MMOEXP : It is not clear just what Diablo 4 will be selling

[Ludwighench]

I also am uncertain how I think about shared world areas in a series that I have appreciated farming for more than a decade today. I am wondering if it's optional to have those instances with other gamers, or if it's going to be like Destiny where you literally cannot load into patrol zones by yourself.You can now ride mounts in Diablo 4 Gold, and also with this big, giant open world you'll be travelling less by going from teleporter to teleporter, and more by riding your mount around. I'm wondering how that will affect speed farming functions and only getting from point A to point B isn't a terribly interesting part of the sport, and I wonder if the entire idea of mounts was made just so...Diablo could sell mounts.

This was just confirmed on flow. It is not clear just what Diablo 4 will be selling, but"decorative microtransactions" is enough to raise eyebrows in any loot-based game, simply ask Destiny, which is always at war with its playerbase within precisely the same matter. Diablo 3 boasted a transmorg system so that you could look however that did not cost anything and you wanted. However, what if Diablo 4 disagrees that with compensated"decorations" or something? That...would not be great. Diablo 3 finally started experimenting with selling items but nothing really stuck. It is possible these microtransactions may be nice and nothing, or else they might be a measure down from past games. We are going to see.

That would be Josh Mosqueira, who's largely credited with being the driving force behind turning Diablo 3 about from the Reaper of Souls, Loot 2.0 era. Sure, it was a group effort, but it was under his leadership, and like many other people, he has since left Blizzard. And should you want to go further back, the manager of Diablo 1 and 2, David Brevik, has not been with Blizzard since 2003. Diablo 4's manager is Luis Barriga, who comes from World of Warcraft and while he could be absolutely good, it does feel important the older directors are nowhere available for this new setup.

Following is a quote about fresh legendary and set equipment in Diablo from Barriga:"There is a team legendary from the demo that turns [the spell] fireball into a triple fireball spell. The difference may be thatyou knowa set right now in diablo 4 duriel mats gives you incentives more in the tens of thousands. I believe we're designing the game now for a tiny bit more restricted to avoid getting us into this super sonic electricity curve"
