I am personally immensely frustrated at the game. It feels pointless to me farming act 1 Inferno over and over just to buy 1 piece on the AH.
I think it's intended though, soon as the RMAH rolls around all us terribly frustrated people can just buy our way into progression, without even having to farm for the gold!
It's not just the gold farming that bothers me though, I feel like it is gimmicky, not genuinely difficult (as compared to Heroic WoW bosses anyways). Blizzard learnt through WoW that 1-shot deaths, even on tanks, was a horrible prospect and toned down burst damage a lot. They really need to figure out a way to make D3 more difficult without the monster just killing you because you looked at it.
