This happened to Jtisallbusiness, who spent $100,000 to max his Barbarian as much as possible Diablo IV Gold , but then he ended up winning so many games, the game just…stopped matching him altogether due to his insane MMR, and he says he’ll sit around for 48 to 72 hours waiting for a match. He posted the below video asking whether he should try and get a refund for his $100K account since this portion of the game no longer functioned for him at all, effectively. It has 1.5K likes and 15,000 dislikes, as he’s not finding much of a sympathetic audience:
It’s possible a fix for this is on the way, as Blizzard has commented on the fact that some players cannot find matches in Battleground PvP, and after a month, Jitsallbusiness said Blizzard finally did get back to him about it. But what isn’t clear is what happens if they start putting him in matches again with such a strong character, and if it’s even possible he can lose with how much he’s spent. As commenters said when this situation was unfolding, this may just be what happens when you “win” a pay-to-win game.
Diablo 3’s 2012 launch was a disaster thanks to its always-online requirements, broken servers, and a real-money auction house that nobody liked or wanted. Today, a decade later, we know that eventually Blizzard got things back on track with Diablo 3 and ended up creating a damn fine ARPG. But why did it take nearly two years for Blizzard to remove that annoying real-money auction house? Well, apparently you can blame the boxes the game was shipped in and their printed promises of a working auction house.
As spotted by PC Gamer, some former Blizzard and Blizzard North employees held a panel during last weekend’s Portland Retro Diablo 4 Gold buy Gaming Expo. During that panel, the group of former Blizz devs talked about the history of Diablo and their own connections to the games, and shared stories about making the popular franchise. During the panel, former lead designer on Diablo 3, Jay Wilson, talked about the controversial auction house, explaining its origins and more.
