    I don't quite understand this massive complaining about Diablo 4. From an objective standpoint, it's the best installment in the series, certainly the most advanced and expansive.

From an objective standpoint, it's the best installment in the series, certainly the most advanced and expansive. It seems to me that **** Diablo 2 does a lot of harm to this series. Sure, Diablo 4 has its problems, but let's remember that the game has only been on the market for a month. Diablo 3 was realistically playable only after many months of patches and fixes. Path of Exile, which is considered a holy grail for some people, has been on the market for 10 years and still has its issues despite such a long time for the game's development. Season 1 hasn't even started, and there are already complaints about the endgame being lackluster. In my opinion, we need to give the developers time and credit.

    As for the argument that it's a waste of money because you lose interest after completing the story, come on, people. The story alone provides dozens of hours of fun if someone doesn't rush through it and takes the time to explore the world. The game is worth the full price for the campaign alone, and the seasons, future updates, and expansions can make it the coolest HC game on the market.    … Expand

    The game was fantastic at first but recent patches have really tarnished my experience since I play sorcerer. It was a 10, but I’m changing to a 8 based on the recent changes. I just hope they make my class viable again soon.

    According to Reddit, Xbox players are spending too much time playing the game and not reviewing it.

    So here is my review.....Game is fine, no issues here.

    Overall I really like the game. I'm happy it went back to a more Diablo I/II look and feel instead of doubling down on Diablo III. I feel like season 1 will be the only season I play, since restarting from scratch for only a tiny bit of new story really isn't for me. Additionally the cosmetics earned are kind of pointless when you only really get to see them in the load screens. I playOverall I really like the game.

    Diablo IV main quest line is excellent and the gameplay is very good. However, the endgame is very repetitive and not has fun yet, but Diablo 3 endgame really started to be fun after The Reaper of Souls expansion. So now I am waiting for the expansion.

    For me personally, the level scaling and campaign which had so much boring walking/traveling from zone to zone is what has made me stop playing it. I would still rate it close to 6.5 or 7 though as objectively it is a good game. Just certain decisions don't mesh with me.

    D3 launch day was a bloody stool. I had no expectation of any such problem-free miracle on D4 launch day either. Anyone who did is being stupid. I logged on and waited patiently.
    The world is HUGE! D3 was really limited and somewhat straight line.
    The graphics are top notch! Much more 'realistic' than cartoony D3.

    However, it is VERY repetitive.... like EVERY GAME IN THIS GENRE.

    One big negative is that you cannot choose your level of play. I really liked that I could increase my difficulty in D3. I also liked that I could decrease when my underpowered character just couldn't go any further.
    ------------------ I really don't like that the monsters level as soon as I do. ----------------------

    D3 lasted 10 years. We may not see that with D4, but I imagine that future improvements, they will make the game even better.    … Expand

With its rich lore, atmospheric world, and addictive gameplay, it is a worthy addition to the series. However, while the game excels in many aspects, it occasionally suffers from moments of sluggishness and monotony.

    One of the standout features of Diablo IV is its captivating and dark fantasy setting. The game's art direction and visual design are masterfully executed, painting a grim and hauntingly beautiful world. From eerie dungeons to sprawling outdoor landscapes, each area is meticulously crafted with attention to detail. The atmosphere is enhanced by atmospheric sound effects and a haunting musical score that immerses players in the haunting realms of Sanctuary.

    The gameplay mechanics in Diablo IV offer a satisfying blend of hack-and-slash combat, character progression, and loot acquisition. The diverse classes each offer a unique playstyle, encouraging experimentation and providing ample replay value. The visceral combat and the thrill of finding powerful loot create a sense of constant progression and reward.

    However, one area where Diablo IV falls short is pacing. The game occasionally suffers from slow moments and repetitive gameplay loops, which can lead to moments of boredom. While the initial exploration and questing are engaging, there are instances where the game's pace slows down, making it feel like a grind. It is in these moments that the game could benefit from injecting more dynamic events or a greater variety of quest types to keep the player engaged and excited.

    Despite the occasional lulls, Diablo IV's narrative is compelling and serves as a driving force throughout the adventure. The game's darker tone and mature storytelling present a captivating tale of ancient evils, personal vendettas, and the fight for salvation. Engaging cutscenes and well-written dialogue breathe life into the diverse cast of characters, making them feel like more than just quest-giving entities.

    Multiplayer and cooperative gameplay add another layer of excitement to Diablo IV. Teaming up with friends to tackle challenging dungeons or engaging in intense player-versus-player battles can be a thrilling experience. The cooperative play fosters a sense of camaraderie and adds longevity to the game beyond the single-player campaign.

    Diablo IV's graphics and performance are top-notch, with detailed character models, stunning spell effects, and smooth animations. The game's technical aspects contribute to the overall immersive experience, allowing players to fully appreciate the dark and foreboding world they inhabit.

    In conclusion, Diablo IV is a welcome addition to the beloved franchise, offering a dark and immersive adventure that captures the essence of the series. While occasional moments of sluggishness and monotony hinder the overall experience, the captivating setting, addictive gameplay mechanics, and engaging narrative make it a standout title. With some fine-tuning to address the pacing issues, Diablo IV has the potential to become a truly exceptional game that satisfies both long-time fans and newcomers to the Diablo universe.    … Expand

    The skills just don't feel as devistating when they hit. The customization of your characters are so limited that you can't do a bad build. Each skill points adds like 20 - 50 extra damage, or reduces / increases by 0.2 - 3%.
    You don't feel like your some amazing hero smashing your way through thousands of monsters and more like another recruit sent into the grinder.    … Expand

    A lot of dumb kids just bombing the rating without even playing the game.
    The game overall is ok. You can definitely spend there few weeks-month by playing campaign and then exploring some endgame stuff to do until it starts getting boring. I had fun playing this amount of time so gaming is good.
    Rating it as 6, because game also has issues that needs to be solved.

    - Boss fights are repetitive and unmemorable

The game boasts intriguing exploration elements and the dungeons are nothing short of entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed it for a good 40 to 50 hours.

    Had I based my review solely on that initial experience, Diablo 4 would effortlessly earn a 9 out of 10 from me. However, it's crucial to remember that this is a "game as a service," and needs to be evaluated in that light. Regrettably, once Blizzard assimilated player feedback, they severely nerfed many of the game mechanics I cherished. There's merit to the argument that these changes might balance the game, ensuring players don't effortlessly coast through without any genuine challenges. While I echo this sentiment, Blizzard's adjustments felt overly harsh. A more measured approach would've been appreciated.

    Now, addressing the seasonal content: it's currently lackluster, often feeling like a repetitive grind with the occasional new quest and gear thrown in. I'm a fan of the cosmetics in their battle pass; it's refreshing to have a plethora of aesthetic items up for grabs. Yet, the content should be sufficiently compelling to make players want to invest in a battle pass in the first place.

    After 80 hours, and after starting a second character, the motivation is gone, and I need new content and more flexible character building.

    TL;DR I liked Diablo 3 and Path of Exile more. # Gameplay Hitfeedback is not that satisfying. Ability variety is less than in previously mentioned games. Levelling was exciting in Diablo 3, each level gave you something new to try. In Diablo 4,    After 80 hours, and after starting a second character, the motivation is gone, and I need new content and more flexible character building.

    TL;DR I liked Diablo 3 and Path of Exile more.

    # Gameplay
    Hitfeedback is not that satisfying. Ability variety is less than in previously mentioned games.
    Levelling was exciting in Diablo 3, each level gave you something new to try. In Diablo 4, you unlock a section where you can try 4-5 Skills, where only one skill may be fun to use. Then you have to grind too long with levelling multiple levels, to unlock the next skill set to try new skills. The more you level, the longer it takes to unlock the next set.
    You can't observe how your Experience bar goes up, it will be covered by an annoying status information. In Diablo 3, it was exciting to see that bar going up, depending on the amount of kills, and difficulty.
    For looting, it is missing a feature from Diablo 3, which would indicate whether the loot would increase a stat or not. Now, you have to loot, go to menu, navigate to the item, then decide what to do with it.
    Bosses are very bullet spongy, and become monotonous quickly, you will see when doing dungeons. I reduced the difficulty and renounced Experience boost, just to get over with this a bit faster. Sometimes it becomes a pure endurance minigame, seeing the health bar of the boss going down so slowly, while repeating the same pattern.
    Bosses have too easy mechanics. Path of Exile bosses are designed better.
    Elites of different races share combat patterns, and also behave very predictable after having fought a few of them. If I see one more jump-smash attack of an elite, I will scream.
    When you have found your favourite skill set from the skill tree, that’s it. There is not much change for the skills on how they behave. The only thing that changes with those endgame boards, are a few more attribute points here, a few more % damage there. Not like in Path of Exile, where you can significantly modify the behaviour of skills, also in the endgame.
    I also started a second character, and it's still the same feeling, just with other skills. In Path of Exile, you can have all those skills with just one character.
    One ultimate skill from the bow class (arrow rain), is a standard skill in Path of Exile.
    It’s laborious to change the world level. In Diablo 3 you could switch fluently between world levels, right from the pause/character menu.
    On level 51, I was still waiting for the feeling which Diablo 3 and Path of Exile gave me.
    It becomes extremely monotonous, when doing map completion, riding from A to B, just to experience the same again and again. Enemies become monotonous. Sometimes, the enemy just walks around you, sticking on you.
    After unlocking the third, and last interesting endgame board, and unlocking the legendary nodes on all three, I thought “so.. that’s it”?
    My next goal should be unlocking world level 4. But that means I have to grind until lv 70 with the same monotonous gameplay. No thanks.
    I miss the sandboxiness of Path of Exile, where I can increase the attack speed almost on my wish, and I miss the combat feeling of both Path of Exile and Diablo 3.

    # World
    Main story & atmosphere, good. Impressively good (italian) voice acting.
    Shared world stuff just distracts, feels cheap like a Lost Ark clone.
    When I was lv 45, the loot in the main story was for lv 35, even if mission level was scaled to my level.
    World boss, almost no hit feedback, and also just a bullet sponge with repetitive and predictable behaviour.
    Riding from A to B is a pure minimap minigame, typical open-world problem.
    Secondary missions have very much spoken dialogues, also with many optional dialogues. I find, the game designer(s) should have put more resources into the gameplay. I only did secondary missions, for map completion, for unlocking endgame points. I skipped all secondary mission dialogues, and did not do one more secondary mission, after unlocking all map rewards. The stories of secondary missions were standard secondary stuff.

    this game gets killed by the SCALING OF THE MONSTERS.
    here are some Pros and Cons.

    Pro:
    - big open world
    - some nice additions to that openworld like the lilith altars , a lot of sidequests, some of them are pretty good story wise
    - mainstory is pretty nice

    Cons:
    - BIGGEST MINUS IS THAT EVERYTHING SCALES TO YOUR LEVEL/POWER SO IT MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE TO GET STRONGER, CUZ THEY WILL BEAT YOU THE SAME WAY THEY DID BEFORE YOU GOT YOUR AWESOME LEGENDARY WHICH IS LIKE 20 LVLS ABOVE THE OLD ONE
    - Absolutely not rewarding endgame
    - Legendaries suck , you can get the same legendary stats on any kind of item, so its just the icon/looks which is different
    - there are actually only a few legendary stats which are useable cuz most classes have like one good build which is recommended or actually does some damage
    - skills are super boring, and by boring i mean super boring, imagine throwing bonespears as a necromancer because its your strongest hitting skill and spamming the basic bone attack skill 10 times because your bonespear takes like 20-30% of your ressources
    - the attack animations are bad, the game looks actually ugly too, for a next gen game it failed. look at Lost Ark , they managed everything and that game is like 5 years old
    - they could have build some LFG function into it, but there isnt any
    - The Death of two big names... one killed by a furniture, the other one got skewered from the back.. never seen a more stupid deathscene like this in any game before
    - it took me like 30 hours or so or probably more to unlock the damn horse, thats probably their way of dragging the story... you can imagine how annoying that is right?
    - every 20 mins, half of your inventory will be filled with gems... the game is full of backtracking elements which will also make your life in sanctuario harder, harder than lilith could do

    i regret paying so much money for this, looks like critics review are also not reliable enough anymore. only pay/play if you want to experience the gameplay and want to experiment a little bit. because after like lvl 50 all you will do is either 100% the whole map AC style or just grind the same stuff for the 10000th time till you quit and i can tell you that grinding Diablo 4 is no fun, Diablo 3 was atleast enjoyable , flying through the dungeons, also having more challenging dungeons available at any time. they had enough time and also enough money to make tis a big game. i hated them back on diablo 3 release for their bad server management, now i will hate them for effing up a game gameplay wise, which is impossible to fix. never going to buy another diablo game again, maybe if its on sale for 5 bucks    … Expand

    Diablo IV is the perfect evolution of the series. The many new features make for a truly modern title, giving us an experience capable of keeping us glued to the controller for many hours, without neglecting the historical and most beloved features of the series. If we add to this a technical aspect of the highest quality, a very accessible multiplayer structure, and a huge end-game, we obtain a majestic title that stands as the best exponent of the action-RPG genre and is capable of bringing us plenty of emotions.

    Diablo IV is a social phenomenon and once again sets a new standard for the genre. It's a dark, spooky, action-packed experience. Combat is frantic, fluid and fun, while micro-management of resources and inventory feels better than ever before.

    Diablo IV is the culmination of everything Blizzard has set up before to make one ultimate experience. The world is stunning, drowned in a beautiful soundtrack that makes even the smallest moments feel epic. With a deep character system, satisfying combat and an endgame that feels like only the start of your adventure, it's hard not to recommend. Dig in, experiment with classes, fight some demons and loot some dungeons. You won’t regret it.
