    I was expecting a game like D2, but got a worse game than D3/Immortal instead.

    A soulless game, It seems to lack even the most basic features. It's actually quite simple, why do you have to reinvent the wheel? Why not use the features you already have and know? You simply add new features to these features. So you then have a better game than D4. I don't know which apprentice    I was expecting a game like D2, but got a worse game than D3/Immortal instead.

    I don't know which apprentice Blizzard has a say in, but apparently the whole team is made up of amateurs.

    The Diablo team only had 1 task! Just use the basics you already have. Say Diablo1, Diablo2, D2R, i also call Diablo3 .

    Just use the fking Basics whats the Problem!
    OKAY!OKAY! you want to make a new game out of Diablo, blablala "Open World" "Meghan Fox"
    all well and good but WTF! add all the stuff we already have at the previous games!!!

    Of all the problems this game has the worst is bad management. Youtubers post vids of how to exploit and nothing happens to them. Everyone's exploiting, silence from Blizzard, they condone it. Too late for me to refund. Never buying a blizzard game again.

    In three words: boring, unfinished, shallow.
    You can finish it in 2 days, play 1-2 days more, and there's nothing to do.
    Leveling experience is a nightmare because of level scaling - total lack of balance. From the start you're using the same skills and there are no real build diversity.

    Inventory is tiny with ugly little icons, after 2 days of playing resources capped out, you have all the gems in the world...
    Highest tier of items unique are just weak and redundant.
    World bosses are so weak, that people on highest difficulty beats them in seconds (there's only 3 and one of them is reused from campaign).
    Story is dull an unmemorable with terrible bosses that have 3 attacks.
    There's no rng generated maps - static!!! arpg in 2023...
    Heavy multiplayer game without!!! social features...
    About level 70 you have top gear(which you can buy at vendors SIC!), so there's nothing to do.
    Fight would be ok, but there's lots of unavoidable chain cc.
    Endgame Tree of whispers is total disaster and nobody does this, helltides are fun for 3-4 times till you have gg gear, nightmare dungeons are terrible, boring, repetitive, lots of backtracking, with mobs spawning from nowhere.
    Every system is unfinished and most of them seems to be in game just to make it look that game is big.
    Many thing promised by devs is not in game(sets, runes, angelic/demonic affixes etc.) - get money ready for DLC.
    If game wasn't named Diablo after 1-2 weeks 80% of players would left and scores would be terrible.

    Video game business plan:

    Incentivise players to play hardcore mode with a contest. Have large amount of those characters die due to lags/disconnects/freezes. Victim-blame players and refuse to recover lost characters due to unstable game. Refuse refunds. Profit.

    I'm going to start with the seasonal content, in case anyone is reading reviews for that purpose.

    The Season of the Malignant is an astoundingly lazy addition to a badly underdeveloped game. The only free cosmetics are the pieces of a generic merchant outfit, the silly novelty of which might be worth the grind, except that the final piece is premium content. Setting aside how    I'm going to start with the seasonal content, in case anyone is reading reviews for that purpose.

    The Season of the Malignant is an astoundingly lazy addition to a badly underdeveloped game. The only free cosmetics are the pieces of a generic merchant outfit, the silly novelty of which might be worth the grind, except that the final piece is premium content. Setting aside how unspeakably greedy that is, the outfit is identical for all classes, so it's not exactly a quality asset, however novel.

    I personally doubt I'll ever give Blizzard another dime of my money after my experience with this game, so that's one bandana I'll never unlock.

    Apart from premium cosmetics, all of the new content expires in October, so it's essentially an opportunity for Blizzard to beta-test experimental new mechanics without ever having to balance them, while tempting players to spend money with four-fifths of a stupid merchant costume.

    The actual gameplay content of the season is dreary and boring. Some of the monsters have a creepy new material effect, and you have to kill them twice, for a chance to unlock ephemeral items that will be deleted in two months. There are also several new holes in the ground for you to jump into, and a half-baked story involving exactly one new boss and one new NPC.

    Even the premium seasonal content essentially amounts to a couple of cosmetic sets and a merchant hat. Blizzard is a triple-A studio, and I am astonished at how little new artwork this season contains.

    Ordinarily, starting a new character after completing the campaign comes with a number of quality-of-life improvements. For a seasonal character, in addition to losing all of your stored equipment and accumulated resources, you lose most of your Renown, and your Codex of Power. Losing access to your gold and items is one thing, but the entire appeal of the Renown and Codex mechanics was that they rewarded the investment of your time by applying their benefits to all future characters.

    As for the game itself, it has some enjoyable moments when it isn't loading or crashing, but it's far from a triumph of game design. A good game will show you how to play, without telling you how to play. This game does neither.

    Grinding from levels 1-70 was a reasonably smooth and enjoyable experience. I chose a combination of abilities that seemed useful, and selected equipment to synergize accordingly. The transition to Tier 3 was compelling, with difficulty scaled roughly in line with the skills I had developed as a player, and rewards befitting that accomplishment.

    The transition to Tier 4 was comparatively juvenile. The game abruptly ceases to reward individuality or creativity, in jarring contrast to the preceding hours of gameplay. A clever build that was effortlessly surfing the Helltide in Tier 3 might cease to function entirely in Tier 4, forcing most players to search online for an overpowered build developed by a professional streamer, and start from scratch.

    Blizzard aggressively balances the game against about a dozen builds that actually function at this difficulty, which only narrows the number of viable builds, since those changes also have an impact on players who don't play the game professionally.

    While the limit of six active skills makes for a superficially simple RPG, the final combination of skills, aspects, and paragon glyphs is fiendishly complicated. There are thousands of options to choose from, only about 10% of which form any part of a viable build, and the game waits until Tier 4 to inform you that 90% of your choices were wrong.

    Most online guides for character creation advise the use of one build from levels 1-70, and a radically different build for level 70+. So far, the only corrective measure Blizzard has announced is the promise to reduce the cost of resetting a character by about 40% in the coming weeks. This will make it easier for players to trade a build that has stopped working, for one that wouldn’t have worked before.

    The time you spend playing a game should gradually equip you with the knowledge and skills required to succeed. Instead, Diablo 4 spends hundreds of hours rewarding bad habits and weak abilities, only to drop the hammer abruptly at level 70, while providing no further instruction.

    Apart from the game design issues, I don’t think I’ve ever played a game with such a clumsy disregard for player experience when it comes to networking problems, which is particularly egregious given the mandatory nature of online play.

    Overall, I can't recommend Diablo 4. A lot of talented artists and programmers worked on this game, but they work for sick and greedy people, who have no respect for your time or your intelligence. Please be kind to yourself, and play a better game instead. Maybe give Deep Rock Galactic a shot, their seasonal content is always pretty fun.    … Expand

    The game after level 60 is not to be satisfied. Overall the game is played for nothing. Level scaling does not reflect the increase in power. Itemization is very poor. Item to skill balance is lacking. Technically better than D3, but same crap. I prefer D2.

    Itemization is garbage and an absolute grindfest. Item affixes are just sad for a modern ARPG, and trying to get that one aspect that you really need is worse than grinding currency in Korean MMOs. Unique items - IN A DIABLO GAME - are non-existent. Your mount will stop moving when you barely touch any corner or move your mouse over the UI. World bosses are a sad excuse for a boss since they die in seconds and provide absolutely no excitement... or loot. Skilltree is a sad excuse for a modern game; it would have been fine in D2, but not in 2023.The trade... what trade? There is no trade. If you thought trade was annoying in PoE, forget about it here. It just does not exist.

    Not much. Everyone responsible for everything other than gameplay aspects did their job well. Cutscenes are great, audio is solid, graphics are nothing special but framerates are very stable.

What makes this diablo so **** is that you don’t feel the power of the items, its just that the monsters level scale with you and the only personal choice is how you assemble different legendary suffixes to complement the liquid skill tree. Thats why the game is weak.

    Thats right Were in diablo 2 choices are hardlocked, in diablo 4 all is liquid: socket slots, gem insertion, weapon/armor magical suffixes AND legendary suffixes. All can be salvaged and swapped on another piece of loot. When the total property you can lood is just like a moving river, i can just walk in the rain or go fishing staring at the water instead of playing this boring videogame.

    The only truth of this game is when the horadrim wolf spirit said that the horadrim will fall and that the true hearted warriors of diablo2 must jump ship. This acknowledgment is build in diablo 4 itself. The wolf acknowledged blizzard can never return to diablo 2 so there is really no point making a new game.    … Expand

    Having done everything the game has to offer currently, here is my review about Diablo 4:

    Pros: Fluid combat system Good enough skill trees and paragon boards: Diablo franchise was never about having super complex systems Cons: Poorly written story Low quality of life: - Stash is far from the blacksmith which is far from the jeweler which is far from the occultist... which    Having done everything the game has to offer currently, here is my review about Diablo 4:

    Pros:
    Fluid combat system
    Good enough skill trees and paragon boards: Diablo franchise was never about having super complex systems

    Cons:

    Poorly written story

    Low quality of life:
    - Stash is far from the blacksmith which is far from the jeweler which is far from the occultist... which is far from the portal. So doing stuff on the towns always takes more time than it should
    - Two different items with the same affixes will sometimes have different presentation orders of these affixes
    - Gotta press shift to enable item comparation everytime you start the game
    - Stash too small, no search function and no affinity system in it
    - No glyph search function
    - No "mark as valuable item" inventory function
    - No "sell all" NPC function
    - To teleport to a party member, you have to go to a main town, and only then you go to his portal
    - Going to a Nightmare Dungeon will take you the time of two loading screens
    - Loading screens are really slow even for big specs (at least 4s)
    - No item lootfilter - which is really bad because later on you dont wanna pick gems, normal and sacred items.

    Poorly optimized game performance: too many stutterings on the world map
    No originality: all the concepts in this game can be seen in other games, in D4 these are done in a worse way. For example, the Nightmare Dungeon is a merge between Diablo 3's rifts, greater rifts and bounties (yes, you are forced to do D3-bounty-like missions inside the utmost D4 endgame content)
    Desync issues: currently, the only endgame boss in the game is unbearable due to desync. People have been circumventing this by doing builds that melt the boss so they don't have to deal with and try to dodge hit-kill mechanics. For more on that, look up on youtube for "Diablo 4: Uber Lilith Huge Delay with Low Ping/No Packetloss"
    Unbalanced PvP: level 100 character can fight a level 50 character.

    I could go on and on about every problem this game has, but then the review would get bigger than 5000 characters (max). In short, Diablo 4 is far from polished and finished. You can get more value from your 70 USD on other ARPG games the market has to offer.    … Expand

    Really, really bad.

    Pros: - Cutscenes. - The very start of the game in the first city was really, really good. Much better than everything else in this game to the point that it kinda feels like a scam to hook you just enough for you to not be able to refund (slightly above 2 hours) Cons: Actually hard to even list it all here - Build diversity is a joke - Leveling is very dull    Really, really bad.

    - The very start of the game in the first city was really, really good. Much better than everything else in this game to the point that it kinda feels like a scam to hook you just enough for you to not be able to refund (slightly above 2 hours)

    Cons: Actually hard to even list it all here
    - Build diversity is a joke
    - Leveling is very dull
    - Gamplay is spam a very (very) uninteresting basic ability 3-7 times, then use spender (core ability usually) for 2 times, become resource starved, repeat. Do that for 60 levels or until you find a fully random aspect drop that allows your build to somewhat function. Didn't drop it? yeah.. too bad bud.
    - Campaign is at best average
    - After going through it you start focusing on dungeons. After doing 5-10 dungeons you realize they are actually worse than the campaign, surprisingly so. Low density, HUGE amounts of back tracking, annoying layouts and designs, very lazy asset reusing all over every single one of them.

    All that is something like 10% of all problems this game has. I think it will take multiple years for this game to be fixed, if it is even possible.

    At level 20+ I saw myself wishing that the next cutscene would just arrive sooner, which is odd since I usually skip them in other games.

    My advice would be to keep your money, watch the cutscenes in youtube. I can promise you'll be doing yourself a favor that way.    … Expand

    Let us play this **** game offline! Insanity to force players to be at servers that just hate the players. Should we punish players if we can? Yes, if we are Blizzards! We have escape scrolls if things going really bad. And you thjink people wiould hard quit the game instead so therefor players have to be at the server 10-40 seconds after a disconnect so it is 100 percent for sure the hardcore character dies.

    The problem is not the hours played and the character dies. The **** problem is that we invest a lot of gear, gold and farming to have a fun game. But you took that away from us. Hope you rotten like Elias Blizzards!

    You had all the possibilities to make a great game. Listen to beta testers and so ... No, you are to proud! But we are to smart! Take your game and put it up somewhere!

    If you're not a hardcore gamer or a child you'll burn out with how many hours it takes to max a rune let alone level up. You're pigeon holed into a single build because of specialized gear half the time and there's very little quality of life in the game.

    It takes several hours to get a single level up and you lose armor effectiveness and usually do less damage while gear doesn't improve anything. You'll do a tier 48 dungeon struggling to get by and get a sacred drop with bad stats at item level 686 for your efforts. Sure, you can get some paragon points every now and then to improve yourself a few percent but that doesn't stop monsters from doing more damage and having more life points.

    You'll run out of inventory space easily and waste time trying to find things. You'll spend an entire day just trying to get a single rune to level 15 out of 21 hoping maybe it'll improve your abilities while the monsters at higher tiers can still one shot you.

    But really, knowing they're just going to delete your character and make you start over once they start selling season passes? This game doesn't have any replayability. There's no enjoyment in it.

    Nothing exciting happens and there's almost never any new gear that improves on the stuff I have that drops. Weekly world boss chests? Yeah, there's nothing good in there. Helltide chests? Sometimes but almost never.

    It's just a soulless grind and slog that I always feel disgusted for having played again when I should have been out touching grass. Trust me when I say I regret buying it because of how much time I've wasted on it for a bad after taste. The story was amusing and I'm sure the developers were doing their best under Blizzards conditions but it's as though they took the idea for nightmare dungeons from World of Warcraft and made a game with even more grind and spiders.

    They purposely try to make things take longer because they want your money, not because they want to provide entertainment. The game is awful even if it's pretty and decent for the first few days.

    In the end, it's only remotely worth it if you want to just beat the relatively short story and call it quits from there. If you don't, you'll end up just as sour and annoyed as I am. At least, unless you're a bizzarro person who likes second jobs you had to pay for sucking away at your life.

    Update: Giving it a zero because of the season garbage and the fact their patches only make it worse. Wanting to charge us money for battle passes every season for a game that's more of a chore than entertainment is just nonsense. They actually saw the bad reviews and must have thought "Hold my beer, I'm going to make the game WORSE."    … Expand

    As a live service ARPG: U finished the good part when u finished the campaign, now you're in the realm of grinding non stop to get your first set of items that make sense for your build, which will happen within a day or 2 depending on luck, and then getting minor upgrades after reading over thousands of items. You're grinding for no reason because there's no difficult content (Or more like no reason to do it), completely overblown lilith as the last boss, which most builds wont even kill with best gear, unless you're playing that 1 specific broken build on your class currently. And then she drops nothing, just like the 90+ lvl nightmare dungeons. None of it makes any sense, ur character is built and done by level 80-85 and there's nothing to do apart from more of the same. Skill choice doesn't exist, u have 2 skills that are good and actually do dmg per class and even those are constantly getting nerfed. U can't give any of the gear u drop to ur alts or friends either cuz they're all lvl locked to ur current level, so if u're at 100, anyone that wants to wear that also needs 100. UI of a mobile game. No transparent map in an ARPG. Whoever came up with the scaling prices on rerolls and gear enchanting without a cap, should be fired and never hired for any game design position ever again. Spending 120 mill on an item and still not getting the 1 stat you want, wtf is that. All of the content is useless apart from nightmare dungeons and hell tides. Tree, world bosses, goblins, world events, legion all drop nothing and are a complete waste of time in comparison.

    If some random gaming studio released this, people would be **** on it 24/7 and it would've already been buried. But Blizzard has an army of shills. I really tried giving this game a chance and a lot of patience, but it's as barebones as ARPGs get.

I left a comment on their advertisement, "I hope many people are not triggered by the word malignant. *Face Palm* Might as well call it Stage 4 Cancer." I got a communications ban after that from XBOX. Better not have an opinion or any emotions when it comes to Blizzard's paycheck. I'm sure no one else connected the word malignant to common cancer deaths of their friends, family and heroes.

Diablo 2 was a little different but still we quickly loved it for many improvements compared to its processor. We were really hoping Diablo 3 will improve many things from Diablo 2 and will bring even more new stuff but it did not happen – that game completely destroyed not only the story of original games and became horrible step backward. After such failure and many others from Blizzard I did not expect anything good from Diablo 4 and I was right by doing this.
    Story: It’s horrible even after Diablo 3 it still horrible. Dialogs, narration, characters, everything is bad. I don’t know who wrote dialogs and the whole story but it so stupid, primitive and unlogic. When I was playing I did not care about what was going on – you just cannot care for such soulless characters and story at all. Many in-game cinematics are just pathetic and even main antagonist Lilith brought only one feeling from me – disgust.
    Gameplay: this is where the game failed so hard. The gameplay is repetitive, monotone, easy and boring. Developers did not even bother to bring some new mechanics into the game. Monsters are easy to kill and do not bring you any challenge despite the difficulty level. Whole game you will have to make same activities over and over again in hopes of getting new legendary item. Many dungeons look absolutely the same and looks like developers did not even bother with its design. Besides you just cannot make game interesting when you have to kill your mouse with 2 spells when other 4 spells have 20-45 seconds cooldown.
    Character development: you level up and get new skills from talent tree but very-very soon you realize there is no choice in talent tree and it is only an illusion – there is no diversity in character build. The only thing you will care and will make you stronger – items but not just items – only legendries since other categories exist just for nothing and on higher levels you will just ignore them.
    Atmosphere: developers tried to bring dark atmosphere from Diablo and Diablo 2 but succeed only partially. The game does not look so cartoonish like Diablo 3 but still it is not even close to the first two games. The world itself is empty and does not create a feeling of fear and helplessness. You could see the developers was in a hurry and many things in the world made poorly or not made at all.
    Graphic: it’s ok but nothing outstanding. Still it brings very big resemblance to Diablo 3 which in my opinion is nothing good. The character looks ugly as hell you just cannot even crate normal looking man/woman.
    Audio: it is quite bad since you will spend almost whole your time in the gray mass of monsters on your screen you just cannot highlight anything good in it. If you think I forgot about music, I did not – there is none here, something playing in dungeons, cities and fields but most of time you just cannot say it is even existing.
    The last two nails on the coffer are monetization and many bugs in the game.
    Diablo 4 has nothing common with Diablo and Diablo 2 – you cannot even call this game Diablo anymore – it looks like Diablo Immortal 2.0. If you ever loved Diablo and Diablo 2 stay away from this horrible game made by lazy and greedy people from Blizzard – believe me when developers who does not care what are they are doing, does not care about world they are using and developers who are lazy as hell and cares only for money – you cannot get anything normal game from them (I just even cannot say good).    … Expand

There is no end game, there is no enjoyable content to do after finishing the story, itemization is incredibly unfun and pigeon holed, skill trees are boring. On top of all these things, developers hasn't even bothered fixing the bugs and issues people clearly and repeatedly reported during the beta. Do not, I repeat, do not buy this game.

    When this game first launch, I enjoyed it all the way up to today's patch. They nerfed 90% of everything and completely made nightmare dungeons with enemies below your level one shot you. If I could get a refund I would. As far as story goes, its good but Blizzard definitely screwed up with this patch they released.

    You think players gonna enjoy the game more if you nerf all builds into the ground, nope they will not.

    Out of touch with the player base. Devs would rather talk about their colon issues than fix basic flaws with their game. They make promises then never follow threw with them. Their goal is to drag out the leveling process as long as possible to sell you cosmetics.

    Blizzard top management & shareholders, your decision-making IS ruining your games.

    You are destroying your company in the long run. I mean, you’ve been destroying it for a while now.

    But then along comes patch 1.1, which basically nerfs all enjoyment to the game and does the OPPOSITE of fun or what the community wants or needs.

    Nerfing XP into the ground, along with the cooldown reduction, damage output and tankiness. So they've basically turned the game into an even bigger, slower grind where people sit there waiting for cooldowns and grind out the same lack of content over and over.

    Instead of making builds and stats more viable, they just nerf the good ones so every build is useless.
    Instead of making the game more enjoyable, improving quality of life, or making builds more fun, they just nerf everyone.
    Instead of making unique items actually usable, they just add more useless uniques.
    Instead of adding more content, they just increase the grind (helltides AND nightmare dungeons).
    Instead of improving the weakest class in the game (Sorcerers i'm looking at you), they outright nerfed them as well.

    etc etc.

    And all this whilst we still have no easy way to try out of change builds, or even reset our skill tree's or paragon trees. Still nowhere to store all all our gems, aspects, or items. And uniques (apparently the best items in the game), are still useless.

    Diablo 4: the boring grind.

    Patch 1.1 has utterly ruined the game. They've decimated every single class, slashing their damage and defense. Instead of introducing new avenues to amplify power, they've simply made the sole viable method even weaker. Rest in peace, Diablo 4. Rumor has it that Path of Exile is flourishing, offering a far superior experience.

    The new patch fixes none of the current problems and nerfs all builds/experience... this makes it clear that nothing good can be expected going forward. Avoid paying full price for this game, as it is only worth it for the campaign. Such a shame.

    While the future of the game is anyone’s guess, at present Diablo IV is a solid, but strangely unambitious take that fails to bring much new to the table. By the end of my travels, I was more than willing to put it down and take a break — somewhere amongst all the grinding, Diablo IV had unfortunately ground me down as well.
