    And the season patch completely destroyed all joys in the game.

    Devs slowing the game down to hide a lack of end game! Absolutely no respect for the community. Game was a slog before with uninspiring drop rates and the solution is to make game play even slower?? I'm done.

    As an old Diablo fan, I am extremely disappointed about Blizzard. D4 should have huge potential to be an excellent game, but they have ruin it and make it just like another Chinese P2W mobile game

    The game is a turd dress up as something nice.
    full of microtransactions and bad gameplay mechanics.
    Not worth it.

    Schlechtestes Spiel !
    Ich bin maximal enttäuscht. Das Spiel ist das Geld bei weitem nicht Wert. Ich rate jedem potenziellen Käufer solange wie möglich zu warten, in der Annahme, dass der Preis fällt. Würde auf Steam für solch ein Spiel nicht mehr als 25€ ausgeben! Grafik ist keinesfalls mieserabel, aber selbst die Standards aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt lassen sich in D4 NICHT finden.

Würde auf Steam für solch ein Spiel nicht mehr als 25€ ausgeben! Grafik ist keinesfalls mieserabel, aber selbst die Standards aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt lassen sich in D4 NICHT finden. Ich glaube da haben sich ein paar Praktikanten zusammengeschlossen, zuviel Jacky Cola intus und nach einem Wochenende steht das Spiel. Ich habe dokumentierte (das meiste auf Videomaterial) Abstürze von MINIMUM 18 Stück am Tag. Unzählige mühsam stundenlang gefarmte Items sind nach den Abstürzen allesamt verschwunden ohne Aussicht auf Wiederkehr. Season 1 hat das ganze entsprechend verschäft. Womit ich wieder bei der Praktikantentheorie wäre. Zum Glück kenne ich keinen Blizzard Mitarbeiter, aufgrund der Erfahrungen verschiedener Spiele dürfte dies aber kein wirklicher Verlust sein.

    - Grafik akzeptabel aber keinesfalls Hochwertig (RTX)
    - Ständige Spielabbrüche und abstürze bei unterschiedlichsten Parametern (andere GraKa, anderer PC, anderer Bildschirm, Systemupdates, Neuinstallation etc.
    - Alptraum Dungeons sind praktisch nicht spielbar. Mein S1 Char ist jetzt auf 78 und ich habe 2 Glyphen auf 5. (Das auch nur nach mehrfachen Abstürzen usw.) Ich brauche die Dinger nichtmal öffnen.
    - Insofern ist das Spiel welches einen absurd hohen Preis von mehr als 100€ aufweist NICHT spielbar. Das ist nichtmal eine BETA. Alpha anfang. Sollte umgehend von den Servern entfernt werden, korrigiert und in einem oder zwei Jahren wieder vollfunktionsfähig auf den Markt zurück kommen. Ich habe Blizzard mehrfach darüber unterrichtet, dass ich bitte mein Geld zurück haben möchte, sämtliches von mir erspieltes Material kan unwiderruflich gelöscht werden. Reaktionen darauf gibt es lediglich: "sie freuen sich auf meine Anwaltsschreiben). Blizzard hat sich bei Immmortal bereits den Jackpot geleistet und setzt mit Diablo IV nochmal einen darauf!
    Bis mal jemand nichtmehr frisch im Schädel ist und dort Amok läuft. Dann ist das geschrei groß.

    Mir ist zum Glück bewusst, dass dies eine strafbare Handlung wäre, weswegen ich nur noch eine allerletzte Schlussfolgerung daraus ziehen kann: Blizzard hat einen jahrzehntelangen Kunden auf ewig verloren. Ich wünsche allen beteiligten einen rechtleitenden Weg.

    A game with mmo touch, but in the game you are almost never someone.

    The game costs around ps5 79.-Euro . In addition, you can then pay battlepass.

    One is still ripped off with an ingame store....

    So buy a game and have the feeling to play a f2p game and be ripped off as well.

    Blizzards greed is immeasurable.

    A system where every time you level you feel weaker

    Diablo IV, sorry Diablo Immortal 2 is a product with little creativity that has been stripped of the key elements characteristic of hack and slash and action RPG games.

    The itemization and crafting system have been taken from the mobile game, which means it is not satisfying for players expecting a deeper and more elaborate experience.

    The Battlepass also simply makes no sense, why should you spend money to be able to earn something in a month, which is only temporary anyway?

    If you already take money in your hand, then you want to have it directly, so we players are forced to play actively.

    A live service train wreck. Shallow and Soulless. Nerfing you’re builds so you have to re farm,
    and killing XP gained to stretch out the content. Just before trying to sell you, the battle pass.
    which is so hollow. It needs you to replay side quests
    and start everything all over again.

    If you have any respect for your own time, don’t touch this hot mess..

    Open world is a joke, during campaign it had a meaning to explore and find stuff, but non-campaign quests give no plausible reward and randon mobs on the open world isn't worth farming. On endgame, you just teleport to your dungeon.
    You cant replay campaign bosses/maps unless you start a new char.

    I really wanted to like it but everytime I pick it up I want to close it off within a few minutes. As new iterations of Diablo come out they seem to lose a bit more of what made them good. Now it feels like a empty husk of a game. I would not recommend it. The devs don't care about making the game fun. They care about making the game good on paper by wasting your time.

Maybe Path of Exile will suits you better and it's free. The seasons are a joke, Their way to finish the game in production I guess.

    They're turning D4 into WOW to me. I personally hate WOW. I find it so boring and slow. But they want it to be slow because you're paying monthly and you can pay for level boosts.

    This is what they're doing to D4. Its slower and more boring than D3. Paying to skip tiers? **** off. This used to be one of my favourite game franchises. But this is what Blizzard/Activision do. They ruined COD and now they're doing it to D4. I was so worried for D4 when Activision merged with Blizzard and I was so right to be. Micro transactions are the death of quality games and do not belong in RPGs.

    Update: decided to go "deeper" into endgame. Quickly or rather slowly found out that there is no depth. Legendaries that started dropping and would offer "new" powers proved to be a rather lateral progression, not really changing my build because they can't. After level 50 any "new" thing or any item proved to be a gimmick that could give the expression to some people that the game and how you build your character could be complex and has depth. But it doesn't, it's a shallow autoclick free to play style mobile game. Then the newest patch came out and the next day I found out I'm leveling 30% slower doing the same dungeons, while being the same level. Calculated that in order to get to max level I would need at least 200 more hours just for that. Also found out that some of the really good items wore and had in my stash were destroyed by the patch. Practically salvage now, basically deleted. So they promised they won't wipe the boring altars and renown progress every season. In the same time they decided the players are worth nothing and they can simply delete their items, humiliate them and make them find other items. Such a level of disrespect can be treated only 1 way if a person respects him/her/we self. If they think they are Gods more power to them. I will not spend another second of my time on them. Never again Blizzard or Activision, for any reason, even as a gift. I uninstalled it and their buggy launcher too. Now if someone gifts me the game I will politely refuse it.    … Expand

    - cash shop with absurd prices in an already full-price game
    -contrary to crap IGN is spouting, there is absolutely no endgame at all
    - this is touted as a 'live-service'. Well, live services are usually free to play and receive a plethora of free updates, such as fortnite, LoL, Dota2, CSGO. Take Path of Exile for example: It received more content in a 3-6 month span, than Diablo 3 did in 5 years. The little content Diablo 4 will receive, will be paid DLC.
    - how is it, that a triple-A game developed entirely for console has no proper controller support on PC, when even $3 games on steam can pull that off? PS5 controllers only work with DS4 (or cable, lol)
    - no feature parity, same price - Where is local coop on PC?
    - this is basically an open-world AARPG, which is unfortunate because open world offers absolutely
    zero replayability. Do you really want to finish the story and collect all this garbage all over the map for every season? I couldn't even bring myself to do it on 1 character.
    - the scaling feels incredibly awful. Playing world events with a lvl 50? Well, that level 10 guy next to you could do it solo. Farmed/explored some area? Doesn't matter, everything else is now a couple level higher. There is no sense of progress, all skills feel mediocre: You'll succeed whether you min/max everything or just equip a couple blue items.
    - skills/builds are extremely formulaic. Everything feels so similar. Illusion of choice or no choice at all.
    - clunky mounts. Seriously, who thought this needed momentum physics?
    - no offline mode. I don't really care, but considering the poor server performance on release day, especially in hubs, this is a con.
    - the world is entirely forgettable - I just played this and all I remember is a series of canyons and tunnels, zone after zone.

    Repeatable dungeons, events, everything is the same, just different names. The game has 20 minutes of unique content, which start over every time. Environment feels same during whole campaign, graphics, animation: welcome to the 2012 again. Far away from triple A

    Due to the irresponsible patching of the management, the "Rogue" players felt angry and disappointed. Not only did the patch simply nerf the character, but the mechanism of character play itself collapsed, and there was no reason to play "Rogue" anymore after the endgame.

I’ve also played various other ARPGs, along with a variety of MMOs, FPS, RTS games, etc. I run a popular network of community game servers. The point is that I have experience gaming.

    The good:

    - nice graphics, smooth combat, decent sound design, okay music
    - has that “blizzard polish” you expect when it comes to presentation

    The bad:

    - massive open world that requires lots of pointless meandering with very few enemies and/or points of interest; towns are large and require lots of walking just to reach NPCs and waypoints; it is just disrespectful to the player’s time
    - despite being required to play online, there is literally no social aspect. nobody uses the chats, very few people are in towns.
    - the character building and looting feels very much like somebody who doesn’t know ARPGs designed it
    - storyline is a bore; those that say otherwise might need to crack open a book, watch a movie, or listen to a John Prine album
    - absolutely lacks LFG, search, party finder, modern inventory management
    - plays like a bad ARPG or bad MMO - it has none of the good qualities of either genre
    speaking of MMO, it is an immersion breaking experience to see other players when you aren’t expecting them

    Commentary:

    None of the above is even nitpicking the small details that really need addressing either; it’s not worth the time to even write it out. I hope this review will help those trying to make an informed decision.

    The concept of level scaling is flawed, as players consistently feel weaker after leveling up unless they acquire new weapons. This undermines the sense of progression and leaves players questioning the purpose of leveling. Furthermore, the lack of mob density in the early stages of the game dampens the excitement and exploration.

    Itemization is another letdown, as the focus seems to be solely on acquiring higher numerical values rather than hunting for unique and interesting items. With the existence of a global loot table, the open world becomes irrelevant, reducing the sense of exploration and variety. Additionally, as players progress through the world tiers, lower-tier items become obsolete, making their continued drop rate puzzling and frustrating.

    Furthermore, the game's item progression system suffers from a lack of balance and pacing. Once players reach a higher world tier, they are suddenly flooded with higher rarity items within a matter of an hour or two. This rapid influx of powerful gear provides a quick dopamine rush, but it also diminishes the sense of meaningful item progression. The problem becomes more apparent when players remain within the same world tier for an extended period. During this time, the advancement in item quality and effectiveness becomes almost negligible. It creates a stagnant experience where the excitement of finding better gear is greatly diminished.

    The skill system also suffers from imbalance and lack of coherence. While percentage damage from equipped weapons may work for certain classes like barbarians, it feels out of place for others like sorcerers. This discrepancy in skill mechanics undermines the overall cohesion and strategic depth of the gameplay.

    The user interface is another weak point, with inconsistent quality. The skill tree is unreadable, impeding players from making informed decisions about character progression. Furthermore, the item description tables suffer from poor design choices, making it difficult to gather crucial information about items. The overall design and visibility issues significantly detract from the user experience.

    The Paragon Board, intended to provide additional customization options, ends up feeling repetitive and lacking in diversity. The emphasis on percentage damage, resource bonuses, and generic damage increases results in different classes feeling remarkably similar, reducing the incentive to experiment with different playstyles.

    In terms of monetization, the game's release strategy raises concerns. Claiming a premiere date of 6.6 and offering a $20 Early Access option merely four days earlier feels disingenuous. Furthermore, the offer of Early Access for a short duration of only four days diminishes the value of the additional payment. It appears as if the intention was to capitalize on the fact that June 2nd fell on a Friday and June 6th on a Tuesday, maximizing profits rather than providing a genuine Early Access experience.

    Overall, these practices cast a shadow on the game's integrity and consumer trust. Players who paid $70 instead of $90 were not given a true premiere experience but rather what could be considered a "Later Access" to the full version 1.0 of the game on June 2nd. This approach undermines the expectations and fairness associated with Early Access models, where players typically support a game's development in its earlier stages. As a result, the game's monetization strategy leaves players feeling exploited and dissatisfied.

    In summary, the game suffers from a lack of complexity, opting for complicated mechanics that fail to deliver engaging gameplay. Issues with level scaling, mob density, itemization, skill mechanics, UI design, monetization choices, and item progression all contribute to a disappointing experience. Rather than providing a captivating Hack n' Slash adventure, the game relies on forced travel to prolong gameplay, further detracting from the overall enjoyment. As a result, the game falls short of its potential, leaving players longing for a more satisfying and well-rounded experience.    … Expand

The game itself is a huge disappointment and truly lacking in almost all areas. The only positives it has, are the cutscenes and the music. I still cannot believe that this is the product of over 6 years of development. It simply does not show. This feels more like a smaller studio trying their first stab at an ARPG, rather than an established studio making a new iteration of a (once) great franchise. Sadly, with this 4th and latest instalment, Blizzard has damaged the Diablo franchise to a point where I doubt recovery is possible.

    My biggest gripe is the end game. From Diablo 3, whenever you reach the endgame, you just push greater rifts. Here you push nightmare dungeons, which is basically just running a specific dungeon with some kind of modifiers on it, to increase the levels on your glyphs.
    The bosses in said dungeon poses no challenge as they are mostly scriptless, and feels like loot pinatas.

    Play the game without the influence of click-bait youtube videos and this game is at worst a 8/10 even if you are someone who pay alot of attention to what could be improved, which probably will be within new seasons.

    Items --- The uniques feel terrible -- cant reroll affixes and a rare is better in most instances. There are only a few meaningful stats on all gear -- CDR, Crit Chance, Crit Damage....very boring mechanics. The ability to only re-roll one affix on your items feels bad. The in-ability to trade that GG item you find for a common resource (gold) is annoying. You can't actually trade with anyone in game....you must use 3rd party sites and shady means.

    3rd Party Tools --- Instead of building mechanics into the game and keep the player in the Diablo window we are forced to go to third party sites to view the next helltide, view the next world boss, view the mysterious chest location, trade items meaningfully.    … Expand

    Early Access Scam game

    hack and 'slow'

    There are many unpleasant elements here and there.
    They have nothing to do with game, so the planner is just stupid.

    I do not like what Diablo 4 has become. The only thing i personally enjoy about the game is the artstyle. While the artstyle is good , it does not push anyhting into new graphical frontiers.

    The stats are very boring and it doesnt feel impactful unless you hit the rare nodes on the paragon system. The skill tree is basically just a visual differentiation of the rune system of d3. Its not a skill tree but a skill twig with one choice to do each talent.
    The campaign has very few cool moments and except two bosses they are all not very memorable.
    If you compare this to other games like lost ark or POE2 it does not stand a chance.
    It saddens me that they took the safest route for diablo and did not improve the genre as blizzard used to when they release a new game.
    Whenever someone speaks positively about the game it is always the same thing : A good foundation.
    A good foundation is nice but i want a whole house if I already pay premium prices with an additional ingame shop where there is always the chance that it will become p2w once the playercount drops and money is needed.    … Expand

    Beta is not an actual game. From levels 1-50, it might seem fresh and new, and you might enjoy it, especially if you're fond of the story. However, once you complete the main campaign, you'll realize that it lacks substance. The gameplay becomes slow and monotonous, and the end-game primarily revolves around level grinding, which wouldn't be an issue if the gameplay itself were enjoyable.Beta is not an actual game.

    I'm giving them a zero for the way they did the nerfs and the broken-incomplete game they sold. It's like they built an entire amusement park, but people are only using the seesaws. Now, the developers have to step in and temporarily take the seesaws out of service to encourage players to explore the rest of the park the way they intended.

    I must acknowledge the marketing team at Bliz for successfully hyping the game and driving sales. If it were any other game with a different name and a less devoted fan base, I don't think it would have fared as well. As it stands, the game feels more like a beta version rather than a fully polished product.    … Expand

    Weird they don't point out the 10/10 bots

    This game is pretty, but also, pretty soulless. I was always skeptical of the fake hype and the 10/10 shill reviews but I at least thought the game would be 4 or 5 out 10.. I was let down. I only have myself to blame. We had the betas and the footage.

I only have myself to blame. We had the betas and the footage. A game's visuals are only 1% of the whole story. you could see it was just a $100 skin over a bad design and clunky mess. It is as bad or worse than anthem. It has all the same features and flaws except anthems campaign was better and fighting mobs felt decent.

    The campaign... omg the campaign. it took me 15-20 hours to beat the whole campaign but it felt like decades. I just wanted it to be over but it just kept dragging on and on AND ON. And at the end you literally have to fight the same fing bosses over again that you hated fighting the first time. I played on Tier 1 so things would go faster and smoother which it did for the getting from point a to point b with mobs dying fast enough unless you get the archnem mob ( poe reference, and no I hate current poe and don't play it anymore so i'm not just a poe player hating the game ). BUT THE WORST was the "bosses" or "mini bosses" that have the bars. They are just annoying meat bags in the way of playing the game you have to smack down. I guess it wouldn't be THAT bad if it was just a few in the campaign.....no you have to fight one of these boring lame pos every 2 minutes. the campaign would be half as long if they didn't put these artificial bosses that i've already forgotten the names of by the time i'm done fighting them every time you take a step. I could have beaten the campaign a little faster but I was getting the statues and aspects I needed for my build so I could feel stronger and be prepared for endgame when I got there... however it felt pointless since I never felt a power boost ONCE during gameplay. I got all the items I needed and felt like I was lvl 5 with nothing because the mobs just out scale you. The story itself was written by some diversity hire that probably used chat gpt to write most of the plot and dialogue. Most of it was just to artificially increase the game time so people like asmongold can shill and say " at least you got your $100 worth with the time you spent playing it".. pathetic. don't get me started on this guy straight up gaslighting people and blaming them for not liking this trash.

    The endgame is quite literally just diablo immortal and anthem combined. you run around doing nothing but the game says you're doing something so you huff on the copium tank and sit there with a blank stare on your face as you run from location to location.

    The dungeons are the worst most trash pos garbage low iq never played a game in your life design i've ever seen. You know what we want when we do a "dungeon" , "rift", "map"? we want to pop in and BLAST. You know what we get in d4? mini campaign missions, just like in anthem. You go in and you have no idea how long it'll last. They make you pick up ish, they make you find random crap to get things from them, they MAKE YOU KILL 95% OF A DUNGEON THE SIZE OF CALIFORNIA and more..... the worst part? dungeons can have multiple "layers" or "dungeons" in a dungeon and they ALL have one of these requirements to complete it. And what makes it worse is when you just want a dungeon to last 4 minutes and you get 10 cursed shrines and chests.... REMOVE THESE. you know how many times I was fighting the butcher, saw a shrine, and was like "THANK GOD" AND IT WAS A FING CURSED SHRINE!!?!?!?!? TOO MANY!

    Gear is boring. i can see where they were going and i've thought about how a system like this could work before and i'm glad they did it to show me I was wrong. other than that it's not even worth the time to get in to.

    The game has 3 of the 4 big NOPES for me when it comes to games
    1. jumping / climbing puzzles - they're not really puzzles but they exist and ruin horses
    2. mokoko seeds - whoever puts these in games should be in prison for life
    3. paid early access ( days not early access status ) which anthem had too
    4. sailing - there's always room for them to f up.

    Monetization isn't as bad as poe. Insane we don't see a yong yea video about GGG being greedy trash. With that said the game should not have any monetization ffs. I spent 107 bucks on this trash. If I have a cool skin it should be from killing something you greedy fs.

    And no asmon / quin. We don't need to say positive things about everything. it is ABSOLUTELY possible for products to be completely downsides and negatives. stop being shills. you make money off games just for them existing. You can always find a positive cuz your bank account gets bigger no matter how ish it is. I don't have that luxury. I don't need to cope and see a silver lining when they try to shove ish down our throat and call it chocolate ice cream.

    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]
