players do not have to use the real money auction house if they don't want to.
also, unlike D2 that got hacked liked crazy, D3 will actually be an online hosted game (so even playing one player you have to log on to the diablo.net server). this was done for mostly security reasons and to protect the real money auction house. obviously not saying it's 100% hack proof though.
