Let the trade spam begin! I'm sure the trade forums and class forums will see an influx of trade topics as a direct result.

For me the AH was an easy way to earn a bit of gold and be able to get items i needed and would take months to farm on my own. Now Gold is worthless, everything i farm is too, and it'll take me months to farm a single gem because I don't sit around playing all day in order to be able to farm one efficiently. I won't be playing Diablo 3 anymore once this goes through. Waste of time now. | ||

And I can guarantee you things like gem combine fees, blacksmith costs will be tuned in prepare for a full self-found game, how about you read something about the system that's called Loot 2.0? | ||

The thrill of getting a good deal on a pair of boots, or selling my gems at a really high price. those things were so much more fun then farming for hours on end just in the small chance of getting an item i won't even be able to use anyways. but i guess on the bright side, the RMT market will go up, and i'll end up selling my gold for a decent price. | ||

Though only a good decision if Loot 2.0 is gonna be half as awesome as it's currently on PS3. From what I've seen lots of useful stufff drops there, maybe a little bit too much. | ||

If there's still player-to-player trade, you can still get those thrills. You just have to do more than refresh the auction house over and over. | ||

And I believe there will be a place dedicated for player to do trades, it's hard to imagine that the void that the AH system was meant to place in remain untouched, Blizzard needs to control the econ/money flow of their game, and I think they want to. | ||

Because you don't have as many stupid people selling their items for cheap. more often you will have people selling that kind of stuff to vendors. | ||

i wasn't the biggest fan of auction house but to kill it entirely is kind of stupid imo. they made a game that essentially forced you to rely on the auction house, and then they take it away when everyone adjusts to the system they put in place. talk about shooting yourself in the foot. | ||

So they weren't lying earlier when they said that they think that the AH isn't good for Diablo 3, I had hopes when I read that interview back then. | ||
