    TLDR: Its a Diablo III reskin with scantly more depth. Wait till on sale.

    The Good: - Its a Diablo III reskin - "same" gameplay with different skills and bonuses. Its fun, I put in over 80 hours, so I paid approximately $1.00/hr for fun. I may return in a couple of seasons, so my value goes up. - I thoroughly enjoyed season one... "The Barber", nuf said. The Bad: - At about    TLDR: Its a Diablo III reskin with scantly more depth. Wait till on sale.

    The Good:
    - Its a Diablo III reskin - "same" gameplay with different skills and bonuses. Its fun, I put in over 80 hours, so I paid approximately $1.00/hr for fun. I may return in a couple of seasons, so my value goes up.
    - I thoroughly enjoyed season one... "The Barber", nuf said.

    The Bad:
    - At about level 85ish, the game loses its purpose and gets real boring and overly grindy.
    - Legendaries and Ancestrals need a name change to Powerball and MegaMillions. You have to go through 100's of them to find something to tolerate.
    - There is a LOT of stuff that is unexplained by the game. You must go find Youtubers to teach you otherwise you end up with 20 levels after you unlocked it, you will find things like the 's' button is a key part of a build or that power level, except for 700 and above, means nothing at all or that... list could go on for four or five paragraphs.
    - Only two or three side quests have characters and stories that are worth reading, and while we are at it (finger pointed at the whole industry), I am the most powerful wizard in the world...I defeated what heaven couldn't and your idea of great side quests are make them an errand boy *sigh*. If unlocking paragon points wasn't attached to them, I would never look at them again, as they don't effect jack.
    - Microtransactions, although not nearly as bad as 3 was in the beginning, if you want it, one complete outfit can cost you as much as the game.
    - If you don't pay for the season, your playability will be very limited.

    The Ugly
    - My biggest beef with Diablo IV is that in eleven years of development only this much got done? I expected more than a reskin with new skills which makes Diablo IV an eleven year old "Madden" game. You know the one, where EA updates a roster, adds a couple words and charges $70 every year. It took Blizzard 11 years to do what EA does every year.
    - Multiiplayer is super lacking. No hopping into random "Riifts" or interacting at all, in fact, when you see someone cross your path, you end up going the other way because it hurts you. My question is, what's the point of clans or being online-all-the-time if there is no good way to interact (other than emote "look" five million times). I joined two separate clans and unless you Discord, there is no simple way to hang out and join parties. Again, a D3 reskin.
    -Im old, I have seen and played all four iterations of Diablo on day one. If you look at the base, you will see a trend of most saying D2 was the best iteration, and with that I agree. Why is it we keep getting further from the best iteration rather than build upon that one? Oh yeah, that model didn't have season passes, microtransactions and was heading in a fantastic direction that we could all see.    … Expand

They know their game is **** but they don´t give a crap and they dont even try to hide it. This is not acceptable in 2023. These ass clowns should be fired on the spot instead of laughing in their customers faces. Need more? Well, nerfs to classes beyond being able to be played, senseless nerfs of cooldowns, even of qol aspects. They dont wanna make the game fun for us, they want to force us being as long as possibe in this **** and have NO FUN at all. These guys clearly never played their own game or have no idea how games like this are supposed to be played. I regret buying this crap and clearly the will NEVER see one more cent from me.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game was okay in the beginning. The story was okay. The end game is tediously boring. I've reached level 98 and don't even want to bother getting to 100. It's just not worth the time. It's too repetitive. I'm lvl 98 wearing lvl 60 n 70 gear and don't even need to change it. There are no real rewards for reaching max level so why bother? Once you reach lvl 60-70 and get ancestral gear there really isn't any point in leveling up. Unless it's just to run repetitive and boring nightmare dungeons. I've started playing other way older Rpgs again. That's how boring Diablo 4 has gotten. Season is no better. I've reached lvl 78 and just can't be bothered to level any higher. What's the point? Also, spending 20 mill to reroll one thing on one item is super annoying. And also I've played over 500 hours of this game and not gotten even one Uber unique. I don't really care about them but still. Doesn't that drop rate seem just a little too low?… Expand

    If looks were enough this game would be a solid 10.
    I can't in good conscience rate it a zero as it was fun for the first day and a half before I started running into all the tedium. That said, this isn't some 12 hour action adventure romp where a day and a half encapsulated the entire experience.

    Ausencia total de dopamina, ni satisfactorio, ni divertido, ni entretenido. El pastiche perfecto de mecánicas erróneas de juegos centrados en la monetización agresiva sumado a un core que hace aguas por todos lados y una historia que parece sacada del juego más lagrimoso de Annapurna.

    Un despropósito de juego hecho sin ganas que marca el inicio del final de la saga Diablo.

    All the problems have been well described by others already, because they're painfully obvious. Soulless gameplay, loot, and a UI that's stunningly poorly designed.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. had to change my thoughts as of recent patch, 1.1.1

    staight to the main points i have:
    pros
    -the campaign i throughly enjoyed.
    -the boss appearances from previous diablo games
    -skill tree system mostly reminds me of diablo 2
    -able to respect
    -cinamatics
    -length of campaign
    -ability to skip campaign when creating new characters
    -seasonal content, as long as it's just cosmetics on the battle pass

    cons:
    -paragon board resets are more time consuming than resetting character skills when trying different builds
    -lack of public test realm at this time. would be great to have the playerbase try out a patch in development and give feedback
    -at this time lack of having the option to re-fight campaign bosses
    -patch implantation. the communication of patch has gotten better but it still can't go into the pros slot. of course characters got some damage and defense buffs, however depending on the nightmare dungeon you run after the density buff, the buffs to characters can be noticed or feel non-existant(at lease in my experience from what feels like 90% of the time i generate what feels like infinite crowd controlled mobs or mobs that deal high elemental damage for there is near to non-existant elemental defense which won't be fixed until season 2 last time i checked.)
    -getting infinitely crowd controlled by the mobs. most guides say just get more croud control duration reduction on gear. news flash, it does not help if you fight a mob and end up repeatly dazed, confused, frozen(and in some cases one shotted after being frozen), feared or worst case all of the above at the same time. when i enoucter that situtation with my break free ability on cooldown i just drop my controller and grab a drink before picking it up again to revive my character, just being honest
    -elemental resists(fire, ice, lighting). they are currently none existant. i doub that potions that claim to give them even work. as mentioned earlier, unless I'm wrong; the last time i checked elemental resistances won't be fixed until season 2.
    -being raw dogged by poison damage.
    -lack of build diversity meta's. there was a ranking of "top tier" builds after some recent patches and one of the character classes didn't even rank in any tier let alone F tier    … Expand

    I did not have high expectations for this game and maybe that's why I liked it overall. Initial release has small issues, which is normal for any new game, but the team managed to deliver on many things for this game, keeps listening to the community and fixes many problems as they occur. It could be that patch certifications for consoles are slowing the updates, but hopefully Sony and MSI did not have high expectations for this game and maybe that's why I liked it overall.

It could be that patch certifications for consoles are slowing the updates, but hopefully Sony and MS will bend and grant them faster, so everyone can enjoy a better game. What I liked the most is the instant action right after character creation, which is also typical for the Diablo franchise. No hourly long setting up and pointless talk to NPC. Action is well balanced with story and leaves room for the imagination to go wild. That said: graphics are excellent, sound is superb, story is amazing, character classes are true to the franchise, character creation is best so far compared to other Diablo games, build opportunities are many and problematic builds disappear patch after patch, combat is admirably well done, though replayability in endgame could be improved, controller does not support haptics and adaptive triggers, yet, so I hope these are coming. I find this game simple, yet genius and genre-defining. Typical for the company behind it - making bold and risky moves, people usually fail to initially comprehend. Not quite happy with the high prices of the shop, though that does not interest me much. Looking forward to playing more seasons and expansions! More intriguing content is needed, so hopefully the developer manages to find the right talent to continue the Diablo legacy. It will always have a special place in my heart as I am sure it also has for many others. Seeing a lot of extremely negative reviews here tells me people have a very poor understanding and sense of appreciation to what they are given and perhaps that's what they also gain in life. I enjoy the game and will keep on playing it.… Expand

    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.
