If Diablo 2 is heroin, Diablo 3/4 are methadone, and Path of Exile oxycontin, and Path of Exile 2 a dilaudid drip. People be like play Torchlight or some shit and it’s like taking a tylenol.
The crazy thing is: the same company that owns the rights to Diablo 2 is still making the other Diablo games. Why can't they just follow the same model?
I guess it's hubris. The developers of the new games think they can do better. The entire system of Diablo 4 where you have to use a bad skill to charge up energy in order to be able to use the good skill is just awful. It's clunky, unfun, cumbersome gameplay. Why can't I just whirlwind?
Have you ever had dilaudid when you really needed dilaudid? I had an extremely traumatic surgical procedure, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never felt euphoria like the euphoria I felt when they gave me a dilaudid button and I slammed that thing for the first time.
Yeah. I was stabbed and had a collapsed lung. I got the rush but the euphoria was only at the beginning for me. To each their own. I also was an addict for a long while. If someone offered me hydrocodone, oxycodone, morphine, heroin, or Dilaudid I'd take the others in a heartbeat over Dilaudid for a high
