Jesus Christ Blizzard, I guess you are still setting new standards in the gaming industry, just not good ones. Has anyone ever opened reddit or Twitter from your team? How was it a good idea to nerf everything across the board into the ground? You deal less damage than before the patch, which makes leveling even more of a grind. You can take less damage which makes you die faster, which makes leveling more of a grind. On top of that you destroyed cool downs across the board. How is it fun to run in circles to wait for the cooldowns? It's mind boggling really. And to round it up you decided to finally delete the sorc from the game, because f*** it, sorc was bad in pre season already so why not just delete it from the game altogether?… Expand

    At this point (and I'll admit, probably many points ago), Blizzard is just another game developer that stopped developing games and became another mindless corporation enslaved to their shareholders.

    Do yourself a favor and just support the few AAA studios left that still have a genuine passion for storytelling and game design, and of course indie studios where raw talent and passion thrive.

    You CAN'T even buy a premium battle pass if you purchased the 100$ version that came with an accelerated battle pass because the game FORCES you to use it, even though Blizzard explicitly said you can save it for later seasons!

    Sure you can, but if you do you CAN'T get the premium battle pass because the game forces you to use the accelerated battle past first!

    The 1.1.0 patch completely gutted the game, and it was so widely hated they had to do an emergency livestream the following friday just to try and quell the backlash.

    This has been ONE of the BIGGEST flops i've ever seen, honestly.
    I don't know how they dropped the ball this hard, how they're so out of touch with their community.

Preordered ultimate and waited for months until beta came out and was very hyped because it seemed fun and „fresh”. The only thing I said was I hope they dont mess up the endgame. I was right because there is no end game to mess up. I dont even know where to begin. Meaningless time consuming grind with no reward behind it. Absolutely no end game, no incentive to keep playing past 70. No set items, no storage, no party finder, no leaderboards, terrible item system. NO TRADING??? Whats the reason behind strongholds ? Regrinding renown is a joke. Why are blue and white items in the game ? Terrible cosmetics. Everything is structured around milking players out of money - terrible seasons system. Since they tried so hard to turn it into a soft mmo its missing everything that would make it any good. Just for example, arena pvp with seasonal cosmetic rewards would fix endgame problems as it would actually give players a reason to grind to 100 to climb pvp leaderboards for rewards. Maybe clan wars since its open pvp ? Or clan battles to take over strongholds (clans keep them for a week and get rewards for it) LITERALLY ANYTHING that would want players to actually compete or interact in any way. But nope that would be too good to be true. Also my grinded renown didnt transfer to season 1. I play HC and died on my rogue at 82, made a new character - got to 82 also. Now comes season 1, for some reason blizzard employees didnt know how to write code so they made it so you have to log in with a character that has everything unlocked. But my rogue died at 82 and my new character doesnt have altars or renown grinded because i refuse to grind it again so now im forced to grind them all over again. My choices are either stick to eternal realm and dont play season ( i got ultimate so i have season pass) because i have the renown and altars there OR play s1 without anything unlocked. Im forced to quit because im not grinding everything again. Im a father and I run a business and it took me a week to get all altars. I will never buy a blizzard game again. Fail dev team… Expand

    Diablo 4 is a game with a lot of potential, but the recent dev activity is incredibly worrisome.

The intent seems to be to slow the player down in order to keep players grinding as opposed to actually improving the game itself. The nerfing of the eternal realm paired with the solutions to said nerfs in the new season is a very clear attempt to funnel people out of their current characters and into new seasonal characters. The premium battlepass linked into this seasonal character progression makes it quite easy to see the likely motivation for these changes. The devs want to make money off of the current player base. The way they make money is by getting as many players as possible to play in the new season for as long as possible in order to get as much exposure to and purchasing of the battlepass as possible. This is frankly a very scummy approach and very concerning for the future of the game. Diablo 4 isn't a bad game, it has strong roots to it, and with a little bit of work, it could be an incredible and long lived game. However, the current direction that the game is taking unfortunately doesn't suggest this outcome. Things may eventually start moving in the right direction, but currently the dev strategy seems to be focused on profit over enjoyable player experiences. Hopefully the negative reception to their current direction moves things back on track, but with the current state and direction of the game, I'd advise waiting to see how things turn out. Paying $70 for a game that is seemingly being developed with the primary intent of farming you for more money is frankly not worth it. Hopefully Diablo 4 takes the Battlefront 2 trajectory and rebounds from a predatory game to a genuinely good production, but only time will tell.… Expand

    The only reason to play the game is continuing the Diablo franchise story, which is probably best done by watching a video of someone completing. This is due to the fact that they have side quests that do not align healthily with the story.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game had a pretty Ok launch. It had many bugs, however player base ignored that simply because at first the game looked fun.
    Once people started reaching the end of the campaign, leveling from 50-100 became a lot more repetitve, tho you as a player sticked to NMD, Helltides, Whisper Trees, World Bosses.
    Once I got to level 70 it all started to be even more boring, suddenly my only options where Helltides and NMD, (and from time to time Worldboss).
    Once you get to level 100, only thing left to do is grind, grind and grind. I get it, all of this might be part of an ARPG?
    But then I decided to levelup a couple of alters and TBH, my sorcerer early game was fun, but after 50 I simply leveled it up just because I wanted to see its endgame, spoiler, mostly trash, and I tried several builds.
    The rogue, however it was fun to play from the very early to the endgame, tho In comparison to my necromancer (my main char) it never dealt as much damage, but I don't see that as a problem, since necromancer was designed that way (a bit OP, to my taste).

    When patch 1.1.0a came and I read balance patch I was thrilled to read patch notes, maybe they went for an small step towards a balanced game, but I still was missing fundamental features like:
    - More stash space.
    - Turning gems into artisan material (to save up inventory space).
    - Adding loadouts
    - Increasing the amount of end-game content.
    - Social features, like global chat, LFG
    - Many other features actively requested by the community.

    Don't get me wrong I get it, you can't get all the content at the start of a game, but then I went over the patch notes for 1.1.0a and I could not believe what I was reading, they basically nerfed EVERY class, except for rogue (or better said, rogue was the one coming out of it in the better shape).
    And they nerfed XP, consequently slowing everyone's progress in the game.

    So I was pissed of, after investing hundreds of hours at the game Blizzard was just releasing a patch that effectively was making the gameplay WORSE, making the Eternal Realm not a viable option for the majority anymore. So the only hope was the Seasonal Realm

    Today I decided, even after the disastrous 1.1.0a patch, give a try to the seasonal content, and after 5hours of play I just went off-line, everything is much more less fun to play.
    And about balancing (the one thing they were supposedly addressing with the latest patch) mostly everyone is playing Rogue, Necro or Druid in this order and my necro which was OP is still OP, just doing half the damage.

    In conclusion, i would not recommend anyone buying the game, at least for the time being.    … Expand

    Honestly the story was really engaging to me, not as stellar as d2 or d3 but definitely fun to play.
    The end game was a slog where you would do the same dungeons over and over again to max your glyphs and level up... it really didn't feel fun, was slow and beyond boring.

    I logged on to the game after patch 1.1 to a gutted character. My character is useless and i you have to use gold to remove your paragon. Some items that I spent ages and millions of gold and crafting components to get perfect are now useless.

    So they just killed my character essential, so the whole slog I went through with the end game to get this stuff was a complete waste of time.

    Despite this, I have now played the new season 1 for 4 hours.
    It feels like a mobile game, the battle pass cosmetics are tragic, the main quests are cut up by an arbitrary task list that has no other function than it gets you some cosmetics, I legitimately got 50 malignant hearts and each one feels like it only has 2 or 3 different options... it's… Man, it's just dull.

    If all this wasn't the case, you would still have to deal with loading screens that either crash the game or you have to Alt f4. Fat-fingering the season pass button, so you have now bought the season pass. THERE IS NO CONFIRMATION. Invisible walls appearing stopping you from going places. The quests bugging, causing you to be kicked out of the game and have to do the same chain again. When leaving towns the mounts sometimes seem to be unable to dash... until you dismount and wait 9 seconds to get back on it... some people are still stuck on queues for the game. There are issues with certain abilities not being able to add skill points too. i have a GTX 3090ti and it still jitters when leaving towns. There's a VRAM leaking problem that makes the game unplayable.

    I just… I love Diablo, I'm so sad that it started so well, and then they just stabbed themselves in the back. THIS IS A TRIPLE A company... and they can't even make a server work properly. They have been doing this for decades.

    If all this is fine then buy it by all means, but this is not an ARPG this is a MMO gatcha mobile game with amazing art and ZERO substance

    maybe this will change but I have lost all trust in this company and I have played Diablo forever and WOW since vanilla

    They just randomly adjust some parameters and release a new version.

    Beta Necromancer Corpse Explosion: I don't think you need to play until level 10, not even level 20. Basically, once you activate the skill and use it once, you can tell it's overpowered.

    Result: Once it went live, players immediately found it powerful and they immediately nerfed it? Seriously, if they had played and tested it properly, how could they not know?

    Drop rate reduced in Wave mode: You can't even collect 50 items in 20 minutes.

    Result: And then they get called out for it and claim it's a bug? Seriously, if they had played and tested it properly, it would only take 5 minutes to see if there's a problem. Just a normal trip between two points in the village would be enough to notice, even with occasional detours, it should take no more than 10 minutes to collect 175 items. I'm not even that fast, there are definitely people who have faster methods.

    The above perfectly proves that they didn't test it properly, just randomly adjusted parameters and released a new version! How else could they not notice?

    For a game company of this size, is this the attitude and approach they take towards game development?

    With this kind of behavior, it's truly absurd and reflects a lack of intelligence and competence.

    If I were to ask Blizzard about this, I'm sure they would just instantly censor the "chatroom." Oh, I'm overestimating them—maybe they would even shut down the chatroom entirely. LOL    … Expand

    Hello Blizzard D4 Team. I am a long time gamer who was very excited about playing Diablo 4 after the very long production time it took to release this game. I have paid and played Diablo 3 when it was initially release back in 2012. I have participated in D3's real money market and I have sunk in a significant amount of money at the time. It was over $1,000.00.

I have paid and played Diablo 3 when it was initially release back in 2012. I have participated in D3's real money market and I have sunk in a significant amount of money at the time. It was over $1,000.00.

    I have played the free game from Grinding Gear Games's Path of Exile and I really loved it for the dark and gritty storyline. I have sunk in over $2,000.00 in buying their cosmetics.

    Recently I have played Tripod and Smilegate's Lost Ark game and it was amazing for its game play action and quality of life mechanics for their users. There was no funny business about not putting an easily accessible built-in timer for the world bosses or other events.

    They have events where they have eight users play together in the same game instance.
    This literally blew me away as it was more fun to play with more players.

    Also, I have sunk in over $2,000.00 in buying their cosmetics for customizing my characters.

    What I am trying to convey to you Blizzard as a company who needs to satisfy their shareholders is why are you trying to make a fun game very annoying to play with longer time gate mechanics? Not everyone can play like the top one percent diehard professional gamers.

    I have a job where I have to work over 50 hours per week. Why are you making me regret my decision about purchasing the ultimate edition of Diablo 4 during its pre-release?

    I do have an actual life you know where I regularly meet up with family and friends.

    I definitely think you will be losing me as a loyal customer who was potentially willing to spend a lot of money on the game's cosmetics.

    Please do clean up your act and really listen to the userbase and the top professional gamers who play for a living and have experienced the god awful decisions from your development team.

    I choose not to spout hate in my zero star review of Diablo 4 at this current time.

My suspicions were confirmed by even the developers themselves when they released a live stream and was obvious the developers have no idea about Diablo in any of the variants. Much less trying to design Diablo for. So they're obviously learning on the fly, which I guess with the me too movement and the social justice were movement. That's infested blizzard. It's to be expected. Baldur's gate 3 and starfield are quite a bit more fun. The games actually look like the developers new, what they were doing and so far have held my attention much better.

    First off I am a business owner, so I take it VERY SERIOUSLY before writing a review. Let alone a NEGATIVE ONE. But I had too. I am so disappointed with this game and I'm going to tell you why. Waited over 10 years for this game. After grinding for a decade on Diablo 3 - My first introduction to the game.

Let alone a NEGATIVE ONE. But I had too. I am so disappointed with this game and I'm going to tell you why. Waited over 10 years for this game. After grinding for a decade on Diablo 3 - My first introduction to the game.

    Diablo 4 started off amazing. And really had a decent story, much better gameplay than Diablo 3 and fixed a ton of stuff. Problem here is two fold. I have NEVER liked seasons. I think it's the dumbest idea ever personally. I think they are entirely a waste - And forces you to NOT continue progressing the same character that you love obviously, and it's unfortunate that you are pigeon-holed into continuing with what blizzard wants you to do, and not exactly what you want to do. Making previous characters irrelevant, then onto next sprint to another pointless season.

    2nd problem with this game is the fact that the nerfs, buffs, and patches don't just come. They come with a FORCE. It's not a simple, "lets fix a couple things." It's literally: "Hey you guys are having fun with our video game, and finding all this cool stuff, and very serious players are reaping many rewards because they SLAVED 100's of hours? Yeah, lets NUKE your fun." The last patch they put out was the most atrocious, despicable, and relentless change to a video I have ever seen in 32 years. The saddest thing I have ever experienced playing video games personally. And it felt personal. I am not alone in this. Read the dang reviews lol.

    Instead of some really reasonable fixes, they NUKED all characters, and made my personal favorite Rogue absolutely unplayable. Especially at high levels. Taking away the one thing that made them playable - LEACH. I Could push HIGH 75's+ NM dungeons with relative ease bases on building a badass character with endless time and tinkering put in, and now low 60's are hard, and taking away most of the fun and progression higher. Patch goal = add to the grind factor. Like really? Dude Diablo franchise is already a grind. You don't multiply that for the sake of doing so. It's a grind franchise by default. Don't forcibly add to that.

    I say this as a major warning when it comes to doing any involvement with blizzard. They are a cash grab. I saw it in Diablo 3. DO NOT be fooled by FALSE critic reviews Who are NOT GAMERS. THE devs are after money. They are not after creating the best video game, and they showed us this when the last patch came out. And also many changes back int he day of D3. They destroyed "eternal realm" that I was playing 6 hours a day on+ to wanting to uninstall the game. Literally I'm not playing at all anymore overnight. Was even going to splurge on a $6,000 custom computer setup just for the game. Money is not an issue and I had fun. Why not?! Not anymore. Back to final fantasy. Diablo 4 as of right now is dead, and DO NOT be fooled by critics and dev's who are NOT PLAYERS.

    I have worked in many industries. Reviews can be bought, and blizzard devs are NOT your friend. They are a business that need to monetize margins and revenue. Destroying eternal realm to push everyone into seasons to "try and keep it fresh," and sell you things (cosmetics, etc) is their game. They are not after all players. They are after the widest "monetizeable demographic." Trust me... I teach people how to scale their businesses and top-line revenue. I know they're game. They don't care about the major gamer, the hardcore gamer, they just want to appeal to the casual mindless zombie that "toes the line" and will show up no matter how much they nuke their fun. Each season after another.

    Marvel did this when after "Avengers Endgame" - They made everything a joke, stupid, and for kiddies, because they could make more money. Quantity over quality. It's not about good story here. It's the cheese/bread/dinero/$.

    It really saddens me to make this post as I really liked D4 in the beginning. It is an unplayable empty shell husk compared to what we started with. Hope this does not come off as whining, but more of a diary or therapy session LOL for venting. Blizzard did the community DIRTY, and I promise you they don't care. It will only get worse. This is their intro.

    You are not their priority. Profit is. This is expected.

    "When you try and save everyone, you doom everyone."

    Good luck with your seasons. Hopefully not everyone feels this way, and some still enjoy the game, but like I said. They absolutely desecrated major gamers, and what makes a game fun, and what makes it so fun to keep showing up too. Retiring Diablo 4. GG blizzard. You guys won. I hope your margins were worth it.

    P.S. Don't introduce uber uniques at such a low drop rate, that nobody over the course of 4000 hours of gameplay will ever find, and even if they do find ONE, they can still roll bad stats. Like dudes, what were you thinking. Dev team is so out of touch it's bonkers. Shame. Good luck all. Hope this helps!    … Expand

It's evident that the developers lack a genuine understanding of what makes the Diablo series so beloved and compelling, resulting in a watered-down experience that feels like a pale imitation of its predecessors.    … Expand

    Understanding that gameplay is more important than profits is crucial for a "game" company.

    Because it is a game company, after all.

    There seems to be no trace of consideration for what makes the users enjoy the game.

    It is unpleasant to sense a focus on what will inconvenience the users and create unnecessarily long playtimes.

    $100 that I feel is the most regrettable in my life.

    The item system sucks, drop rates suck, there are not really many items that you’re looking for anyway.

    There is no endgame, after lvl 45/50 you have to keep on doing the same F’ing dungeons.
    Your characters are slow and weak (ive tried 3 outta 5 before i had to quit this game). If you are really lucky in this game, you only have to backtrack every dungeon twice. (Grab the stone from the one F’ing side of the dungeon, walk back to return it)

    Quality of life is terrible: pets that picked up items are gone, there are no loot filters, vendors/blacksmith in town take ages to reach. The horse isnt much faster than ordinary running. You have to make mules for your first Alt bc lack of inventory space.


    There is just so much more, they really messed up with this one, don’t see it ever becoming better.

    Diablo 4 is the worst game of my 20 year gaming career, I regret buying this game! Blizzard: "Come on son, let me teach you how to play this game！“

    The game desparately needs quality of life improvements, a sound approach to reworkring the loot system and most importantly developers with a keen ear to the ground. I hope it's not too late.

    Diablo 4 has been terrible from the start, so many things broken and unfixed since the beta and now they break even more things and made the game just overall worse with the new patch. Can't believe i paid money for this garbage

    Prost: its the Diablo universe
    Cons: zones/ Monster/ Quest and items Levels with you. You dont feel stronger until the late Game where you optimize everything. You cant trade because you can only trade with people in your Level range... Its mostly class bound Item Drops mostly for the class you Play... Getting items for twinks is Not possible at all, because IT would have a top high Level    Prost: its the Diablo universe

You cant trade because you can only trade with people in your Level range... Its mostly class bound Item Drops mostly for the class you Play... Getting items for twinks is Not possible at all, because IT would have a top high Level and will most likely Just Not Drops for another class.
    Because everything Levels with you, Levels feel meaningless, they give you new Skill Points so you can handle the increased difficulty of the Monsters in combination with your Gear getting worse and worse each Level... Got a uniq you want to keep? Well **** you, stats are getting top weak in the next Levels anyways.

    There super uniqs which cant be farmed for, which means you will most likely never See them... And If you See them, good luck in getting good stats on them...

    There 4 difficulties... Tier 1 aka. "Most efficient, because its fast for the Story Line"
    Tier 2 aka. "Basicly Tier 1 with a littlebit more Challenge... Most likely not worth IT because u get slower"
    Tier 3 aka. "Chose me If you can, i got a new Item Tier... If you dont Chose me, all Drops you get are meaningless"
    Tier 4 aka. "Now we are talking, another, even better Item Tierlist... Remember Tier 3 ancient items? **** that **** Its Trash now"

    In Diablo 1... 2 and in generel 3.... Getting better items, progressing ment that you get stronger and feel stronger... New items gave you Major Advantages... But Sometimes there were cool Set bonis from lower Sets which could even be used in late Game... Getting Gear for twinks/ Friends or even random new Friends you met on the way, was fun and rewarding... In Diablo 4 everything feels meaningless... You have no reason to keep Low Level items... Little to no way to Support a friend with some items or the fact that you could Help them through tuff Battles. Diablo 2: Got a new build? Try it Out... Go back to Nightmare and farm Gear for it.. Progress and master it.
    Diablo 4: Got a new build? Well **** you... Respec every single Paragon Skill one by one... And oh Buddy, i Hope you got your full Gear rdy, because otherwise you Go Back to Tier 3 or even 2... Remember the new item Tier you Had in Tier 4? Forget it... Grind it till you bleed... Diablo 4, truly is hell.

    tl;dr
    Blizzard ****ed Diablo 4 already and doesnt even try to make it better.
    Listing to Players? **** them! They dont know what they want! Classic? Nah, will never Happen! A good Diablo 4? Do you Not have phones?

    **** Diablo 4 until its fixed.    … Expand

    If Nickelback decided to make video games, this is what I would expect. I waited until the season just in case they decided to do a Lloyd spend a decade in a wheelchair and then be like Gotcha! but no.

    None of the quality of life features that took years of player interaction to work out have been introduced into this game. Also, the premium battle pass offers in game currency that will give you enough coins to buy... nothing.

    From a good(not great) early/mid-game + campaign and big marketing campaign that probably made them 1-2 billion in revenue in the first few weeks - while making people literally pay $70-100 to be beta testers especially for the end game - to making people quit the game with season 1 to cut cost.

    I mean kudos to Blizzard - that was a genius move.

    I rate this 0 because of the last patch and it is not because they nerfed lots of stuff but because of HOW they nerfed things. To me it shows they have 0 respect for their customers time, they have no clue how their own game works and the game is simply not fun after the content runs out at lvl 50 or so. Also the way items work in this game is just boring.

Utterly un inspiering, unique items suck and aspect farming gets really boring after a while.

    I did enjoy the first hours in the game though but its still subpar to most other games out there. Holding my thumbs for POE 2, atleast those devs showed they are competent.    … Expand

    when i buy bad fish i give it back to the seller,
    when my life long i love to eat white bread i dont want Black bread,
    when i didnt good my job i was fired, and had to look for another one,
    i did buy diablo 4 as ARPG i dont want MOORPG, and so on, the list is very long
    it is not worth, waist of my time, to talk about them all.

    as many think, he talk to me, he wants something from me, so i can do as i like,
    he will stay with me,

    wrong Blizzard im out,

    and i say you as an old man change you mind, and way how
    you interact with your playerbase, another way you have to look for another
    job as i did, 40 years ago, maybe earlier as you would like.

    so as i said i dont want nothing from you, but you need my money Blizzard,
    trust is earned, and you lost my trust.

    Patch 1.1 ruins all the loots you got, wastes your time to rebuild your skill / paragon if your class still has a visual build (not for barbarian and sorceress). It just simple denied all your play time rewards and tells you get over with it. Good job Blizzard.

    While the main campaign is decent and midly enganging. Unfortunuately the abismal endgame ruins the experience: the acvtivities are boring and the reward sucks. To cover for this lack of enganging content, just before the start of season 1 Blizzard had the wonderful idea of gutting the damage of all the classes AND nerfing the xp gains to artificially increase playtime.

    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.
