The reason items are so fucking bland and garbage like are simply do to the World of Warcraft influence by suits over at ActiBliz. Unfortunately, they have build this fundamental bullshit into the game. In Diablo 2 when you got stats as in Str/Vit/Dex/Int on an item it was somewhat rare and it was debatable if it was needed for your character or not. This left items able to roll more properties because you weren't dependent on stats. In Diablo 3 every item pretty much has to have Main Stat + Vit + Resist All + Damage modifier which is boring as shit and only leads to plus gooder, they even dumb it down more with +dps and +toughness.
Now they spent almost two years just updating the shitty loot trying to make it interesting so to be disappointed that they are still dogshit in most cases shouldn't surprise anyone. Even with the legendary items thought it still boils down to Main Stat + Vit + Resist All + Damage modifier + (maybe special unique ability) yet most don't even have said special unique ability or if they do they are to worthless to give a shit about, the few that are done well and actually feel like a bonus are nice but only further show how lame some of the others are. The fact that so many are saying well the Enchanter fixes everything are retarded, the enchanter in it's current form is a fucking bandaid to help further patch what loot 2.0 missed. Oh great now I can disenchant boring legendaries (fun fun) to roll +gooder on my usable legendary.
Skills having no base damage and everything coming down to weapon damage + modifiers was another problem all together. You can tell the their most successful franchise has influenced all of the design choices with Diablo 3 that leaves it shallow and boring, the game is fun for a few weeks and it will be fun to play RoS build a Crusader try Act 5 play for a month or so and then put D3 back on the shelf to collect dust until the next major patch or xpac breaths life back into the game for another few weeks. There is no end game nor has there ever been even in D2 but at least D2 wasn't locked down with BoA, DRM, Limited character slots, and other retarded shit. Also a Ladder would be nice for RoS, D2 had new uniques per ladder season which is something D3 could benefit from but the downside is D3 has limited character slots so meh.
Either way it has been more fun logging in with the clan system that is something that should of been in at release and not two years later. The AH was nice in theory but shit in practice but everything being BoA is worse. Still no PvP, ect, ect, for a game that started development in 2001 Diablo 3 was just so fucking unfinished it wasn't funny. Many of us complained on release that they game was a late Alpha early Beta game that was marketed as a full finished product. RoS seems like we are now getting close to 90% of a full game but we're still missing some key features, oh well maybe in the next three or four xpacs we'll finally get everything we were promised would be available at release. Maybe game companies should just charge $150-$200 for full and complete games instead of you having to piece meal them together over years.
