It often seems that no one understands that even online, some of us aren’t naturally good at dealing with others. It can also be incredibly draining for those of us who can’t or don’t always want to be ‘on’, to have to engage with other people socially. There’s nothing wrong with this kind of interconnected group play - it can be a lot of fun. Blizzard makes several games like this, ranging from Overwatch which has essentially no solo play to Hearthstone which is a game where you’re always playing against someone else, and World of Warcraft can be played solo but has a great deal of group content for just a few examples. Gearing boils down to getting set items and stacking literally many thousands percent dmg multipliers, which also makes the game really unbalances, as there are magnitudes of difference in the dmg classes can dish out.Games are getting more and more connected all the time - they’re more about multiple players having experiences together, about teamwork and group play. The very core of the game, which is the combat engine, is absolutely amazing, but everything build around i a damn joke. It may seem like i don’t enjoy the game, but i put many hundred of hours into D3 the past years, and reached high leaderboard spots in the early seasons, both solo, party, sc and hc, because the combat is just so damn satisfying. The progression and itemization is atrocious, and you will easily have every single BiS item within a day or two, after which you are just grinding paragon and looking for ancient pieces of the excact same gear, but with slightly better stats. It is really good as a mindless hack and slash game, and has some of the most satisfying combat of any game, but that is about it.
