What is Ruthless Mode? It’s a separate, opt-in mode so won’t affect anyone other than the players interested in playing it and desire scarcity and challenge. Ruthless can be selected by ticking a checkbox in the character selection screen. It significantly increases the difficulty and changes the playstyle of the game by opting-in to extreme item scarcity and various other changes such as traditionally weak items are felt as valuable and lvling to max is an achievement.
If you want to blast please just ignore this thread, it doesn’t affect you in any capacity since the normal game will remain completely unaffected.
If the free game can have this mode, why can’t the company with billions of dollars and the battlepasses and the expansions and the microtransactions??

Because it’s not their focus and they don’t care. They could do a lot of things if they really wanted to or felt it was a priority. For some reason that logic goes out the window when people rant about things that aren’t happening.
Fair enough. I guess it’s the playerbase that needs to start asking for the right things. You see all these threads about the game being easy, braindead, needing challenge, etc. At least the players that want this kind of experience should know exactly what they want and start asking Blizzard to implement it in D4.
Given enough players wanted the addition of Ruthless Mode, Blizzard would prioritise it.
Just go play POE, a game that already exists and already has ruthless mode.
Stop asking blizzard to just make games that have already been made.

Wtf are you talking about, troll? Ruthless Mode is a… mode not a different game.
And yes, I’ll definitely ask for what I feel should be in my game of choice.
no cause then crybaby muffin steve will cry about it
That’s the thing though. Crybaby muffin Steve won’t be affected by it the same way he is not being affected by Hardcore Mode. It’s an opt-in mode.
really?
how’d you come up with ruthless mode then huh? You just make it up yourself?
Yes, in fact I did. Me, along numerous other players. We knew what we wanted and how we wanted to play D4, we just didn’t have a name for it. By coincidence, another game happened to have implemented all these ideas in a mode called Ruthless.
Since I like the name, and since Hardcore is already taken, that’s what I’m calling it.
I think you should just go play the game that already came up with the idea you stole instead of begging blizzard to waste their time coddling your competitive spoonfeeding needs
Competitive?? Are you for real? Wtf is your problem? GTFO!
Did I say something confusing?
There’s nothing competitive about Ruthless Mode, you troll. Idk wtf is your problem here. Why do you even care?
They have more important things to to work on than a stupid mode a hundred people will play and then die and then quit. Or watch their streamer play and then tune out when he dies.
Other games already deliver the experience you desire.
Like what? Make the game even easier for you so you’re done in 30 minutes? Spoonfeed you more legendaries maybe from lvl1?
Bro is shadowboxing right now
we get ruthless mode. Then 3 days later the crybabies will be back asking for a nerf.
“guys why is this hard mode I asked for so hard? why is nobody playing it? What the heck blizzard??”
Who cares what they say though? Is Hardcore Mode for everyone? No. You don’t see many people complaining about it.
Because less people play it. Because its dumb.
