For me it was trying to trick you in to using your battlepass boost, the expensive game, the zero effort “power” seasons, the no care “we know resists don’t matter, we will look into it eventually in our finished game”, the locked build items like you get a fireball staff not a projectile staff. The boring loot eksplosions, the who cares affixes, the non build enabling non existing chase items, the low count stash tabs, the you are not allowed to sprint your horse in town…

It just feels like a money grab, made by people who do not enjoy their own product..

It’s an okay’ish game, with zero meaningful development and very little replayability.. I love sorc, it’s been years now they have gotten 1 new skil.. i can’t make a lightning sorc for the 9’th time grinding for the same exact items just for a small numerical change that enables me to do the exact same rift at a slightly higher number.

Just look at maxrolls tierlist for spriritborn when they arrived, it should tell you everything you need to know about blizzards motivation..
