    Great campaign but severely lacking any endgame and itemisation (no Uber bosses with loot drop tables besides one with no good loot all the way at lvl100 which 99.9% of people aren’t getting to anyway ..

    Believe me, don't waste your time and money on this horrible game. The game designers are trying their best to make you feel awful. They promised they would not nerf any bd in the middle of the season, but oops, sorry , I did it again "coincidentally"! Shame on you Blizzard.

    There is no really point to play that game. You must finish campaign which is repetitive and bad to reach rest of content which really does not exist.

    Diablo 4 left me unimpressed, lacking the spark that makes a game truly engaging. Its gameplay felt like a repetitive chore, failing to captivate my interest. The excitement and depth I anticipated were absent, leaving me with a sense of blandness. While some may find enjoyment, my experience was one of unmet expectations and a lack of the immersive qualities that make RPGs memorable.

    I really doubt that the game designers ever played the game before releasing the game. For example, it will take 5-30s after finishing the dungeon, what is the point?

    I know nobody cares, but ive been playing Diablo for over 23 years. If I were in a position to request a refund I would. You have a TERRIBLE product here and you should be ashamed.

I gave it an honest shot. I actually bought 3 copies of the game. One for myself, my partner, and one for PS5 for cross progression and crossplay. I played the betas, I played before season 1. 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.

If i was to rate my experience .... well i fell asleep gaming if you fall asleep it drops my score well below 30 percent played 5 hrs. maybe never started it up again game never should have costed 90 dollars Canadian the score would be different if it was a sub 40$ game or free to play with loot box mechanics tbh

Blizzard seems utterly uninterested in taking player feedback into account; instead, they appear to believe their alterations to the game are brilliant.

    Diablo 3 had rebirth. This allowed you to keep the same character. But resetting it to level 0 and starting the season. Redesigning a new character every time a season starts isn't interesting to me. What after 20 season I'll have 20 characters? I only want to manage 5 characters, one of each class.

I feel weak, I still get one shot in nightmare dungeons. Items do not feel exciting and I am usually addicted to games like this. Dungeons have ZERO appeal. Feels like a chore and not a game, and I quit Lost Ark for those same reasons.

    In D3 the items determined your build and you could easily respec abilities and paragon points. In D4, everything is backwards. The stash is too small, the dungeons are slow and tedious. Objectives and bosses are repetitive and awful. There is no party system to easily group up with strangers for adventure mode, clans are useless, not enough bosses and content for 50+. The visuals for the main story were good, but parts of the plot felt so weak. Side quests give zero xp. Overall a solid 2/5 for me.

    Also PLEASE fix the golbins so they are exciting like D3 and drop good loot, portals, different types etc. Very sad. :( I want exciting loot that drops and I can just wear and easily reroll stats without wasting all my money. I don't want to stare at stats and spend so much time crafting with aspects that are lame anyway. Cube was much better.

    Not great, not 100% terrible. While I enjoyed the game enough to finish the story, which was in my opinion at least more engaging than the story of Diablo 3. It kind of quickly loses out for not having much useful to do, no real improvements in gear, everything feeling like a drag, and I say that as a Diablo2 enjoyer who enjoys doing the same thing over and over and over.

    And that's not

    And that's not to mention how broken a lot of things are in general, like resistances not even working? Several design issues that don't seem to get an improvement. Control issues for PC, and from what I hear also control issues for console. Plus a weird chatwheel which might make sense on console, but why is it in a PC-game where I should be able to bind any of my keyboard keys? The loot and crafting system and progressing to become stronger, does not feel like its really working or making an impact, it becomes a drag to continue.

    I'm not too happy losing my HC barb due to the game silently disconnecting me, where everything kept on playing almost entirely as normal, and when you realize something is slightly off, its already too late and you're dead. I'm used to HC, used to losing characters to stupid things, in PoE I've at some point had lag issues killing off a character, but at least there you notice the lag, and decide to push on anyway, and fail. I did not however decrease my score over this, its just another thing showing how broken things are... Actually kind of happy my char died so I have a reason not to play this game. That being said, I didn't play season one, I didn't play the first nerf-patch.

    A lot of dumb kids just bombing the rating without even playing the game.
    The game overall is ok. You can definitely spend there few weeks-month by playing campaign and then exploring some endgame stuff to do until it starts getting boring. I had fun playing this amount of time so gaming is good.
    Rating it as 6, because game also has issues that needs to be solved.

    This game was released unfinished, unbalanced, full of bugs, and severely underwhelming for a AAA game company who already has experience in ARPG's.

    I honestly feel terrible for some people working hard to make this a good game, because the art is honestly good. The endgame is abysmal though. Please just wait to release a full game next time. RIP my $70.

    I have purchased from Activision-Blizzard 5000 platinum (50 euros worth) for Diablo IV. I have bought something that I realized after a few minutes it doesn't look as I expected in-game. I have asked for a refund ONLY for that cosmetic (2200 platinum, not money) back, so I can use the platinum on something I eventually like. I have been denied the refund, because:

    '... cosmetics that are purchased with in-game currency, such as Platinum, are non-refundable. However, those cosmetics can be refunded in case they were purchased with real money!' - guess what: the option to purchase from the shop via 'real money' is not existent, and the platinum is purchased with 'real money'. Being treated like this after I've given them 'real money' and didn't ask back for it, but for the platinum, is disgusting.

    Old review:

    People have lost it ...

    This is a great game, even with it's few flaws compared to the big picture - in story, and in bugs.

    Even if I think the game is a 8.5, I had to rate it 10 to balance the reviews of these hating people... the game is fun, and at the moment fair, nothing is pay to win, and the amount of work required to create it is immense. I can't believe how ungrateful people are. A game such as Diablo Immoral which aims to get every drop of $ from you should get a pss low rating, but this game is wonderful in so many regards. Wake up people, and appreciate what is good, for if you will keep hating, it will disappear.

    - build on an epic francize with lots of lore and interesting background
    - classes are in a good direction but lacking in build diversity (compared to diablo 3 it is a step back)

    Bad:
    - sad writing of story, its seen better days with regards to storytelling and this is the least worst thing.
    - lots of bugs still blocking progression, day 1 quest bug that is still not fixed.
    - unbalanced leveling experience with several progression walls (yes, several, not 1 or 2).
    - 80 to 10 frame drops out of nowhere with latest drivers (not running on the best video card tbh but if it can produce a steadily 60-80 for at least 80% of the time, the drops are irregularities)
    - features feel outdated, the grinding game is too strong and no incentive to come back
    - no point in continuing because there are too many things wrong with the game

    Worst bit is that after a month of break away from the game to give it time to stop disappointing it hasn't made much progress. 1 month of no real tangible improvement in a 2 mo old game, feels abandoned by devs only to have leads come up on stage to promise things.

    I really wish the best in terms of improvements, my frustration comes from the love I have for the francize and genre.

    Blizzard apparently released a buggy, unfinished, unpolished product and then starts nerfing indiscriminently without even understanding or listenig to the extremely unhappy playerbase.

    A $70 commercial for Blizzards battle pass and shop. - main game has no valuable content, only in Battle Pass and in-game purchase - in-game purchases are more expensive than $20
    - they forces you to create a new character, beat the +30 hrs campaign again to have the chance to participate in the season. - repetitive content with only a few different bosses and unfun repetitive gameplay.

    Oh, behold the masterpiece that is Diablo 4, a veritable symphony of a game, tailored exclusively for the elite, the triumphant, the apex predators of existence - successful hardcore adults. Only those whose bank accounts are weightier than their sense of enjoyment need apply.

    Oh, behold the masterpiece that is Diablo 4, a veritable symphony of a game, tailored exclusively for the elite, the triumphant, the apex predators of existence - successful hardcore adults. Only those whose bank accounts are weightier than their sense of enjoyment need apply.

    Behold as the game diligently undergoes perpetual renovations, a virtual utopia where every bug is lovingly squashed, every wrinkle smoothed out. What could be more thrilling than a game that gets frequent facelifts? After all, who needs to have fun when you can be endlessly entranced by the riveting process of bug-fixing?

    But hold your horses, thrill-seekers! If your idea of gaming is even remotely related to "fun," tread no further. The developers have declared it themselves, with a straight face no less – "it is not fun." Clearly, we've transcended such trivial desires. Games aren't meant to be enjoyable; they're meant to be the very air we breathe, the immersive cocoon that cocoons us from the mundanity of reality.

    And speaking of time, fret not, for Diablo 4 is here to suck every last ounce of it from your life. A leisurely horse ride? A simple exit from a dungeon? Each act, a luxurious indulgence, costing you the precious currency of existence: time. But rejoice! For as a member of the prosperous elite, you have time to spare, and what better way to squander it than in the throes of Diablo 4's meticulous attention to tedium?

    Forsooth, this game isn't for the riffraff; it's a sanctuary for the opulent. If your bank balance resembles a hamster wheel rather than a mountain of gold, avert your eyes and scurry away. But if you're a bonafide member of the elite, buckle up! Diablo 4 beckons you into its leisurely embrace, a tortoise-paced odyssey that'll make even the slowest snail seem like a speeding bullet.

    Fun? Pshaw! Fun is for the plebeians. Go, amuse yourself with mere LEGO blocks or the frivolous trifles of a Nintendo Switch. Leave the weighty matters to the connoisseurs of discernment, those who understand that an impeccable taste is worth its weight in gold - Diablo 4, a flawless masterpiece, deserving of an unchallenged 10 out of 10. No need for questions, for the answers are written in the golden script of success.

    Repetitive gameplay and a tedious grind with little rewards.

    What a sad excuse for a game.

    I should have known better after being burned so many times by Blizz and how poorly they have treated their games as of recently yet I was dumb and nostalgia drove me to purchase. I made a character to about level 60 and then I was completely burnt out. Its the same thing over and over and over again. There is no variety in the end game activities at all.

Billion dollar "AAA" studio can't even get it right.

    So I dropped it hoping that when season 1 started it would bring with it fresh new mechanics, different bosses, new endgame content.. Well... We all know how that turned out.

    What a complete disappointment. With D4 being released into a timeframe with other massive releases at least we get to experience proper, well designed and finished games this summer. Blizz deserves all the hate they are getting and maybe just maybe they can figure their **** out and produce something with substance which will take years, if at all. The only good thing about the game was the campaign/cinematics but then you go look at the predatory microtransaction page and see what they are charging and how much of a rip off it is and then even the fun feeling of that goes away because a 100 dollar game is still trying to suck every last dollar out of you.

    I regret ever buying this dumpster fire. I am actually getting mad as I type this out that is how pissed I am at myself for giving them money. Worst part of it is that they don't care. If anyone wants to play a proper ARPG, go play Path Of Exile, Last Epoch or Grim Dawn. Don't waste your time and money with a company that does not care about its player base.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great game. Probably the best in the Diablo franchise. Much better than the trash known as Diablo 3. I never give any game a perfect score, but as far as Diablo games go this is as near to perfection as the series has come. I would give it an 8 if not for the required internet connection which drops it 1 point solid 7/10 at least. I haven't played too deep into the campaign yet, but there is enough exploration, side quests, and dungeons to keep you busy for hours. The game rewards exploration and completing side quests/ dungeons. The side quests are my favorite addition as they are all dark and gritty while being compact yet in depth and enjoyable sub stories encapsulated within the main plot. To give an idea about the amount of exploration and reward that can happen here. I have barely completed act 1 and am already level 47, I have just barely started exploring the area to the northwest of the beginning region. This is from doing side quests and optional dungeons. A huge amount of work has gone into world building and emersion. The graphics are beautiful and don't resemble the comic book style of WOW and Diablo 3, which is a huge plus. Alot of the WOW DNA that contaminated Diablo 3 Is gone and replaced with all new mechanics. The leveling up system feels more akin to Diablo 2 than Diablo 3. The game as a whole feels like a sequel to Diablo 2 rather than Diablo 3 and this is also a huge source of brownie points. As a Diablo fan that has been with the series since the first game port on the PS1, this is a must play.

    I see alot of hate for this game saying the patches made it unplayable or something. My response to this is get better. You can respec your class at any time for a cost. My necromancer has made it through the patches unphased ( I'm playing a summoner). Currently enjoying earning the blood steed in an unpopulated server.

    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.
