Welp, They Finally Broke Our Bud Datto Media

He's so right. There's a suit at Bungo that got paid for this decision. More concerned with the next few months of $$ than the next few years of players.

It’s called that because it will confuse and trick new players into wasting 15 bucks on this scam of a pack.

Hell, I played a fair amount of D2 at launch and was thinking of getting back into it recently, at this point I have no goddamned idea what I have to buy or what content is relevant for catching up (both in terms of plot and light level)

Can't imagine you guys see many completely brand new players if even someone who's trying to return is having this much trouble

They’ve shortsightedly sacrificed a wider new player appeal to instead soak anyone new for every little slice of content they can.
