Why would anyone give Blizzard a single red cent at this point? Signing up to be bored and get robbed.

Personally, I’ve avoided the situation entirely by simply not buying D4.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Diablo 4 Season 3 started with promise, introducing new dungeon activities named Vaults, a thematic tie-in to the legend of Zoltan Kulle, and a customizable Seneschal companion to aid players in battling demons.

By calling it "too good" I was being hyperbolic of course, but what I actually meant was the activities in Season 2 felt fast-paced, in line with Diablo's essence, and were rewarding, particularly during the leveling stages.

The questline, including voice lines from Zoltun Kulle and cheeky nods to previous iterations of the game like the 'mysterious cube' left on his desk, feels like a great fan service.

Whilst the Vampiric theme of Season of Blood had its own tab, it still required certain currencies, called Pacts and Cleansing Acid that did take up stash space.

I feel almost bad writing this when I'm so early in my own Diablo Season 3 journey, but it's hard to ignore the consensus I'm seeing from the community and friends playing the game.

I'm normally itching to play a new season of Diablo and enjoy the leveling process immensely, but even in my baby World Tier 1 state, I found the traps a drag, and promptly put the game down and returned to Palworld.

I’m not because I’m not playing it. That seems to be the best course of action for me.
