Diablo 4 community divided on whether Spiritborn justifies Vessel of Hatred\u2019s price Diablo 4Diablo 4\u2019s community is skeptical about the upcoming Vessel of Hatred DLC\u2019s price tag, with players wondering if the new Spiritborn class justifies the cost. This type of controversy isn\u2019t new for Diablo 4. Since launch, players have voiced their discontent over the game\u2019s pricing and microtransactions. At $70, the base game already seemed costly, but the in-game shop\u2019s prices ignited further outrage. The most memed uproar was over a $65 mount bundle, priced almost as high as the full game. Releasing in October, the Vessel of Hatred DLC introduces the new Spiritborn class and promises more content for $39.99. However, players are skeptical if the hefty price is justified by just a single new class, voicing their discontent in the comments of a Spiritborn promo teaser on X. While some acknowledge Spiritborn as a solid addition, many are unconvinced it\u2019s worth the cost. Players have noted that Vessel of Hatred costs the same as Elden Ring\u2019s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which offers an average of 24 hours of gameplay and boasts a 95 score on Metacritic. One fan commented, \u201cWhat else does Vessel of Hatred offer that makes it worth the price tag?\u201d Much of the expansion\u2019s pre-release reveals have centered on the Spiritborn class, which Diablo General Manager Rod Fergusson has called \u201cbroken in the most fun way.\u201d That focus on Spiritborn has overshadowed other content coming in the DLC, though. Vessel of Hatred also promises new towns, dungeons, and a unique multi-faceted dungeon that requires teamwork. According to Vessel of Hatred\u2019s Steam description, players can also look forward to new enemies, Mercenaries, and Pets to aid in their journey. Updates will also include new skills, Paragon Boards, and Legendary Glyphs for all classes, as well as new activities and rewards. Additionally, Diablo 4 expert Raxxanterax played Vessel of Hatred early, and he claimed that there\u2019s a lot more in store that Blizzard hasn\u2019t shown off yet. Spiritborn may be just the beginning of what\u2019s on offer in this expansion. When Vessel of Hatred launches, Diablo 4 players will have plenty of new content to explore \u2013 if Blizzard does enough to prove that the price tag is worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
