how does the existence of ancient legendaries render your current gear useless? When the patch goes out, will you be unable to do the same GRift level that you were capable of before? ridiculous point of view.
also, do you intend to say DIABLO (3), a hack n slash game, should be replayable but not repetitive?
Power inflation has to happen so we may progress through higher level GRs. Depending on a very rare weapon drop to be Ancient to be competitive is a serious problem. Here's a recent tweet on the subject: https://twitter.com/candlesan/status/532743343965356032
If they buff more weapons to be competitive with Furnace, I'm completely okay with Ancient gear. If they don't, I'm not, because it's a little TOO rng.
I'm honestly not seeing it. The crack he made about Barbarians may have been a tad rude, but it's not over the line. Moving RRoG to act 5 was a pretty ridiculous suggestion though. That one I will concede.
"I’m sure I’ll be asking you about this next year"
A perfect example was the "question" about stash space, which was actually just a rambling rant of complaints. I LOVED Travis' response; "Well that’s two questions. Do you want to know about stash space or about microtransactions. Since those aren’t the same thing."
That was one of the most interesting answers of the interview. Looks like Microtransactions are NOT off the table ;-)
Whoever did this interview was extremely disrespectful. Doubt this clown will ever be granted another interview. I was actually shocked at how snarky and disrespectful he was during almost every question. Sounded more like one of the brooding, angst ridden Bnet forum posters than anything close to a journalist. Just ....wow at the amateur bullshit this guy pulled.

Posting this extremely interesting interview with Travis Day ( D3 Systems designer) by Diablo IncGamers for visibility. There's better information here then the d3 panels themselves at times. It's definitely worth a look. Big thank you to Diablo Incgamers:
