The one thing that blizzard has done right when it comes to d4 is realized that the vast majority of their player base don’t have the time or the desire to spend hundreds of hours leveling
yes, but gamers these days are whiny bitches and replaying d2's campaign was never an issue and being 99 in d2 was never a real requirement. im not saying it needs to be hundreds of hours, but theres something off about getting to 100 or to the end game quicker than what weve seen in the past, and then the endgame is lame as shit. something's missing when there is no longer a meaningful journey to get there. to me, its really one of the things making this game feel shallow. might as well have us all start at 100? yuck.
but i agree that blizzard seems to cater much more to the casual then to the tryhard like poe is doing. i also think they are choosing too, to a certain extent, knowing their content sucks, or is targeted at a different audience. however you want to look at it...
for s5, im not looking forward to starting in helltides right away to level. the same mind numbing thing i will be playing once i reach 100 anyway. im not going to skip the campaign this season just for the sake of having something different to do. similar argument too with the lilith statues. i was somewhat surprised and that they caved and let us keep the renowned from one season to the next. its again one less thing we need to do because gamers just complained, which just gets us to a shitty end game even sooner.
