Skills should be a utility, not a necessity.

Haven't played this game, but in general, it's loot that should be a utility, not a necessity.

So you think you should be able to solo the game without any gear?

I'd agree with your statement if we're talking about raid-gear in a MMO or something, but I completely disagree for standard gear that you most definitely get plenty of as you progress.

D2's problem was skills were too powerful and designed in a way to promote a cookie-cutter character plan. This game fixes that and makes you rely more on your gear.

The game does have some issues right now but so do most games of this type at launch. Look at EverQuest 2... horrible at launch but now it's a completely different game.

As said above, just wait until act 4 if you're complaining about variery.
