Big fan, been co-oping with my best friend just like we did with D3 and D2. And I feel no need to buy any of the cosmetics or passes, and we're having a blast every night. That's silly to you, lol?? Cool cool cool.
I've been playing and enjoying immensely. I would have been interested in buying a skin for my rogue but they never had anything I liked. They just put one out that is actually cool but when I looked how much real money it would cost...I just closed out the store and will probably never buy anything. $25. Twenty five whole dollars just for one skin for one character. No.
If you are upset by this after they've been doing the same thing for almost 20 years and you brought into it again your a mug. You know what it's going to be eventually as the first wave of sales dies off the microtrans starts up. A lot of people got in early got their 50-100 hours in and called it a day or didn't bother after 3.
I went from playing WoW(2005 to legion), Diablo(2,3), Hearthstone(alot of expansions), and HotS to nothing. They got a lot of money out of me over the years but ultimately have lost my business moving forward.
You’re right it’s just cosmetic stuff. However the battle pass itself costs money. So the idea that paying money for the battle pass doesn’t earn you enough to buy ANYTHING is kind of ridiculous. I know you unlock other things in the battle pass itself but still.
I only have this seasons battle pass because it came with the digital deluxe edition. I can’t see myself ever buying it.
Not that I disagree with you, because it is absurd, but I’ve been writing off the cost of the battle pass as just a way to get “discount” cosmetics. The overall cost of the cold iron set is cheaper than a standard store set at the cost of needing to grind to get it.
Wait you get only some cosmetics? But there are still stuff that you dont get and need to buy? You pay for the game and a battle pass and you still don't get everything?? That is some bullshit.
Funny how COD has it but Diablo doesn't. They must have some kind of data that shows only a small amount of people are playing COD enough to get the full amount of currency. Would have been a good look to offer full amount in the pass even if casual gamers couldn't get it.
Fortnite and Rocket League have it too but COD/Diablo are the same company.
I bought the deluxe version because I wanted access to the beta weekend and early access.
It came with the battle pass and will try to complete it but I will not buy another one. If this was a free to play game with no pay 2 win mechanics, I would from time to time have bought a pass or skin. They would have gotten more money out of me off they did.
The BattlePass is also terrible. I got it because I paid to play the game early, but I won’t be getting another one. I looked through it, and it’s worthless.
