It has certainly met my expectations. While I’m not super stoked about the money store, I see no reason to be threatened by it, it exists for those that buy from it and otherwise I will continue ignoring it
Story has been great so far, I’m no where near the end and my power fantasy has been well met as a primarily bone Necro.
It is okay. Kind of fun to play if I just go at it and do not think about it to much. It is not a game that will let us feel powerful and that is one of the more fun aspects of arpg’s so I need to adjust my expectation.
I think I would rate it as a 3.5 of 5 right now. It looks great and combat plays really fluid, and your character looks great! There are a number of issues underpinning it that together make me not as invested as I was with Diablo 2 and Diablo 3. I’m not super hungry for spare time to play Diablo 4 but I think it’s “fine”.
However, I think Blizzard will have some nice updates to come because my problems with the game is echoed by so many others, like itemization, skill and build variety and high-level end game progression. In these regards, I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re looking at a vastly updated game already by autumn.
So that’s why I’m happy that the core of Diablo 4 looks and feels good because that’d be harder to fix than the spreadsheet-like data.
I really like it so far. 51 bone necro myself. starting to feel a bit lost now but still having fun. I think there is still plenty of thing I don’t get yet. Agree on the store.
BONE NECRO GANG!
Currently at lvl 69 as a Bone Spear Necro. Been enjoying it for the most part, but there are things popping up every now and again that are somewhat detrimental to the experience. Will be interesting to see the first big patch.
So far loving it but playing it super casually - only Level 46 so far.
Having a great time so far. It’s definitely in a much better state then D3 was at launch, or even a while after. And the amount and quality of content is way beyond D2.
Biggest thing in watching blue is how they update the game going forward. If they can keep building on and improving the game, then I think I’ll be enjoying this game for quite a while.
I’m around 40lvl, just started Act 3. It’s a diablo, as I wanted to see it. It lacks some qol features. And sometimes its a bit tedious (maybe it’s just about me getting older). I played barb and necro on beta. Now my main is rogue and it’s not an easy point’n’click. I want more skill buttons (at least 5th for ultimate), but it’s interesting to test different builds. So, I’m totally happy with this diablo. Imo, it’s better than diablo 3 in many aspects. But a little boring visually.
I agree with the visuals, the game IS beautiful in its own way, but the muddled browns and greys make every zone kinda look the same across the continent.
Yeah. 3rd had more various and visually pleasing locations. I really want domething like jungles or the heaven. Didn’t spoiled it to myself, maybe they are latter in game. But I doubt.
Yes, I know Diablo 3 got a TON of complaints about the art direction but honestly my problem with it was always more about the World of Warcraft-style blocky architecture etc. rather than the colors. I always liked rather colorful games since they really make each area feel different and new, which is great when you’re playing in Adventure Mode and like to switch things up.
