Blizzard is charging a box price for D4 which, to me, means it should have a complete single player game experience that ends with killing Lilith (or Diablo, because of course). Consumer pays box price for game from start to finish. They should not expect unlimited endgame replayability...

Bro, you read my fucking mind. @Xevy I spoiler'd a few screenshots from the POE forums where it showed about 50-75 different builds from across the classes. There was no response to that. They are spouting the same shit about us white knighting POE and ignoring the fact that we want D4 to...

I hope she raises 50 partly so that those smug "economic correspondent" fucks who predicted dropping interest rates to save some mismanaged banks get BTFO.

Who is upset? You are on a message board full of shit-slinging arguments and somehow expect the thread devoted to a really popular series to be different? No one in this thread gives a fuck if you like Diablo; in fact, the people complaining here are complaining because they wanted it to be...

There's a better solution...stop printing goddamn money and start taking the government to task about cutting spending.

I love how all these Blizzard nut huggers are accusing some in here of being POE fanboies when it was our criticism of how bland and shallow D4 looks that made them start wailing and gnashing their teeth about how that is just "polish for the masses."

Off the top of my head: Currency is used for both transactions and crafting Support gems change skills in interesting ways; new ones added all the time League mechanics push all kinds of boundaries that other games won't even touch. Endgame bosses change yearly in a whole new way and always...

Ok man, show me the innovation. What is the new system or way to play the game that D4 just introduced that blew your fucking mind. I'm willing to admit that I'm wrong.

You are going to have to defend at least a bit of this statement. I played a slam build that was three different warcries to enhance the slam in different ways and another warcry to shatter the spikes made by the slam. One button active? I fucking wish.

Do you know why people go back to POE over and over? Because they innovate every goddamn quarter. Sometimes it is great, sometimes it is absolute shit; but it is ALWAYS new and different. This game cannot even shake the feeling that it isn't that much different from a game released 11...

God I hate this game already. Weekly crafting mat gate. Fuck off Blizzard.

There would be more build variety and greater interest if you could trade items with interesting affixes so that people could try out different builds.

The only way this game makes money is nostalgia. It does nothing to improve or innovate on the genre as a whole.

I know this is rhetorical but I'm going to answer anyways. It has escort quests because Blizzard is an uninspired, slowly dying corpse of a company with "talent" picked for characteristics other than being able to design good and compelling gameplay. If this game was named Mestiphon and was...

Same here, and he cannot skip cutscenes. They had 11 years to fix that bullshit. Game is trash, I'm out.

Were they tradeable when you picked them up?

In this world humans are in constant contact with the infected but cannot make the mental leap that protecting yourselves from being bitten or scratched should be THE MOST IMPORANT THING since humans get turned if they are bitten or scratched. That is suspension of disbelief beyond reason and...

This is an absolute shit take. There were games designed THIRTY years ago that still hold great lessons that are ignored today because.... reasons.

The worst part about this show, which is also the worst part of The Walking Dead, is that they never ever show human intelligence vs. the major threat. Every single time the infected (or zombies) show up, someone gets bitten in the struggle. There is never a point where the humans show...

Pimento cheese, while delicious, is a spread not a dip. While you can drag crackers through it, there is no way something that can be put on a sandwich could also be called a dip.

It's like Texas shared some common area, like a border, with a group of people who were already doing something quite similar.

How is there not a 10-page derail on the very idea that QUESO was *not* born in Arkansas? Ironically, my wife's parents were in town from Vancouver near the Super Bowl and when I said I was making queso they looked at me very funny. I had to explain that it was melted cheese, diced tomatoes...

Wait, I thought the Beta was only for pre-orders?

Honestly, I'm in the same boat. It looks good but so far I have refused the serpents' temptation.

@BoozeCube pre-order from Wokey McWokist corporation? For shame.

I think you misread the post; I said my bank would grow at 1% per year, not that I would offer 1% loans. I would offer market rate, competitive loans but my goal would not be to grow at 10% quarter over quarter or whatever investors expect out of corporations these days.

I respect the farmer take here. I am also one of those people that prefer the Popeyes or KFC chicken sandwich to CFA's because when you get a good one they are twice as good; but your rolling the dice because just like @Mist said it is about a 10% chance you get the legendary one.

It is highly constrained capitalism, and what we have now is better than a 3rd world "bank" where you go instead of hiding your valuables in your rectum and are just praying that the "bank" doesn't just leave with everyone's money every day. But if we are going to have a ton of regulations...

It seems like the new mulligan rule has really evened that out a ton. Sure, you still start down a card, but the times you see people mull to 5 or 4 is a fraction of what it was in the past.

Someone please nitpick my basic banking knowledge and assumptions here. I saw the new rule that the backstop would protect deposits but not investors and creditors. This seems like an ideal situation (even as a huge proponent of the capitalist risk/reward structure) because it protects the...

From LinkedIn, for investor idiots like myself.

Blazin, I was just about to come in here and do my normal takedown of this drivel by posting their profit margin to go along with the meaningless revenue numbers....but these motherfuckers are averaging 20 cents on every dollar of revenue and cannot justify more headcount or safety precautions...

At least he also posted this absolutely true statement:

Fuck these motherfuckers. Bailouts mean that every single taxpayer is going to foot the bill for a bank's poor management instead of just the people who CHOSE to bank there? US COMPANIES ARE NOT OWNED BY THE GOVERNMENT AND SHOULD GET NO MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT. I swear most people think...

Isn't this what a healthy market looks like? A business makes poor financial decisions, loses investor money, and then is forced to sell at a huge discount to a well-run competitor? Then, the market dissects the reasons why it happened and (ideally) other similar businesses do not repeat those...

Legacy is boring as fuck anyways; the game is based around 4 copies of each card, but you can only have 1 of these cards because they are so fucking powerful that 4 could ensure turn 1 wins in 70% of games played. Who wants to do that?

I love that with the impending release of Diablo 4 they felt the need in that announcement to link the dev diary from 12 years ago explaining why gold and gold sinks are shit. It is as true now as it was then.

They need you to stop and hit CTRL to look at that piece of loot just like they need you to use a 3rd party loot filter to hide the absolutely disgusting amount of useless items that drop on each screen of the game. It is all to hide the things that the OG team refuse to take out of the game...
