in the book Blood, Sweat, and Pixels the chapter that deals with the disaster of Diablo 3's launch tells how one Blizzard player played for D2R Items literally hundreds of hours until they discovered a piece of legendary loot. The orange light finally emerged from an enemy, he approached the item only to find that his character couldn't even use it. The system of loot was so inherently broken that the pressure to grind for hours, followed by the relief of actually getting something special, was broken.

This was later changed to where you could only ever discover certain levels of loot that fit your character. Additionally, the rate at which early game famous items would be dropped higher. Therefore, even if the legendary items you were getting did not break the game but you did occasionally experience a tiny dose of dopamine that kept you hooked.

When Diablo 2 Resurrected gets that right and has a similar loot system to that of Loot2.0 which was introduced in Diablo 3, then we're already worried about just how much time we're going to spend playing the game. Diablo 3's disaster is arguably the most beneficial chance that has ever happened to the series on a continual basis. If you mix this along with it's Immortal controversy, it appears like Blizzard has a pretty straightforward strategy for avoiding potholes should it want to remain within the ranks of its the most faithful players.

The Diablo 3 community has been open about the things they don't like, and has been throughout the entire life of Diablo 3, so we're hopeful that Blizzard will take it into consideration from those lucky enough to play large portions of the game before its release. We'd like to bet Blizzard isn't happy with the stream of leaked footage that is rumored to have come on the heels of one of these private tests.

A key element in Diablo 3 that is confirmed to be returning are the limited-time Seasons. These are post-game bits of content, which change the way legendary items work and also remix the gameplay of the game base and add replayability to buy D2R Ladder Items a game that's already incredibly replayable. Seasons were supported in significant amounts of time in Diablo 3, so we're hoping they'll also be prominent in Diablo 2 Resurrected.
