    Another crap Diablo game. Sad that blizz keeps hiring devs and directors that have no idea what they’re doing. They think it’s ok to have their customers be beta testers for a month instead of hiring their own beta testers. Fu blizz

    Feels a little soulless, the opening environment is large but kind of empty. Forced online connection, you can't launch or play otherwise. You can play solo yes but it doesn't stop you from sharing the major areas with other players. Regardless if you're paying for a console network subscription. It wouldn't be THAT bad if it weren't for the rubber banding and lag, even on gigabitFeels a little soulless, the opening environment is large but kind of empty.

Regardless if you're paying for a console network subscription. It wouldn't be THAT bad if it weren't for the rubber banding and lag, even on gigabit Internet. I've played about 4 hours. I'm going to put it down and hope for a patch or better stability. Buyer beware I suppose. I'm definitely disappointed. Expand

    There is a special place in hell for developers making single player games with constant requirement of internet access. Stuck in “queue” to login on Saturday night instead of enjoying the game. What a mess!

    Graphics is quite ugly, which is a disappointment. Overall gameplay is quite enjoyable, when the game logs in.

It is so bad, that’s it’s either intentional, or some kind of an April Fools joke. Coming from call of duty, I’ve seen my fair share of horrible Dev decisions, but I have never in my life, across any game seen an epic fail this bad. It’s almost like they intentionally killed their own game, as some sort of slap in the face to their own community. None of it makes any sense, and it appears that I’m headed back to some other games for the foreseeable future, as this game appears to have ended itself before the first season even started. What a compete and total slap in the face and waste of time. I really do feel bad for the OG Diablo community and fans. This was like watching the titanic sink while the captain set it on fire. What an absolutely epic fail. Expand

I leveled a Druid to 100 and a rogue to 87 or something close, and was looking forward to doing a barbarian or a sorc during the season. But now, I don’t even want to touch sorc and the overall changes make me not even the slightest excited to play barb. The new uniques are literally a joke, and it is pretty disrespectful that Blizzard would throw something like this out to the fans after such a successful launch (you’re welcome blizz) Expand

    Don't be fooled. Blizzard doesn't exist anymore. This is just a zombie brand designed to exploit nostalgia with the IP they bought so they can have your money. If you want to find a game made by someone who wants you to have fun, look elsewhere.

    For once Blizzard, listen to your player base. You are going to start losing revenues if you don’t. I was going to buy the season 1 battle pass, but not now, and I won’t spend another dime until you fix the game. Itemization, social aspect, making builds more powerful. Everyone shouldn’t be running the same thing!! Bizarre that they can’t see these issues, or maybe they just do not care.

    As I look at my sorceress, I can't help but feel a sense of frustration creeping in. She was already facing challenges and struggling to remain relevant in the game. And now, with the recent update, she's been nerfed even further! It's disheartening to witness her power and effectiveness diminish before my eyes. I find myself wondering, why must they do this? Why make her almost useless?

    This game just keeps getting less and less fun with each patch. This most recent patch was clearly meant to force players off of the eternal realm as everything is "balanced" around the seasonal buffs. Seasonal play should not be mandatory.

    Very bad patch which makes everything worse (too many nerfs). Unbalanced characters (eg bad barb leveling and endgame). You get instantly killed sometimes (one shot) while killing normally all mobs without any problems. Playing this game does not make fun. It is frustrating and boring in the endgame.

I thought the foundation for something great was there and I was incredibly excited. As I reached level 80 with multiple characters I thought end game was bland and boring. That's ok though, foundation was there.. Only for the patches to be released making the game worse and even more tedious.. Then Season 1 came, lackluster. I was bored after 1 gameplay session and have not gone back.

    Why haven't I learned? Why did I still trust blizzard? I don't know. Nostalgia? I don't know.. But I'll revisit the game in a few years and maybe it'll be alright.. But by then I'll also have PoE 2..

    What's crazy is I dropped PoE 1 for Diablo 4 thinking it was better. Gave it an honest shot and in the beginning I really did think it was better.

    Boy was I wrong.

    No end game, few and boring bosses, camera zoom, build variety, balancing, power creep, etc. Everything in previous negative reviews I agree with.

    - Can't track sidequests, crashing all over the place
    - Resists just don't work, leaving armor and health your only options
    - Their end game is pointless; Diablo games are supposed to reward you for increased risk. This version doesn't. Gear drops are based off your character level and not the dungeon level. This means running a 40 minute dungeon isn't as valuable as running 4 x 10 min dungeons. It's not supposed to be this way. We want to enjoy the challenge and be rewarded for it.
    - The story line is short and dumb.
    - Nearly every aspect of this game has some unpolished wonkiness, for instance there's no Diablo IV graphic on my OS tool bar. I don't want to buy a AAA game and see a white piece of paper as the game icon. Especially when the game crashes as much as this one.
    - The season play doesn't include new content. Season play is supposed to be a NEW season each time you play it, not the same old content that's been done before on repeat.

    While in Diablo you spend a lot of time looking at new gear, this new version tipped the balanced. You spend too much time looking at gear now with all these stupid sub divided stats. Leaving gems in to take up inventory space just to have something to fix that the community will be happy about it is an obvious play and doesn't make up for the half finished nature of the game. This isn't a Blizzard Diablo, which always has something innovative even if it doesn't work you need to try. This is a washed out version that actually makes the game crappier. Booooooo go back to mobile games Blizzard you're embarrassing yourself.

    I should not have to hear on 'twitter' that Barbarians are just outright NOT able to use aspects THAT ARE ON THEIR GEAR. We should not be running around for DAYS with turned off Aspects and have NO word about why we suck all of the sudden.
    Druids should NOT have to fear getting a Barbarian Unique when it drops. if this is not a mechanic shared by all classes it should NOT exist for them, let alone takes DAYS to fix.
    I should not 'think' pushing Nightmare Sigils would give greater rewards. They do not! You can kill chaff and still get the same loot in world IV. The hardcores should NOT have had to test this for us, nor should this EVER be an issue.
    Classes should not be outright nerfed, without getting buffs to other specializations in unison. (Nerfing Whirl WInd but leaving Double Swing as a peice of trash.)
    Lilith and Mephisto are interesting for sure, but our allies (and even our own characters) are forgettable if not outright incompetent. Ex: A character blaming another for losing an important item.. when the character placing blame SHOWED THE ITEM OFF and it was taken.

    Its the same old thing with Blizzard. The game has some real promise, but as they always have recently the company likes to tell half truths, omit details, and likes to fluff up information with corpo speak that says NOTHING.

    I will say, the sound team / art team / animation team nailed it! Though, they said it was old art that inspired them.. but.. I see a WHOLE lot of Warhammer inspiration here. Which they really enjoy ripping from without giving credit. (Looking at you Frostmourne, Gorhowl.) I wish they would rip off less crappy protagonists.

    Fire the 'good guy' writers. Its been two games and only ONE good character. (Covetous Shen, the rest are ruined by Diablo 3.)
    Fire whoever decided auto attacks (melee) should suck unless you are a Sorcerer. (Even still.)
    Fire whoever thought Sorcerers don't get some Gandalf robes.. and fire them again for not letting them equip Gandalf swords. To much fancy silk, not enough homeless nerd.

    This is my last purchase from Blizzard. The good they bring always comes with SO much incompetence. Not to mention, I hate those who speak like they are 'reasonable' when you can see the slime leaking down their flesh.

    The quality of life in this game is unacceptable. Stash management, search function, aspect storage, map search functions (forced to use third party websites) storage for everything is so dated and will likely be trickle-fed as a fix to the problem they created.

    Be prepared to have an alright time once you finish the game. If you're looking for anything past the campaign, it's not there. The game is an absolute husk of an arpg, It's astonishing the lack of content available. Not only that, the incentives for higher tier Nightmare Dungeon (The supposed endgame) is the the exact same as a regular dungeon..... harder content should reward better xp and loot...

    Mounting in this game feels like your horse is reattaching itself to a rubber band on the ground. It's extremely buggy, feels terrible, and there's impassible barricades around the map which force you to dismount for nothing.

    The skill/paragon trees are the most basic cookie cutter trash you'll ever see in any arpg. You are pigeon-holed into a build, forced, you're at a massive disadvantage if you "want to play how you want to play" as they originally advertised.

    Grinding renown/levels is extremely tedious with the lack of post campaign content. The constant monster density nerfs, dungeon nerfs, build nerfs, lack of changes, bugs in classes, tons of abilities not being viable in any sort of late-ish endgame is so half-baked.

    Overall the game is a spit in the face to Diablo fans, extremely half-baked for the price, teeming with bugs and a lack of quality of life any 2023 arpg should have.

    Diablo 4 is a travesty.

    Good story, decent character customization. All of this is completely overshadowed by the lack of procedurally generated content and the intrusive level scaling. May as well remove levels from the game. This is a copy of the PC version but with worse controls. Overall I honestly think this is just a cash grab.

    This game is fun but the game is still practically unplayable on the PS5. Rubberbanding and lag is horrible right now. Blizzard needs to fix this or make the game available offline. If they do I would change the rating to a 9/10

    This game is just okay. The itemization is terrible, and worse than previous iterations of diablo. The graphics and artwork are pretty good, and return to the roots of the first two games. I played up to level 57 got bored with garbage loot, abysmal pvp, and annoying lack of build flexibility. If you try to switch up your skills to try new stuff, your character will be unplayable.

Forget what anyone says about every bill being playable because they aren’t. People who defend this aspect say that every build can’t be viable because it’s just a shadow ball getting fired at enemies versus a fireball is dumb because every build should I have a different unique play style. If they aren’t viable, don’t have them in the game. There is no sense of balance if you’ve made no attempt at balancing. Moreover, once you spec for this specific build, just so that you can play the game, they end up nurfing it forcing you to go back on the Internet and weigh the benefits of another build or you just have to put up with what you’ve worked to gain in the game being erased. There are some mechanics like being able to avoid attacks that I like but they could’ve been done a lot better. Anytime you get into a boss fight. The only real noticeable difference is mechanics where you have to kill side mobs that either make the boss stop doing a special attack or causing the boss to be completely invulnerable. I’m all for boss is having different phases. For this to be a AAA game my expectations were a lot higher than the game delivered on. It’s definitely not worth 70 - $100. I’m sure the game has monetization shop items and stuff where they try to milk you for more money but the game base isn’t worth this amount of money, so I’m not inclined to want to spend even more money on it. I would like a refund myself. I’ve already started playing other games and enjoy them a lot more. Expand

    It feels like Blizzard bent me over again. The story was pretty good. The end game is a waste of time and Nightmare dungeons are lame, boring, and annoying simultaneously. Way too hard to find people to play with now that rooms don't exist. They will fix it I'm sure, but currently, I'd just wait a few seasons.

    The woeful connection issues will get fixed eventually, but the reason for that is the problem I have with D4. I was around when the 1st originally launched and the subsequent releases and I've loved every one of them. Headphones on, dark room, off you go. You against the hordes.

    The woeful connection issues will get fixed eventually, but the reason for that is the problem I have with D4. I was around when the 1st originally launched and the subsequent releases and I've loved every one of them. Headphones on, dark room, off you go. You against the hordes.
    What we get now though is a fully connected game where you're constantly taken out of your "zone" because of the MMO elements. For example - town portal and there is some donut standing in front of the portal (it always happens). I've also then had many people just running in circles, or other banal activities. You get out into the world and as you're exploring and fighting, suddenly you'll get a bunch of other players join into your combat and kill whomever you were battling with. I do not want that. You can't interact with them, they are just ghosts interfering with your game. I appreciate some may like this, which is obviously ok. Why not provide an option to disable all the MMO stuff for those who do not want it? Other games have successfully done that. The Division I specifically didn't buy because of those elements.
    The game itself is dark, immersive, incredibly detailed and set off with a great sound stage. Every time I'm immersed and getting to really love the atmosphere I then get snapped back to some other random player doing something that's either stupid, or that interferes with my game. Had Blizzard not tried to shoehorn these MMO elements into what is essentially a single player game, then we would not be having these server connection issues. I've played more D3 in the past week or so than I can remember because I can't get into D4!!
    Couple of other minor gripes are the maps reveal too much, too quickly, which makes it hard to know where you have or have not explored. The progression seems to be a little off. I've been exploring the 1st region and trying to complete as much as I can, but I'm already at level 21 and I've read there is a cap at 50, so I'll be hitting that fairly soon.

    If you aren't bothered about the MMO integration and issues caused by that, then I'm sure you'll love this game. For me though, I'm very disappointed and most telling of how I feel about the game is last night I didn't even bother with it and launched Grim Dawn instead! If I thought I could refund it, I probably would and that makes me sad for a game I've been looking forward to for years

    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.
