Blizzard just announced that you can sell legally your items in Diablo 3 for real life money using PayPal. With other words Diablo 3 will have a new auction house feature that will let player buy and sell items for real money. PayPal will be used as payment-service partner for the Diablo III auction house, allowing players who trade with real-world currency the ability to cash out the spoils of their battle-torn adventures via a PayPal account.
This is great because you can sell items and withdraw your money for minutes instead of months as it now takes in Entropia Universe. And this is probably the worst feature of Entropia Universe - The Withdrawal Process.
Blizzard also revealed that the game will require a constant online connection to be played. Something like StarCraft 2. But this is probably to be expected so they can protect the game from hacking and selling items for millions of dollars.
From all beta movies I saw it seems Diablo 3 will feel as Diablo 2 with change in the skill system. Which may be bad thing, because you cannot customize your character as much as in Diablo 2. (Game is still in beta! Changes will be.) But don't make mistake! Diablo 3 WILL be the best game in its class for 2012 and the following 10 years.
Speaking of release date - Blizzard was aiming for the end of 2011, but now it is moved to early 2012. This is no surprise for anyone that knows something abouth Blizzard. The make games slow until every bid is perfectly polished. And even after that they continue to make it better.
If you can't wait and want to play Diablo 3 sooner, register for beta account on battle.net and hope Blizzard will send you beta key so you can play up to the first boss for free. To be eligible to participate in the Diablo III beta test, you need an active Battle.net account with any Blizzard game title attached to it.
