I’m actually advocating groups sharing their loot with others while increasing the quantity but they will have a different instance than neutral players who didn’t join a party. Details like assists counting in or loot eligible distance pulls this idea back. Entire thing needs a small tweak even if for the smallest change.
We will stand strong and fight for changes… in the end the majority will win !
Personal Loot is the Justice we need in Diablo 2 !
No more toxicity, hacking and oppression for loot !
WE WILL WIN MY BROTHERS !

Same for me I do not have time for goofballs in my game.
I really enjoy this comments, It is good to see someone with functioning braincells. 
Good example.

This is basically why I stick to offline. I don’t want some scumbag pickit-user hoovering up the loot before my client has even registered it on the game screen for me.
That then leads further to why I probably won’t ever buy D2R, since it will have the exact same issues with pickit users because its retaining the same asinine loot system.

I sure hope we will get something like Plugy for D2R too.
Anyway, yeah, bring on automatic loot rolling for D2R.
If we do, I might actually consider buying D2R (especially if by then the price has come down to something more reasonable).
speak for yourself,
NO GAMEPLAY CHANGES! esp. to the loot system.
There is a reason ppl played diablo for decades.

And reasons a plenty why many stopped… or at least stopped playing online.
The arguments over D2’s popularity swing both ways, so it’s hardly a convincing argument simply because some people are still playing after 20 years, especially when you consider the only revenue Blizzard sees from D2R is box sales.
Selling D2R to only the hardcore D2-thou-shalt-change-nothing-purists isn’t a recipe for big sales numbers.
D2R would benefit from optional changes which can be toggled on or off at will by the customer that allow customers to play games easily with other customers who favour the same options.
You could happily continue playing your free for all loot games, you could, if Blizzard did it probably, at a single click, and for all time, filter out those games using assigned loot, hell it could even be the default on the game search lobby.
Therefore you would have to do absolutely nothing to permit other players who so choose to use assigned loot for their games, no extra loot would be required for assigned loot games, so there’d be no impact on the economy for anyone else and therefore you have no reasonable argument against it.
Edit: And by the way, I think there’s no chance of assigned loot being implemented in the game any more, it’s too late now for VV to do it - but they should have done it, and if they had done it D2R absolutely would have sold more copies (and that’s a FACT since I know for myself I won’t be buying it due to the continued use of free for all loot amongst other things).

After awesome people like Greendude created Path of Diablo with mapping and stuff yes. That you can play better alone, but tell me one thing please, if you’d join a completly new game (for you) which was remastered (but you never heard of/played) and then you play it, but the only lobbies you find are exp baal runs where a bot (or the cheater woken up plays with pickit what’s even quicker and worse) yoinks every item from you and all the other players, how is that fun for you? (as a new player experiencing that)

The harsh truth right there…
I still don’t understand why they won’t give us personal loot as an option…
Shared loot creates toxicity,botting and encourages solo play…

BUT BUT… THE MAJORITY (10 purists) WANT IT SO THEY CAN FEEL SPECIAL AGAIN with their cheating

I mean https://twitter.com/RodFergusson/status/1425556654075138048 they even don’t do a ladder from the get go to test things aKa give the cheaters time to take of the dust from their cheating tools, actually nice of them 
It’s less about running on current systems (LoD already runs on windows 10 pretty well), and more about framerate and aspect ratio, the real deal breakers for a lot of people (in the case of D1, there’s the beelzebub mod that does 60fps widescreen and it’s crazy that it feels better to play and control the characters than D2 just for the framerate alone). Some mods for D2 do widescreen (I think PD2) but I haven’t seen anything that does 60fps yet. For that alone I’ll already be happy for D2R (not that I mind changes)
This being optional would be the golden middle path. Purists can than play whit their precous pickit program and follow around bots. And others can enjoy a cheat free gameplay enviroment. I’m not saying there are no decent people among diehard D2 fans, but to be honest, most of them are d****.

YEP. And this will be the downfall, unless they do something OR let Greendude and other amazing modders accomplish what they aren’t capable off. Since (correct me if I am wrong) we have a graph update, 2 QoLs (1 auto gold / 2 shared stash), but everything else is just the same Endgame beeing Ubertrist/diablo and looting a almost perfect griffon eye f.e not jaw dropping and you don’t feel joy, cause all those cheating frogs ruin the game and market (again).

If you hear what was said in context, it was clear that what he meant to say was account bound as he just said soul bound a couple of words earlier.
Simply ask yourself how personal loot has any bearing whatsoever on mitigating the effects of duping. The person speaking misspoke.
