YES. D4 vanilla was best. S0 was the best , since S3 it was going downhill.
I wont be even buying expac this time which makes me rly sad, coz D4 story was best so far(of all D games). I refuse to play story one handed with one eye closed with loot showering from everywhere while superbuffed.
I think reason for this are current players, they just different… and devs who listen to them…prolly their player base is going up since launch…i have no other explantion why they turned 180°
