Yes I agree but not everyone wants to play 1 hero either
Most people at high investment have roughly what maybe 5-10 heroes. Most people are actually in the middle they aren't me with all possible variance and they aren't the person that has only 1 or 2 heroes
Most people when the Ashes quest didn't exist had their favourite hero and a few others. For example if the team needed an RG they just swap because it was frictionless at least in comparison. Now that the Quest is a thing It has forced people in the mindset of..
I need to play this 1 ID otherwise I'm wasting my time
I was probably the first to make all 24 Heroes and in most games I would get something for that massive time and wealth sync even if it was cosmetic
I spoke to a Dev 5-10 years ago the idea of getting a unique collectible for getting all the sniper heroes for example. That was something that they agreed with just hard to implement
I'm not asking for making all classes being the most optimal way to play far from it. I'm asking for it to not get worse in comparison then it already is
People should not be forced to play a certain style of game play if they don't like it
I get what you're saying, but I think the current system makes sense in terms of long-term investment. Specializing in one hero should be rewarding, and there has to be some incentive for players to commit to a specific character. Otherwise, there’s no real difference between playing one hero or jumping between all of them.
I agree that players should have the freedom to switch heroes when needed, but at the same time, the game shouldn't push everyone into constantly rotating between multiple heroes either. If too many rewards were given for having a lot of heroes, it could make single-hero progression feel pointless.
Maybe a middle ground could be found where playing multiple heroes is viable, but committing to one still has strong benefits. That way, players can choose the playstyle that suits them best.
