    What did Blizzard do this time? Or is a reference to their same old bullshit?

      Mostly same old bullshit just add D4 being a cashgrab/flop on the pile if you were unaware of that part. As far as I know that’s their most recent community oriented fuck up following overwatch 2 drama.

        I didn’t know D4 had flopped. I got D2R on a huge sale that came with D3 in a combo bundle that was cheaper than D2R alone at full price, and IMO it’s fine as an ARPG but TERRIBLE as a Diablo game. Grim Dawn is a better D2 successor, even if it doesn’t have procedural dungeon generation. Torchlight 2 is okay for that part, and having a pet to sell loot for ya is nice too. As for Overwatch I have a low opinion on multiplayer games (I play ARPGs solo) overall and competitive gameplay especially, so IDGAF about that game. Blizz is still a shit company now though, and a prime example of what happens when you sell a franchise to a big corporate overlord.
