Honestly, if the idea of no trials don’t bother you, there are plenty more reminders why YOU shouldn’t preorder.

True, but I only bought for the beta and early access. It came with it. But im not going to buy any additional ones. I don't care about the cosmetics, only the one's you can unlock through gameplay I will go for.

It would have been nice if they went the Fortnite route, so that you can earn enough currency through the battle pass to buy the next one. If you don't spend it all in the store on cosmetics.

Blizzard of course develops World of Warcraft, and it has a mechanism to buy game time with in-game currency (or at least used to). So it's interesting they have no way to in D4. Though I guess they really fucked it up in D3 with trying an auction house there early on.
