    Diablo 4 got 40% off within a few months I find AAA games are increasingly starting with a high price point to capitalize on the hype and advertising campaign, and once that peters out they quickly reduce the price.

      Wasn’t Diablo 4 kinda trash as well? Just looking on steam and it’s rated mixed, with people complaining about the monetisation of the game.

      It’s a shame what Blizzard has become, because they used to make amazing games.

        It is trash, and Last Epoch launched at half the price being twice as good if not more this year, and with an offline mode. Diablo 4 was my biggest disappointment last year. Blizzard is a husk of its former self, amazing how mask off greedy they have become.

        Gotta distinguish popularity from ratings.
        Diablo 4 is maybe a mediocre game, but it sold truckloads.
