Diablo 3 is a great game - but it fails spectacularly at remaining compelling after the 80 hour playtime mark.
Reason #1 here is my greatest gripe. I played Diablo 2 for hours in the hope that I may get something cool. Now I can do Butcher runs and get absolutely nothing and end up spending most of my time trying to sell unidentified items in trade. Not only that but in order for me to upgrade it seems I need to collect 10 million gold to get something. It's just not fun. To each their own I suppose...
