shutting down most central servers is a death sentence anyway. I'm not putting another decade of grinding into a private server when my Diablo 3 characters are gone.
just like the market wants nothing but superhero movies? This doesn't work anything like a free market. people would buy full games if they where available, devs just figured out they could drip feed the content and make significantly more money at the expense of a good product so you don't get to choose the good product because it doesn't exist. That's not the market choosing crap it's the market makers only providing crap.
How many diverse representational check boxes are drug out on the street and shot so they can sell their uninteresting dross in China?
They don't have values they have a marketing strategy; and it's because of that marketing strategy that those check boxes are totally 1 dimensional, boring, and replaceable.
Actual diversity doesn't look or feel like a personal attack.
Go watch She-ra and tell me the gay dads aren't integral to Bow's character and try to tell me that isn't the exception to the vast majority of cardboard cutouts whose ONLY character trait is a single DEI check box.

Just thought I’d share something I thought was pretty interesting. I have a mother in law who is… well let’s just say she’s a stereotypical older mom who doesn’t own a computer, just an iPad.

I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.
Diablo 3 was fucking terrible about this. anytime a good combo was discovered they would nerf it. it's a single player game, just let me have my overpowered bullshit.
