    This game was already having issues BEFORE the recent patch but at least I could enjoy SOME aspects of the game. Now with this patch, it is clear how out of touch the D4 developers are this early in the life of this game.

    NERFS ACROSS THE BOARD TO EVERY CLASS AND ALL ACTIVITIES INCLUDING XP WHILE LEAVING GLARING BUGS AND LEAVING THE PISS POOR FOUNDATION THE WAY IT WAS IS NOT GOOD GAME

    They need to delay season 1, fix this disgusting mess they created, or undo it and release season 1 and rethink the development team's structure because this ain't it chief. I had a glimmer of hope for this game but of course, a Blizzard rolled in and killed everything in its wake.

    Disappointing after a few hours. Feels like they took a game engine and released it right after you have been able to slay a few monsters. **** loot, **** leveling, **** endgame content, **** powerlevel, **** mob density, **** trade, **** UI, **** balancing, **** patches. Worst ARPG release in ages.

    This patch is an awful attempt to balance the game by making everything less fun and take longer. And still no quality of life upgrades that all exist in the previous game, D3. Were no lessons learned?

    You basically take everything that players are asking for, put it in a nice list, and then throw it all in the trash and do the complete opposite. You just don't listen. Don't care. You have our money and we got a broken, unbalanced, messed up game. I play a sorc too, and you just keep defiling it further.

You have our money and we got a broken, unbalanced, messed up game. I play a sorc too, and you just keep defiling it further.

    Good:
    -Nice graphics, proper aesthetic.

    Bad:
    -Every zone is copy/pasted, and looks EXACTLY the same. You NEVER feel like you're anywhere different.
    -Every town looks exactly the same.
    -Every town has a 50-mile radius around it, where you cant run with the crap horse until you're outside of said radius.
    -Game is full of bugs. Endless endless bugs.
    -Game has major memory leak that people have reported since the first beta, and is still not fixed.
    -Game has persistent sound-bug issue where the voiceover will become bugged with echos and weird dungeon effects applied to dialog, and then never goes away. Not with a reinstall, or anything. Reporting it for months gets no reponse, either.
    -Characters are unbalanced beyond words. Tuning them results in ruining them, versus improving them.
    -Forced MMO & forced online only play, but then has zero MMO features and nothing of convenience for your forced-experience. You can't even chat with the world, outside of Trade, and they STILL HAVENT ADDED A GLOBAL CHAT. As if this is so unbelievably difficult.
    -QoL and conveniences from past games have been just, completely left out of this one.
    -Zoom on character is so uncomfortably close it makes you feel weird, and you refuse to add option to zoom out further. It's obvious it can be done, because it's done on horse, and for world bosses, or higher peaks in land. Will you ever address it? Nope.
    -What year does it need to be when we are able to party with more than just 4 people like this is a LAN party or pure-console game? I play on PC. In diablo 2, I could have 8 people in a group. This is so utterly annoying and old.
    -No room in stash, and can only buy 4 stash tabs. You know perfectly well adding the ability to purchase more is as easy as your ability to nerf %'s on a spreadsheet that controls the game. Just stop.
    -Can't simply just 1v1 your friend if you want, must go to FoH and then risk others coming in and ruining your dueling and trolling, and since you can't request to duel outside of FoH.... this is just rudimentary.
    -Mount is practically unusable, between having to stop every 10 seconds to climb a cliff, it can barely walk 1 foot forward without hitting every single solitary piece of terrain that there is.
    -Every single dungeon is a copy/paste of another. All of these dungeons, yet I haven't been in a single one that has felt different from the next. They literally took the shell of one, and then made it "icy", then copy/pasted it, and made it not icy, then copy/pasted it, and switched the pathways around. It's pathetic.
    -If you want any actual updates you're forced to follow these clowns personal accounts on Twitter. So if you want game updates you gotta see PezRadar shirtless and pictures/stories about his "gains journey", and whatever else, instead of actually using or communicating on the forums where everybody is, asking for some acknowledgment. If they don't like your comment on twitter, they block you. Rob Ferguson is the worst. He's 80 years old, and takes everything personally. Has no idea what this generation of gamers wants, he's just another slob like Jay Wilson, telling people what they want because "he knows" and we dont.
    -Because they have no end game, or anything else actually fun in the game to do, they made leveling and progression even slower and more miserable, then proceeded to gatekeep the world tiers. Why? No reason, other than to just do the exact opposite of majority-ask and make it more miserable. You know, cause helping friends level up so you can play together is so blasphemous.
    -Did I mention the items/itemization is absolutely and utterly horrendous? It's so bad. It's so stupid. 500 useless dumb buckets of things and then the comparison thing, don't even get me started. It feels like a special-education team came up with some of these concepts.
    -Item drops: they're trash. They're all trash. And, if you're a cold sorc and you want gear for.... a cold sorc... you aren't getting it. You're getting 90% gear for fire/light. So you literally find the opposite of your build, 90% of the time. It's on purpose too. Odds don't work that terribly.

    Games are supposed to bring joy, and fun. The only thing this game does is genuinely infuriate me while playing it, and the experience is miserable. I'm not sure how I even lasted this long. But I feel absolutely zero joy from this game. It feels like a job, not a break *from* my job. Everything's a copy/paste with minor alterations, including the cosmetics. LOL, explain why the sorc has FOUR of the same exact helmets with small differences like a string, or a barely noticeable color change?

    Bravo blizzard.. as usual.

    Great launch, was fun to play until they blew everything up. Now it's a boring grind that takes much longer to achieve anything. Instead of raising everything to a similar level, they decided to cut it to the bone. With that they cut out the fun and left the boring plain parts.

    The game is rather repetitive and lacks depth. It was sold as a $70 experience, plus there is a recurring cost with seasons. I think the game is hardly worth the cost. The only place where the game excels is in the graphics department, but then I'd rather spend $80 on subscribing to a streaming service or buying a couple of 4k blurays. I regret buying it — would recommend others pass.

    Diablo 4 already is the most lonesome arpg game I have played in a while.
    My friends have too big a level gap so you can't do nightmare dungeons together.

    so now in a half baked unfinished game, you also do very little damage, along with dying much more quickly, making the experience even slower, more sluggish and grindy

    i cannot believe this is how a billion dollar company treats their games and players, if there was a score lower than 0, i would give it

    its unreal how 1 patch completely destroyed all good will and any hype for the new season, everyone in general were still excited at the prospect of the new season, especially because, for many it would be their first arpg season, but now most of the sentiment around this game is to uninstall and never buy any games from this company in the future

    Originally when diablo4 came out, I thought the game was rushed, but I still had hopes as I really loved playing D3 and I figured they'd learn from their mistakes and add the good things.

    Since launch we have not had integral features that D3 has had for over a decade:

    IE: Seeing what enchantment's are available per items at the enchantress, a LEADERBOARD, working resistances, build diversity, yes there were "best builds" but all builds were viable to an extent.
    This has then changed into a game that has little no no build diversity - only one or two builds per class which mainly spam one button is the best option available. Not near the skill customization like in D3 with changing damage types of each ability, etc.

    Now today they release the awful notes that butcher every classes damage - losing Vuln and crit would have been understandable - but then they take away Cool down reduction too.

    As a Sorc main, who loved the ice shards machine gun build - the build is basically destroyed, no survivability as it was due to broken resistances - now they take away roughly 60% of people's damage and I can't do the same NMD's I could do with ease two days ago.

    I was contemplating playing another class on the new season to try something new, but we all got butchered and nerfed.

    I uninstalled. I'm done. they need to fix everything they've ruined or I'm not coming back.

    Season 1 has no actual content, just changed values on skills and gear, new boss, bunch of new aspects. If next seasons will be same, then this will become same as Diablo 3, that was released 11 years ago, and after so many seasons, all new "content" was necromancer class added.

    All you could do in Diablo 3 for years was nothing but rifts. Imagine same thing in PoE, if GGG would add maps, and stop adding any content after that, like breach, abyss, harvest, delve and so on.

    Currently i see that Diablo 4 goes the same way as Diablo 3, no actual content added in new seasons, just "balance", bunch of new aspects and thats it.

    Hope to see more effort put into season 2, otherwise, its not worth 70-90$, more like 20$ at most.

    Inventory management is horrendous with not enough slots to make it through a single dungeon run without having to portal back to town. Gems could consume nearly 50% of your inventory and would take up as much space as a 2h weapon.
    The endgame is so boring with lack of content and lack of any activity that makes you feel like it's an enjoyable experience, and the itemization leaves you feeling like you are just wasting time. The world tier system was a good addition, but then they put artificial levels on when you could jump up to the next tier while simultaneously slowing down the leveling system making it even more slow and boring.
    You are literally expected to run the same boring content over and over without any expectation of rewarding loot that is anything but marginally better at best. Even the higher skilled players are forced to grind an abundance of low challenge content ad nauseum just to check a level box to get back to more challenging content.
    The developers have gone out of their way to suck what limited fun was in the game while introducing the new season just to have everyone have to start back over from scratch for a more painful and less fulfilling experience. I highly recommend people sit this game out if you haven't purchased it yet until the developers start playing their own game to see how awful it is and start making real quality of life improvements. It is all but unplayable in its current form unless you enjoy repetitive game play that is a huge step back from Diablo 3.

    Started off with potential. Consumers gave them a pass on the early and still ongoing performance issues. However, with so many poor balance passes and strange decisions it's hard to recommend any time investment into this release.

    If you played ARPG's for a while now, you will be able to identify all "builds" in 20 - 30 minutes.
    And you will never feel like you made this beast of a character like you can in POE, Last Epoch.
    With best possible gear it feels the same as with mediocre gear. Slow and repetitive.

    Before the game released, blizzard said that scrolls of escape was the compromise for not allowing logout macros and that scrolls of escape will be automatically used in the event of a disconnect. On game release this was not the case and people were dying left and right to game crashes, power outages, internet disconnects, bugs, and even CASH SHOP UPDATES. Then the devs come out and say that scrolls of escape weren't working as intended and should be teleporting players out on game crash or disconnect and that it will be fixed...in Season 2. Really blizzard? This is literally a few lines of code to fix this but you have to wait 4-6 months before you can fix such a game breaking issue?

    Then they decided that altar of liliths and map completion would become account wide. Great decision imo. Only for some reason we have to log onto the character that completed the altars and finished the map in order to "populate" the rest of the account? Again, there are two achievements associated with each respective feat. You couldn't write a few lines of code to do that automatically? On top of that, since you have to LOG INTO THE CHARACTER in order for it to populate to your account like we're playing some DOS game in 1992, people on hardcore that have characters that completed all the altars and map only to die to a CASH SHOP UPDATE....will now have to redo both even though they have both achievements unlocked on their account..

    The campaign is a weak adventure upheld by lore and aspirations created by a team more than 20 years ago. They had everything handed to them on a plate, instead, we got a fairy tale campaign without the gritty, destructive aspects of the true prime evils. We got an obvious expansion arc in the form of Mephisto the puppy, and Lilith, who shone in the cinematics but failed in every other aspect.

    D2 LOD exploded a man with tentacles for merely challenging Baal, now, our hero doesn't even feel phased in the presence of the prime evil effigies.

    Funnily enough, the campaign was the strong point of Diablo IV. The loot system is not rewarding, there is no identity to the loot system, stat systems are confusing and character development is pinned against bloated and unfinished paragon systems.

    I find it even more astonishing that Vicarious Visions, a company known for its remasters had to come to the rescue and prop up the already gouged development team. I suspect that they were handed a dead carcass of a D4 MMO and then tasked with salving it into a modern ARPG.

    35 hours is all I managed, I had to force myself to reach level 70 on my necromancer, desperately using every ounce of nostalgia to force-feed this junk into my fingertips.

    No wonder Blizzard, sorry, ACTIVISION decided to axe TCP/IP support for D2R. It's evident that D4 wouldn't stand a chance against a modded D2R fan base.

    The combat feels good and the leveling doesn’t feel too slow. The classes feel different enough. One thing Blizzard still seems to have with the right team and amount of time, IS good game feel. The sounds and the visuals are satisfying and the builds don’t feel one dimensional as Diablo 3 did and you actually can have versatile subtypes within each class like how a druid can build to focus on being a werebear tank, a wind/lightning mage, an animal whisperer, or a combination of it all. Similar with other classes too how sorcerers can have different elemental specializations and mix and match with beautiful and bright effects and punchy sounds.

    The story seems to be one of those you either love it or you hate it.

    It’s also a better sequel to Diablo 3 than Overwatch 2 was to Overwatch 1(which blizzard released as basically the same game lol).

    Diablo IV does feel different enough and strikes a good combination of simple and complex.

    And it’s an ARPG. You play it for the fun explosions and effects and getting better and better loot which this satisfies pretty well.

    Sadly, as of launch, there isn’t MUCH to do in the endgame when you hit the later/max levels, but they have plans for seasons and expansions to add more. The leveling process and the classes themselves are fun though and you’ll get a ton of enjoyment out of it.

    Edit: As of the Season 1 patch I can’t in good conscience recommend this game anymore. Anything that was bad is doubled down and anything that was remotely fun is nerfed. Leveling was slowed down, classes already gutted, itemization not addressed, endgame activities heavily nerfed.

    Maybe I’ll edit this if they fix it but maybe I won’t bother like they don’t seem to bother with this game.

All they want is to make as much people play as long as possible, so they put up useless barriers to keep players from reaching the real endgame content (which is already really scarce). They try to do this by gatekeeping and nerfing everything that was still kind of viable. Next Friday they might try to address some of these insane S1 changes but for me it is too late.

    The development team have managed to utterly destroy what was a solid foundation for a great game, by focusing on season 1 (which no one really wants) and just blatantly ignoring all the current issues with the current state of the game.

After the patch announcement I have lost all hope with the Dev team . I don't understand why a developer would take all the user improvements made in D3 to enhance the user experience such as storage space, paragon resets, pets, etc.. and then decide to remove all of these when developing D4. why not use d3 features as a starting point!

    The newest patch is really poor. They've nerfed all the most fun stuff while making it take so much longer to access some of the best parts of the game. Helltides used to be a fun way of getting valuable gear, but now it's an absolute slog and will have you dying due to the most recent nerfs across the board. Pretty awful way to improve the user experience. Take it back!

    There's a fair bit to like about Diablo IV — best-in-class sound design, intriguing character classes, fantastic graphics and occasionally addictive gameplay all feel like the series in its prime. However, even the best parts are let down by an undercurrent of frustrating design choices: the cynical inclusion of a Battle Pass, a bloated open world, repetitive mission structure and progression that too often feels meaningless cast a long shadow that let the latest Diablo title down. Future Seasons may refine what's here, but many of its issues sadly feel baked into the core experience. All but the most die-hard fans may wish to wait for a substantial sale on this one.

    The visuals are probably what excited me the most. The way the game looks and the atmosphere makes me feel like I'm playing the old Diablo again. On steroids and on a quadruple screen TV, but the feeling is still there. [Issue#328]

    Diablo is back, and taking no prisoners. The top-quality, lengthy campaign will be enough for some, while the endgame should prove a welcome obsession for others. [Issue#30, p.84]
