In the event that Diablo 4 Gold streamer Quin69 told viewers that the path towards $20.000 had just begun on one of his shows last week, few could have predicted that he'd get to the top of the hill. After all, the odds that he'd spent more than NZ$10.000 in Diablo 4 without getting a single 5/5-Star Legendary Gem seemed unlikely enough. Sadly, however the luck of the streamer hasn't changed a bit since when he first started.
Eight days and countless Rifts later, Quin69 has now reached another unimaginable milestone, with his most recent stream pushing his total spend up to a whopping NZ$20.000. Unfortunately for Quin69. owing to the way Diablo Diablo 4's controversial "pity" system works the player isn't even close to having one of the 5/5-Star Legendary Gems than when he first began to invest.
In just a few weeks that Quin69 has been spending a shocking NZ$20.915.82 without getting the one 5/5-Star Legendary Gem. As the best design would require six of these gems, Quin69 still has quite a ways to go in order to reach perfection. Actually, it's becoming apparent that YouTube channel Bellular News' assertions that it could cost up to $110.000 to fully equip for Diablo 4 may actually have been an overestimation on their part.
Of course, saying that Quin69 has gained nothing through the process would be slightly inaccurate. For one thing, Quin69 has gained thousands of followers on his platforms since becoming fame which could have contributed to his expenditure. The streamer also has a very OP configuration on Diablo 4. as evidenced by his daily excursions through the online game's multiplayer.
NZ$20.000 may not be enough to ensure a 5/5-Star Legendary Gem, but it could be enough to purchase some decent gear. This is why Quin69 can often achieve double-digit kill streaks in the PvP mode of Diablo 4. However because of the amount it has cost him to play the game's pay to win feature that is perhaps to expect. His viewers are always eager to remind him with remarks like "well earned" and "nice pay" appearing in chats whenever Quin69 boasts about his accomplishments.
Some have gone as even as to label Quin69 as part of the problem, suggesting the recklessness of his spending might influence viewers to bet on games with money they aren't able to afford to lose, as well as providing justifications to those in charge of the game's massive monetization. There have been other complaints about the streamer's mental health, due to not just the thousands of dollars that he has recently thrown away in Diablo Diablo 4 but also to the rage that is often displayed when things don't go his way within the game.
Diablo fans have had lots of reasons to talk about the game recently, resulting in some fan art to resurface. One fan recently shared a model that they built of Prime Evil Diablo as he made an appearance on screen in Diablo 3. The statue was revealed by CubbyNINJA on both Diablo 3 and 3D Printing Reddit. It took the team nearly two weeks to print, assemble, and paint the model, that was created by ZeroSwat. But the outcomes of their work were nothing short of amazing.
CubbyNINJA's statue is incredibly detailed and accurate to depictions of Diablo both in game and artwork. The menacing model stands at around 18 inches. It could be taken for an official model when first seen. In reality, the design of the statue is similar to Sideshow Collectible's Limited Edition Prime Evil Diablo statue. According to CubbyNINJA the Diablo model was printed using 32 pieces of the modifiable Ender5Plus 3D printer. They used SpeedPainter SpeedPaints from ArmyPainter, including special UV-sensitive paints to make the glowing hellfire effects on the face of the Prim Evil as well as his chest. The 3D-printable model is available at cgtrader's website for $35 it is less than the Sideshow Collection's $350 official alternative, which is shown below.
Diablo 3 fans who were able to see CubbyNINJA's work were stunned by the quality of their work. Diablo's Prime Evil presence in Diablo 3 was a dramatic and unanticipated change from his usual look. The reaction to this change was quite polarizing and some fans were in love with his new style and some disagreeing, everyone thought CubbyNINJA did it right.
Sanctuary has been on the radar of all players as two different Diablo titles making news due to various reasons. The recently released mobile game Buy Diablo IV Gold has received much criticismdue to its predatory business model that is built on an otherwise good Diablo game. The game, however, Diablo 4 finally revealed some new information, including five classes and a release date of 2023 on The Xbox or Bethesda Games Showcase.
