The only 2 things i do not agree with in this patch is the magic find and IAS nerf

Same, or well.. I agree in hating the MF nerf.

Blizzard is trying to force people to play the game a certain way. They want exploring the game and killing champions/elites to be the only efficient way to get gear. (and also killing bosses after you've already gotten 5 stacks of valor)

They want inferno to be extremely difficult so that only the most dedicated, or best geared players can easily farm it (notice I said easily, I bet no more than 1-2% of players would say that act 3-4 inferno is a mindless farm like D2)

I think really what it comes down to is that blizzard is using the difficulty to manage the flow of items into the RMAH to keep the prices of items in the $10-100 range for at least a few months. While most of the players would probably prefer game play more like D2 where bosses are easy, legendaries drop off half your boss kills, and you're just searching for that 1/1000 drop that's one of the 20-30 most sought after items.
