Diablo 4 has to be my favourite ARPG of all time, i dont give away 10/10 lightly, but i legitimately don't think there is a better ARPG for me out there. The Compaign is legitimately interesting and engaging, skilltrees make me feel like i have actual freedom in creating my own build for my character. I am a huge fan of seasonal updates, because they bring reason to come back to the game and play more of something i love. My favourite part is gameplay, especially on sorcerer, but i think everything about the game is worth praise: Music, sound design, visual design, aesthetic, skilltree, enemy variety, world events (Helltide, World Boss, Headhunt) and everything else i forgot to mention. The skins in the shop are some of the priciest on the market, yes, but the beautiful craftsmanship, ability to change colors, ability to mix-match certain parts of armor with others make it actually feel worth the 26$ pricetag.
It's also fun playing with other people, but i'm having a blast even though i mostly play alone.
Considering the base game is more often on discount than not, i definitely would say it's worth the price.
Diablo IV has set the golden standard for what a modern Blizzard game should be. It is not only a fantastic Diablo game but gives us a glimpse that the once-beloved publisher still has that magic that it was most well-known for in years past.
The first version of Diablo 4 is a canvas on which the developers could, over the months, paint a true masterpiece. The equipment and progression system is extremely robust and lends itself well to the significant innovations that the team plans to implement in the production lifecycle, through patches and expansions. If Blizzard manages to keep the attention high on the title and make the right changes, we could be faced with a new milestone in the action RPG genre.
Theory-crafters, lore hounds and newcomers can all find something to love about Diablo 4 — as long as their interests converge on beating demons to death. Gruesomely satisfying combat, expansive skill trees and a bustling open world make Diablo 4 a delightfully gory way to kick off summer, and a must-play for ARPG fans.
But despite the rewarding interplay between various stats and buffs, and the laudable sensation that, even very early on, you have access to the sort of freedom in character and combat customisation that’s typically locked away for hours in similar games, Diablo 4 feels … toylike. Strip away the hellish screams and scarily convincing Halloween costumes, and what’s left is the video game equivalent of hyper-palatable junk food, albeit with myriad colourful warnings on the packaging.
It would appear that most of the negative reviews are coming from basement dwelling game addicts who came from Path of Exile and expected to be able to sink 14,000 hours into this game as well. Diablo 4 has a fantastic story, interesting boss fights, and a combat system that feels so good, the developers are absolute wizards for pulling it off. You can play through the campaign with multiple classes and get an entirely new experience every time. If you're just creating a new character, skipping the story and grinding "endgame," go play WoW or some other trashy live service game. That's not what Diablo was, and that's not what Diablo is now. Stop whining about it.
Another Diablo game XD. The story is great, as the biggest content part is multiplayer i'll focus on endgame. Altough every Diablo game'sis focused on grindind, i didn't have as much fun on Diablo IV as i had on Diablo III, things don't fell as intuitive as they felt on Diablo III. If you didn't play any of Diablo's games, i would recommend start with this one
FYI, I am not a Blizzard shill and apologist. Tried it out during their free weekend. Do not get Diablo IV if you want a single player experience. Didn't like my starting class so I deleted it to try another class, well now I am not allowed to do the main story prologue anymore and teleported me straight to a town (not even the same one) with no direction, no main story quests, with a bunch of other players running around, with no idea on what to do next. Talk about disorienting and confusing. They don't want you to play the story, they want you to do daily grinds and waste money on in-game purchases, so lame! At least I got to try it for free and didn't waste my money.
Really tried to like this game, the combat is fun and the campaign was solid. But the campaign was short and the ending was rushed. The endgame is much better than Diablo 3, but the ability to trade really ruins the point of farming anything.
