    L'histoire est vraiment mais vraiment baclée.
    Il y a de nombreuses incohérences. :
    - Pourquoi tel personnage traque tel autre ? - Pourquoi tel personnage ne meurt pas quand un démon la possède (décidément toujours la même, sans compter son inutilité dans le Lore) ? - Pourquoi ... cette fin, sans aucune explication, par ce perso qui au final sort de nullepart ? - Pourquoi... etc etc    L'histoire est vraiment mais vraiment baclée.

    - Pourquoi... etc etc etc
    L'histoire aurait pu être bonne: la guerre entre Lilith et Inarius, mais elle a été mal écrite, mal racontée, limite nanardesque (Inarius bordel...)
    Heureusement certains persos sont bien écrits (les 2 Horadrims avec leurs forces et leurs faiblesses humaines, ainsi que Elias qui agit "logiquement")

    En ce qui concerne le gameplay (finalement le plus important pour 80% des joueurs) et bien moi j'aime bien. Il y a des changements par rapport à D3 mais ils sont les bienvenus
    Le monde ouvert est également cohérent et donne un sentiment de liberté.
    Pour le reste c'est du craft et des heures +++ à passer pour obtenir du matos, on aimera ou pas mais au moins la durée de vie sera au RDV

    A noter également que excepté hier pendant 1h30, les serveurs ont tenu le coup

    Enfin contrairement à ce qui est dit, il n'y a pas de microtransaction honteuses comme dans Immortal. ici il n'y a que du skin, en tout cas pour le moment.

    Je mets donc 7 (à cause du Lore qui m'a décu)    … Expand

    The bad:
    * While graphics and audio are certainly very high-quality art and sound feels soulless as if done by someone with lots of money and a spreadsheet but who doesn't understand how to create a meaningful computer game world.
    * Absolutely horrible level-scaling. Whenever you gain a new level up every zone in the world immediately adjusts to your new level. It is a really bad experience which makes you feel like treading water instead of developing that progressively more powerful character.
    * The game mechanics feel very limited. There are only very few ways to customize a build and everything feels "on rails". After around level 30 you are just putting skills in +1% perks. Other ARPGs are lightyears ahead here.
    * Most smaller quests are just "fetch X" quests and get boring very quickly. Even the main story is barely meeting the mark.
    The other stuff:
    * Microtransactions are bad blah blah, but D4 can be played just fine without every looking at them, and they are really not the reason why this game is just not that great.    … Expand

    Diablo4 scores points in audio and visual. They nail it, it's blizzard, it's the quality we would expect.
    They also score some points on character customization, though they also severely lose points here because there's 1 meta for each character, and blizzards "play how you want to play" motto falls short on your build just not being able to progress. "get good" should never get in the way of just have fun. Even build % charts show 90% of each class using that one ability, there's literally no other way to get by. They shouldnt nerf these builds but bring all the other abilities up to match them.

    The gameplay is fluid (for the most part). Mounts are janky and get stuck on the smallest rock, and there's many times you'll be in battle only to have your character stop moving and attacking because he's clipped through the floor sightly and you have to dash to fix yourself.

    What hurts the game is it's repetitiveness. Sure, that's what this game is going to have, but they literally have 120 dungeons, and there's maybe 3 or 4 styles of dungeons with 5 or 6 objectives, and 5 or 6 rotating bosses, leaving the game severely hurting next to the large random rifts that their previous d3 rifts provided.
    Replayability is possible moving to a new character, but the game severely punishes this in a way with the amount of storage space you have. I personally have an endgame character with all 4 stash tabs mixed with "class specific" legendaries, so starting a new character would literally mean destroying most of that equipment, or going back to the diablo2 days where you have to make a character specifically to hold gear. Also, when it comes to loot, they say they want legendary loot to be rare so it feels like you've accomplished something when you find a piece, but i believe they should go back to diablo3's roots on this, and if a legendary drops you should be able to trade with anyone in your party, as i run with another player on the same class we just have different builds, it sucks to be in a party and something drop epic for them that you also helped work for, but you're missing that party trade timer of old.

    In summary, diablo4 is a well built game, but i feel like by the time season 1 rolls around, if the rewards arent great, i dont see many people wanting to start the game over again. The repetitive cycle on the game is very unforgiving like others of it's class. Only time will tell, and i hope in the coming months i'll be able to return and push my score up a little bit, but ultimately..... diablo2 > diablo3 > diablo4. Not a good trend.    … Expand

On the flip side, the monsters just become reskins of other monsters very early in the game, there is a variety of around 10 dungeon bosses that you will fight over and over again if you want to clear every dungeon at least once, and I can't even count the times I had to "free 6 prisoners" or "find the mechanical stone" in a dungeon in order to advance to the boss room.

    On the good side again, character development and builds are amazing, there is a ton of options to choose from, you can re-do the skills easily and switch completely between different builds mid-game if you want to try another fighting style, the skills feel tight and impactful, and the combination between skills, equipment and play style works perfectly. Then again, some classes are just significantly weaker than others. Necromancers, rogues and sorcerers are massively OP if you know how to build characters, while the Barbarian is okay and the Druid looks and plays horribly.

    The quests are fun, there's a bunch of interesting small story threads, the NPC dialogue in the towns is interesting, in general the world building is fantastic, but then again the open world structure of the game puts you off the main story, often taking away the tension and energy that has been built up during story scenes. The introduction and the first few quests, where the game is still linear, feel so amazing, and then it gets more and more washed down by an overwhelming amount of blue exclamation marks.

    I love this game, that's why I gave it an 8, but there are many, many points that especially long-time fans of the Diablo franchise will definitely hate.    … Expand

    What I feel the game has build differently and have some aspect from D2 in terms of leveling. The game stepped up from hack and slash element to semi-opened world with concept of MMORPG. Overall the game looks great and can't wait the season theme how it looks like.

    Just bought it and almost finished the campaign. As I loved the dark style of D2 and never really got into D3 cause of the comic-like art, D4 has all I wished for.
    Can't say anything about endgame but people whining a lot here, when there is still time for Blizzard to improve things.
    At first was too easy, now too much nerfed. They won't be satisfied whatever happens next.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. An improvement from all they did wrong with Diablo3 but D3 brought the franchise so much back that even a step forward is still far behind what it should be.

    They didn’t took any risk

    - itemization: bland, soulless, boring
    - story: decent until your character took the damn stupid decision to refuse Lilith offer
    - campaign: so many unskippable dialogues… escort mission and low mob density
    - skill system: boring and limited. The 4basic, 4 core system makes it have max 1-2 decent build per class. There is no possible theorycrafting or diversity possible. The generator/spender system has been a franchise killer

    Combat: the amount of CC you have to endure is killing the fun, especially for melee. It doesn’t matter to have unstoppable 4 sec… you’ll be Cc for the rest of the Cooldown of your skill. Pvp is decent

    Endgame: boring same crap

    Crafting: non-existent

    Qol: lacks so much of it… no map overlay, no gem tab, no proper search function

Gameplay is different than D3,D2, and most action rpg ( you actualy need to know how to play, you cant just go in and kill everything on the map, i takes skill and preparation and understanding of the items, builds, statuss effect like "unstoppable" - must have, "vurnerable" etc, dmg to crowed controled etc" Aspect system is amazing, crafting is there and its nice, game is DEEP but not like POE trust me you dont want 7 pages of 100+ skill trees and when you hover over an item you need to do a quantum mehanics equasion to actualy know what works or what doesnt work" Its a game for MOSTLY CASUAL audience but even HC players can find something here. BLIZZ pls dont listen to these idiots trashing your game on purpose cos "its not offline" "where is Diablo" and ALL other supid explanations... Skills are great, combat and "FEEL" of the game is amazing, Transmog is great, Paragon Boards are great and fun. MOUNT system is rly good, MAP is ENOURMOUS, Bosses have phases (i guess noobs probably dont get there is a breaker system in place like in Guild Wars 2) Open World is AMAZING, leveling is great. GAME isnt easy dont listen to anyone, i am a veteran player and its not easy if you are not paying attention you WILL DIE even on World Tier 1. Dungeons are okay, BOSSES are good, DODGE mehanic is a must have to go around your cooldowns, Transmog system is great, UI is not that bad as ppl say it just takes some time to get used to it. WORLD bosses are amazing and Fun - hard but rewarding loot piniatas to enyoj the world with others, world events are on Guild Wars 2 level, and thats something RLY great. It does feel like an MMO but hey thats fine so does DESTINY 2, they all do. We live in an online wolrd. What else, yea, oh store prices? POE and other games also have 20$ prices... Everyone does it, but i gotta give it to the skin designers, even the random ass yellow items look good, (IMO some look better than the store ones, and they are free.) LISTEN TO ME, im not a fanboy i think d2 is too old, i think d3 was rly bad, but THIS game, i think is one of the best arpgs of the decade. Bu hu hu the servers suck we have disconects, guess what, ALL GAMES DO. Give the Devs a break and dont trash the game, i mean MILLIONS of people are playing the game... it WILL get better. And as for bu hu hu i want a solo expirience, gues what, if you even tried to play, most of the time id DOES feel like you play SOLO. (excluding World Bosses, and Events, and Towns) you wont see many ppl there (great server layering congratz to the devs) and ENDGAME is GREAT. You allways have something to do, i hope seasons will be great i will buy them all i think. This game is a masterpiece 10/10 with minor fixes needed, dont listen to anyone pls, listen to me, i know what im talking about i have 2500 hours in Destiny 2. and almost 1000 in all other MMO's and Action RPG's, and BY FAR Diablo 4 is the ONE TRUE KING.

    VERDICT 10/10 - if you dont like it dont trash it its just maybe not for you. Everyone likes different stuff, that doesnt mean you need to hate the game.

    HORIZONTAL PROGRESSION is a MUST. Great JOB devs, i rly like that WHOLE MAP feels impactful.
    all those idiots that say that they dont feel the progression, they are just below 60 IQ. It takes time to develop skill, and BEST in SLOT items for your character, TRUST me you DO feel strong when you do all the stuff right.

    Diablo IV is a masterpiece. It's the best ARPG in YEARS, and one of the best (if not the best available right now). I'm playing it every day since the early-access, and I'll keep playing it until I've tried all classes and get to at least level 50 with each, so I can see which fits my playstyle the most.

I'm playing it every day since the early-access, and I'll keep playing it until I've tried all classes and get to at least level 50 with each, so I can see which fits my playstyle the most.

    Overall, great game, smooth gameplay, amazing sound effects, good atmosphere and the graphics are just right for a game like this.

    It gets a bit boring in the endgame for some classes (it'll feel like you're not progressing anymore), but that's mostly a balancing issue and they seem to be fixing those pretty quickly.    … Expand

    This is a fantastic game day one. I have about 100 hours in already, and I plan on making this my "home" game for the foreseeable future.

    Pros: - Open World: Lots of things to do in an open world field. Quests, World Events, Strongholds, Dungeons, etc. - Impressive Endgame: For a game that just launched it already has a lot to keep you busy after the campaign. Tree of Whispers    This is a fantastic game day one. I have about 100 hours in already, and I plan on making this my "home" game for the foreseeable future.

    Pros:
    - Open World: Lots of things to do in an open world field. Quests, World Events, Strongholds, Dungeons, etc.
    - Impressive Endgame: For a game that just launched it already has a lot to keep you busy after the campaign. Tree of Whispers (bounties), Fields of Hatred (PvP), Helltides (Random challenging areas that appear for a limited time), World Bosses, and Nightmare Dungeons.
    - Story Campaign: This not only has the best Diablo story, I would say it's one of the best video game stories I've played through in a long time. The whole thing is very morally grey, that makes you wonder where you stand. It's not just black and white like a lot of other fantasy type of games.
    - Combat: The combat is super fun, with a crazy amount of different builds and styles to try out. The way weapon and armor aspects can further change up the builds in significant ways always always keeps me interested and thinking of new possibilities.
    - The Future: The already plan to introduce new seasonal content ever three months to help keep the game fresh and interesting with the first one happening in late July.

    Cons:
    - Still some stabilities issues they need to work out. I get disconnected once or twice a day on my PS5.
    - Mounts need to be addressed for smoother riding. It's easy to get stuck running into a little hill for example.
    -Boss variety needs to be upped. I'm fine with the dungeons being the way they are, but encountering the same boss in several different dungeons is disappointing. Making each one unique would also give each dungeon its own distinction. Heck, even changing the colors and names would be better than nothing.

    Despite my cons I still give this a 10. Not because it's perfect but because it's exceed my expectations and has a promising future. Not to mention a less buggy experience than a lot of other games recently (Redfall for example.) A lot of the low reviews are saying things that are just factually not true. It's not pay to win, you can trade in the game, etc. All in all, a great to start to a great game.    … Expand

Combat is enjoyable, with the usual packs of exploding demons, and the game world is gorgeous. The storyline was solid for Diablo with lots of cinematics. Seasons look good and with a revenue model, hopefully they will contain interesting content. There is a modest endgame that consists of scaling dungeons, helltides, tree of whispers quests for gear, and legion events. The world boss appears too infrequently.

    There are some major missteps that need to be rectified though. QoL is poor, with too little stash and tiny character inventory. Yet again loot is disappointing as if they learned nothing from Diablo III. Legendaries amount to crafting materials, unique affixes are iffy, and incomprehensibly they put in ultra-rare drops that most players will never see. Why do that in an essentially solo game that revolves around loot? There is no random grouping for nightmare dungeons, and respeccing a character costs a small fortune in gold. This design decision makes no sense in a live service game where a patch can break a build overnight. It should have been free - optimizing gear is already a substantive gold sink.

    Also conspicuously missing are the cow level, gold and item find gear that was a staple of previous Diablo games, and the Horadric cube. Treasure goblins are stingy and even after the buff gold shrines are barely worth clicking. One has to wonder if the development team has even played the previous Diablo games.

    Hopefully Blizzard will get the issues rectified more quickly than they did for Diablo III. It certainly has potential but it's not a great game at this point.    … Expand

    Statues of Lilith are annoying and do not add anything meaningful into the game.
    The dungeons only being accessible in the overworld introduces meaningless walking.
    No loot filters. Have to sift through loot manually.
    Stash/vendors in town are spread out. Introduces meaningless walking.
    Nerfs to builds 2 days after launch. Wasting your pre-launch build planning. Hopefully they will not do that to season launches.
    Low dungeon randomization. Leading to high dungeon predictability / determinism of certain dungeon features.
    Low mob density. Partially making players walk more than kill monsters.
    The general low mob density and low dungeon randomization also causes dungeons with high density clusters to be more efficient to farm to the point where only 1 or 2 dungeons are being farmed by the community.
    Group play has so many benefits that it trivializes and exploits certain aspects of the game. That can be ok if the ladder will be split in solo only and rest.
    Bad class balance. Some classes are good and fast while leveling and in endgame. Some only in endgame. And some seem to be worse in all parts of the game.
    No super rare powerful chase items like rare runes in D2, Mageblood in PoE, etc.
    Legendary / unique affixes which add dmg multipliers to specific skills. This creates a balancing hell where one or two skills will always be better to pick due to their affixes being more powerful (see Whirlwind for Barb or Twisting Blades for Rogue). Instead of having generalized affixes which make many different skills more powerful, increasing build diversity.
    UI made for consoles / controller limitations.
    No social features like party finder. I would expect this from an always online, shared overworld game.
    An enemy level scaling where mobs also gain levels when your character levels up. This will cause your character to sometimes get weaker when leveling up due to mobs sometimes gaining more stats than you on level up.    … Expand

    Due to time restraints was only able to play character to level 50 during initial release (barbarian). Playing rogue now during season one and having a blast. All the zeros seem to be mostly from folks that don’t like changes to their specific class or are grinding out late game. Can’t speak to late game, but from 1-50 the leveling experience in Season 1 has been a lot of fun.

    OK, I left the game before Season 1 so I experienced everything and I enjoyed it. I tried to play it but the patch of Battlenet disconnect my wifi while updating. WTF. It happened a lot of times. I am not angry with that anyway. I just play other games.

    So the game, it is good. I started with barbarian enjoyed the story, the exploration, the fights, the enemies, the missions.

It happened a lot of times. I am not angry with that anyway. I just play other games.

    So the game, it is good. I started with barbarian enjoyed the story, the exploration, the fights, the enemies, the missions. But then something was bad, the class.

    I started following a guide, because I didnt want to do the same mistakes I did in D2. So character was strong. But I didnt like Whirlwind. So I changed to a personal build and, lol, I was weak, and boring.
    I created a rogue thinking of a shadow build but I found out the Imbuement build. The game became so easy and funny. I killed the bosses faster than other classes. But ¿was it OP?, no. There were still bosses from strongholds that killed me sometimes. I had to rebuild me just to beat them. And that was enjoyable.
    The other 3 classes were funny too. Druid is weak, Sorcerer is pew pew and Necromancer is... a full tank. Oh yeah Necro was exploting blood with Overpower damage.

    The story was.. good, but not the best one. Neyrelle and Donan were family reasons, at least Donan didnt started like that but they changed the direction of his decisions. Then it is Lilith family story, it was cool. And Lorath with Elias story like father and son, again. It is to based on family. There were good backgrounds stories like Taissa or Mephisto. At least in general the start and ending were good.

    I liked the system of levels. I could play with my friend who was 10 levels down. There are some bad things about this but I go more for the good finger.

    The enemies were good. I found a lot of differents bosses. Even if they repeate in the dungeons, there is no need to farm all the dungeons. Their attacks are dogeables. So you need to think how to fight them.

    The scenary was perfect. Yes, D3 showed us the worst hell for babies. And here you enter a dungeon with a lot of blood, bodies, pain, etc. The good Diablo game.

    I can say they did a good job with the game like old times. But the old games were not perfect and this one neither.    … Expand

    Diablo 4 at this state is a very strong base for an excellent, time-consuming and addictive game but right now is just a time filler, you can play, you will enjoy it but it's just pointless.

The combat feels good, the graphics are great, and the campaign was incredible. I think the game is great for semi-casual players, but may fall off for hardcore players. We will see what seasons do for the game.

    Good:
    - I found the build diversity pretty good. I play a twisting blades rogue, and even just looking at build guides, it is great to so many different ways this build can be played, from a trap-based build, to an imbuement-based build, or something in between. Moreover, other builds are pretty good, even if not meta picks, such as penetrating shot and flurry.

    - Enjoy the open world nature of Diablo IV, and the fact that the overworld remains relevant all the way to level 100.

    - I enjoy the gearing process. I know some people complain about it being too simplistic, and maybe it is compared to other ARPGs, but I find think there are meaningful choices to be made with the gear. Finding upgrades is an enjoyable process.

    - I enjoy scaling, but I understand why others do not. I play with my brother who has a lot less time to play than me, and it's nice that we can still play together.

    - The combat is just fun. I enjoy the risk-reward of the rogue. Running into a large pack is dangerous, but if I can survive a few seconds, then I basically become invincible and do insane damage.

    - I don't think the monetization of the game is a problem. The shop is entirely cosmetics, so I could care less how much they charge. The early-access for $20 wasn't fun, but if it's an issue, just don't pay for it...

    Bad:
    - The inventory is quite bad. There are only 4 stash tabs, and only 33 slots in your inventory. Gems need their own bag, as well as nightmare sigils. I'm planning to play an alt, and I might make it on a separate account so that I don't have to share the stash with another character, as the stash size is frustratingly small. There also need to be a search function for the stash.

    - Respeccing is borderline unbearable. At higher level, the cost becomes insane, with it being around 10M gold at level 100. Even ignoring the gold cost, changing the paragon board is very tedious, since we have to unclick every paragon point that you need to remove to change it. This is outrageous to me. They should add the ability to modify the board, and then hit accept when you're done with changing it, like in WoW dragonflight. Also, if there are paragon points beyond the point you are trying to remove, there should be an option to auto unlearn all skills beyond that point.

    - The endgame feels very grindy, and repetitive. I am hopeful that this will be addressed in the seasonal content, we shall see.    … Expand

    I finished campaign and currently am around 60. The game is superb. I have been Diablo franchise fan since childhood starting from Diablo 1. This iteration makes improvements on the story, atmosphere and gameplay.

    I agree with lots of developers design decisions, especially how they approached level scaling and itemization as all regions are now relevant even in endgame. The game now    I finished campaign and currently am around 60. The game is superb. I have been Diablo franchise fan since childhood starting from Diablo 1. This iteration makes improvements on the story, atmosphere and gameplay.

    I agree with lots of developers design decisions, especially how they approached level scaling and itemization as all regions are now relevant even in endgame. The game now requires combination of skill and some amount of planning in terms of character tweaking. There might be situations while fighting, where you need to revaluate approach or tactically retreat but that keeps combat interesting. I really like the fact that there is some resistance and monsters are not simply bending to you.
    You still make gains and there are ways to make your character powerful, so you can have your power fantasy, but things can kill you if not careful, which is so much better and that is how game should be: A bit challenging.

    Story is really good and satisfying and got me into Sanctuary lore again. It was quite ride with lots of cool moments. Much darker than D3, which I like but I would not say that atmosphere is as dark and heavy as it was in D1 and D2 (not sure if it is good or bad, but I think I would welcome something even more darker).
    Characters not as black and white as you would expect, but protagonist seems to be spared from dichotomy of good and evil and is quite one dimensional. Maybe in next iterations hero choices and impact on the events could be explored?
    Cinematics were masterpiece.

    Technically, game is fantastic. Graphic, animations, sound, gameplay, various systems. All is exceptionally well made. So much detail in there. You start to appreciate little things like busy towns, little tasks that npc do (skinning animals, fixing something, speaking, while surrounded by crowd, crows flying away as player approaches etc). Each town feels unique. You just want to be in this world and interact with it (eg. clicking on pile of stones to get the materials and to hear the sound and animation feels a little like first moment in D1 after killing first skeleton)

    Modern accessibility options: It is nice knowing that someone cares.

    There is some critique I would have: Lots of dungeons feel similar because of the same tasks/bosses that need to be done. I hope it can be improved over time, would be nice to have some variety so redesigning dungeons and adding new bosses would be welcomed.

    Option to hide whole HUD. I am not sure if I missed this but I do not think it is in the game (correct me if I am wrong). Please add this. Sometimes I like to just log in to enjoy the towns, surroundings and art.

    Overall, Blizzard did outstanding job here. I am so satisfied that I got my younger brother into the series again and I am trying to get my little brother into it as well so all three of us can experience the franchise like in 1997.    … Expand

Exploring Diablo 4's world becomes an enchanting adventure, where every corner hides secrets, lore, and surprises that immerse players deeper into the experience.

    Just when players think they've conquered every challenge Diablo 4 has to offer, the endgame presents a whole new level of excitement. The endgame content is thoughtfully designed, offering a plethora of activities to keep players engaged long after the main story is complete.

    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.
