I wouldn't be so critical if this wasn't a $60 game with years of time and millions of dollars of development poured into it and the endgame wasn't literally "buy and sell stuff so we make money off of you".
Well, I guess it's a good thing they give you two options for end game. One option doesn't give them any money because all purchases are done in Gold. The second option, the RMAH, will let Blizzard make money off you... but, it let's you make more money off Blizzard. For every transaction you can get a minimum of 70% of the selling price, right? I don't see how this is a bad thing. You're essentially given a legitimate and safe way of making money from playing a video game. How deep is your sense of entitlement that you're going to bitch about paying a fee for using a service that you don't have to use?
PS: I loved my N64 but I only played a few games (007, Mario Kart, Mario 64, Gauntlet Legends, SanFrancisco Rush, Turok) on it. I felt the rest were kinda garbage.
