Diablo 4 sales have brought Blizzard more than $1 billion. About 15 percent of that amount came from microtransactions.

      Yeah. FOMO and nostalgia got me, and some people saying Blizzard definitely has learned… But D4 was the last straw for me.

      I barely got through the story on my first character. Every other Diablo, I did at least one full run in every class.

        Honestly I fell asleep playing the game… Twice.

        There’s just something that makes me so bored.

          I’m right there with you. I won’t deny that there’s a chance that it’s just a side effect of being old, but I nodded off more than a few times.

          I can’t put my finger on it either, but everything just felt like a chore. I must quit playing it for months and only fired it up to finish the story because I knew I had to be close, and I couldn’t leave it like that.

            Can’t say that I enjoyed the story but I think the game is in pretty good shape right now after a couple of seasons. If you like to just kill stuff at least.

      Bought at %50 off and still don’t think I’ve gotten value out of it. And then kind of feels bad that I won’t really be able to go back to it after the next expansion because I feel the base game will then be obsolete without it.

      Maybe thats why they sold so many microtransactions. “Surely if I spend another $10 it wont be shit”
