[Diablo 4] Who actually likes Battle Passes in games? (lemmy.sysctl.io)

Title.

I've never purchased a battle pass. They've always been a detractor to me. In any game I've played. I just can't bring myself to spend $10 here, $15 here , oo shiny skin $25 here, on top of paying $70 for the base game.

Isn't it just another progress tracker like the seasonal journey? You get small rewards as you gain experience or complete achievements or whatever.

The premium battle pass is claimed to only be cosmetic items, we'll see how long that lasts. I have zero interest in purchasing cosmetics so I'll only be doing the free battle pass stuff, I guess.

I just want to go back to the days of Diablo 2. I guess I should stick with D2: Resurrected and WoW: Classic. No extra fluff. I always refer to Classic as "WoW distilled. No extra stuff. No confusing battle pass stuff. Just play the game and enjoy.

Most days I fee like the "get off my lawn" old man when it comes to this stuff.
