Yeah there have been WAY too many first day burns happening this year. I will be buying all of my games after they have had a chance to sit for about a month. That way it is easier to see what the real problems are and what the publisher will do about it. I am officially off of the pre-order wagon.ExtraDebit said:

Assuming it works like a real economy and this influx of gold creates a rampant inflation event.
Infinite increase in money + Finite Supply = Exponential Inflation.
Whatever. Gold was destined to become worthless whichever direction you approach it from; either people spend it on items, or once the demand for items is filled, it just hangs around doing very little.xorinite said:
A temporary solution. Of course, the best solution, at least in terms of providing good gameplay, would be to not balance the game around grinding items for an economy.
This is the same Blizzard that overhauled two massive continents in the biggest MMO in the world to allow for flying mounts. The notion that they can't code monster levels and map layouts into the client is ludicrous. They just don't want to. Forcing players to be always-online increases their likelihood of using the RMAH - which, in turn, increases revenue for Blizzard.piinyouri said:

It's a bit off topic, and I'm sure I won't be the only one on here to mention it, but I feel I should point out that the United States got off the gold standard in 1971, thus the value of the US dollar isn't tied to the value of gold anymore. So that even if the price of gold were to rapidly drop in value, barring any external factors, the US dollar would be mostly unaffected.BigTuk said:
All games do that. they broke their agreement upon accoutn creation not to abuse any possible flaw and this their accounts are forfeit, real money or fake. Usually thats used agaisnt cheaters, but in this case it also applies.canadamus_prime said:
Really? That's stupid. I mean it's not as though they created some hack or something, it's Blizzard that screwed up.Strazdas said:
Of course that only really applies to games with an online component because who cares if someone abuses a bug in an offline single player game. Of course Diablo III doesn't have such a thing...Strazdas said:
Well yes, its main argument is that by abusing the bugs you change the experiences of other players therefore you should not be allwoed to cheat this way. In singleplayer theo nly experience you ruin is your own so do whatever you want. Though at one point they tried to restrict that but it was unenforcible thing. My personal opinion is that one should be allowed to dow hatever he wnats with his singleplayer games be it cheats or trainers or mods. though as you said, Diablo 3 doesn ot have singleplayer.canadamus_prime said:
