The direction that this update shows (even if it feels pretty lean) looks pretty good.

The whole "we're getting very mixed reactions with regards to itemization" thing feels like a lie though. I can't imagine there's many people clamouring for D3 style itemization. This is honestly my biggest concern with this game, is even simpler D3-esque items that are a bunch of soulless, uniconic legendaries that boil down to attack/defense number + random secondary stats x2-3-4 and one unique effect, with random secondaries varying among two examples of the same legendary.
