Auction House bliver fjernet fra Diablo III til næste år

Nyheden mange har ventet på lige siden Diablo III udkom sidste år, er endelig blevet bekræftet af Blizzard selv: Auction House bliver fjernet fra spillet - både guld og penge-versionen.

Det hele kommer til at ske til marts næste år, fordi Blizzard har erkendt at inklusionen af auktionen underminerer det traditionelle Diablo-gameplay, hvilket er hvad størstedelen af seriens fans har sagt lige siden spillet blev lanceret.

Fra Blizzards egen John Hight lyder det:

" When we initially designed and implemented the auction houses, the driving goal was to provide a convenient and secure system for trades. But as we've mentioned on different occasions, it became increasingly clear that despite the benefits of the AH system and the fact that many players around the world use it, it ultimately undermines Diablo's core game play: kill monsters to get cool loot. With that in mind, we want to let everyone know that we've decided to remove the gold and real-money auction house system from Diablo III.

We feel that this move along with the Loot 2.0 system being developed concurrently with Reaper of Souls™ will result in a much more rewarding game experience for our players."

Spørgsmålet er så bare om denne forbedring kommer alt for sent - får I lyst til at vende tilbage til Diablo III?
