    For me the story is not worth the 70USD, it can be good but to sell me a full priced game with battle pass, ingame store or skins and add to that possible DLC or classes .... Stupid server crashes for hardcore players, a P2W release event "with early access" is fine they want to make money as a service but don't sell me the **** skins at that price being a full price AAA game.

    It was good old-fashioned, demon-slaying fun until the devs thought it was a good idea to lobotomize every class mere days before the season launch. News flash blizzard; the game doesn't last longer if the mobs have inexhaustible heath bars, it just makes the game tedious and nigh impossible to enjoy. To make matters even worse, you have the gall to demand money for a premium season trackIt was good old-fashioned, demon-slaying fun until the devs thought it was a good idea to lobotomize every class mere days before the season launch. News flash blizzard; the game doesn't last longer if the mobs have inexhaustible heath bars, it just makes the game tedious and nigh impossible to enjoy. To make matters even worse, you have the gall to demand money for a premium season track without adding some decent content? You think adding a hanful of new, yet awful, items and some cosmetics will loosen our pursestrings? Have fun suckling the last bit of milk out of the average idiot's teat as you continue your malpractices.
    Even after all these years I'm appalled at how you people make the dumbest decisions. First you thought implementing automated matchmaking in d2r instead of familiarised lobbies was a great idea and now this? I'll tell you, your studio truly has a knack for ruining things that started out well. Choke on it, you dimwitted c***s. Last time I will be buying one of your cursed products.

    By the way your ladder launch is a f***ing joke. Login queues are laughable at best and when you manage to invoke the patience to somehow get in, the game crashes during every loading screen. I'd rather be trapped in a blizzard than play your steaming pile of s*** games any longer.    … Expand

    Delay Season 1 and fix the game, alot of stuff in the Season 1 patch notes are just bad and not fun to play.

    Played around 100+ hours. have 80lvl necro and 50 lvl barb...
    Lags and disconnects is all you've got. I cannot recommend this game right now. Maybe after few seasons and the return all "good" mechanics from D3 as features for D4...
    Blizzards is not the same anymore. Thanks Activision for that

    One wonders why Blizzard keeps coming up with such insane ideas. How to make a Season 1 completely unattractive before it even starts. If you still want players in Season 2, you should listen to the players now. Microsoft is pretty stupid to buy such a company as Activision Blizzard.

    Game had great potential, but recent changes for season 1 show development is completely incompetent. Don't waste your money.

    They took a solid core and absolutely decimated it with the last patch. Basically 40% less damage, Mobs have more health and they reward almost 50% less experience. All a money grab for seasons and lack of end game content.

    One of the Worst Launches in Blizzard History and By far THE WORST launch of the Diablo franchise, The game is clearly an 80$ beta that should have been pushed back by 6 months minimum or actually given to a dev who respects and understands the franchise let alone gaming in general...

NO respect for my time NO respect for my DOLLARS SPENT cash grab after cash grab has me really begging you all to stop supporting this kind of garbage over and over and over again tell blizzard how garbage this game is AND STOP! accepting LESS for MORE... they copy paste from Path of Exile (a free to play) yet they dont even take its best aspects or adjust for the fact this is an 80$ game (if playing online... Really sad to see my childhood basically exploited and parted out for money. Lets base it just off the BUGS ALONE.... the amount of time I have had to do certain things to get rid of bugs ***SPOILER***** Having to remount my horse over and over and over again or having to take my gear off and put them back on so my skills would work resist still DOES NOTHING and treasure goblins just go poof after killing them half the time and thats about 1/3rd the entire list of time wasting frustrating bugs... for those who say this is the best Diablo game so far you clearly never played DIABLO 2 and/or LOD because this is a dumpster fire no matter who released it or what franchise it is ITS AN 80$ BETA no matter how you slice it.… Expand

    Diablo IV looks great but it doesn't feel great to play.

    This is an ACTION RPG with slow paced action.

    It's a LOOT hunter with boring loot.

    An MMO with no social aspects.

    A dungeon crawler that feels more like a game a of fetch the round peg and put it in the round hole.

    Destroyed the game in one patch. All they needed to do was have some QOL with the nerfs to not shoot themselves in the foot. So out of touch with the community.

    The game could have been good. But the devs are obviously not interested in delivering a good game.

    They say they need 4 MONTHS!!! to fix BASIC bugs and missing features like : Not enough inventory space. I am sure it's totally normal for a multi billion dollar comapny to need 4 months for a little fix. This game wasn't made for you. Wasn't made for us. It was made to make as much money with season passes as possible. And to make sure we all play the season and need the season pass, everything else gets a nerf. I pray Microsoft fires every single Blizzard manager.    … Expand

    The underlying technology for this game, the game world, the story and basic design are excellent. But the game fundamentally does not work. Unfortunately, the developers seem more interested in slowing down progress so they can sell you a battlepass to speed it back up. Do not buy.

    I miss the old blizzard. To hell with you Bobby Kotick. I don't know how it is possible to ruin such a franchise as Warcraft or Diablo. But I guess instead of pay developers you need absurd amount of money for yourself. Greedy bastard

    They did that thing where they keep making the game progressively worse to try and retain a player base, because they have no confidence players will develop loyalty on their own. This is no longer the game I bought and it has lost any semblance of enjoyability.

    Listen...this game is simply not fun. The level scaling ruins any enjoyment going to different areas of the game, as all enemies are the same difficulty everywhere.

    The loot is an absolute bore finding gear doesnt feel good.

    So much potential is wasted by nonsense mechanics and bad game design.
    Only the grafik, voices and cutscene are well done.

    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]
