Plot twist, it was shit before the patch too!
Despite the patch, I was still willing to play season 1(already paid $70 so why not)
Then I saw that reward track. Free sucks and somehow the paid version sucks more.
Uninstalled.
I refused to play Blizzard games after their Hong Kong and Hearthstone shenanigans and history has time and again justified that decision.
That said, the Diablo games were always close to my heart. Out of curiosity, what makes the free/paid reward tracks feel so unrewarding to you?
Free offers the blandest armor skins you can think of(base game skins look better) and a crappy title that you can put on your character that no one will notice.
Paid gives you mid cosmetics and 666 of their microtransaction tokens. Except the cheapest item in the store is 800 tokens. So you get to pay money so you can pay money again to actually use the rewards from the paid track. It’s a slap in the face and I’m glad I didn’t buy ultimate edition.
I don’t regret paying the $70 because before the latest patch the game was actually pretty damn fun. But I have absolutely no reason to keep playing anymore. I’m going to remember my times with d4 fondly and forget that the game still exists.
