So Blizzard basically made Diablo3 their personal "chicken with the golden eggs"?

btw, for ro people in case is someone here, you can preorder CE on altex site. good price for both normal/ce, and they say that they will have enough stock, and they will participate in launch event. store is open at 00:00, shitloads of normal edition.
you can reserve your ce copy (for store pickup) only on 14 mai, but you can preorder at any time. no charge for transport afaik.

Already bought digital. I don't trust ro shops to give me the possibility of playing on midnight release, so..

Europeans pay in euros on blizzard's site...so 60 euro is 79$. That's considerably cheaper.

Checking this real money thing...
So you can play the game and sell your character and items for real cash$.. keeping the game altogether.
How mush money back would a "end" character make? 10/ 20€?

i dont see any point for blizzard to allow selling your character.
his gear is more valuable, and there is nothing like bind on pickup item, so you can freely sell gear.
there is no arena/pve rating so again, is pointless to buy a char for some kind of rating.
nor unique names, so that is not a sell point either.
can you think of a reason you could want to buy a naked char ? just for quick acces to inferno ? gear is more important that a naked toon.
i managed to find a name for my wd.
Whodo.

Without that, there would be no selling items ingame = no money for you.
If you planned on using 3rd party sites, go ahead and keep doing that.
Why whine? Oh, cause you can..got it. |
Are you fucking dumb? I'm talking about real money, not in game fucking currency. I'm for a auction fee for in game currency because that's how auctions work, but stealing your money is bullshit. I guess it's all the subhumans who would eagerly suck off every single Blizzard employer given the chance, that keeps this fucking bullshit coming, and i see enough of those around here.

It seems Blizzard is fucking brilliant. They created a huge money stream for the coming ten years, atleast, with just one game. They don't even have to support it like WoW, just let gamers play and trade. Most confusing thing, for me atleast, is that no one seems to mind. If EA did this, they'd be flamed all over the net.

If anything people would only be annoyed over the high fee's attached to it. People have been trading ingame items for real life currency in Diablo 2 forever and this was an obvious addition. If the fees get too high, the 3rd party sites will flourish again like d2jsp.org.

How would external sites flourish? I thought Blizzard kept a tight lid on anything external concerning this game.

I don't know shit about the game/ series (or any other gold farming games) just trying to figure out how this business model works.
Instead of selling hats they put an Ebay shop in the game.
Seems to be a great income revenue (for Blizzard) maybe enough to allow free DLC = keep the player hooked = more blizzard_bay business
But for the average player who plays it to the end 1/ 2 times can he expect to get a big part of is money back (the $ spent on buying the game) from striping his character after nailing the Big Boss?

Huh? Have you ever played diablo 2? How will they control 2 people joining a game and trading items?

High costs attached to AH is just retarded. It isnt gonna take the community long to just use the auction house as a guideline for prices and then just skip the AH altogether and use paypal directly.
