Diablo 4 Needs to Steer Clear From a Major Companion Folly That Neverwinter Is a Victim Of

Most RPGs today have some sort of companion or pet system. It’s especially true for ARPGs like Diablo 4, Neverwinter, and other games of the genre. But regardless of how cool these systems can be, the execution is what matters most. And that’s where we hope Blizzard doesn’t learn from Neverwinter’s mistakes.

In Neverwinter, all the good companions are locked behind paywalls, and it encourages a pay-to-win mentality. Since Diablo 4 finally got companions in the Vessel of Hatred expansion, we can assume that more are coming. We just hope Blizzard doesn’t make them pay to win too because there are a lot of other things to worry about right now.

The companions in Neverwinter are AI-controlled allies that assist players in battle.
