Diablo® IV Reviews

I like grinding, but I don't like pointless grinding, and that is the issue with this game. For me, Blizzard didn't finish this game. NPC animations and interaction are still as junky, annoying, and time-consuming as in the first season. Even more current season progression is forcing you to do stuff instead of play game and enjoy it without investing to much time in it what btw is difficult. Curently boss fights are forcing you to go trough forced invincibility animations and clicking on loot chests before you can start another fight. Also another annoyng thing is that if you don't buy expansion some of game mechanicks will be locked away from you. They probably did it because Spirit born isn't worth it anyway... and they will do it with next expansion. Lastly i will coment on cosmetics. Many of them look like they are based on AI-generated concept art, and they are ugly and have no logic in their design. Overall, this game isn't worth its full price.

such a beautiful game. good mechanics, nice casual gaming on normal level. my review is based on having played D1 when it came out, so Im still stuck with early Diablo games as benchmark. obviously this one blows away all the older ones. so much art in it. it just be 1000s of artist hours to make. i appreciate that.

Ignore the haters. If you invest into the system this game has to offer it has hundreds of hours of gameplay, with tons of stuff to do. Each season brings a new theme and game updates, and despite the big devil not making his appearance yet, I love the story. Mephisto is a very compelling villain....or is he? Anyway, try it for yourself. Despite my 100 hours on here I have another 300 on xbox. I'll be playing this for many years to come.

Got a 1Gb/s fiber. Ping to battle.net is 2ms on average. Yet when playing Diablo 4, average latency is around 70ms and quite often it lags so hard that its unplayable. Screw you Blizzard for forcing me to connect to your shi*** servers when I just want to play a single player game.

Fun little ARPG that doesn't require a PHD in Autismology to make a good character.

I wish i could flag this game recommendation as "maybe". If you like the world of diablo then you will likely have an advantage in recommendation. With that said lore heavy fans could also be turned off with occasional story choices. It can be mindless fun to a degree but with other options available (and cheaper) like Grim Dawn, Path of Exile 1 and 2 I can only really recommend this if you like the world of sanctuary already AND it's on sale.

Stop this always online BS. Give us a fucking offline mode. The multiplayer features are bare bones, and are just there to justify the predatory store that had a game built around it.

It is Diablo. People will complain. People will play it. Some will love it, some will hate it. I like it, look at my hours. It basically is a game I play because I have played Diablo since the original came out back in the 90's. It kills time and I don't have to think too hard. Brings back memories of playing Diablo 2 with friends of mine that are no longer with us or got a stick up their butt because they hooked up with some lame gal that told them how to be so they could get laid and they vanished.

If you buy this game because you heard it's a good Single Player campaign with a flawed end-game and might be worth picking up for the story alone - be warned: In a way, you heard correctly, the game has a very well crafted Single Player campaign with lots of content that is worth exploring, there is just one problem: If you play this game as an RPG on your first playthrough including all the very well made side-quests you may encounter, the game will become laughably easy if you have any experience with the genre and know how to use synergies. I used no guides whatsoever and haven't played another Diablo style game in half a decade and I ran through the second half of the campaign one shotting every single normal dungeon boss and defeating story bosses within seconds. The game prohibits you from increasing the difficulty mode on your first playthrough beyond a certain threshold that is far too low. This severely diminishes the quality of the experience you are going to have. I have no idea why Blizzard capped the difficulty mode in 1st playthrough because it ruins a very well made Single Player experience for new players.

Great for a sleep aid. Knocks me out like a light. You run around collecting stats, not items. I remember when ARPG items had weight and heft.... when items had real identity. A time when you knew exactly which pieces you were wearing and how you had acquired them. In this, you are just staring at numbers and stats the whole time. Makes me sad...and so sleepy.
