Am I missing something? Why the fuck would I start my character over?

Level 61 with 82 hours played. Very casual with a full time job.

I should be able to beat tier 4 capstone pretty soon.

Why would I want to restart for season 1? Why can’t I use my current character for season 1?

That’s incredibly stupid as fuck to restart all the progress I made since launch and go back to level 1

Edit: I would be okay with seasons if they were longer but 3 months is nothing I’ll basically be able to get to tier 3 and level 60 again. I feel like I’m 3 they were longer and you could get up to torment 10 and it got progressively crazier as you leveled.

But tier 3 is a joke in this game. It’s not even hard at all. I rarely die and if I do it’s because I wasn’t watching my health not because I couldn’t beat it.
