First season back since D2R release

Yeah I’m sure many wouldn’t play it, because they’re too used to the game being fast paced because of botters. It’s already fast enough with the up to 24 years of game knowledge that players have acquired that makes their progress that much more optimized.

The idea of spending more than a week or even a few days of play in a game without having everything “done” is foreign to the average gamer these days.

I guess I touched a nerve. lol

Sure there is, you have to start with a fresh set of characters. What you are really asking for is for items that you find to have value, like an investment. Which my advice still stands, if that’s what you want in a video game than I suggest going to Wall Street.

Gotta protect the precioussssss…

Good for you, big dawg.

You seem to have issues with reading comprehension. Clearly stated before many times we want ladder resets that actually reset. Obtaining items with FG bypasses the reset. Every item earned each ladder reset should be found in that ladder by playing the game not a forum with imaginary currency that you can use on a ladder reset when you have no in game items to trade. SSF mode + ladder is the easiest option to fix the problem for the players looking to play ladders legitimately.

Then why do you keep describing wanting a game about stock trading?

Fake news. Qoute it.

Have you ever killed Baal by yourself? Have you ever done Ubers solo?

Yep. But that’s not saying much they are not very easy.

You seem like you don’t even play the game.

Running level 1 to hell Baal solo is not easy.

Also, the economy is the same as other seasons idk what you’re talking about. You just don’t play the game I guess.

Sounds like you don’t play the game. Let’s deal with some facts bud. Do you think a JAH rune had the same value on release and season 1 as it does right now in the current season? Because if you do, you’re full of it.

Im not sure how much a jah rune cost in season 1.

Every season I watch its money value fluctuate. Have you ever found a Jah rune? Do you know where to look to find its drop chance?

Quoted.
You’re asking for a stock trading game.

Has nothing to do with stock trading. Nice try. Imagine quoting when the quote literally has SSF which doesn’t allow trading. Lololololol.

Exactly. Stop asking for it, and maybe enjoy the game?
Seasons reset just fine.

However, it is not enough to have just one SSF mode. It also locks you out from other gamers.
So a private loot in online game with others would have to be introduced.
In other words, loot that only drops for you personally and that is not tradable for everyone present, except for potions, scrolls, ammunition, i.e. everything that has no real value anyway, except that it is important for an RPG to create depth. I find ammunition, for example, to be a very important thing in RPGs and getting rid of it to be a blight.
Otherwise this is pretty nonsensical, as you could then also play an offline game, or simply online, but absolutely in your own games.

In addition, if such a mode were to be there, the game would need at least for the ladder, but a drop value adjustment.
The good stuff and high runes drop far too badly.
It’s been almost 25 years since D2 has existed and I’ve never found all the items myself. Ok, I haven’t played for 25 years, but let’s say at least 7 years. That’s ridiculous.
The runes should also be able to be stacked and crafted up better and easier in the cube.
I would also tend to introduce rune words in the middle range, i.e. up to Gul/Vex, which would make the transition to Hell much easier. Otherwise you’ll fail in Hell because of a small beetle if it’s immune to something and you don’t have any wide builds thanks to the synergy madness.

The question would then arise as to whether immunities really make sense to this extent?

So generally speaking, it’s not that simple.
Basically, D2R would have to be broken up and normalized again anyway, away from the syngeria excess, away from the immunities and then break them again with items and lower them with more items.
This is a spiral that is simply bad and leads away from the actual principle.

Imagine quoting an idea that doesn’t allowing trading and calling it trading. Lawl. Someone hire this guy he’s a genius.

They did. Its why I earn enough money to afford living in the richest county in the US as a single adult.

Seasons reset just fine. If you want items to have value so that you can trade, then you clearly should go play Wall Street. Just because others use FG or whatever to obtain their items doesn’t impact your gameplay at all.

hahahahhaha.

We get it you’re a FG/RMT scrub.

No need I’m blessed to own two businesses and not have to slave for someone else.

Economy is indeed horrible compared to pre-season, season 1 etc.
Personally I’d also be excited for ssf ladder but would have mixed feelings since I like to play with other people also.

I’d pay seasonal pass fee for ladders if it would make blizz do updates/balance changes and actually be effective in banning botters.
