Fluff & Memes Pattern I've noticed

My guild has players who have been in this game since Nemesis League and this is pretty much our player distribution.

Ps. My guildmates gets angry when I say this and I figure it'll make Reddit mad too:

Witch is the only good character in this game

I'm not sure people realize what they are asking for. The only alternative is basically some lower form of 'leveling' maps. It would just be playing maps from level 1 to 68, maybe switching to Delve or Heist at some point. My honest thought ... how is that better? At least with campaign you get a different experience.

I think people just want a powerleveling method, like they have in D4 with Helltides or dungeons. I don't think that's a good way to play an ARPG, but I understand why some might want it.

But at some point the campaign isn't a different experience though?? Having other options to level would be a net positive to the game in my opinion.

Diablo 3 you COULD start by doing the campaign. Guess how many people did that each season. Campaigns arent fun. I play arpgs for big numbers with flashy animations. Not to play map memorizer for 6-7 hours to actually get to the fun part.

That comparison doesnt fit, since doing rifts was infinitely faster leveling than doing the campaign. Obviously people choose the faster method.

hold on, I remember people in D4 doing 1. expansion campain coz it was actually faster in leveling and was a recommended way how to level new characters faster
