I was literally able to search all of the T3 weapons, armor, and charms on the HC MP all in 1 click search each :cry:
There has to be more out there than this?

1 player alone can not fix what has happened here. 10-35 players online at any given time 8-35 players are SC.
We need a higher player base

Yup... HC is dead ... oh damn, I forgot about my trade thread... :rofl: been elsewhere for 3 days.

You will notice that a few people on SC will always make a mention to new players to move from HC and go SC.

That's hardly even the worst of it. You could search the entirety of one of those categories, all the weapons on HC in one click. Sometimes it takes weeks for the mutables I find to sell

So what's wrong, why did HC die?

I've done some HC climbs now and there was no problem, even without a warlock and most of the group using ~120 ee items ( or less ) we had no trouble going to MQ.

Where did all of the HC player base go? There are dozens and dozens of people with good enough gear that don't play.

The minute the game became a little bit harder than what it used to be, everyone decided to quit?

Were everybody used to going for 100 vitality while using 250 ee gear so they can afk or watch movies the whole climb with basically 0% chance of dying?

Now when all it takes is to pay a little attention, mostly at high levels and mostly if the group isn't too well equipped, all of your "Pro veteran mancore" player base just poofed to the thought of the slightest chance of dying..

Actually game is still easy af. Most players have just been doing other things. Nobody ever went 100 vita and afk during climbs, or maybe i was lucky to play with others who actually clicked

Pro veteran mancore here

I don’t think the game difficulty (or lack thereof depending on who you talk to) is the reason hardcore is so dead. I think it’s more about the drop rates. It is soooo exceptionally difficult to find good items that is is not worth spending all that time and fg to look for decent gear and then lose it the moment you die. One of the reasons diablo is STILL popular is because the items are not that difficult to buy/find so in hardcore or soft core people are able to experiment with different builds/strategies and if the character dies it’s not difficult to re-gear and replay another character.
