    Where to begin? I’ve been invested and have all the Diablo games from my childhood to D3. Diablo 4 is by far the worse game in the series.

    I created a Rouge for Season 1 leveled it to level 23 and deleted it I can’t continue further. The game is boring, itemization is boring, legendaries all look the same and are boring.

    Uber uniqueness (you know the 6 ultra rares) that have an impossible chance of dropping are discouraging. I really want to like this game I bough the ultimate addition.

    The collectors addition doesn’t even include the game it’s a money grab. Maybe by season 10 (like 5 years away) it might be good but I just can’t continue to play this dull and uninspiring title so disappointing.

    I had my doubts and really wish I didn’t pay the $134 Canadian for a second grade product. The collectors addition is a money grab by the developers it does not come with the game it’s sold separately and it’s too expensive.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not sure what moron gave this a thumbs up for launch. Excellent cinematics and cool marketing, thanks for showing us Megan Fox's **** that no one asked for.

    I feel bad for the people that actually worked on this game. I can just imagine the cringe the programmers had to go through while taking orders from their stupid **** bosses. Way to ruin a franchise Blizzard.

    Do you just hire the most 'progressive', 'diverse' people you could find to absolutely ruin a name that your CORE audience has held very dear to them? This is probably the biggest flop in history, and I'm ashamed for you.

    I get you guys are a cash machine, anyone with a single brain cell recognizes you guys are just a **** company. Please don't continue ruining something that was created from brilliance and dedication from the D1, D2 days. Half of these morons weren't even born these games came out, why in the actual **** would you trust them to build a game like this? Really poor judgement with whoever was in charge of ANY decision made on this actual turd you call a game. **** you blizzard. Like to the core of your company, absolute waste of money and my time.

    I'm out, won't be playing ever again. And will actively tell people not to touch this. Hell, i'll even pay people to NOT play it.

    Plenty of mediocre content that goes stale quickly. Prioritizes quantity over quality. It's also a live service (online only/aka subscription) which limits playability and the provider (Blizzard) has not yet added any quality content. Crashes regularly on console. If a streaming service constantly crashes and has no interesting content you cancel the subscription.

    The whole game is just a repetitive grind with very little pay-off. The latest update only makes this worse. Over-hyped, glossy but little focus on the overall game balance and experience. This isn’t the game you’re looking for.

My experience in the game was okay if not good before this , I ignored the lazy/sad/CHEESY excuse of "difficulty" that is insane crowd control mechanics that enemies in the world implemented on players making a smooth play through quite challenging when you're constantly feared, frozen/chilled, stunned, pinned in a corner from stone walls/lightning pillars erected by enemies while standing in a puddle of poison helpless, getting one shot by after/on death effects unseen due to screen clutter . However it's quite difficult to ignore the fact when I log in and do a nightmare dungeon I'd normally run through and I'm doing half the damage I normally did while also taking bucket loads of more damage and getting less experience. On top of that making it harder to enchant good stats on gear by adding an acknowledged broken stat like resistance to the possible rolls on gear? Why waste my time on a game with devs that say they are "listening" to the community but push through terrible patches such as this. Hopefully it levels out in time but until then I am putting the game down and venturing else where.… Expand

    they opted to destroy the fun of us players, putting nerfs. I lost the will to play because I wasted hours fixing items that are no longer needed. I'm a sorcerer, the most nerfed class in the game, it made me lose the desire to play, because now I have to start over to find new items. It is not possible that on their whim I wasted useless hours. shame!

    Absolutely trash game after new patch. Was getting trash gear before szn 1 and could barely stay in tier 4 now I just get tossed around because my gear is so bad and cause of the patch. (I’m level 73) haven’t got better gear since level 50. Done playing, I got better things to do. Campaign was nice tho ngl

    Dont buy the game.
    That 20-40 hours is not worth 70 euros.
    The developers do not respect: -you -your time -your effort -your opinion -your ideas -the genre -the community -the game Making ALL CLASSES DO 40% LESS DAMAGE to slow them down. Adding the fack that your hp has also been reduced, while the enemy's were rised. With a nice finishing touch of giving you less experience    Dont buy the game.

    This is not a game for the greedy f*****ng Battles Pass b*****t.
    Keep that in games where I DID NOT PAY 70 EUROS IN THE FIRST PLACE.
    Are you seriously expecting me to (with the all the above mentioned) that I am going to pay you another 25 euros (at every season), so that I can use the items THAT I EARNED!?!?

    Basically you pay 70euros for a game that requires you to start a new character every 3 months, otherwise you wont be able to enjoy the new content. I dont have the time to grind 8 hours a day, i built my character to lvl 78 on what is now eternal realm, which became useless with the season 1. Now i am indirectly "forced" to start over, maybe even pay the battle pass to enjoy whats new.Basically you pay 70euros for a game that requires you to start a new character every 3 months, otherwise you wont be able to enjoy the new content.

I understand that some errors need to be corrected, but this time, the changes were made on such a large scale without any prior notice. I feel cheated because I have been following the rules set forth by DIABLO 4 while playing the game. I have invested a lot of time and effort into building my character, and even outside of the game, I have spent a lot of time studying the game content. However, Blizzard Entertainment has not taken into account the feelings of the players. By making a large number of changes to the game all at once, it has rendered all of my efforts useless. The designers of DIABLO 4 only care about their own needs, without seriously considering the needs of consumers and players, resulting in serious mistakes. This is not the first time that DIABLO 4 has made such mistakes. DIABLO 3 has made many mistakes in the past, and I am very disappointed in DIABLO.… Expand

    This is the typical Blizzard way of teaching you how to play games; they simply don't care about the players' experience. I suspect they don't even play their own developed games.

    Stupid ever game design.
    Not fun, Blizzard forgot the core value of the Diablo series.
    The patch is simply to increase your game time without giving you more rewards. I hope Blizzard sees this: The Diablo 4 design dept should all be fired, they don't know how to design a fun game, and they don't even play the game. If they do, they should have known that the patch change they made is    Stupid ever game design.

    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]
