    The game was ruined by updates that are only meant to make the game more of a grind and keep people playing longer artificially. All fun has been removed.

    Boring, no real content, multiplayer doesn't really exist (no matchmaking). This game is incomplete.

Shame on you, milking us for money to beta test your game and giving us nothing. Just nerf after nerf. Play this **** with you boss who called the shots to suicide this 20 years IP.

    Bee were promised a much better game since the release of the game blizzard had done nothing but nerf the game to a point where it is unplayable and un enjoyable. It’s a seasonal where you play 3 months just to try and hit 100. Lore is in enjoyable in this game everything is rng and builds are so weak that even if you try and push as solo casual player you will get no where.

Compared to other games like elden ring where lore is interesting or even indie games like hades or vampire survivor where we actually get a strong character at the end if we do everything right. As soon as a player gets strong blizzard just needs the class. Even the market is bad it’s not free and they try to control everything in the game why don’t they just okay it for us too?

    You will grind 100s of hours to try and min/max a build only for the developers to ninja nerf your progress. Items on your character will actually be rolled to other stats/skills/%. 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.

    It was fun an engaging to start with. Classes had many builds to choose from making them all feel unique. Blizzard decided to put all the good and bad things into a blender and turned it into a thick, disgusting paste they called Patch 1.1. No one wants it now and for the most part it makes people sick.

    Unfortunate L for the one of the most nostalgic RPG series of a generation.

    To start off, I've played Diablo 1, Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 in extensive time frames. Well over 4,000 hours in each game. Diablo 2 was my most played game, where I'd have to gauge it's somewhere between 20,000 and 25,000 hours. Diablo 4 makes you feel like you are barely keeping up with the difficulty curve and    Unfortunate L for the one of the most nostalgic RPG series of a generation.

    Diablo 4 makes you feel like you are barely keeping up with the difficulty curve and is very contingent on your skills and gear. If you do not put the proper point in the proper skill for your build using the gear you find, you'll find the monsters have become harder when you level. It's "match level" scaling can be an absolute hinderance to people who do not know what build to run or have not found the gear/legendary aspects to create the build.

    The game has many problems from bugs and exploits to developers who actively work to lower the fun of the game. If one were to ask me if they should buy this game, I'd tell them wait 2-3 years (Diablo 3's timeframe from release to an acceptable game). I have nothing to tell these people as I have to be honest and I cannot just sit there and assume these developers will make any meaningful changes the community has been very vocal about. They have their vision to make money off of us and they aren't willing to change that in the slightest.

    The reviews from game companies are clearly paid reviews or they played 1-25 and thought the game was gonna be that fun throughout. Levels 1-50 is where the game feels completed. Post 50 the game is a grindfest with constant nerfs to loot by the developers. The developers in this game have a vendetta against it's players that play it harder than anyone else because those players found the holes of content that was non-existent. The game is for now, a lost cause.

    It pains me to say it, I am a huge fan of the Diablo series. Diablo 1 was great, Diablo 2 was it's peak, Diablo 3 was showing cracks in Triple A publishers armor and Diablo 4 is the full collapse of the series. Hacking and slashing through demons is great, but when the monster variety never changes and the dungeon boss variety never changes, you feel like the last dungeon is the same as the one you're doing now.

    I put 14 days of gameplay into the game since release and I have not touched it since July 7th. They told us there was a big patch coming on July 18th, two days before the Season 1 launch. They nerfed everything. It was worse than I could've ever imagined. They nerfed all top end damage buckets and multiplicative damage types because they are worried top players will beat the content too fast yet again and realize their Season 1 mechanics are not good either and right back to a lowered playerbase they will go and nerfed all defensives by 50%! They made getting through the game more tedious than launch by nerfing EXP where you have no choice but do Nightmare Dungeons on your character to level, that will just kill you faster because your defenses are nerfed by 50% and if you can't tank them, you have to kill them faster or it leads to more dying - but that is nerfed by 50% on average with some builds seeing upwards of 75% nerfs to the overall damage.

    I don't know what their goal is, but this ain't it. Save yourself money. Don't give Blizzard and Activision any more time or effort. The only way this company will change is if the same thing that happened to Diablo 3 happens to Diablo 4. Everyone gets fed up, 3,500 players are left playing then they make some meaningful changes to make the game fun. For now, stay away and just keep an eye on the Microsoft takeover to hopefully fix this abomination.    … Expand

    You basically take everything that players are asking for, put it in a nice list, and then throw it all in the trash and do the complete opposite. You just don't listen. Don't care. You have our money and we got a broken, unbalanced, messed up game. I play a sorc too, and you just keep defiling it further.

    Good: -Nice graphics, proper aesthetic. Bad: -Every zone is copy/pasted, and    You basically take everything that players are asking for, put it in a nice list, and then throw it all in the trash and do the complete opposite. You just don't listen. Don't care. You have our money and we got a broken, unbalanced, messed up game. I play a sorc too, and you just keep defiling it further.

    Good:
    -Nice graphics, proper aesthetic.

    Bad:
    -Every zone is copy/pasted, and looks EXACTLY the same. You NEVER feel like you're anywhere different.
    -Every town looks exactly the same.
    -Every town has a 50-mile radius around it, where you cant run with the crap horse until you're outside of said radius.
    -Game is full of bugs. Endless endless bugs.
    -Game has major memory leak that people have reported since the first beta, and is still not fixed.
    -Game has persistent sound-bug issue where the voiceover will become bugged with echos and weird dungeon effects applied to dialog, and then never goes away. Not with a reinstall, or anything. Reporting it for months gets no reponse, either.
    -Characters are unbalanced beyond words. Tuning them results in ruining them, versus improving them.
    -Forced MMO & forced online only play, but then has zero MMO features and nothing of convenience for your forced-experience. You can't even chat with the world, outside of Trade, and they STILL HAVENT ADDED A GLOBAL CHAT. As if this is so unbelievably difficult.
    -QoL and conveniences from past games have been just, completely left out of this one.
    -Zoom on character is so uncomfortably close it makes you feel weird, and you refuse to add option to zoom out further. It's obvious it can be done, because it's done on horse, and for world bosses, or higher peaks in land. Will you ever address it? Nope.
    -What year does it need to be when we are able to party with more than just 4 people like this is a LAN party or pure-console game? I play on PC. In diablo 2, I could have 8 people in a group. This is so utterly annoying and old.
    -No room in stash, and can only buy 4 stash tabs. You know perfectly well adding the ability to purchase more is as easy as your ability to nerf %'s on a spreadsheet that controls the game. Just stop.
    -Can't simply just 1v1 your friend if you want, must go to FoH and then risk others coming in and ruining your dueling and trolling, and since you can't request to duel outside of FoH.... this is just rudimentary.
    -Mount is practically unusable, between having to stop every 10 seconds to climb a cliff, it can barely walk 1 foot forward without hitting every single solitary piece of terrain that there is.
    -Every single dungeon is a copy/paste of another. All of these dungeons, yet I haven't been in a single one that has felt different from the next. They literally took the shell of one, and then made it "icy", then copy/pasted it, and made it not icy, then copy/pasted it, and switched the pathways around. It's pathetic.
    -If you want any actual updates you're forced to follow these clowns personal accounts on Twitter. So if you want game updates you gotta see PezRadar shirtless and pictures/stories about his "gains journey", and whatever else, instead of actually using or communicating on the forums where everybody is, asking for some acknowledgment. If they don't like your comment on twitter, they block you. Rob Ferguson is the worst. He's 80 years old, and takes everything personally. Has no idea what this generation of gamers wants, he's just another slob like Jay Wilson, telling people what they want because "he knows" and we dont.
    -Because they have no end game, or anything else actually fun in the game to do, they made leveling and progression even slower and more miserable, then proceeded to gatekeep the world tiers. Why? No reason, other than to just do the exact opposite of majority-ask and make it more miserable. You know, cause helping friends level up so you can play together is so blasphemous.
    -Did I mention the items/itemization is absolutely and utterly horrendous? It's so bad. It's so stupid. 500 useless dumb buckets of things and then the comparison thing, don't even get me started. It feels like a special-education team came up with some of these concepts.
    -Item drops: they're trash. They're all trash. And, if you're a cold sorc and you want gear for.... a cold sorc... you aren't getting it. You're getting 90% gear for fire/light. So you literally find the opposite of your build, 90% of the time. It's on purpose too. Odds don't work that terribly.

    Games are supposed to bring joy, and fun. The only thing this game does is genuinely infuriate me while playing it, and the experience is miserable. I'm not sure how I even lasted this long. But I feel absolutely zero joy from this game. It feels like a job, not a break *from* my job. Everything's a copy/paste with minor alterations, including the cosmetics. LOL, explain why the sorc has FOUR of the same exact helmets with small differences like a string, or a barely noticeable color change?

    They devs are dismissive, rude and out of touch. Rod mocks anyone who is upset with the game while he continues to drive changes that result with players stampeding away angry with an empty world left behind.

    This game launched well. I was a fan and enjoyed it, which kind of surprised me positively seeing as I also played earlier installments of the series and feared the worst after the diablo immortal fiasco.

    Sure there were issues, but hey, what new release doesn't have them? It also always takes some time to sort things out and get experience from live gaming and player feedback.

    Unfortunately Blizzard is what Blizzard does and the philosophy apparently again is nerf what is fun and feels good in order to balance instead of buffing and bringing what is bad up to a level were it is good and usable as it ought to be. Games should be FUN, otherwise what is the point? Especially non pvp ones where players should be allowed to feel a bit overpowered after hours and days of leveling, grinding for optimized gear and tweaking builds.

    This all peaked with the latest 1.1 patch before season 1, which made the game almost unplayable in terms of overall feel. Especially having experienced the pre patch version.

    All classes (yes I have them all on high level) now feels very lackluster and just underwhelming.

    More or less none of the Quality of Life changes that has been begged for by the player base for a good while now were implemented.

    Frankly I no longer have much interest in playing this until this is reverted and massively fixed towards the buff side so it feels good and fun again.

    Oh and did I mention they made the entire useless grind of leveling take a LOT longer with this latest patch as well, nerfing all the experience you can gain? The game does not even really begin until you are done with the story and hit level 50. And then there are 50 additional levels to grind up that already took forever. Especially frustrating for alts after you already done it once on your main class for anyone so inclined that wants to experience everything the game has to offer...

    I'm OUT, at least until such a time as the power level of this game is back and surpassing what it was pre-season 1 and not least until Storage space and structure has been thoroughly fixed.    … Expand

    Been into the diablo series since D1 back in early 90's. This game was great in beta and even at launch regardless of the bugs and things that shouldnt of made it out of beta. But with the release of season 1 and the WORST major patch in ARPG history, i see this game becoming a cash grab and grind fest.

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.

    The cracks began to show with Diablo Immortal being a joke of a game. Now, Diablo IV follows in its footsteps. There is no excuse for a company of Blizzard's pedigree and size to release an unfinished game. They should be lauded for the scope and breadth of the game world, and that's about it.

    This game is buggy, the mechanics are not well done, and they appear to not understand what an ARPG should be. Truly mind boggling, since the category was invented by Blizzard. I will not be picking up this game again unless they manage to fix it.    … Expand

    Trash game set up to be a cash grab. Developers are out of reach from the consumer (players in the community). All they do is nerf viable builds and make the game unfun. Told the players to go play other games when there is literally no content in the game to play. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. Game isn't even finished and should've been sold at 20-30 bucks. Overpriced!

    Completely out of touch Devs that seemingly want to intentionally kill this game. The latestest patch is probably this worst patch in the history of games.

    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]
