    It's never been clearer that the devs themselves don't play the game.
    I bought a game almost two months ago for 90$, now they make me regret ever buying the game.

    I WANT A REFUND!!!

    1.1.0 Patch destroyed the game!!!! Plain and simple no ambitious to play this game. Hours and hours of grinding the perfect loot for my build for these people to nerf EVERYTHING!!! Give me a reason to play this pure trash that they turned this game into after i loved playing this game so much. WILL NOT be playing season 1 and its a shame as i was looking forward to it.

    The constant nerfing is really demoralising. I am a casual gamer, and this slid from fun to frustration far too quickly. I've followed Diablo from 1 to 4. Time to move on.

    Level scaling sucks, you never really feel like being overpowered. When your meant to be a lone hero fighting the monster of hell.
    MMO experience is nonexistence it leaves you asking why is this in the game?
    Dungeons are all the same, kill all enemies or find and place an item on a pedestal.
    The eternal realms have been nerfed to balance the season, so if you don't play the season prepare to be underwhelming.
    Loot drops are like seeing a box of crispy cream droughts only to find some funny bastard has switched the doughnuts for vegetables and opening chests that you would think should be dropping amazing loot disappoints.
    When legendries drop most of the time you end up salvaging it as you have so little stash space, so pick a build a stick to it and hope Blizzard don't take the nerf bat to it.    … Expand

I had fun with this title at release but the paper thin endgame is awful and the XP grind is brutal (made even more brutal with the newest patch for some baffling reason). I may come back with a proper expansion but if anybody has not picked up this title yet, I would seriously urge patience.

    No care for the players, only the money they already received. It's sad that they did this, but at least it lets the players know to not trust Blizzard in the future. Weird they would shoot their own foot like this, but I guess this is what they wanted.

    I Mostly spend all my game time playing the story mode, when i reach endgame T3 i sadly noticed and realized that this was a treadmill and endless farming.
    I stopped playing and I've been waiting with hope that the famous season will bring improvements and less tedious gameplay but was all the contraries, The last patch just finished to F&% the game even more.

    In nearly 30 years since Diablo was introduced it seems Blizzard hasn't learned what's good from previous Diablo games and what's bad.

I don't believe I could have hand selected worse or more unfun features. (1) None of the quality of life things from D3 exist. (2) There's 0 end game. (3) You won't be able to just try out new fun builds, because switching takes hours of gold saving monotonous clicking paragon points. (4) There's too many useless secondary stats so 99.9999% of gear that drops is useless. It's very common to hear people not updating a single piece of gear from levels 75-90 because upgrades are so rare. (5) Dev teams provided so little content for the game they are nerfing XP to try and slow the game down to make it artificially last longer. (6) Constant nerfs, not just to damage but things like cool down reduction make the game feel more turn-based than "action" rpg, you'll spend time standing around waiting for cooldowns in-between packs. (7) Nightmare dungeons are so poorly designed you often spend time backtracking in them because of poor layout. (8) Uniques required for certain builds (not Uber uniques) have been know to just not drop at all for the entire level experience from 1-100. You may see a specific druid build you want to try but never in month of leveling from 1-100 ever see that item needed for that build. (9) Rerolling stats on gear is prohibitively costly so even a piece of near perfect gear with 1 bad stat often has to be thrown away. (10) Tomorrow's fireside chat that Blizzard has announced after the immediate backlash to S1 patch will 100% be them just telling players that players are and devs are right and devs know what's best, when it's clear none of them have played the game past level 25.

    After investing 200 hours into this game, I have mixed feelings about it. While I don't want to give it a negative review, I can only rate it a max of 7 out of 10, considering it slightly above average. It falls short in several areas and lacks the qualities necessary to be considered a "Game of the Year" contender. Furthermore, I don't foresee myself playing it much longer.

While I don't want to give it a negative review, I can only rate it a max of 7 out of 10, considering it slightly above average. It falls short in several areas and lacks the qualities necessary to be considered a "Game of the Year" contender. Furthermore, I don't foresee myself playing it much longer.

    The game's main downfall lies in its post-campaign content. The lack of engaging endgame activities is apparent, and it feels like the developers prioritize minor bug fixes over addressing the fundamental issues that make the game less enjoyable for those who have progressed beyond the initial campaign.

    As an action RPG, it fails to deliver action.

    As an online game it fails to deliver social experience.

    As a looting game it fails to provide a rewarding loot experience.

    Dungeons quickly become repetitive, bosses lack inspiration, and combat mechanics are only average at best. Regrettably, playing the game beyond the campaign feels more like a tedious chore than an exhilarating experience.

    While there is potential for improvement in the future, it is imperative that the developers take a proactive and dedicated approach to address the game's inherent flaws. Overall, I would cautiously recommend this game to RPG enthusiasts, but it's essential to manage expectations and not anticipate a truly fulfilling and enduring gaming experience.

    It's worth noting that neglecting player concerns and failing to address issues promptly can have disastrous consequences for a game's community, as demonstrated by the unfortunate fate of a game called Anthem (Rest in Peace).

    Developers should take these concerns seriously and make swift efforts to prevent a similar fate for this game.    … Expand

    Nerfing every class and ability and halting player progress in order to milk the same lackluster content is a bad move. Blizzard has become a sad company with no respect for its playerbase.

The ability to skip campaign is nice however grinding to 100 again not so much and now with the new 1.1.0 update, that grind got significantly longer AND don't expect any help from your friends to breeze you through to higher levels, those days are over. The xp gains now are laughable, I get them trying to prevent pay to level schemes, but me and my friends rely on each other to help boost one another. The across the board nerfs are atrocious, people were actually having fun playing the game and making it harder just to extend play time is a bad decision. When QOL improvements were added such as being able to teleport to a NM dungeon, it made the game better, cut down on unnecessary travel time and helped get lower level friends to the dungeon safely. Now, storage space, no changes to that? Really, my main character's loot took up tons of space. I had to create mule characters to hold stuff like gems and aspects. Anyways, I could keep going, but I need to remind myself that even know I paid $99+ for this game, it isn't mine and I only paid to access it. Shame on me.… Expand

    Yea, but what should i say... The Last Patch just killed the Game for me. High EXP Cuts, Nerfs (Offensive and defensive) around the Board and just giving a sht on the Community, that paid 70$ Minimum each. In Fact almost all my Builds are dealing like 30-50% LESS damage and dying faster. And they nerfed a important stat in the game "Player have #% Increased fun while playing Diablo4" by almost 100%. Giving us items for BUGGED Resistances (!!!) and will be fixed in Season 2 (?!). Are you fcking kidding me? Uber Uniques that are so rare, that no one will ever see one. Trading is a Joke. Crafting is bad. Helltides just got WAAAY longer. No Gear Upgrades after level 70 (just small ones). Stashes are way to small (playing several builds and 2-3 Classes and you are fcked). No Loot filter at all. The Hardest Boss in the game doesnt have specific Drops, lmfao.
    I really had so much hope. But boy, here i am.. Bashing Blizzard on Metacritic. Blizzard is still so out of touch with the Community. Learned my final lesson now and will move on. I am using my Random Teleport to go to Baldurs Gate 3 or any other Game.    … Expand

    Damage? NERF
    Defense? NERF Cooldown? NERF XP? NERF Power Leveling? NERF Helltide? NERF

    Sure, some builds needed to be fixed, but you didn't have to completely gut entire classes while you were at it. But the nerfs are not even the point of this post. I don't even care about them. I'll adapt and overcome, I'm not afraid of a challenge.
    But this patch made me really think, why play season 1 at all? You didn't address a single one of the NUMEROUS valid complaints about this game.

    6 new uniques? If you think adding 6 new unique items for every 3 month season is an acceptable pace to bring some depth to the sorely lacking itemization in this game, I might as well not play until season 30.
    No leaderboards? No in game trading with option for self found mode? No paragon board reset? No Occultist changes? (Cost or listing possible outcomes) No group finder? No stash tabs?
    Nothing, in fact. Not a single thing to shine a bit of light on this **** sandwich. You made the game slower. Mobs take longer to kill, yield less xp, and we're now gated to lower world tiers until the "recommended" (now mandatory) levels of 50 for WT3 and 70 for WT4.

    So on Thursday, we're expected to start over, but this time it's all slower, less fun, time & experience gated.
    And all to get to the end and realize what an unfinished and lacking game this really is. Again. Still.

    Maybe if you spend less time trying to "balance" a SINGLE PLAYER PVE GAME WHERE NOBODY CARES ABOUT BALANCE, and more time adding things that are actually fun and immersive, you might sell more battle passes and cosmetics.

    Game started off decent and has progressively gone down hill, development team actively engages and listens to the community based on their feedback and then pulls the rug on them last minute making terrible decisions based on what they think is “you actually want”. Why they have so many bugs and glitches that they “can’t fix immediately” is beyond me.

Why they have so many bugs and glitches that they “can’t fix immediately” is beyond me. Did they source their code from someone oversees on Fiverr and it takes a few months for that one person to make the changes they need like resistances? Also why they hell are they not testing patches completely in open test servers and actually get feedback on broken design before launching it right before a season starts? The management in the diablo development team who has final say/approval over patches seriously needs a reality check or a final check and a kick out the door.… Expand

    Revert the Update !!!!
    Everything about the update is wrong, are the developers playing roulette to pick what they will change ?

    So I was going to give this game a 8-9, however after the last patch (1.1) I can say that this game is just a pure disappointment. There are so many Quality of Life changes that are needed that Blizzard just straight up avoided. They nerfed all damage 50% because the 0.01% of players made builds that literally broke the game, understandable, but don't destroy the entire fun for the casualSo I was going to give this game a 8-9, however after the last patch (1.1) I can say that this game is just a pure disappointment. There are so many Quality of Life changes that are needed that Blizzard just straight up avoided. They nerfed all damage 50% because the 0.01% of players made builds that literally broke the game, understandable, but don't destroy the entire fun for the casual players who don't have 15 hours a day playing this game.

    There are so many features that are needed to make the game easier to use. Loot filter, bigger stash, search menu, storage features, build diversity and many many more but i dont want to bore you with the list. So what do they say? "Those features will come later"....alright well the game you made before had all these features that players were asking for that celebrated when it was brought in....don't you think we would want that again.

    Blizzard just destroyed this game, and now all fans will be going to Balders Gate 3 or PoE2 when it releases later in the year. Save your money, play something else and you might have Dev's that actually care / respect your opinion.    … Expand

    Worst patch ever. Lizzard, Please! Fix the game. It was fun before, it seemed like you were working on improving things. But then you decided to just ruin it all with Season 1? Doesn't make sense at all.

    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]
