When was the last time you smiled while playing this game?

Random Dungeons - repetitive, grind wisps just so you can craft DOUBLE sockets or get the stats you don’t need.

Shadow Wars - RARELY anyone from lower shadow clans show up for Shadow War. Icing on the cake is you waiting 5+ minutes for the war to start when it’s 50 vs 0.

WB Events - The ultimate CHORE! Not sure who is having a great time killing the same bosses twice weekly for months.

Battlegrounds - LOPSIDED matches MOST of the time. The icing on the cake is you wasting 6-7 minutes after you land in a lopsided match.

Alley of Blood, Conqueror - Besides the 10 min+ queue times, F2P/Casuals LOVE this mode! but 80% of the time they’ll just leave if they’re losing.

Hidden Lairs, Verge, Ereban - Grind those gems! Once you hit your secondary stat goals, MM will just place you against players with 2-3x the amount of secondaries that you have. Have fun!

Resonance - Grind resonance for those awesome wings! Hit 4k reso? Here’s a bg match with 7k+ resonance players!

Trust me, I really want to like this game, but it seems like reddit, official forums, DI partners mostly speak negatively about the game. I understand that it’s a game and it’s optional to play, but there’s always been that lingering hope that the game would eventually improve…

In fairness all the Diablo games in the entire genre had a large element of grind to them. If you don’t like grind then the Diablo franchise isn’t for you.

I do however agree with your points regarding

  1. BG. Matching is a complete mess even after many past updates from Blizz to try to balance it better.

  2. The inane waiting around for timers

I’d also like to add one

  1. Shadow quests.

Have never been revised, added or improved since release. It’s the same old 4 or 5 on constant rotation that have you go to the same two or 3 zones over and over despite the game having about 10 major zones on release and 3 more major zones added since it started. /thumbouteyes
