Creator of Path of Exile Defends the Greed of Diablo 2: Resurrected Authors
Chris Wilson, the creator of Path of Exile, commented on the scandal surrounding Reign of the Warlock for Diablo 2: Resurrected. Players criticized Blizzard for tying improvements to paid DLC, but Wilson believes this is not greed, but caution.
In his opinion, Diablo 2 is a cultural phenomenon and a "shared memory," so changes require care. Blizzard split the game into two branches: the original as a museum exhibit and a new one through DLC. This is respect for the legacy.
However, Wilson called the release of the expansion without significant new content, such as a full act, a mistake.
