I’m a lifelong Diablo fan, so I’ll probably pick this up next week. One thing that bugs me is that folks keeps saying “it’s just cosmetics”. To me, this ignores the fact that, since Diablo 3, your character’s look is part of the fun. That cool armor you just found looks cool too. Now I worry that the gear is going to look boring so that you’re subtly nudged in the direction of buying cosmetics.
Basically, I still want to be able to play dress-up.
The initial gear isnt bad looking at all. I get that some people dont like that its “Just Cosmetics” But in the end, it is. I think as long as we are not hiding power and stats behind a paywall its fine.
I mean they have a promotion with KFC to buy Chicken Sandwiches and get cosmetics. Its goofy and dumb, but thats like a paywall too. Not a huge deal in my opinion but everyone has their own.
I am loving D4 so far, and i dont plan on spending real $$ on any of the cosmetics personally. I do have the battle-pass version of the game, But i like battle passes as it gives me extra activities to do when im enjoying the game, for some more unlocks.
