Have been playing this game since early access in June via deluxe. Had fun until reaching endgame content pre-season, became very repetitive without reward after a certain point. Season one has also been a disappointment, with the same repetitive grind content coupled with a new mechanic that rarely delivers anything exhilarating. So many patches, so many balances and fixes, and my game still crashes once or twice per session. If a good build becomes to powerful, its “balanced,” why try new builds to begin with when they could possibly be nuked. Slogging through even the most basic mobs now is a massive chore because damage and cool down have been significantly reduced.

    Such a let down for $80, such a bummer of a game. Simply put, buyer beware, do some research before purchasing. I really wanted to like eey    … Expand

    what you need to fix
    -always online needs to go away. give us offline single player
    -enemy scaling to our level ruins the fun. get rid of it
    -servers are garbage. constant lag and rubber banding
    -make all items tradeable!!!! we need a loot economy! give us a trading post

    long story short diablo 4 is a shiny turd with beautifull graphics hiding a shallow boring game that doesn't deserve to be part of the diablo franchise, diablo 3 was better!

    ps; do NOT buy the ultimate version. 150$ gives you absolutely nothing of true value. save your money and skip diablo 4 altogether until very deep sale. once you beat the campaign and reach lvl 50 the game has nothing else to offer    … Expand

    Worst game ever. I've never seen such a lack of communication between developers and users. It's obvious they've never played a game. The creators of the game enjoy causing discomfort and discomfort to users. They're all sadists.

    So I have played this game on both Ethernal and Seasonal Realms to 100 on arguably one of the best classes so far - rogue. I killed Uber Lilith and did high Tier (not 100 yet) but 80+ dungeons. I did all the crafting, helltides, open world, campaign, renown farm and so on that is in the game before forming my opinion.

    Good things about the game: - In-game Music - Graphics/Visuals    So I have played this game on both Ethernal and Seasonal Realms to 100 on arguably one of the best classes so far - rogue. I killed Uber Lilith and did high Tier (not 100 yet) but 80+ dungeons. I did all the crafting, helltides, open world, campaign, renown farm and so on that is in the game before forming my opinion.

    Good things about the game:
    - In-game Music
    - Graphics/Visuals bring a new generation, but others are catching up
    - Number of buttons reduction (i.e. less potions etc.)
    and that is it.

    Bad Things is pretty much everything else. Starting with the most important the dev team is clearly corporate job people who blindly follow policies and metrics with zero novel ideas about the game. That is why they were able to destroy whatever was somewhat OK in the game before Season 1 with the crazy patch coming out. For example D4 is supposed and can work as a fairly casual game with console support where people can enjoy for a few hours a day ... and you go and nerf XP to the ground so that it takes forever to level?! Makes no logical sense. Now they backtracking with monster density improvements and etc., which will probably bring a whole other set of issues on the technical front.

    In any case looking at the core loop gameplay before the patch there was a bit more variety with the Helltide and we all had to do the Campaign, renown etc. Now it is literally Just Nightmare dungeons (same 6-8 ones as the others are horrible) on repeat. Why kill Helltide with the patch again -> makes no sense as game lacks content anyhow?

    Still, even if the game boils down to just repeating the same NM dungeons over and over a hardcore ARPG player like me can handle that. However, something destroys the fun out of this completely --- itemization and loot. Remember this game has super limited stash space where you actually have a very hard time playing with more than 2 different characters (as most stash is shared). But that aside there is an extraordinary amount of useless loot dropping that you have to vendor. However, since there is no loot filter one actually has to read through all of it and check the affixes to make sure it is in fact trash. So after EVERY dungeon, you spend about the same amount or half of it (if you are fast) reading and vendoring. And you have to be selective as remember ... the stash space. This just destroys all flow and fun of the game to the point where stuff drops and I'm not wondering if its something cool, but weather or not it is worth picking it up and reading with the super high chance it will be trash to vendor. Personally that is the main reason I also quit the game and rate it as 0/10 given that 30-50% of my gametime is devoted not to slaying monsters and playing the game, but inventory, stash and item management. Furthermore, what the devs did making ALL other content irrelevant with that patch including outside world and world bosses and helltides just shows me that they have zero idea about the direction and improvement of the game so I'm really not at all positive for the future.

    Lastly a score is also related to what the competition is offering and PoE plus Last Epoch and others are just delivering. With PoE 2 comming maybe next year and developments such as when you disconnect you come back in the same world state before, compared to Blizz devs not capable to provide a loot filter just gives me no confidence in the future of this game. Of course this is a personal opinion, but fun is really NOT the name of the game for Diablo 4 currently and in the foreseeable future.    … Expand

    We will not be developing an endgame, we will just nerf the classes and reduce the experience gained. And we will also sell the battle pass without confirmation.
    Oh yes, we will also change the balance in each patch.
    It's not an AAA game, it's a beta test for 70 bucks.
    All I can say is "Blizzard, play this **** yourself" :)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have been a huge fan of the Diablo series for 25 years now. I had heard something about Blizzard getting on shaky ground, but I didn't pay much attention to it as I don't have a lot of time to be an active part of the gaming community. When I saw the offer to purchase the game, it brought about sentimental feelings that it would be a worthy continuation of the second installment, although I found the price to be a bit steep, especially considering the main competitor is a free-to-play game (PoE).

    The visual aspect is of high quality, and the atmosphere is on point with great animations, etc. However, the game design feels raw, the balance is not great, and the endgame content is quite weak. It seems like the developers were rushed into releasing the game, and it ended up being unfinished. The next patch only made optimizations worse and disrupted the progression and balance. The seasonal system and battle passes are just nonsense; it's evident that the managers at Activision Blizzard are simply greedy people who sacrificed creativity for profit. This approach will only alienate the remaining loyal audience. Perhaps, this is the fate of large corporations - to become dull garbage towards the end of their life cycle.    … Expand

    Can't really even give it a decent review. After patch bombs and negative reviews on the current date of 8/8/2023 the game is still in shambles without any improvements.

    - lots of bugs still blocking progression, day 1 quest bug that is still not fixed.
    - unbalanced leveling experience with several progression walls (yes, several, not 1 or 2).
    - 80 to 10 frame drops out of nowhere with latest drivers (not running on the best video card tbh but if it can produce a steadily 60-80 for at least 80% of the time, the drops are irregularities)
    - features feel outdated, the grinding game is too strong and no incentive to come back
    - no point in continuing because there are too many things wrong with the game

    Worst bit is that after a month of break away from the game to give it time to stop disappointing it hasn't made much progress. 1 month of no real tangible improvement in a 2 mo old game, feels abandoned by devs only to have leads come up on stage to promise things.

It kind of quickly loses out for not having much useful to do, no real improvements in gear, everything feeling like a drag, and I say that as a Diablo2 enjoyer who enjoys doing the same thing over and over and over.

    And that's not to mention how broken a lot of things are in general, like resistances not even working? Several design issues that don't seem to get an improvement. Control issues for PC, and from what I hear also control issues for console. Plus a weird chatwheel which might make sense on console, but why is it in a PC-game where I should be able to bind any of my keyboard keys? The loot and crafting system and progressing to become stronger, does not feel like its really working or making an impact, it becomes a drag to continue.

    I'm not too happy losing my HC barb due to the game silently disconnecting me, where everything kept on playing almost entirely as normal, and when you realize something is slightly off, its already too late and you're dead. I'm used to HC, used to losing characters to stupid things, in PoE I've at some point had lag issues killing off a character, but at least there you notice the lag, and decide to push on anyway, and fail. I did not however decrease my score over this, its just another thing showing how broken things are... Actually kind of happy my char died so I have a reason not to play this game.

    A Disastrous Disappointment: Diablo 4 Fails Gamers on Every Level

    I recently made the grave mistake of shelling out a jaw-dropping $130 for Diablo 4, expecting a gaming experience that would be worth its weight in gold. What I got instead was an absolute disaster that left me questioning the sanity of the developers and the sanity of anyone who actually enjoys this travesty. Let's    A Disastrous Disappointment: Diablo 4 Fails Gamers on Every Level

    I recently made the grave mistake of shelling out a jaw-dropping $130 for Diablo 4, expecting a gaming experience that would be worth its weight in gold. What I got instead was an absolute disaster that left me questioning the sanity of the developers and the sanity of anyone who actually enjoys this travesty.

    Let's start with the most glaring issue: the lack of WASD support. In an era where gaming has evolved to cater to various player preferences and abilities, Diablo 4 has decided to regress back to the Stone Age. Who on Earth thought that denying players the basic freedom of using WASD controls was a good idea? Apparently, the developers are either blissfully unaware of the gaming landscape or simply sadistic, reveling in the suffering of players with arthritis, carpal tunnel, or any other disability that makes traditional controls difficult.

    But oh, don't worry, because apparently having control options isn't supposed to translate to good gameplay. No, according to the masterminds behind Diablo 4, we're all just supposed to adapt to their archaic control scheme and be grateful for the privilege of enduring their nonsensical design choices. Because who needs player accessibility and comfort when you can frustrate your audience to the point of tears?

    And let's not even get started on the price tag. $130 for a game that's stuck in the past, not even bothering to acknowledge the basic standards of user-friendly controls? It's as if the developers are actively trying to rob players blind while simultaneously flipping them the middle finger. Congratulations, Blizzard, you've managed to outdo yourselves in creating a product that redefines the meaning of buyer's remorse.

    In conclusion, Diablo 4 is a catastrophic failure on every conceivable level. Its lack of WASD support is a slap in the face to gamers with disabilities, and the notion that control options are somehow irrelevant to good gameplay is mind-bogglingly absurd. Save your hard-earned money and precious time for a game that actually respects its players and embraces modern gaming conventions. Diablo 4 is a prime example of how not to make a game, and I can only hope that the developers come to their senses before inflicting more misery upon unsuspecting players.    … Expand

    Imagine former Diablos, take out all awesome endgame collectibles and put them behind a store pay wall. I could rant about the nonexistent endgame the whole day, but the fact that there a no emotes, death shrines, animated weapons and skins to be unlocked for free at all, there is just absolutely nothing to keep playing for. Invest your time and money in literally anything else.

    Up to level 50 the game was very good but then there is no more interest. Season 1 is catastrophic. Gifts are uninteresting. The points earned in the season will not be enough to buy the future extension, it will be necessary to pay in real money. It is total night.

    Diablo IV started as an unnecessarily grindy version of Diablo 3 with the art style of Diablo 2 and barely anything to do at endgame. In response to player complaints, Blizzard fixed none of the issues raised, made the game even grindier for no reason, and nerfed all the fun stuff players found into the ground.

    Check the difference between the 'critics" and the community, I think we can safely assume the mainstream reviews were bought off, too afraid to critic Blizz or lose future review access. The game is a shallow, pointless and dull experience. It's junk. I regret wasting money on it.

    Blizzard really pulled a bait and switch on me with this one, these crafty little goblins. They released the game in a state where the casual andy's and reviewers enjoy it and then pull a patch in season 1 to make the game grindier for more player retention. It's a dirty little trick and I'm really upset that it's too late to get my money back after they robbed me.

It's a dirty little trick and I'm really upset that it's too late to get my money back after they robbed me. They did the same thing to me with Overwatch 1, I payed full price for a game I loved only to have it completely destroyed and remade into Overwatch 2 which I absolutely hate. This company has really gone to crap. I remember being 8 years old and loving Blizzard and daydreaming about all of the amazing games they could make in the future with better technology. Yet I keep falling for their dirty tricks every time.. Tomorrow they'll stay Starcraft 3!! And then 8 year old loses his mind and becomes a little boy again and has to play it and get his hands on it... I need to grow up man, I can't let this company does this to me anymore. Hopefully I'll learn my lesson this time...… Expand

    At launch, I would've given Diablo 4 an 8, possibly even a 9. The game wasn't perfect, but it was thoroughly enjoyable, at least throughout the campaign, and for a while after.

Patch 1.1.0a happened, though, and as a result I'm actually giving the first zero I've ever given in any review on any site. Without fixing anything the community considered a problem, the patch gutted player damage output and survivability, across the board. Nerfs happen, we all know that. In this instance, however, there's a strong case to be made that they simply felt players were getting too far too fast, and that crippling them would further sales of their season pass tier skips. I've never seen a worse patch, much less a worse first major patch, and unless Blizzard reverses course, I'm done with the game. Right now, I just feel like a sucker for imagining they'd actually done something right.… Expand

    Blizzard did it again. All you will get buying this game is a waste of your time and very expensive piece of trash

    Honestly, the game was 6 out of 10 when it came out! I even gave 9/10 for the art work/graphic/fluidity/cinematic but with the 1.1 NERF PATCH, it's a 2 out of 10. How can you reduce CDR by 30%? You want my barb to wait in a corner, so my shouts get ready for the next mob pack? C'mon Blizzard, or should I say Activision or maybe, Microsoft?

    The game is so very poorly designed and buggy. A lot of connection issues, horse bugged cant sprint outside of town, dev admitted that resis doesnt work and then proceed to add it to the mod pool for shield, very limited stash tab in a freakin looter arpg

    For patch 1.1. They want to nerf everything to the ground? Review bombing is what they will get!

    The most un-fun ARPG in existance.Low mob density because their awful servers can handle more, and even then continue to lag out constantly. Some classes speed clearing endgame while others can barely handle enemies of the same level. Awful and restricitive class balance and design. Everyone should had known better after they canceled OW2. Blizzard is long gone.

    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]
