This. I’ll be the last one to defend any of these megacorps but folks calling it greed are being reductive. These are publicly traded companies which means their loyalty is to their shareholders and their #1 goal is to make them more money than they made them last quarter. So it’s more than greed, it’s their job within this capitalist system. They have to do that every quarter for as long as they exist. The only ways to do it are to increase revenue or decrease costs. If they can’t make enough money they have to fire people. That’s the world we’ve built.

But it’s not only about making more profit than last quarter, but also the amount the profits increased by has to be higher than the amount they increased by the quarter before last. That’s how you end up with companies seeing record profits and still laying people off. They made more than last quarter, but only 2% more. The quarter before they made 3% more so now people have to go. It’s insane.

I was so pumped for this until I saw your comment and realized there’s a 0% chance this doesn’t end up exactly like that. :/

For the lazy:

“That class has to be the Spiritborn. Blizzard hasn’t acknowledged the mistake it made in early October when an internal testing version of the game was updated and made briefly available to former beta testers for Diablo 4’s launch. The few who managed to download it found text in the files that points to the Spiritborn class and its abilities, along with other hints at upcoming features coming to the game.

The leaked build doesn’t paint a full picture of the Spiritborn class, but here’s what we can assume from the text:

Spiritborn will use glaives as weapons Instead of mana or fury, they will use a dual resource system to cast skills The Spiritborn class mechanic will have something to do with “deities” Spiritborn skill names suggest they’ll have a pet or minions of some kind”

Exactly what I was thinking. I’m still running on the fumes of gfe+moonlight while thats still working. Hopefully Steam RP has taken cues from all the recent competition.

But as with all RP options it’s probably still gonna be a ymmv situation.

What’s the rush on appreciating their patience so soon? You don’t have to do it day one. It’s not going anywhere and you can appreciate older patiences in the meantime.

Possibly the best ‘remastered’ pun yet
