Solid point. But imo marginal propensity to consume would outweigh the increase in price from 40 to 100.

If you make it 100 a key then i think the only people buying keys will be botters who can easily pay that.

bots = make money if you are doing it right

Bots can't be stopped. Simple. No buts and ifs.

So, make each cd keys $100.

At least that will deter some plebs from mass botting like how it is now with $10/key.

It won't fully deter everyone but at least it will reduce the numbers by 80%

the plebs wont buy mass keys is my point thus decreasing the number of bots? I dont know i have a feeling $100 is not a lot for non botters who is just buying one key. the people coming back for the nostalgia are all like 30+ and have a job i think 100 is not too bad. I dont buy hardly any games and i would still pay 100 for d2r

Bots always get banned eventually, I'm sure they probably don't care about d2 botters right now with how many people are buying multiple keys to run 10+ bots on a 2 decade old game.

What if my and my brother want to play the same game ?

Yeah
This deters legitimate players from purchasing the game :D


The fact you are actually thinking logically and replying to this like it's sensible is worrying

game ain't worth $100 base price to someone who isn't a D2 neckbeard. They'd only sell like 500 copies if they tried to charge that much.
Kind of surprised they want $40 for it. Gonna gift to a few friends when we're closer to release but I don't really expect them to stick with the game. It's an old man's game, even if you make the graphics prettier.

If more pressure was put on blizzard to fix botting they would allocate more resources to do so.
My suggestion is to make it a habit to do 1 post per week on the official forum to bring the issue to the forefront of everyones attention.


this (But only if botting is an issue when d2r hits.. I dont think it will be.)
