    I really love your high-level overviews / 101s. They're completely spoiler-free in terms of other aspects of the game, and are exactly what I need to start the expansion informed, but still get to experience everything on my own. Not showing any gameplay in these videos really ties into that, since I don't want to see too much of Nahantu beforehand, for instance. So, thanks for that!

    @X1manwolfpackX День тому +1

    So a while back, I believe during one of the campfires or initial reveal of VoH, they discussed the mercenaries and how you could essentially "sacrifice" them like the necromancer book of the dead to gain buffs for yourself rather than having a mercenary. Was that feature scrapped? I've not seen any of the content creators or guides mentioning it being a thing anymore. I'm one of the people that has very little interest in the mercenaries as I'm not a fan of "pets" in ARPGs. It would be a real bummer if they went back on their original plan and mercenaries are now basically mandatory or you are willfully gimping yourself.

    Mercs are the ones I had the most concern about for this expansion since the wife and I play together until we reach max level. So in my case, my Merc won't even get to be used until we hit 60. So, this is going to be interesting how to use the reinforcement if you're not even using the leveling until then. Might have to rethink our leveling strategy (she will not be happy if we have to play solo) lol

      @DoritosBurger It's objectively incomplete. I like the game, too, but I'm not going to lie about facts. The vast majority of people would agree that the base game is incomplete since it doesn't have an endgame and doesn't have many quality of life features that are no brainer. Even your favorite Diablo 4 content creators will agree. Raxx, DM, and more. People aren't just saying, "we have to pay $40 more dollars to complete the game" for nothing. It's objectively true, and no, they're not talking about the new campaign or class. They're referring to rune words that aren't real rune words, mercenaries, and the Dark Citadel. Which should all be base game features. Also, acting like a forced multi-player activity is good. in a historically single-player game where most people play solo is also crazy. Especially when you understand that according to Blizzard, 85-95% of people play solo.
