25% on the DLC right now, still think it's too much.

There's no plate armor in game. They said they didn't want to make a paladin or a standard archetype because they wanted to unleash their creativity with the new class. The new class is 90% a D3 monk clone. CREATIVITY UNLEASHED.

I was interested in the class because it looked like an Aztec jaguar knight sort of thing. But instead of leaning into that and having something fairly unique and interesting, they made it a monk reskin. I couldn't believe it. What a waste.

The DLC is really rather pathetic. It adds very little... but if you're playing the game you might as well get it I guess. Definitely not value added though. Comparing it to RoS makes D4 look so bad. It could have been a major patch instead of an expansion. They've definitely had patches that added more meat to the game.

It's a social justice thing. Emphatically. Same disease that is going on in most AAA studios. It's not that they are incapable technically. It's an ideological choice. Just go look at Diablo Immortal's art direction. Soulless and generic, but much more attractive on a basic human level if you want hotness and "cool" factor.

But how many change you from fighting undead and demons to black sludge? I swear, it's like they were trying to make the Fern Gully ARPG.

I find it hilarious that they changed the demon who respawns other demons from "shaman" to "disseminator" or something like that.

Probably some gay guy on reddit was like "ugh, excuthe me, I'm 1/64th wampawaka indian and a registered ahuehueasca shaman, and I find this offensive", and the pink-haired wiccan landwhales at Blizzturd went "diablo mio! we wouldn't want to offend ANY religion or nation by associating them with fictional demons! change the name from "shaman" to "Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, please bless America" immediately! add more evil Cathedral of Light knights, and keep reminding that the angel INRIus was evil and insane and bigot and defeated by badass brat energy girlboss Lilith."
More people should agree with this post, it's poignant and funny.
