Fans are criticizing Diablo 2: Resurrected again on the forums after the release of the Diablo 2: Resurrected update 2.5 and the start of the second season of Blizzard’s RPG ladder. Following the release of Friends and Family CBT, Diablo 4 beta leaks seem to confirm the development team’s initial assumptions that the upcoming game will have limited lower-tier item trading, with no trading of unique items, outfits, or legendary team. and gold.
Shortly after the release of the second season of Diablo 2: Resurrected ladder on October 6, players started showing up with some weird endgame gear. This led to frustrated players taking to the Blizzard forums and Diablo Reddit to express their discontent. In a post with the explosive headline “F*** JSP,” BerettaValentine took aim at Diablo 2: Resurrected’s main trading site, D2JSP.
The site allows users to trade their Diablo 2: Resurrected items with each other using their own resource called “forum gold” as an intermediary currency. Forum gold can also be purchased directly for real money by making a “donation” on the site, although D2JSP has a strict policy that users may not sell their forum gold to others for real money.
BerettaValentine’s post states that having a JSP “destroys the whole spirit of the game, especially the scale.” They explain how a player in his group was promptly “decorated with neatly coiled magical research items purchased with forum gold” and the player’s explanation is that they “earned” it by grinding forum gold for months. BerettaValentine explains that “the point of the rating reset is for everyone to start from scratch” and that players being able to trade better gear for foreign currency ruins the idea of a new season.
They conclude by addressing the users of the trade forum, stating that “you are the reason why we will not have [unrestricted] trading in Diablo 4. The reported trading restrictions have already been the source of much controversy, with some players preferring the “SSF” style of play. SSF, which stands for “Self-Found”, refers to characters who only have access to gear they find in single player. Some players say they find the thrill of a rare drop much more appealing when trading is removed; however, others who may have less time to find gear say they’d rather be able to trade good items they don’t need for ones they do.
Regarding the “here and now” in Diablo 2: Resurrected, many users ask for the introduction of SSF scaling as a possible solution. Several replies in a Reddit thread indicate they’d be inclined to play ladder if SSF were an option, while a Blizzard forum post notes: “Voices for SSF online ladder are getting louder, and it would be something that the average player can participate in.”
While many players in the Diablo 2: Resurrected community recently pointed out that MrLlamaSC was the first player to reach level 99 in the second season of the ladder, some say they would be much more interested in seeing someone reach level 99. .configure SSF instead of rushing. through out-of-the-box dungeons with a full party and gear trade.
The trade debate is likely to go on forever, and Diablo 4’s still-close release date will only fan the flames further, but Blizzard will land on its systems and rules.
