I even enjoyed the monotonous Nightmare Dungeon grind as I reached the upper end of my character's progression. But to negate all that work and not offer anything in return is an egregious decision. Not only did they refuse to make any Quality of Life improvements, they actually made things worse, like making it take an extra 2 seconds to exit a dungeon. WHY??? On the eve of Season One, the developers have managed to make me not want to play anymore. I can't imagine a more poorly managed rollout, and it reeks of greed and being detached from the player base.… Expand

Choosing to decrease all experience gains, reducing damage capability, and destroying your survivability all in the name of increasing the grind. It’s an action RPG without the action. It’s a loot driven game without the loot. It’s an mmo without the social features. I wanted so badly to love this game but after the latest patch, I uninstalled. Diablo 3 all over again.

    Making the game harder to level when less than 5% of the accounts actually have a max level character? Bad choice.

    Nerfing the class that can't even do end game content to begin with even further? Logic was not used in this decision.

    It's almost as though they are only paying attention to the metrics coming from the streamers and hardcore players (not that it's their fault) and trying to balance the game around the 1% vs the tons of people playing the game casually who might like to see the beginning of the top end some time this year.

    The end of this Season will be telling on whether I change my score. If less than 10% of the active Season 1 participants make it to 100, and something isn't done/admitted to immediately, I'll rate this as a zero forever. The game is good. The devs are poor.    … Expand

    Diablo 4 was released as an incomplete game due to rushed timelines and extensive development needs. That being said it’s still fun to play! I’m very familiar with the grind, as I grew up with Diablo and Diablo 2. I’d even go so far as to say I ENJOY the grind or gear and levels. The combat is engaging, the story / lore for the series is incredible, and the visuals are fantastic!

The combat is engaging, the story / lore for the series is incredible, and the visuals are fantastic!

    The biggest issue seems to be how incredibly out of touch the Blizzard team seems to be with the D4 playerbase. Updates consistently run contrary to what players are asking for, and the biggest community asks seem to be ignored or tabled with no ETA. The game is getting worse as it ages rather than better. The season 1 mechanic of shoving whole organs into rings and necklaces is immersion breaking without actually adding a meaningful feeling mechanic to the game, and the season came with an update that makes playing off-season endgame content feel underwhelming at best. Inventory management in this game is a JOKE, non-repetitive gameplay is non-existent as devs push players to engage with a single piece of content by pulling rewards from other content, and itemization/build planning is as unbalanced as ever as they continue to try leveling different play styles by literally making ALL builds less effective. Oh, and their idea of making more “endgame content” is by slowing down progression so endgame content is harder to reach! If you haven’t purchased the game yet, I don’t recommend doing so now.    … Expand

To receive an Uber Unique you have to run 20.000.000 NM-Dungeons ( Of course if you are in NM-Dungeons with mobs which have to have more than lv 85 ).

    Diablo Devs are so hardheaded with their approach for Diablo 4 that they do not listen to its community feedback and it's always "WE ARE RIGHT, YOU ARE WRONG". They need a Dev overhaul, Rod needs to go pronto.

Sticking with one build is very difficult for the average to above average player. All nerfs will be based on streamers who have all BiS. Congrats, your Shako was just upgraded to a Tarn.

    Also, half the systems in the game are just terrible. the mount system is an absolute abomination, the itemization completely blows. I honestly could write 10 pages about all that is wrong with the game it’s kind of insane to think about how much they’ve missed with the team and budget they have. Then to top it all off, 7/18 released a patch which I can only describe as a complete slap in the face. Not a single QOL update, nerfed all damage and survivability, nerfed helltides for literally no reason. And the cherry on the cake is making the dungeon exit timer go from 3 seconds to 5 seconds. Nobody asked for this change. It is purely a time sink that blizzard thought they could sneak in. Absolutely reprehensible. 1 star is generous. the game deserves zero    … Expand

However, the long-term outlook for the game beyond the end game content is concerning due to the developers and their management's lack of attention to community feedback. Unfortunately, the season 1 patch brought about some unfavorable changes. The game's pace was slowed down, and all characters were weakened, resulting in a diminished sense of enjoyment.

    Many of the exciting and powerful abilities that players previously had are now gone, and certain builds that were already weak were not given the buffs they deserved. Instead, the developers chose to make every other build weaker, further impacting the overall fun and balance of the game. As a result, playing the game after the preseason patches feels less rewarding and engaging.

    Prior to the patch, players across various platforms, including Reddit, YouTube, and Twitch, had been voicing their requests for character buffs to increase the game's excitement and enjoyment. However, these pleas were met with the opposite response as the developers decided to make everyone weaker and slow down the gameplay.

    Basic quality-of-life updates seem to be overlooked, like increasing inventory space to accommodate items for different character builds. The shared chest between characters fills up too quickly, causing inconvenience to players who want to save items for various setups. It's hard to comprehend why the developers haven't introduced additional tabs or increased the chest capacity.

    Moreover, the game's late-game activity, Helltide farming, has been made more tedious by a 40% increase in the cost of loot chests, without offering any significant benefits. Additionally, the decision to lengthen the time it takes to teleport out of dungeons is baffling and frustrating for players.

    Furthermore, some super rare items exist in the game, but their scarcity has diminished players' excitement for farming them. The community has repeatedly requested a more consistent method for obtaining these items, such as defeating challenging super bosses or lowering the drop rate. Regrettably, the developers have yet to address these concerns in their updates.

    It is truly disheartening how unresponsive the developers and their management team have been to the valid feedback and suggestions from the player community. Their lack of communication and action is undermining the potential enjoyment of the game and leaving dedicated players feeling unheard and disappointed.    … Expand

    The only good things in the entire patch were bug fixes to things that should've never have made it past beta testing to begin with as well as making uber-boss rewards solo only. The rest is completely out of touch and incoherent blabber that honestly makes me think they looked up and tried to copy POE patch notes and accidentally only looked at Ruthless.

    Instead of adding complex and challenging aspiring content for players to strive for, increasing rewards and incentives to do such content over just regular ARPG-like farming, they nerfed player power by 50% across the board. I suppose adding gold and magic find % modifiers to each tier of Nightmare Dungeon was too hard as well.

    Rerolling items at the occultist is too expensive? Tough **** you now have like 3 completely useless affixes for 4 out of 5 classes to help you brick your items even faster.

    Overworld is boring and meaningless past level 5? Gotcha, let's make helltide chests expensive as **** for no reason while retaining the same (terrible) rewards. Helltide cinder drops were stealth nerfed btw, so that's pretty cool. Do enough for your forgotten souls and then never do them again! Back to Nightmare Dungeons you go!

    You wanna farm more gold to reroll your good items? Unlucky bro **** you, normal dungeons are completely irrelevant now because they drop ****all compared to Nightmare Dungeons. Best source of gold making? Boosting. Oh yea I forgot, that's gone too, let's go.

    Pointless to even bring up the whole season "mechanic" of malignant hearts, which are incredibly boring as per their twitter post, not very powerful at all AND they make you "opt out" (aka force you) of wearing 750 armor on your rings via the skulls. You get ANOTHER cheat death mechanic though, wonderful! That's exactly what HC needed.

    Search function? Stash tabs? Loot filters? Density buffs? Real endgame content? Making resistances actually functional? Fixing gold sinks? Balancing underused skills in a meaningful way? Balancing irrelevant affixes so that they're competitive with the better ones? Reworking Sorcs so that their class ACTUALLY WORKS in the game they paid $100 for? **** you. Enjoy the battlepass though, it's real cheap.

    Oh let's not forget that they said they'd fix VRAM memory leak but then completely retconned it by not including it in the patch notes, as well as literally any other fix to game stability. I had zero crashes prior to this patch and now I've gotten Fenris like 5 times since the patch. Cool! Thanks for that.

    Could go on and on, but the bottom line is that I TRULY believe this is the singular worst major patch in ARPG history, and the only way they can possibly save the game (not the season, THE GAME) is either panic delaying the Season 1 launch while trying to clean up their own mess, or completely deleting the patch and just launching the season with the previous foundation. They just put out job openings for basically every position under the sun for D4 like 2 weeks ago, maybe wait until those are filled and then try again.

Nothing I did mattered, because new content is locked to seasons, and everything got nerfed! Hopefully one of two things happens, they issue refunds to everyone who feels wronged by their decision making, or they revert the 1.1 patch changes. I understand nerfs are needed for the long term health of the game, but what about NOW? It was already a struggle to get through the endgame content without the cookie cutter meta builds, and now you just overall take more damage and do less damage. Personally, I was also pretty upset with the whole "make a new character for the seasons" thing, but I got over it when I realized I could just play different classes. Now my motivation to play has just been sapped completely. Guess it is my fault though, buying this game given the reputation Blizzard has built for themselves. Really just mind boggling to me that they know how their damage formula works and how the game progresses, and they still decided to make these changes. Makes me wonder what their internal comms look like. Do the actual programmers get any input? Do we get any input (lol)? I don't know. What I do know is first impressions matter, and if this is how they operate when bringing new content, I think the negative response from the community is warranted.… Expand

I'm 37 years old and I've been playing ARPG's since the early days of Diablo 1 and of course Ultima VII. I grew up having Diablo 2 LAN parties in my basement with my friends where my Mom would make us pizza, and we would descend into the depths of Hell having a grand ol' time. Sadly, Diablo 4, after a smooth launch, just absolutely destroyed their game with this new patch. And I'm going to explain exactly WHY they did this.

    Diablo 4's latest patch has everything to do with destroying the Eternal Realm. Yes, the Eternal Realm may seem "less important" because it won't feature these cool seasonal mechanics that we're supposed to enjoy, but, you can't access, you guessed it: The Battle Pass, in the Eternal Realm.

    Big shocker right?

    When you start to think logically that all of these "game designs and mechanics" were built around a corporate "for profit" scheme, you will understand that the Blizzard that used to exist, is simply a corpse that has been exploded by the greedy Millionaire/Billionaire Necromancer's, that prop up this corpse of a company.

    They sucked the soul out of this game, which actually had a solid foundation, and only needed a few solid tweaks to really solidify it's future, however, these corporate idiots cannot comprehend that empathizing and understanding your player base over making disgusting greedy decisions isn't possible.

    Why else would they reduce cooldown reduction by 30%? It's arguably the most important nerf in this new patch. If you can't reset your cooldowns fast enough, you can't use your skills faster, ultimately, slowing down the game and progress you would've made in the game.

    Why else would they reduce damage reduction by 25%, and completely gut the Aspect of Disobedience, the best defensive aspect in the game? It's the exact same concept, you die more, so it ultimately takes LONGER to get best in slot gear, and reach late endgame content.

    Speaking of endgame content, there is none. This is why they are making these changes. It's why they tried to sneak in capstone dungeon level caps of 40 and 60 without telling us.

    It's why they ultimately giga nerfed power leveling, boosting, and group leveling as a whole. Honestly, they just nerfed leveling and XP in general, because they understand that there's not enough content at the end of the game for you to enjoy.

    They want to keep you in the game as long as possible, so you have the most amount of exposure to the battle pass, and the more time you're in the game, the more time you will be exposed to the battle pass, and more likely to spend money on cool looking cosmetics for weapons, armor or your horse.

    Overall, Diablo Immortal is a disappointing game that fails to live up to the expectations of the Diablo franchise. The game is bland, repetitive, and lacks any real sense of achievement or reward. If you are a fan of the Diablo series, I would recommend skipping this game.    … Expand

    Trash update. Directly nerf the ranger build to trash. I spent so much time and effort in mt character. Now it’s completely wasted.

    If you're looking for a game to spend time with and feel like you are progressing and being fairly rewarded for your efforts, look elsewhere.

    The developers and engineers at Blizzard Games have repeatedly ignored the opinions of gamers, resulting in a new game, Diablo 4, with a drastically reduced level of freedom and an extremely poor gameplay experience! The latest patch update is even more unacceptable to me! I demand a refund from Blizzard Games!

    Just teach them to stop forcing short term player retention changes down our throats, make positive changes, prove you can listen to a community. Disgusting company continues its morals from Diablo Immortal.

    They've destroyed it with the season 1 ! Uninstall it. It doesn't worth playing it anymore.

    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]
