For me, i was burned by Diablo 3 (at launch), but I caved on D4 since the aesthetic did look more inline with what I wanted from the series, and a lot of time has passed, so I was hoping they had learned from D3… but no. So I also feel that D4 was the real dipping point for me, where it’s no longer an isolated incident.
I know people can chime in with the many times I should have learned this before D4, but I mostly didn’t actually buy those games. Plus, I already know it was dumb to buy D4, in retrospect, I just really love ARPGs and D2 (which they did manage to Resurrect really nicely).
