I really do not understand why people are kicking up a fuss here. This is what Blizzard does to every game since merging into Activision. Activision's idea of a good game is to make you spend more and more time in the game. They reduce spawn rates, they nerf players and they make drops be exactly what you do not need or restrict to very small upgrades. I feel very vindicated with not buying into D4.

Had looked forward to D4, but decided to wait a few months before I buy. That was a good decision.

I waited as well, but clearly not long enough...

"Can't wait to be told they're listening to everything we say and nothing will be changed," wrote a player named Presenex in a much-upvoted comment.

It's been a long time since Blizzard would actually listen to feedback. They say it all the damn time, "we're seeing all this feedback" and then their actions do not at all seem to actually take it into account. Whatever. I'm not gonna watch the "campfire chat" or whatever bc why bother.

That is just it though. They listen, they change and once the dust settles, everything just goes straight back again.

We’ll I won’t be bothering with a Sorcerer as my season 1 character.

I quit D3 early on and am glad I never looked back. Their playbook is bad and they should feel bad. It's the same shit all over again.

I wanted this game so bad. Super glad I waited. At this point I’m not even going to bother. I’ll just put all of my time in BG3 instead.
