This season loot drops and progression are a blessing coming from POE2.

Big Thanks to Diablo 4 for Respecting My Limited Time!

As someone juggling work, parenting, and the eternal struggle of finding time to game, I just want to give a massive shoutout to Diablo 4’s new season.

Over the past few days, I managed to carve out some quality gaming time with the missus, and we powered through to Tier 2. The loot drops have been chef’s kiss—so good that I’ve been constantly tweaking my build, experimenting, and feeling like an absolute powerhouse blasting through content. It’s addictive as… well, hell. (Pun absolutely intended.)

I even picked up the new DLC, and honestly? The story had me hooked. I’m genuinely excited to see if we get all the primes come as Mephisto indicated (i haven't yet completed the last part!).

Now, let me contrast this with my experience in POE2. Don’t get me wrong—I loved a lot about it, especially the boss fights, which were epic. But man, the constant wall-hitting and the endless gear-trading grind just killed the vibe for me. I spent more time fiddling with resistances and trading for gear than actually playing the game. It felt like a job, and I already have one of those.

D4 It’s challenging but fair, rewarding but not overwhelming, and most importantly, it respects my time. So, thank you for this season, devs, for making a game that lets me feel like a badass demon slayer, even if I only have few hours spare.

Anyone felt the same?
