Flux, Xanth, and Aahz discuss the major issues, pro and con, surrounding the Diablo 3 Auction House, especially in light of the v1.08 gold dupe bug. Also, how does D3's story stand up after a year's evaluation?
This is part two of TDP #93, but the episodes are edited to stand independently.
1:30 -- Hacks and gold botting. Increasingly in Hardcore? Economic ramifications of cheaters.
5:30 -- Story. Disappointed by the main story, loved all the smaller details. Why? Flux thinks it's intentional; that the main story was made like a Michael Bay film, so anyone could understand it while paying no attention. Everyone tries to explain Magda. No one can.
20:50 -- Auction House. People say they don't want it, but 3 days of AH downtime while they fixed the v1.08 bug had people going crazy. Could people stand going back to barter? Lack of currency for sales? WUG was hell. The AH does a great job establishing fair market value to facilitate trading. Will the v1.08 in-AH item tooltip compare/display change prices and sales?
35:50 -- v1.08 gold dupe bug and Blizzard's recovery efforts. Restore vs. rollback? The gold duping underscored the problems with the AH, and then the next 3 days of AH-downtime underscored how utterly addicted to the AH are so many players.
