Out of curiosity what makes Diablo 3 better since last patch? I really was less than impressed when the game came out. Played it for couple of hours then un-installed it. Crafting and AH in a hack and slash game was a terrible idea imo.
Well, I'm not quite sure when you last played it. A good bit has changed. Many skills have been better balanced. There is now a Paragon Level System which is after you reach 60. You basically get stat increases and magic find/gold find 3% per level. There are also these keys that can be farmed to create an Infernal Machine which has a few mobs that are quite a bit stronger than in the regular gameplay, so there is a chance of dropping some good gear.
I honestly don't have a problem with the crafting and Auction House. I spend a lot of time working in the AH selling items and catching good deals. Give it another shot.

I never thought I would come back to it as I got a bit bored with it, but I did. I will get bored again, but for now it is holding my attention.
