    As a D2 Veteran I was very disappointed with D3 at launch and I'm sad to say that I'm even more disappointed with D4 at launch than I was with D3.
    Like others have said, the story is amazing but I recommend that you save your money until Blizzard fixes the myriad of issues that D4 has.

    Extremely boring endgame gameplay. There's nothing to do. Weak itemization. The same thing can drop on every item. Terrible treatment of players. Constant balance changes ruining the gameplay. Instead of boosting weak builds, they nerf the strong ones. I wanted to give the game a second chance during the launch of the first season, but the servers are not working...

    To look at whether or not you will enjoy a game, you need to look at the fundamentals behind the game. Is it a game of love where the underlying metric is ensuring players enjoy playing the game? Does the company respect the player's time?

    To look at whether or not you will enjoy a game, you need to look at the fundamentals behind the game. Is it a game of love where the underlying metric is ensuring players enjoy playing the game? Does the company respect the player's time?

    In the case of Diablo 3, the fundamental metric that the team is targeting is "engagement".

    You might ask: "why is this bad? It's an ARPG, I want to be engaged."

    But the fact is, Blizzard doesn't care what type of engagement it is, they don't care if you're enjoying yourself, as long as you're playing, as long as you rack up the hours.

    And if you look at the game through that lens, every aspect, and every decision now makes sense.
    They will actively try and slow you down. They don't want you to burn through the (very little) end game content.
    They want to make sure you get as little reward as reasonable without you throwing up your hands and just outright quitting. It's a fine line, but they have the experience and data to straddle that line.

    And there lies the real fundamental problem with the game. And they have to do this, their shareholders DEMAND that they maximise profits, so they must treat the players like cows and milk us for as much of our "engagement" as possible, with as little content as possible.

    So, I'm giving it 2 points, because I actually really enjoyed playing through the Story the first time and I enjoyed the cutscenes, music etc. however that's very subjective.
    As for the game itself, it feels tedious, UIs are not good and need overhauls (for example more storage, easier tracking of side-quests and map stuff, only 20 items craftable at once?), at some point it can take

    As for the game itself, it feels tedious, UIs are not good and need overhauls (for example more storage, easier tracking of side-quests and map stuff, only 20 items craftable at once?), at some point it can take hours for one item of gear to drop that is better than what you are wearing and much much more.

    Especially I can not recommend the current state of Diablo IV as the priority of updates and fixes seems to be to nerf various parts of the game (like unnecessarily extending the "leave dungeon" portal from 3 seconds to 5, so now your character just stands there idling for 2 seconds), some fixes even coming in on the same day but big requested changes by the community are not on the priority list. Additionally, the patch before the first season revealed their poor view of what actually needs dev-work and leaves a sour taste for upcoming content, patches or even fixes (in Blizzard fashion likely more nerfs to slow down progress).

    I cant understand how a company can be so blindfolded on not hearing or reading any kind of feedback from the players, Blizzard is on a killing streak of all their games and it's not stoping, from Heroes of the storm, to Warcraft 3 Refunded, to damn Overwatch 2 and now they dig the grave even deeper with Diablo.

    Having actually had fun playing a game after a long time and being psyched up for this season, the latest patch takes away everything that made the game actually fun. Looks like I'm going to be doing something else before Blizzard takes the stick out of their ass. I feel like the community resonates hard on what I said.

    Had a blast with this game when released, then came the nerfs prior to S1. Feels like Blizz does this with every game they put out. Players enjoy the game and then devs nerf everything into the ground to make it more of a grind. If you are planning on purchasing this title, I'd wait until they either fix their mistakes or play something else and keep the $70.

    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.

    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 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.

    Thanks!

    At the release of the game it was going farily well. Characters felt powerful while you lv up.

It wasn't perfect but it had a great feeling if leveling up and feeling the power of your work in front of your eyes felt great to see . Latest patch absolutely destroyed the * fun* aspect of the game. The countless hours you put into the game and grinding for gear became useless after the patch. Characters are 50 to 60 percent weaker and it takes so much longer leveling up when you die so much faster now because of the decrease of power! I'm sad to say the developers literally told us fans that they want to force you to play other builds and will nerf your current build if they feel fit at any time. If you enjoy playing a game where your hard work gets deleted and you have to make changes every patch then this game is for you. Sadly the game drifted away for what fans wanted and now we have weaker characters with no timeline on when a fix is coming or even if one is coming at all. Expand

The game runs out of steam even before you reach max level, which is where a good ARPG should just be getting started.

    The recent patch was quite a let down as well. The heavy-handed nerfs are the least of the problems with the game right now actually. The itemization system is boring and unrewarding. Drops are not exciting at all. In fact, drops have zero value until you teleport back to town and sort through countless lines of text to determine if anything is of use. That's like a casino where, instead of getting a payout at slot machine when you hit, you instead get a token that you have to take to the main desk to find out if it's worth anything. It's not exciting.

    The game does get a few things right, however. The sound design is amazing. Playing through the campaign was enjoyable. The NPCs are well-acted, especially those you encounter through the main story. However, your character's voice lines are weird and out of place at times.

    I expect this game to get better over time with multiple patch cycles and a lot of development that, hopefully, will actually incorporate some of the feedback from the community. In its present state, however, there are much better games to spend your money on. If you're looking to sink some time into some great ARPGs, check out PoE (well worth the time it takes to learn its systems), Grim Dawn, or even Last Epoch, although that one needs quite a bit of time to cook as well.

    I'll keep it brief -
    -- Uninspired itemisation, for a game thats all about items they made them as boring as can be. A handful of unique items and then just completely randomised items with completely unimaginative affixes - %Damage to distant, %damage to close, % damage, %damage to people with red hair... etc.

    - As bad as the itemisation is the re-rolling/crafting is even worse

    - levels are so boring and insanely repetitive; End game is nightmare dungeon - there is a handful of dungeons and they are all identical with identical bosses/mobs and layout. They consist of the most mundane objectives (kill all mobs, collect and bring back stone, kill special mobs etc). There is zero fun here, its like all the lessons from running D3 and D2 for 40+ seasons were forgotten

    - One of the most fun things in diablo has always been doing new builds.... well guess what, they made it as hard as possible for you to do this. Paragons, not a bad concept but damn if you want to change a build you have to unclick 200+ allocations so you can try a different build - not fun on a mouse but eveb worse on controller. No unselect all, or save current selection.. Did they even test their own game? I am guessing not.

    Gameplay - so many cheese mechanics, I spent many hours playing hardcore in previous franchises. I don't even want to try here... The butcher is an example; yay you're pushing hard content go around a corner and you hear fresh meat... sure in softcore you have a laugh and in the end you will usually kill him but hardcore.. further the stun mechanics followed by stupid 1 shot stuff.. just not fun.

    I am confident that the game will get there, just I wish they talked to the teams of the previous games and started d4 where they left off.

Consumables disappear due to dying and/or disconnects, and some of the consumables take a great deal of time to prepare. Resistances, seem irrelevant, even consumable resistance elixirs and so on. In general, the grinding is just the same old same old, with very little extra than increasing enemy health and damage, and the stun effects - OMF it may just be the worse Ive had to endure in a Diablo game. I hope Blizzard goes out of business because they have become so big without giving a crap to the legacy of Diablo. The money is important, but the overall experience of this game is evident Blizzard no longer understands what it means to make a long standing game. D2 was by far the best. Expand

Mobs are neither difficult enough to make me feel challenged at any point on veteran difficulty (and this is my first Diablo game) but the mobs are also meaty enough that I don't feel like I'm powerful when I take them out, it's just a repetition of the same moves in the same order again and again. Everything I've read about this game hypes up the late game/post game content, but you have to spend tens of hours to actually get there and if this is how the game goes in the first 10 then I really don't trust that the endgame is actually fun even if it's better than the slog of the beginning.

    Every single time I've booted this game up I played for a shorter period than the last time. After spending $70 on this I'll probably give it at least one last shot, but if I had downloaded this from game pass it would have been uninstalled by my third gaming session.

    After playing the beta, i was expecting a reskin of Diablo 3, but it turned out to be way worse than D3.
    There are about a million issues with the game, and i'm not gonna spend a day to try to compile a list. But even with all of its problems, it would have been a relatively fun and enjoyable RPG, if it wasn't for the one major thing they completely butchered. The itemization system.

    For me, RPG's are about killing tons of mobs, and looking for rare and powerful loot. Diablo 4 is actually great at the first, killing tons of mobs. Even tho i only played sorc (as usual) i really liked its moment to moment combat. Sadly only a few viable builds, but i guess i wasnt hoping for much more.
    But when it comes to the 2nd more important part of being an RPG, Diablo 4 falls flat on its face. Even that's a massive understatement. I dislike the entire itemization system. From the aspects extraction/imprinting, to the power spread of dropped items being binarily(?) gated by the world tier difficulty. But even those issues are not the real problem for me.
    Here is where the game becomes truly ANNOYING to play:
    I clear a dungeon in about 2 minutes, during which i collect enough loot to completely fill up my entire inventory. Before moving onto the next dungeon, i have to go to town and unload (because obviously i want to improve my character). I spend another 2 minutes in town looking at each rare/legendary item i have gotten. An hour into this endgame loop, of staring at all the "damage to" and "damage from" and other uselessly **** affixes, and their massive ranges, my brain just turns off and it starts hurting. I despise the moment i have to go into town and stare into the void of affixes, it literally hurts. It all becomes a blur.
    It should be the opposite, picking up loot should be inducing dopamine, not making me want to close the game.
    Here is how this could easily be fixed:
    1. Remove uniques entirely from the game. Stop trying to farm nostalgy points from all the Diablo 2 veterans with the non-existent Shako drop rates. Thats really scummy. Not to mention how useless all the uniques i found are, compared to imprinting a powerful aspect into a rare.
    2. Cut legendary drop rates by half or even a quarter, and boost their affix range rolls to be better than the rares. For example: if a rare helmet could roll 4% - 10% CDR, make a legendary helmet CDR range roll 8% - 10%
    3. Reduce the value of rare items when sold to a vendor, down to 10% of what it is, and boost gold dropped by monsters 5-10x.
    Obviously this needs to be fine-tuned, but generally would make picking up legendary items an enjoyable event. Even the Aspect rewards from dungeons will become a viable option, because currently with the legendary drop rate, i had all my aspects collected in no time, without having to go and complete a specific dungeon to get any of them.
    Or here is another way to fix it:
    1. Let me set desired affixes/ranges for each item slot as a loot filter or something, and when something matching my wishlist drops, ping my minimap with a green beam or something.
    Just off the top of my head, there's probably many other ways of getting around the problem of staring at affixes 24/7 without getting an upgrade for days.
    If this tiny part of the itemization system is addressed (even tho its a band aid fix), this game would be 8/10 for me, but its currently unplayable... hence its a 3/10. I am however giving it 1 extra point, only because of the "Diablo 4/10" meme...

    It saddens me to have to rate a Diablo game so low, as i grew up with Diablo 2 and its still one of my most favorite games... But even with its beautifully crafted overworld and masterful soundscape, Diablo 4 is a massive dissapointment :(

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In terms of the amount of pleasure received from the game, it is not worth half of its cost. This is not a new word in the game industry, I did not see any bold decisions, reaching a new level. And this is not exactly what I would like or expect.
    Yes, the graphics are beautiful, music and cinematics are great, the plot is exciting, but it is not enough and everything else is no of interest. The atmosphere of the game is poorly conveyed, it is easily spoiled by the MMO component.
    I liked the references to Meshif and Deckard. But the little evil in the face of Andariel and Duriel was simply flushed down the toilet. It didn't look like a homage.
    Immersion at the beginning of the game was good, but soon I got the impression that I was thrown into a train running at full speed.

    Mix D2R with Knaak's books, ditch the MMO and possibly the isometric view (that would be very bold and could have a great effect), be as sensitive as possible about the atmosphere - you will succeed. But the game looks like a D3 upgrade.

    Videos with people playing D4, which are posted on the official YouTube channel, are very revealing, players show simulated emotions.
    Artificial hype. Boredom.

    I think, the capitalists have replaced creators, they are stifling fantasy, preventing artists from making real art.
    In their opinion, the player should not get much pleasure from the game, entertainment should be very portioned and mixed with a lot of boring content.

    The game itself seems fantastic on the surface and if you are only going to play it for the single player story and be (mostly) done with the game from there.

The loot is inconsistent and aggravating, things you expect to be rewarding are not. The grind is tedious, mostly due to the fact that combat is boring and monster density is non-existent. The one bright spot beyond the single player is also a glaring failure. It’s fair and valid to have total optimism that this game will improve by leaps and bounds over the next year. However, it begs the question, why are we waiting at all when most of the stuff this game is missing are things that was added to D3 because of player suggestions. It almost seems idiotic to not include some of the quality of life additions to D3 into this game from day 1. Expand

    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.
