It's been a while since I last seen anyone posting graphs showing user base growth. Are we past the initial rush and bleeding numbers now?
I've always been bad at minmaxing, playing games mainly for stories and escapism. With Diablo though the whole fun is in progression, gearing up, etc.
After completing pre-season campagin on a Sorc and a Necro, I decided to go with a Barbarian for Season 1.
All was fine and dandy until around now. I am at level 51. Content in Tier 1 and Tier 2 is pretty much a cakewalk. Content in Tier 3 is frustratingly hard. I have no idea how to gear up, as most stuff that drops for me in T2 is pretty low compared to what I painstakingly grinded through many many death-per-dungeon runs trying Tier 3.
I leveled using Hammer of the Ancients, but got bored of it and switched to Whirlwind (which I have fond memories of). Problem is, naturally in Fury management. Unless the area is absolutely packed with mobs, I don't seem to be able to sustain the whirlwind for long enough. On T2 it's OK. I do some fury generation then get back to it. On T3 by the time I get the bar filled again I'm usually dead.
Any idea what should I be doing? Is there some harder T2 stuff that rewards better gear? Or maybe easier T3 stuff?
At the moment if not careful I can die to even roaming elites in T3, while in T2 I can sleepwalk through pretty much everything I've seen...

Activision Blizzard is not a good company. They have an abysmal track record for how they treat their employees, history of misogyny and abuse. Since the departure of Blizzard's founding members, the quality of many of their games took a noise dive.
They got one thing very right though, and that's account-level, platform independent save system in Diablo 4.
Being able to seamlessly switch between my PC, PS5 and Steam Deck is probably the coolest thing I experienced in gaming in a very long time. While it would be awesome not to have to buy the titles individually on each platform, it's a huge step in the right direction.
I can only wish more games supported cross-platform saves, because now that I'm used to it, I can really feel the absence of this feature in other titles.
(It would also help a lot with games preservation, if you could easily use old save files on newer platforms and remasters - as long as it's not all server-bound)
Every exercise app I ever used is all like: You have achieved your goal. Now set new goal and push yourself harder.
Why can't it ever be: You've achieved your goal. Well done. If you ever want to go further, you can change the settings, but for now - enjoy it!
