Hot on the heels of a backlash against Diablo 4 portal reskins that cost the same as Palworld comes a new microtransaction horror: a horse bundle that costs more than Diablo 4 itself.

They’re winding the game down and trying to milk the whales as much as possible before they stop supporting it

Wait. D4 is already winding down? Didn’t it launch last year?

Well, it’s hard to say. Player count still exists, but appears to be trending down. This is likely due to the season model they’re going for. Blizzard isn’t very forthcoming with numbers, so everyone’s looking towards this 3rd party for numbers https://activeplayer.io/diablo-4/

It’ll get an influx of players next month with the GamePass release. How long that lasts is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There’s like at least one xpac coming down that will somewhat revitalize the game, support won’t end tomorrow.
This is just blizz squeezing for more money, like every other game with an MTX shop.
