    Sadly wasn't what I anticipated at all, fell for the marketing and social media hype by the PR companies. Comparatively to it's own predecessors no items, end game, or social aspects minus a few superficial ones despite forced online play.

    No other options, as to play only online with disconnects, that is gave me negative experience. It's awful. If I wasn't a fan of diablo, I would gladely put 1*

    Plenty of other reviews cover the reasons why Diablo 4 is hot garbage. One of the worst games I've ever bought. I will never buy anything from them again.

    Search Actman Diablo 4 and watch any of his related reviews. Search Blizzard lawsuits.

    I scheduled my G.D. vacation time for the D4 release & 3 days into playing it stopped being fun. I'm still upset. What a scam.

    The once great Blizzard North was bought out over a decade ago and none of the brilliant minds still work there at what is now called Activision Blizzard. I didn't know this until after buying D4. Blizzard pumps out flashy games with no substance and puts the Blizzard stamp on it to cash in on nostalgia and utilize predatory in game cash transaction practices. Their games are pure marketing & sales. Look at reviews for any of their games in the last decade. I wish I had.

    Don't believe the positive critic reviews or the fake positive reviews masquerading as negative ones. Blizzard pays for those to confuse people

    Made the mistake to give Blizzard one more chance. Before Season 1 it was both better and worse than i expected. The Store and Mechanics weren't that bad. I had seen worse coming from Overwatch. But the game itself was a bit disappointing. The story is braindead and the bosses are just bulletsponges.

Some Sidequest are real gems but overall the game feels like it was designed by a group of unity devs fresh out of a bootcamp..... Seaons 1 and the accompanying changes showed the true face of activision/blizz again by doing everything and at any cost to nickel and dime the player. It came to a point that i feel insulted for having bought the game. Needless to say i would rather stop playing Video Games than give even 1 more buck to this company.… Expand

    With the release of Diablo 4, I found myself deeply immersed in its captivating world.

The thrill of the loot cycle was palpable, and the intricate skill trees provided numerous possibilities for character customization. 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.

    This review reflects my impressions during season 1. I remain hopeful for brighter days ahead for Diablo 4.    … Expand

    I played this game a lot and i will still play if but damn 91 score?! really
    it's basically D3 with D2 graphics and horses :)
    almost nothing new
    the story is much wors than D2 or even D3

    -2 (from 5) because a level 100 can attack a level 76, maybe below) on below on PvP

    Its better than Diablo III but still the magic of Diablo II is not there. It sometimes feels very slow and repetitive.

    Just really amazing and through game. When I start playing a game , I want to be throughly engaged for as many hours as dollars spent. 70 $ means I want 70 hours. I have almost 4 weeks of playing time. It’s just fun. The graphics are amazing. All the classes are different and fun in their own way (except necro). One of my favorite games of all time and it’s my first Diablo.

    I liked it at first but the amount of bugs and fixes and things they are yet to provide to a game 10 years in the making doesn’t deserve more than 5 points.

    I’ve finished playing pretty much everything now and can safely say that this is a mediocre game. The main quest is great with some decent boss fights but it’s short and way too easy. End game, as everyone has noted, is a big, boring grind - my seasonal character is sitting at level 98 and I can’t be bothered toiling out the last two. The shared world elements feel like an afterthought andI’ve finished playing pretty much everything now and can safely say that this is a mediocre game.

The shared world elements feel like an afterthought and I really only enjoyed playing two out of the five classes. There’s simply not enough variation.

    Now, a lot of people have thrown a tantrum and scored this game way lower than what’s reasonable. I get it, they got their feelings hurt and want to hurt back. But this is not a zero game. It has it’s good moments, there’s just not enough of them.

    In a word: uninspired. Buy it on discount.    … Expand

    Diablo 4 came out in pretty good shape at launch. I wasn’t expecting a perfect game by any means, but it was definitely fun. Then came the 1.1.0 patch and it was downhill from there. I know they regret it and are trying to make improvements, but it’s too little, too late at this point. The game gets VERY repetitive, especially once your around level 70+.

Hopefully season 2 gets a major improvement because Blizzard needs it. Hell, Diablo fans need it. POE 2 are grinning cheek to cheek right now. Blizzard has just about a year to finish this game. And I do mean FINISH. If not, POE 2 is going to leave them in the dirt.… Expand

    Sadly weighed down by poor seasonal content. Whilst the gameplay itself feels great, and build variety is decent (if not at the level of path of exile), actual game content after the main campaign is poor.

    Un maravilloso juego que perfecciona las mecánicas, con una historia atrapante, con un mapa variado en ambientes y mejora el online. Es todo lo que se esperaba de la saga y mas. Sin embargo, se ve lastrado por su monetización tanto del pase como de su tienda de cosméticos que deberían estar incluidos en el juego base o al menos como premios de eventos internos de la comunidad.

    I'd give the game a 5/10 on launch. Went downhill in season 1. Once you hit level 80 and upgrade a few pieces of gear it's possible to spend 50 hours without one single upgrade. Shame on Blizzard for making a great franchise so incredibly boring! It should be mandatory that everyone working on this game should have to play Diablo 1-3 first. Write down what you like, what you hate.I'd give the game a 5/10 on launch. Went downhill in season 1.

Fixing the gear to level 80 so that you can "share" with alts is silly. There is no room in storage and no will to play a 2nd character at the same time.

    What an epic failure. I'm playing another half level to get to 100 and then retiring. I feel like playing three more than four.    … Expand

    Finished the campaign. Haven't really logged back into the game after this. Nothing really keeps me playing. It's just a grind. And they want you to pay more money for passes and store items. My time is best spent elsewhere.

    I have to say the graphic is excellent, but the game feeling is not so good, max level 100 is a quite long journey to go. I believe many of them quit in the middle.

    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.

    Activision is the worst company ever, they sell a ptoduct for $70 like this or call of duty and plaster the store and pop ups to get you to buy something. But they know kids play these game so those are the people they are realing trying to get to buy those items. Im done buying Activision studio's games

    Pros: Great characters build setting, new game but mixed with old school Hack & Slash, Best story-lines in this franchise. Amazing atmosphere.
    Cons: Endgame content doesn't appear to me. Druid's class took too slow to level up.
    Concluded: Great game, must buy - 7/10
    Updated: I just changed my score back to 4 due to the latest season completely awful

    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.
