    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Juego con muchísimos problemas de conexión y de jugabilidad, caída continua de fps, lag, desconexiones constantes, poco contenido endgame... Y ahora con el lanzamiento de la primera temporada, han terminado de romper el juego. Cualquier tipo de problema técnico que pueda tener un juego, este lo tiene. Tiempos de espera para entrar de más de media hora, tiempos de pantalla de carga de más de diez minutos, usar los teletransportes equivale a desconectarse del juego, ir a caballo equivale a que se congele la pantalla y mueras o que se desconecte el juego, ir andando implica que te encuentres con muros invisibles que no puedes atravesar en medio de un pueblo desierto porque el juego no ha sido capa, de cargarlo... Luego intentas comunicar los errores a su sistema técnico y no hay forma de hacerlo. Muy descontento con el juego y su servicio técnico, es prácticamente una estafa. Expand

    I never write reviews but for this piece off crap i'm willing to make an account and start giving it the points it deserves.
    Hopefully the colonoscopy results nerfs devs life expectation.

    Diablo 3 is better in every way other than graphics. It's laggy and the dev team seems determined to ruin the game with patches. As soon as you find something fun, they patch it out. Absolute trash.

    If you like repetative seasons and doing low damage and increased cooldown, this is the game for you. But not for me however. 1/10

    Wofür spielt man denn bis tief in die Nacht um das letzte bisschen Item voll auszukratzen um wenigstens etwas auszuteilen nur um dann zu sehen das all die Arbeit mit Füßen getreten wird. Nun macht das Spiel so wie es ist einfach keinen Spaß mehr. 1 Schuss sofort tot! Am liebsten würde ich mich hier ganz anders äußern aber das würde auch nichts ändern.

    After the patch, I tried some nightmare dungeons and found my character was way weaker than before. What is the point of the massive nerfs if most of the content in the game is PVE, especially when the original version contains very difficult content for most players already? I felt frustrated and decided to quit the game.

    Plenty of people said it better than I did, but yea, this game is overpriced garbage. But hey, what else did we expect. It's Blizzard. The only new thing that came out of that pile of dung is that their customer support rejecting your every request is no longer done by underpaid call centres, but instead by bad AI.

    - World Scaling (Leveling up is downright punishing and you don't feel any progress from leveling up or finding items)
    - Itemization (World Tier 3 = Sacred | World Tier 4 = Ancestral
    They are the same items just with bigger % on the affixes - Stupid and unnecessary cluttering affixes in items (After patch 1.10, nothing to write about ... we all know how it looks) This game is a waste

    This game is a waste of time, because in order to feel it in the end game you have to get to lvl 50 painstakingly, and after that you will still have up to lvl 70 because everything is the same for every level you get. Early game is a pain in the ass.

    +1 Nice graphics, just nice.

    Made an account just for this.

    New char per season is horrible when main audience of your game are older people with jobs. Very few individuals are jobless enough to grind every season, and the game now is even grindier in current state. If you create a new character for the new season and decide to skip campaign, it feels - there's no aim in the game, just do random grinds. It

    It was so boring after just 30-45 minutes, I decided to say goodbye to this useless piece of **** cash grab. I hope Blizzard rots. I regret spending moneh on this trash game.

    After playing 10 years of league of legends I've never seen a patch which destroys the overall from the game so much like D4 did with only one patch
    The game overall is finde, I had my fun but I thought patches are for quality of life changes and mostly bug fixes but taking out the fun of every aspect of the game? GG blizzard ...

    Devs are incompetent.
    The best value is to 'selling less complete game'
    Never buy a Blizzard game again.

    Game was fun and then Blizzard decided that was a bad thing and killed it with a single patch.
    I have 0 desire to play the game after this. Many of the changes made don't even make sense.
    Game still has all the same problems it had and all they did was make the leveling experience worse. Will look back into the game in a few season to see if Blizzard decides to provide a fun game again.

    Just something to add, I actually had this at a 7 prior to this patch and would say my rating is based more on the developers taking steps to worsen the game.

    Ne possède que de diablo le nom.... itemisation abominable, ergonomie de l'affichage d'un autre siècle, un endgame totalement absent ect ect... Diablo2 et même diablo 3 sont largement au dessus. Si je pouvais me faire rembourser je le ferais sans hésitation aucune.

I bought the ultimate package and now I am looking for a new game to play. I woke up and things I could do before I can no longer do. I DIE immediately on whet should be easy content. Expand

    Game is engineered to manipulate the player into the seasonal mode, wherein the game will pressure you via fomo and other sociological vectors to engage with the battle pass hoping you will make the purchase. This realization is made worse when you find out your character, on which you have been playing for potentially hundreds of hours, will be reset along with the battle pass… containingGame is engineered to manipulate the player into the seasonal mode, wherein the game will pressure you via fomo and other sociological vectors to engage with the battle pass hoping you will make the purchase.

Game is a waste of time, and a vehicle for blizzard to manipulate the player base into feeling ties to a battle pass… shameful game design from a company Expand

    After spending approximately over 2000 hours in Diablo I and over 5000 hours in Diablo II, this feels like a game made by 2 teenagers with google searches on a Friday night drinking spree. I regret buying this product and I feel scammed. Sadly I cannot sue them for this scam because I would in a heartbeat

    I liked this game...now it is unplayable! I have been playing Diablo since D1 as a casual player. I completed D1, D2, and D3 many times, but wouldn't say I am a hardcore Diablo player. It used to a be a great RPG experience of leveling up, getting better items, and then finding some cool stuff for each class. The story lines were great. Then came D4...

    I used this as a guide for my Ice

It used to a be a great RPG experience of leveling up, getting better items, and then finding some cool stuff for each class. The story lines were great. Then came D4...

    I used this as a guide for my Ice Sorc. (https://www.thegamer.com/diablo-4-sorcerer-ice-shards-build-guide/)

    Visuals - Stunning! The game looks awesome!

    Sound - The game is missing the iconic Diablo background sound track! I'm surprised they didn't use it anywhere!

    Story - I don't know. That's just it, I can't finish the game!

    Game Play - Since the new patch 1.1, my character (Ice Sorc) can't do anything! I used to be able to handle a crowd of enemies with some ease or even some challenge with elites. Now forget it...I can't even handle 5 low level clans in the open maps and Dungeons, quests, and story line cannot be completed! They NERFd the hell out of me! I'm useless now!

    My ~30 level Sorc would deal about 300 per Ice Shard, so about 1500 per enemy shot. Now I'm down to 250 (1250 Total) and the health for the bad guys went up about 15%. That makes my char 35% weaker! But wait...there is more! Now my cooldown was about 1-2 seconds, now it's 3! So...

    Before Patch
    1500 Damage Per Second
    ~1.5 second cool down
    Normal Enemy Health
    CAN kill single enemies from distance before they get close enough.

    After Patch
    1250 Damage per Second
    ~3 second Cool Down
    Increased enemy health
    CAN'T kill single enemies from distance before they get close enough.

    So i have to run around, jump freeze, run away, all while my cooldowns are ready, then BAM the monsters on top of me again...

    UNPLAYBLE NOW! FIX IT!

    Unfortunately, Blizzard does not like their loyal fans. They simply seek to siphon your money without even putting effort into their products or listen to the crowd.

    No stash space, terrible character customization, boring endgame, boring loot, boring uniques.
    The season 1 content is literally 1 hour of play time but they added boring grinding in between to make it feel longer. Lilith rule 34 is good tho.

    It’s almost like Diablo 4 developers are consciously fighting against everything that made classic Diablo fun. [Issue#262, p.80]

    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.

    The best Blizzard launch in a long time and a worthy game to be called Diablo.
