocks the famous Cow Level known as Whimsyshire. Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
Oh wow, I just can't believe someone can spend over 200 bucks on a 50 dollar game... And that's for just 1 item! CRAZY!
The auction house is making the game extremely boring. It's sad too...I loved the Diablo series. Now I can just overpower my character through the auction house and just hope I get some kind of drop from the enemies I mow through.
I haven't even spent any real money, just in game gold. Sad...
I have made almost $2000 on the RMAH, just learning the Gold value and buying low selling high and building up. Then using that Gold to buy an underpriced godly item and reselling for over $200. Rinse. Repeat.
I also, only play about 6-8 hours a week.
They need to remove the real money auction house and keep the gold one. That's my opinion atleast. To many losers droppin hundreds of bucks to be godly. Its only gonna get worst when pvp comes. Competition will drive these nerds to empty there bank accounts.
I make €188 every Tuesday for standing in line for 5 minutes.
