I absolutely hate the idea of legendary extraction and any type of paragon system. D2 was near perfect all they had to do is take that format and make slight improvements with each new game. It’s weird to me they made such drastic changes.
D3 is worse today than it was at launch. At least then they had trading.
Yeah the Name choice "Paragon" is not really understandable as it has a horrible reputation - and rightfully so. Fortunately it has nothing to do with the Paragon System Diablo 3 introduced.
You are right tho, Diablo 2 is near perfect and just adding depth to that exact system, modernising it, including a few things here and there would create an insanely good game.
Somehow no one ever did that. Maybe games moved on and we didnt, I dont know. But overall I have to agree.
Less is more and that is why D2 is so good. Its complex inside of its simplicity.
Thats the genius part about it.
