This is why I don't play any of Blizzard's games anymore. All they want to do is monetize every single little thing. Their secret to greed is: 1) convince people to buy an overpriced game 2) convince people to play the overpriced game and buy overpriced things in the game. Blizzard can go suck it until they knock it off. I haven't played Diablo since Diablo 2. There are plenty of wonderful games like Diablo that don't pull this shit. The Torchlight games are fun, for example. I'd say even better than Diablo. Grim Dawn is also awesome. No need for Diablo, really, at least in my life. The same can be said for a lot of their other money grubbing games. Hearthstone can be replaced by a huge number of games that don't try to get players to buy packs of cards., for example. All the alternatives can be modified with no issues and you can get mods through Steam.
Loved Grim Dawn!
