"you control the buttons you press" is a reasonable response to people getting mad at dialogue choices or character customisation options they don't have to use, but expecting players to avoid optimising the fun out of a game is more of a design issue than a player issue.
Soonish for balance. First dlc will be small but substantial enough to make many happy. 4 new classes ( 300+ new abilities ) tons of unlocks and more things to do.
Big dlc will be later and might focus on a 4th act.
@edmundmcmillen Dreadnoughtus doesn't do enough for where they are in the game. The past route just kinda feels like it peaks at lord bunga.
Coven has amazing presentation but requires multiple things to go right for it to feel like the fight lives up to it and is generally also too easy.
