Already been posted I believe, but it's amusing at least. I didn't find it as funny as some people seem to.

So... basically single player?  Not bad at all.

EDIT: So... once you hit Inferno/60... D3 becomes a grind for gold, in the most basic of sense.  A rat race against repair costs...  And yes, I now turn back to pick up +50 gold off the floor.  If I can see it, I must have it. 
Also, running Act 4 Hell and Act 1 Inferno to farm gold gets old pretty fast... and I just only started doing that...  2 days ago. I think its designed to push players to the cash AH...
Stop dying so much.  Repair bills are pretty cheap when you do HC and never die.
Yea... working on that... 
Need better gear and I'm already speccing 4 purely defensive skills to avoid dying in Act 1 Inferno.  Though, I can facetank a buncha things in the first half of the Act now...
Act 2 Inferno?  Last I checked, I just die when an elite looks my way.

Fun Fact: I'm a dirty casual, never going to bother with Hardcore.

That is a hilarious amount of price inflation... I think, anyway.

I didn't buy the game yet and I got a feeling I won't buy it. I just got a feeling I would regret it. The discussion section in the official forums are crying out loud "DON'T BUY THIS GAME!" Is it that bad?

After some patches maybe.

Its really not as bad as the official forums makes it out to be.  The game is pretty solid, despite a few annoyances.

Gold farmers farm gold... player buys gold, puts some item up for sale at extreme rate, gold seller buys item... transaction complete!

Ooooh, so that's how it works.

Interesting.

Need to know if I am being stupid here.  I read this is a really heavy snark against Blizzard, and found it amusing.  I shared this link on my Facebook, and a friend of mine who plays the game is trying to tell me that this is supposed to actually be a snark against people who complain about the game/praise for Blizzard.  I thought it was a crazy bit of cognitive dissonance, because this guy alternates between complaining about the game and then defending it against other people when they complain.  Then two other people joined in to back him up on his interpretation...

Stop trying to figure out the logic behind a troll post. He's doing it for attention, nothing more, so he will post whatever gets the most attention.

I can't think of a game I've played recently that hasn't had a hatedom. You gotta keep in mind that the people who actually enjoy the game are probably not taking time out to go post on the forums to get trolled by everyone else.

It isn't that bad, no. There are outstanding issues but they've been patched up more since release than D2 was for years afterward. *shrug* If you're looking for a loot-based hack-n-slash, you'll probably enjoy it. If you're going in looking for things to hate on, you probably won't enjoy it.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.
So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.
