    As others have said, this is basically a glorified big patch sold as a full retail game, it fixes many issues and the game is actually fun and enjoyable now but this in a nutshell should have been free. Shame on you Blizzard for ripping off your loyal customers

Loot 2.0 is understandable in the context of the horrific mess that Diablo 3 was although it leaves the game lacking when compared to the ARPG games. The king dethroned itself and with ROS Blizzard has tried to correct their wrongs but arguably the largest detractor from people having fun with it has been left intact. Always online DRM is a self defeating concept that keeps otherwise paying customers far away. I really wanted to like this expansion as Blizzard really did try hard, but after playing it for 20+ hours I am left with regret that I funded this always on shenanigan. Expand

    Overall, okay. Better than D3V, but that isn't saying much. It's still not an ARPG. Still not anywhere close to as good as D2:LoD. Still has untapped potential that will never be realized, and still....everyone praising the game will abandon ship in a few weeks.

Already when playing through this expansion, even though the setting and graphics are kind of different, you find yourself not attacking the monsters and just walking past them because it's tiresome and just not that fun anymore. For this price tag I expect much more content, honestly unless you feel like you have to buy this, wait for the price to drop or give this one a miss! Last time I paid good money for a short expansion like this was for Half Life: Blue Shift, which was good but too short as well and the reviews made a point of that! It baffles me that RoS gets such good reviews. Expand

    It took me 2 hours to finish the new content and now I am left with replaying the same content over and over again. I expected much more from the expansion based on failings of the last launch, but I am left with more disappointment yet again. Sorry, this is my honest opinion - I miss old-school Blizzard.

    This "expansion" is at its core an utterly needed patch for a broken and boring game. It fixes a good amount of the problems vanilla D3 had. But the actual content is very limited.

    And for a few weeks it was kind of fun. But in the long run Blizzard will manage to eliminate all aspects of fun with their mindset regarding "balance". "Overpowered" items, builds or farm methods get nerfed

"Overpowered" items, builds or farm methods get nerfed into ground asap, while obvious bugs in classes or items that actually weaken the players remain unfixed for weeks/ months. Awkward understanding of balance in my opinion ...

    Blizz: just get your head out of your a** and try to balance the game around the idea of "fun for as many as possible", not "all are equally f***" After all it's a single player/ coop game and in no way competitive. Who cares if some bugs make this game actually fun to play? Concentrate on bugs, which eliminate that fun ....

    Ok so here we go again... In 2012 my cousin bought the game despite i told him not to do so (he was 14 y old at the time) and we were so frustrated by the errors and the game mechanics that I created an account here and made a "review" (it was an inmature ranting that we posted in a childish yet funny brainstorm, which was the most fun he could get from that night).

In 2012 my cousin bought the game despite i told him not to do so (he was 14 y old at the time) and we were so frustrated by the errors and the game mechanics that I created an account here and made a "review" (it was an inmature ranting that we posted in a childish yet funny brainstorm, which was the most fun he could get from that night). So, in an attempt to squeeze the fun from the original title, my now almost 16 years old cousin bought this "expansion" and invited me to test it just like last time. The result was obviously better than the original title, but not by far: the new class was interesting in concept, and at first it looked pretty awesome, but we couldnt get a hold of that feeling completely, as the skill system is awful, and we cannot customize him. Note that you could release the assasin from d2 itself, but you wouldnt get an awesome "charachter" feeling when you have no choice over the development of said "charachter". It's not an ARPG its an AG. The lvl cap raise was something standard in Blizzard, and the loot offered in the previous patch, "the loot 2.0" wasnt even a feature of this "expansion", except for the new items it brings, which is standard in "expansions". So it only remains the new arc, which is not that bad at least not as far as we got (we got bored after an hour or so), but in my opinion it could be something out of a DLC rather than an "expansion". So, you can get this for WHAT? 40 bucks?. Insane. You can get 10 lvls more, some more loot to grind, an average plotted but very long side quest, some runes and skills, and a new class, which seems pretty awesome, but suffers from the horrible game mechanichs making it completely boring after an hour of gameplay. That, my friends is a 10 bucks DLC for me, not an "expansion". Blizzard should have looked at their first works. Those were some expansions, and at that time, expansions didnt have to include much more content beacuse of the games being shorter, yet they included far enough. So, the night ended on frustration again, and with my cousin being almost 16 years old, I couldnt get him to write a childish rant like last time, so this time we had not fun, and I am writing this rant alone and somewhat sad. Im also thinking about playing some Diablo 2 just for the nostalgia feeling, but I know if I do, I'll stay playing, because it is a fantastic game. Expand

    Game-play is well done, combat is excellent but the game still lacks any real depth.

    It's fun for week or two but I don't see myself playing this for years like Diablo-2.

The problems lie later on as your character progresses and they fail to excite players and keeping people entertained which is the purpose of gaming and aRPG's/loot grind games like this game.

    You have to try very very hard to enjoy this game after 50-100+ hours. Now to people who look at a games worth based on the amount of hours they've logged - You'd be greatly impressed and probably give 9.5/10 if I based it on hours vs $$$. However this is a Diablo game and you're supposed to be excited since this is a video game and they fail to deliver quality end game content...
    ~~~The problems lie with Items
    There are hardly any upgrades after a certain point, and farming gets really boring, really quickly. Your character progresses very slowly, you may spend 2-3 DAYS spending 5-15+ hours a day FARMING just to get 1 upgrade because 95% of legendaries are rubbish and will immediately go to salvage, even many yellows are better than legs because the chance of finding a good yellow is far more common than a DECENT legendary.

    Do NOT buy this game if you plan to spend many hours grinding, your effort will be worthless and you will never truly complete a character, some people may look at that as a bad thing but it really isn't when you can spend 40+ hours and not progressing your character at all.

    Reaper of Souls is ages ahead of the disaster that was the original Diablo III launch. It suffers from few of the accessibility issues, increases the diversity of the world and does a reasonable job improving the atrocious loot and itemization system.

    That said, it's an average game that still falls far short of the historical preeminence of it's predecessors. With Reaper of Souls, Blizzard was able to ostensibly restore the core of the game, while at the same time somehow managing to leave out the soul.

    The new rifts are interesting, but the way the loot system has been overhauled kind of turns it into a solo grind while everyone waits around for a legendary or set item to drop...which they do with a nearly timed consistency. This unfortunately means, if you get a bad drop, you basically play for no reason just to burn time until your next opportunity.

    While the removal of the Auction House is a positive in terms of the way it was originally designed, Blizzard seems to have forgotten that the point of multiplayer games is to interact with other players. Loot is almost exclusively tuned to your current character and trading all but the most generic items is almost completely removed.

    In the end, while it is still a better offering, it's not enough to push the game even near the top of the ARPG pack.

    Average ARPG at best. This is DLC disguised an expansion. It's a cash grab. That's pretty much all it is. Luckily I can review this having played at a friends and therefore saved £32.99.

    Oh and people giving it extra points due to a "smooth launch" are ridiculous. Smooth launches should be standard practice.

    Oh how standards and expectations have slipped.

    But still I feel like I have to at least voice my opinion on this. Okay let's go ahead:

    Good about RoS is, that they finally introduced a mode were you don't have to experience the sad excuse of a storyline. Even if you don't know the Diablo lore you probably think the story is annoying, obvious and feels like reading a really bad comic book. As a Diablo fan you will recognize many inconsistencies with previous games/books and the story is an insult and disgrace.

    The new adventure mode allows you do go whereever you want - great, but can someone please tell who the f*ck seriously thought that not being able to switch acts is good? I mean how BAD, just how goddamn bad of a designer do you have to be.

    Now on to the problems that STILL persists:

    The loot is one-dimensional, some people actually think that "loot 2.0" fixed it, but they will come back complaining when they hit the next upgrade wall. Again, the real problem is that loot is one-dimensional. More is always better, there are no interesting choices what piece of gear to use. This doesn't change just because the legendary items now have some gimmicky proc effects.

    As the itemization, the skill system also has 0 depth. Zero. You chose 6 skills and 6 runes and now 4 passive skills. Wow. Such choice. There is NO way to customize your build besides gear - which doesn't have the necessery depth to make up for this horrible excuse of a skill system. The reason point based skillsystems ARE more interesting is because having the same skills does not equal having the same playstyle. Think of a necromancer (there still isn't a summoning class in D3 - lol) that has an attack spell/support and his minions. Although people chose the exact same skills, in a point based system they can have a different focus - thus CUSTOMIZING a given build to their playstyle.

    Skill damage is dependend on you weapon damage and main attribute. This is one of the most r*etarded things ever designed, whoever did this - please leave the industry for good. I mean seriously, I don't know how but they managed to make the attributes even more shallow and boring than Diablo 2 - where at least you had to decide max block yes/no etc.

    Blizzard, why have you forsaken us? I refuse to believe that catering to a wider, more casual audience means you have to leave the fans of the prequels in the rain. You could have made a real Diablo 3 and the casual people would have still played through it one or two times and would have had a blast and the Diablo2 vets would have had a true successor for the next 10 years.

    All in all 4/10 - below average.

    Because the elements in here is just too little to notify.

    Today, people that defend this game are because of hype.
    Wait for another month and so, youll see the real face of this game.
    Let the hype loose.
    Don't preorder games. Usually sequal has elements from its previous titles.
    Well for Diablo 3 the sequal is for sure is not what you have anticipated.

    Wait for the expansion.
    And just pray that the next expansion they know what to do to redeem Diablo 3.

    For me, i wont be putting high hopes on that. because till this day. we know that they have failed for 2 times already( the expansion and the vanilla).
    Be hopeful, but dont let that hype blinds your decision to buy this game.

    It's difficult to improve something which is garbage in its essence (DIablo 3), so how to review this? Surely the new character is ok and the adventure mode quite funny, but the game's root (gameplay, story) is still the same, so please refer to Diablo 3's review to understand why this (and the original game) shouldn't be bought.

The only notable additions this expansion brings are only the Crusader (which is kind of uninspired) and the new act, the rest of the content is very lackluster.

    The new Adventure Mode fails to provide a new alternative to the gameplay, because it is the ONLY game mode worth playing. Once you unlock Adventure Mode there's no point in playing Story Mode anymore, as all the new game mechanics are only available in Adventure Mode. It would be better if they had introduced new mechanics to both modes so players have more choices when it comes to playing the game.

    Mystic/Enchanting is a feature that was supposed to be in the original D3, but was apparently "scrapped" and then conveniently packaged into the expansion as a "new" feature. This makes one question the business ethics of Activision-Blizzard, what more content has been cut in order to be sold together with the future expansions as "new" features?

    Gambling (Blood shards) is a mechanic already found in D2 but was then somehow missing in the original D3, only to appear in this expansion as another "new" feature. Aside from that, it is currently considered a waste of time and effort to "gamble", as the chances of getting legendaries from gambling are extremely low, even after the latest hotfix.

    Speaking of legendaries, the new legendaries (not the re-revamped vanilla legendaries. Yes, RE-revamped.) are only a handful, and most of them are still as boring as the old ones, with boring stats and mods, no small part due to the still-broken itemization. Getting the ones you really want will now be an even arduous task, as you can no longer freely trade with others thanks to the Bind-on-Account system.

    Bounties and Rifts are new gameplay mechanics found in Adventure Mode, nothing remarkable about them. Bounties only provide you with specific target to kill for an reward and rifts only serve as a minor distraction from the mindless and monotonous grinding.

    However, if you insist on buying this game, I would recommend waiting for the price to drop before getting it. This game is NOT worth $40, do not continue to line Acti-Blizz's pockets by paying so much for so little.

    Lots of good fixes from the original game. Crusader class i cool. However, Act V is short....really short. Took about 4 hours before its back to the grind to met the new level cap. Adventure mode is lacking, pretty much did all available bounties in 4 hours as well. When your done with that, its just back to the grind with the same Acts, killing the same mobs, getting that gear. ThisLots of good fixes from the original game. Crusader class i cool.

Now Blizzard's other games with expansions like SC2's Heart of the Swarm warranted its price tag. This Diablo expansion does not. For maybe $19.99 I can see that as fair otherwise what your getting for $39.99 is not worth it (or really, not enough). Expand

    Unfortunately Bliz has destroyed this series. The game will be fun for a very short time. There is nothing to keep you coming back. Spending endless hours over and over without ever getting a reward for your work is not really my idea of fun.

    Very frustrating to spend $40 to get this expansion and play only one chapter extra and 1 new hero... Diablo III game cost the same $40 and comes with 4 chapters and 4 characters. Pure money grab DLC expansion.

    Chat system is broken, no one talks only money spammers are there. very few people are talking.. no trading allowed anymore since AH is closed. endless grinding game .....

    don't expect too much from the expansion,,,

    Story is good for an expansion (3 points for it)... rest are all from the main title no new stuff.

    $20 at most is more than enough for this DLC expansion no more.

    Diablo III and its Reaper of Souls expansion pack require continuous connection to Battle.net server to play. And this server has been frequently (about a few hours every day?) under maintenance since I bought the games 2 days ago. These games are expensive disappointment.

    At last! Diablo III became the game I was looking forward to. Reaper of Souls does more than just improve the original – it reinvents it and helps it reclaim the hack’n’slash throne. [05/2014, p.50]

    Heaps of new content provides hours of fun, even though the campaign could use a little extension. But if you’re a fan, this is a must. [Issue#241]

    Blizzard did the obvious: literally transformed Diablo 3 to what it should have been from the start. It took them some time, but finally Blizzard got the message and moved finally to the right direction. While we expect the next expansion, fans of action / rpg can now sleep peacefully ... the king is here!
