I love this game and the remaster I think is brilliant. However that one decision to not have instanced loot I think actually killed the game. It’s most certainly dead now and nobody every wants to play together simply because of the loot system. Here is to hoping someone over there puts the pipe down and adds instanced loot so I could actually play my char with some people before the game just shuts down.
Funny watching people just spam click for loot. As for how to implement instanced loot in this game I do not know. I just know that nobody is playing like this. It’s just a lobby of bots and a few games in the list now. DED.

Personalized loot would be so much better, after say 30 seconds it can go to free for all clicking.

The game is dead because JUST like LOD it dies down at the end of the season and then spikes when the new season begins.

Interesting. A 22 year old game that is still being played to this day is “killed”?

Lol Ninja looters that sell gear for RMT in video games should really get a better job. This company is good at breeding it though. Better at that then making video games these days that’s for sure.
Its a great game but with one wrong change, the game can be ruined. Remember D3 launch RMT? I member. Blizzard had good intentions by keeping players in game instead of item sellers but RMT was a failure and really highlighted the dark side of Diablo 2’s loot. Thankfully D3 was fixed with loot 2.0. The truth is, there is no perfect solution. PLoot would be exploited by botters anyway. The good items are so rare, thats what drives people to take what they can. Remove this aspect and you potentially kill the game. Like Diablo 2, D3 evolved from one game play model to another. D2 was a very different experience pre 1.07 and continued to evolve to an mmo like hack n slash. D3 took an arcade style approach and i very much appreciate it for what it is, a very accessable rpg that respects your time yet is deep enough for you to sink countless hours in.
Let’s give these people instanced loot but, lower loot drop rates. Or increase? Which ever is the worst. 
Instanced loot is meh, they should implement PoE item allocation instead:

get friends and play with them? then you can share the loot when good stuff drops.
pretty easy to find good communities on discord.
Or play single player offline only - you get /players x and you keep all the loot 
with instanced loot people wont play with each other because theyll have access to 1/players of the loot. doesnt change people playing together.
