I stopped playing so if you’ve played long enough to find others “can’t” , feel free to share them here.
If there was trading and items weren’t tied to your level sure. This might even encourage me to play an alt.
Am i the only one that remembers finding something like Titan or Homonculus in D2 on your main and think “Gee, it would be great to start an Amazon or a Necro”
You have none of this in D4 in fact it actively discourages me from creating an alt char.
This right here, out of everything in this game, is the one that aggravates me the most. The Diablo series is supposed to be ARPGs. You know what really takes the action out of action role-playing game? Cooldowns. It slows the gameplay, limits creativity, and just generally brings the overall difficulty level down. Serves no purpose other than to stall for time.
