Didn't have high hopes for this mobile ripoff of the Diablo franchise, but figure I'll give it a shot. This video, though, makes me even less enthusiastic about this game than the simple "mobile" factor already had.

Because it is pay to win and if you say otherwise your either ignorant of the mechanics or a troll.
D2r is not P2W in particular. It took me a day of playing the new season to be able to solo hell baal runs without issue, farm nearly any location. And just a touch of help from friends, and suddenly a torch and anni is pretty easy too.
Trading in D2 isn't to make it so you're fast or competitive. It's to take you that extra notch, where instead of being able to simply solo at a fast rate or even have another person MF while you're experience seeking, but to instead put you in a position where you're seeking to solo baal/chaos in 8 player games for maximized xp gains. And even that isn't really necessary.
"Being competitive" doesn't require any trading. Used to, but rune drops were upped enough it's just not that much of a problem. The only real issue is if you're pushing for that very last 5% that having absolutely perfect of absolutely every item gives you. And honestly, what's the point?
Edit: I've reread your post and thought about it for a bit. While you quoted someone who said they don't understand people who say D2r is p2w, it's just D2 with better graphics. Upon examination, I believe you quoted them by mistake and your entire post was about Diablo Immortal. Strange thing to quote, given your response.
