    遊戲沒料 團隊只會餵你吃屎拖長遊戲節奏
    我們覺得玩家刷太爽 削減怪物數量 削減玩家強度 削減玩家防禦 削減玩家經驗

    One of the worst patches i've ever seen in all my 20 or so years of gaming, filled with anti-fun bias, overnerf to already weak enough class solely because of populariity and overall player progress being heavily targeted, on an already overpriced game with lackluster endgame. and this is a game where the endgame and seasonal content is SUPPOSED to be the main selling point.

    Congrats to blizzard ! managed to get achieve a gaming experience that's a downgrade from free games like poe, and downgrade from their own previous title that is diablo3. absolutely impressive, astonishing, i've never seen a company that's so utterly so dedicated to failure and insatisfaction of their costumers, i hope the devs all have fun with the game now as it seems that's who they made the game for. Absolute waste of money, don't buy this crap.    … Expand

    Honestly this game lost its appeal. It was ruined by 1.1. It's not the same old game you loved, It is a service meant to manipulate you and exploit you. The end game was lackluster at best, and the finest parts are few and likely nerfed by now.

    These companies buy the games we love and ruin them. I wish I never bought this, and I want a refund. The level scaling means your growth doesnt matter. They want to turn every game into something you cannot own and that you pay to win

    If they lack their ability, they should improve it through talking with consumers. They don't want to work, so they just make our characters stupid in an easy way. Brizzard worse than indie games.

    Activision Blizzard initially delivered a strong shell of a game, with plenty of room to build out and a lot of potential.

They gave us the same lip service they do with all of their games, and we all believed it. As soon as the first patch came around, we realized the obvious: this was a franchise cash grab from developers doing what shareholders want that do not play their own game. They essentially proved they are trying to make a loot based game without a rewarding and complex loot system, An action RPG without action, and an MMO without a strong community or social system. The lack of end game content should have been addressed with the first season update, but instead they've decided to neuter the few things that felt good in their game in favor of increasing the tediousness of basic tasks to encourage future battle pass transactions and other forms of monetization.

    ARPGs generally have depth, with content that can be fun and challenging for everyone from the weekend warrior to the hardcore completionists. instead, they've decided to make the difficulty so artificial that even their most committed core like content creators, the ones who stand to profit off of the mutual success of the game, are pointing and laughing.    … Expand

    This is the most evident display of out of touch changes I have ever witnessed in my 25+ years of gaming. I can not wait to hear the excuses for their lack of urgency. 1 hour to hotfix Shako, potential days to fix cinders. God forbid we exit a dungeon with a 3 second cast. I feel like I am taking crazy pills!

    Spent hundreds of hours carefully building a very unique character with hundreds of aspects to consider, only to have the developers reduce and skew tiny data points to the point that my barb is weaker, less of a cohesive build, and basically not fun anymore.

    0 efforts towards what the community wants while destroying game mechanics values and making the game even worse 10 times than before the update!

    Don't waste your time on a game run by developers that do everything they can to extract money from you as a consumer while simultaneously going out of their way to make things unnecessarily tedious, slow, and frustrating for you as the player. I've never seen such a disconnect from developer to playerbase in my entire life.

    Patch 1.1.0 (Season 1 "pre-patch") is woefully blind to the community and state of the game.

Games are meant to be fun, not a chore - and you've somehow both realized that (previous patches) and blindly ignored it (1.1.0). You had a great platform to build on, and 1.1.0 is a regression beyond the issues present at launch.

    I will never again pre-purchase anything from Blizzard knowing there are season/dlc mechanics that they will be "balancing". This is fundamentally a PvE game, with PvP and grouping mechanisms being an afterthought, and you're trying to balance this around competitive gameplay when there simply is none and that is not the point - at all - of an ARPG.

    Your parents would be disappointed in your decisions here.    … Expand

    After this last patch, I just uninstalled the game, and maybe in a year or more I might check YouTube to see what the current status at that time is.

    Devs for this game must be on crack or something. Seriously, their motto is "Fun not allowed".

    It's absolutely abysmal that they took absolutely no pointers from the history of Diablo 3. They had an absolutely solid formula they could've went with, and they chose not to. Did it need to be Diablo 3: Enhanced Edition? No. But there's so many bad changes and takes that its baffling. Everything is slow. Everything is a slog. Anything fun is taken away and you're told you shouldn't expect anything else (looking at you, patch 1.1).

    One would think a game that has a cosmetic shop would put more effort in. It should translate, right? Make people love your game so they're willing to spend more money. No, they took the opposite approach. Make people take longer to play the game, make things more tedious. That should make them more likely to purchase, right? Wrong. People are quitting, and people are doing this.

    Every member of the development team deserves to be canned.    … Expand

    I can somewhat deal with an "MMO"ARPG that has barely any social features but patch 1.1 is the worst patch in the history of patches. The devs have no content for us so they nerfed everything to make the game slower, Friday's dumpster fire will just be 40 minutes of diablo immortal updates, and 20 minutes of them telling us they know best. Game uninstalled. Will not spend another $ on D4.

    I can't even play the game with the memory leak issues. It just constantly crashes. They have acknowledged the issue and said they might have a fix in the future....with no date. They had their first big patch, no news on it and they are taking the game in a horrible direction. Save your money, don't be a fool like me seeing the franchise name Diablo and thinking this is Blizzard North.

    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]
