Having to restart each season is entirely expected since it was the same way with D3 seasons.

New story content that drive each new season sounds awesome! Looking forward to seeing how it goes.

I already like not having to grind for gear.

Yeah, if they add even just somewhat decent story content they'll get me to spend money on the seasons too. Don't quite remember what put me off from trying D3, but D4 got a lot of praise for its story and atmosphere so I decided to give it a try, even if it was relativly pricy. And despite occasional server hiccups I haven't regretted that decision

It doesn't really make sense, but going to nightmare dungeons to grind so "numbers go up" doesn't really motivate me as much as a little blue exclamation mark and a nice voice over telling me to go to place X and kill monsters Y

I can see why forced restarts put some people off, but for me I guess it'l be a good thing. I'd be tempted to continue my current char otherwise, but a fresh start will mix things up and force me to try a different play style, thus keep things interresting for longer
