    I thought the battle pass + shop was the reason to fund servers and all future dlc…

    If those expansions are going to be more than €15 it’s going to be a hard sell to me.

    If it’s like actual MMORPG expansion (new zones, new things to do, etc), I think it will be good for the game. But still depends on the price

      Honestly, having know this I wouldn’t have bought D4 in the first place.

      It was expensive as fuck for a game that I played a week at most, and got boring. Not saying the game isn’t great on some aspects. The story and graphics are amazing but… other than that it’s not that interesting late game.

      Spending 60€+ on a game that has battle passes and an ingame shop on top of it, for them to add one expansion a year after, yearly? Wtf

      It’s true what they say. Blizzard has gotten greed af.

      This has probably been the last game I will ever buy from them. There are already Diablo 4 private servers, I think I’ll just wait until those catch up with those expansions…

        Last Epoch is in a pretty great place currently if you like the ARPG genre. It’s still in beta/early access, but it should have its full 1.0 launch within the next year. For me, it’s the perfect middle ground of complexity between D3/4 and PoE.

          Oh… That seems nice! I like PoE but yeah, it does get too complex.

          When I was studying and had a lot of free time, that would’ve probably been a plus to me back then. But today PoEs extensive build options are just a headache…

          I’ll try last epoch for sure! As I thought D3 (although fun) was a bit too simple on the builds.

      New things to do could be interesting, but I hope it’s not just new campaign. I found the D4 campaign a bother and skipped through it all.
