Don’t get me wrong, I’m still going to get it. I’m not one of those “MTX is destroying gaming” types. I also feel like buying a $70 game only to be confronted with MTX right out of the gate doesn’t feel great, but as long as the game is fun, I’ll be OK. I also don’t mind paying for drip-fed content as long as the base game is complete.

If you say the base gear looks good, that goes a long way towards encouraging me to purchase it on payday. I feel like most folks who’ve played it have said it was pretty fun.

Is there repeatable content for the endgame like D3, or did they go another direction with it?

I’m a lifelong Diablo fan, so I’ll probably pick this up next week. One thing that bugs me is that folks keeps saying “it’s just cosmetics”. To me, this ignores the fact that, since Diablo 3, your character’s look is part of the fun. That cool armor you just found looks cool too. Now I worry that the gear is going to look boring so that you’re subtly nudged in the direction of buying cosmetics.

Basically, I still want to be able to play dress-up.
