The devs initially wanted that players express themself by plaing with the skills they prefer the most and that all builds would be viable. https://youtu.be/q3NkFxpb4hI?t=52m14s There are billions of builds possible, but with the implementation of OP sets, the number of viable builds was narrowed down to ~10 per class

Playing in a four man group gives you ~10 time more XP than if you would play solo.

PvP Arenas were already implemented, but were taken out for obscure reasons. Looks like a ton of fun, as seen in the video below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZrGE3VLiSk

Yes, some legendary have interesting special affixes,like Etched Sigil or Corrupted Ashbringer, but the vast majority of legendaries has totally boring special affixes like "Increase the Damage of Skill X by 300%" or "Reduce the Cooldown of Skill X by 50%"

To this day we wonder: are the developers not able or not willing to balance this game?

Currently the best thing to do in the endgame to progress in Paragon Level, getting items fast and getting the most XP is to do Greater Rifts (timed randomized dungeons with random monsters). Which lead to other aspects of the game (Story Mode, Bounties and Normal Rifts) to mostly become redundant.

The talisman was a special place in your inventory in which you could place charms, but the feature never made it into the game. It would have been posible to place legendary charms in there, but the developers decided to create legendary gems instead, which only con be socketed into jewels %u2013 which basically means that a socket is mandatory on
