Broooooo. You’re the sort of flagillant sycophant to blizzard that makes this thread entertaining. I haven’t even thought hard about putting my money into this game. I get to live vicariously through the poor choices of others here.
Hey we’re going to do a photo shoot.dev team
Well, I am assuming they took the code from D3 and used it in D4. In D3, they did it to simplify accessing your stash from any of the towns and for crafting. In D3, you aren't accessing a different "stash" you are simply accessing something you are always carrying around. With a max of 4 players, the overhead isn't all that big of a deal. Cheap, fast, and it works...in that game. I bet this code first saw light in D2.
Maybe if it was coded that way for bazaar type behavior? I can’t think of any other reason this would exist.
That makes zero sense. D3 was a lobby game. Even if you had to *gasp* load all three other players stashes it wouldn't matter. This game you can encounter 30+ people jerking off when going back into town, etc. It's a dumb mistake for sure, but I don't see any relevance to D3.
The relevance is they likely copy pasted code from Diablo 3 without being smart enough to know what was going to happen when it went from loading 1-3 people to hundreds. This may sound like I’m joking but I’m not. Bad coders take shortcuts like this all the time without thinking shit through.
I'm sure there's a ton of truth to copy and pasting code, but the wording should probably be rephrased then as this was not a problem in D3.

Except it is not loading their inventory when you inspect or try to trade. It’s loading any time a person appears on screen. So you have thousands of people loading thousands of other people just by seeing each other. Millions of unnecessary queries loading shit up all the time. A persons inventory is likely a small amount of data yes, but queries can be very expensive, depending on indexes and query efficiency.
