This is not how timed loot works. Google search path of exile and timed loot.
Iām not saying that having Diablo 3 version of personal loot equals to having the same high drop rate that Diablo 3 had. What I am saying though, is that having Diablo 3 version of personal loot equals to having more loot dropping in general in comparison to shared loot.

Youāre the expert why donāt you explain it to me?
Did you play the early days of Diablo 3 when the auction house existed? The drop rates were extremely low.
Also, the loot system (personal or FFA) is not the same concept as the loot drop rate.
I did and they werenāt as low as Diablo 2. I ended up selling a lot of good stuff on the RMAH in the short time that it was up. 
Iāve played Diablo 3 since the game launched, so yes, I did play during the auction house. However Iām not comparing Diablo 2 Resurrected droprate to early Diablo 3. Iām comparing the number of items dropped in a Diablo 2 Resurrected game with personal loot enabled to a game with shared loot instead. Again, if weāre talking about Diablo 3 personal loot, then a party game with personal loot will yield more items than shared loot, unless there are adjustments made.

As explained repeatedly, personal loot advocates are requesting the same number of total drops irrespective of the game being personal or FFA loot.
It is not 8X more in a personal loot game in comparison to a similar 8 player FFA game.
Which is a point in my argument, not yours, since D2ās loot system would be far better than D3ās if all you did is flip the āPersonal Lootā switch.
And as I already explained, Iām speaking strictly about Diablo 2 Resurrected having Diablo 3 version of personal loot (where everyone gets their own loot). Iām not talking about whatever loot system youāre referring to.
All it requires is for D2R players to understand that loot of a certain color text is temporarily reserved for a few seconds. It does not require any new loot notification system whatsoever.
Surely D2 players can quickly come to understand that, in about the same amount of time the loot would be reserved for too - mere seconds.
Well, I donāt want D3ās loot system then. If thatās what you want.
I want a proper personal loot system in D2R.
Tell the developers who would have to totally redesign the loot system in the core game, that all they have to do is āthrow a switchā, so that a tiny portion of forum people who will probably rage quit the first time they get PKād can be happy. 
If anything Iād prefer Diablo 2 R to take as little influence from Diablo 3 as possible (save for some QoL functions).

So you are stating that you are"not tlking about whatever loot system youāre referring to" but you continue to say the system that I am not talking about is bad. Why do you keep referring in your replies to me to a system that I am not talking about? Why do I care if a system that I am not talking about is bad in your mind?
Actually, Blizzard has already specifically and explicitly asked its players whether it is interested in personal loot to be in D2R at launch. The developers must know something about whether this can be implemented or not and the timeframe.
A -freaking- men dood! 
Using personal loot in D2, the personal loot that virtually everyone who has been advocating personal loot for, has nothing whatsoever to do with D3ās loot system.
Can you specifically point to that? Iāve seen all of the QA stuff and I very specifically do not remember them considering a personal loot option. Maybe Iām wrong? Show me. Is it on the Forums that I canāt post in? Because I havenāt visited it for obvious reasons.
Search āBlizzard screenshot surveyā on the forum. Then check the 6th image in the link.
Do I get a decoder ring with that? 
Youāre the one who first responded to my post when I was talking about a Diablo 3 version of personal loot. As I said before, when I talk about personal loot, Iām literally talking about something similar to Diablo 3. Since youāre not, I honestly donāt know why you keep responding to me then: because as I said much earlier:
In case, explanations is in order. Iām neither for nor against your idea of personal loot. My opposition of personal loot is if the personal loot is akin to Diablo 3ās personal loot, whereas everyone gets their own loot, unless once again the drops are altered a bit to prevent personal loot based games from becoming more rewarding than shared loot based games.
