  • We added even more pointless legendary items that won't drop after level 30
  • Legendary items now have an increased chance to roll stats that would only work on your other characters
  • The stash from every character across all Battle net games from every player will now be loaded into memory (Player have been asking for an improved stash since D2, so we are happy to deliver.)
  • Seasons will introduce more bugs that will be quickly fixed with patches that contain more bugs
  • Infinite CC will now be replaced with random suicides. All spells now have a 5% chance to kill you.
  • Your battle pass token rewards dropped from 666 to 333
  • Dozens more useless unique items will be included that you have zero chance of ever getting. We worked hard on this one.
  • You now get to pay yearly for promised improvements we will absolutely never deliver on
  • Sorcs can now teleport completely out of the open world. Previously, this was limited to teleporting inside of walls and under the ground.
  • Barbarians are getting removed. We are replacing the barb with a paladin that is so broken, you will be begging for your Barb back.
  • All useless skills will be buffed 200%
  • We are including gem stacking! Since you really don't need more than 20 gems per character, have zero sell value and have tons of weird stats, we wanted to give players a way to collect thousands of them.

Blizzard would never be as successful as it is without community feedback! Thanks for giving us loads of creative suggestions that we will never, ever implement.

I know Blizzard is a soulless automaton, but I find the game fun. I got to lv 100, and a ghost horsey, and a pvp horse blanket, and did Nightmare Tier 80. If season 2 adds a new horsey and horse blanket I'll probably play it too.

I found it fun at first as well! It's how poorly managed the patches and balancing is that turned me off. There are just so many small problems that could have been fixed prior to release. Worst of all, they are trying to turn Diablo into WoW.

That makes sense, I played in late July and through August so the only patch I lived through was the monster CC nerf. I was still pretty successful at standing on fire enchanted explosions and spider webs so it went mostly unnoticed.

I suppose I feel more open to nerfs or buffs for player characters at the moment because, in its current state, I am done with the game. No change to game no return of me. We'll see what the future holds. I played Destiny 1 and 2 for a while so maybe I am just a video game codependent or something.
