They fucked up the game with the early seasons and finally turned things around starting season 3, and had great improvements through season 5.

Now they are literally force junking ALL the gear, seasonal or not, to make the same endgame that existed before, take longer.

So instead of actually working to add content, they:

• half ass implemented runes, which were already a copy from D2, but implemented them in a broken way
• turned glyphs into legendary gems of D3, but not as good again
• split levels into more gated tiers, with no added value , knowing full well that the only tiers worth playing are going to be the ones that actual give you chance of decent gear
• made loot drops a fucking joke, where even a tormented lvl 200 boss drops 3-4 items, of which ONE might be an ancestral, but it still has the huge shitty attribute pool, ensuring that most of the time, you’ll just be tossing life per second rolls.

Out of the 9 people I actively played D4/D3 with, all of which were excited for the expansion after seeing how well the last couple seasons went, not a single one bought the expansion and will likely be sitting out the next seasons until Blizzard gets their heads out of their asses once more.

I’ve been debating for a while to switch windows to Linux and see how well it works for my games, thanks Microsoft for finally pushing me to do it!

Only thing keeping me on windows has been games (all other development use is far easier on Linux); but with the work that happened with Steam Deck, many games are now fully functional on Linux.

Stop with the spamming across instances and communities

Example:

You really need to stop Reddit spamming posts across multiple instances and communities; you’re just trashing the place.

So many of these games require servers when it shouldn’t. Playing simple coop should not be dependent on the companies underwhelming server infrastructure.

Borderlands proved this with allowing people to host coop sessions without any need for servers.

Those investors that expect quick returns are directly responsible for ruining so many games in the last decade; pushing for quick releases of unfinished money grabs which makes players cautious about what they buy, or just wait for those half games to go on sale and buy them at half off (what they’re actually worth, if that).

The road map will definitely be updated and followed, unlike that old roadmap

The proper title here

The amount of suggestions to try removing the virus instead of performing a full wipe truly amazes me.

Backup known files, scrutinize them, wipe all the disks and clean install

It’s a 0% with the Denuvo virus.

Except for all the PvE content that was promised. They ended up having as much PvE as a CoD game these days

Take a regular bow with flint arrows and you can 1 shot them - we were haunted by the deathsquittos (aka skeeters) for a while, but it’s not that hard to snipe them and get stuff back. Esp with the corpse run feature you get upon grabbing the tombstone
