I quite like D4, planning to play it quite a lot this year. Will be diving into the game a lot more on our new channel, if you want more regular in depth coverage, check it out https://www.youtube.com/@Drop_Rate

i have never played diablo before and liked diablo 4. Probably im gona buy it.

Nope

Played the beta but it didn’t hook me, it’s missing that special something. Will play/replay Diablo 2 Resurrected until I get tired of it.

Diablo 3 is the worst game ever made, and the people invested in it are shitting on diablo 4

The level balancing thing sounds really silly because what’s the point of leveling up if everyone can just fight anything at any level from what I understand from what you said.

all these kids crying about build diversity IT WAS A BETA everything is not in the game. have not even seen the unique items in the game. calm down judge it after the game comes out

Its ironic that the things wow got hate for is what i love and not having it in other games is ruining them for me. Like PoEs exp loss on death ruins the game. Ive never made it to level cap because I refused to take part in the pay2win of path of exile. IMO even if your paying with virtual currency trading to get gear to make your build work is still pay2win. And if you dont follow a perfect build guide you are heavily punished. you can lose hours of exp progress by hitting a brick wall for you class and dying 5x to some 1 shot mechanic happening off screen. And thats with me heavily focusing on resistance and survivability stats.

diablo 4 is a random game like grimdown or torchlight tbh
not payng that much for this game, probably gonna play it only when it is on a very very low price just for couch fun with a friend

Hey @Force Gaming! You’re my absolute favorite youtuber and I DESPERATELY need a video from you reviewing Remnant 2, please?!?!?!

“Everyone hates diablo 4”
Everyone: *crickets*

I actually don’t hate Diablo IV, I really liked it, however, there are a few issues, like Dodge cool down is a bit overkill, enemies are too fast and too many to have a cool down, character movement is sluggish and slow, combat movement is slow in comparison to the enemy, there are a few other minor things, over all the demo was fun and loved the game play,I know that was an older version and looking forward to its release!!!👍

I dislike d4 because it feels like they took d3, and opened up all the doors and said go outside into the world. you get the same repetitive loot, Doesn’t feel exciting when you get drops, and you only have like 5 things that drop… gold, some gems, armor, and some weapons. Very exciting… No stat allocations, only learning curve would be what skills you take for pvp. The game gives the vibe that each class will have 1 build and the rest of the skills wont even be touched because it will never keep up with the only good build. Lower level chars can come and clear your dungeon faster than you because they scale to their level. leveling up borderline feels worthless until you reach the next tier of skills.

I thoroughly enjoyed the beta, but the power scaling was very weird. Not consistent at all.

In full respect I feel people what criticize it are rather accustomed to other games and so rather nitpicking because D4 is not fully arpg but is mixed with MMO so it is kind of unique game and critique based on direct comparisons with PoE or D2 is bad as D4 try to be different game (let call it mmo-arpg 🐱 ) and imo it nails it. What this means that is somewhat less action, there is less enemies but they are stronger – seems good for me because enemies even could be stronger imo and very rarely I needed to use healing potion (playing solo on veteran ). There is less enemies on map so there is more room to breath than constantly fight (for example not linear dungeons – but you must most of the times penetrate left and right part of dungeon to activate something or find key – and going back to center gate give you few seconds of rest from constant fighting ). About dungeons – I don’t felt that dungeons are exactly the same (I heard similar complains in other games so it seems it is subjective matter what changes in dungeons make people feel that dungeons feel less similar ). Items – some people afraid of this because we don’t know for 100% how it will be but Bllizard already told that there will be less drops and be also rare items – so it rather should be good. Skill tree is imo is not issue but for bigger convenience it should be not vertical but horizontal to not need use scrolling up/down. It is normal at this stage that game is not properly balanced but this sooner or later will be addressed like in any game like this. If I was nitpicking I would say dynamic shadows was bugged but this can be disabled in options and I am not sure if story would be really great (yes it was dark and interesting but some stuff keep me wandering if it not lacks logic or is oversimplified ). Endgame – this is big question as we only know some things and not exactly how it will be but I have hope that they manage it. Vram leak (crashing when in options are high textures even 12gb vram cards ) I suppose will be fixed fast if it isn’t already but even this wasn’t big problem because game don’t looks much worse even on low textures.

“As you level up, you feel like you’re getting weaker.” This is the number one reason why I did not like this game.

Came here to down vote and leave.

Everyone I know, ie real gamers, really enjoyed the beta and are looking forward to launch day…

i wanted d4 to bring me back into games, i really did. it’s the biggest dissapointment ever.

It had a lot to live up to but didn’t deliver. One thing is they only brought the world boss out like 12 times over the two beta weekends and I never went in with enough people to beat it. The world felt empty the gameplay was repetitive but not in a fun way like D3.

I quite enjoyed what was available, so am looking forward to doing so for a good while.

Haters gonna hate i loved the beta on ps5 60fps in 4k amazing, minmaxers can go fuckthemself cya.

Holy click bait! Everyone…& I mean everyone, I’ve talked to about D4 – is raving about it. Didn’t watch your video, because can’t stand the crap click bait tactic (Asmongold tactic).

hates? I played the beta, thought it was 8.5-9/10 game and that was just the beta alone. I expect it to impress me more when full game is out.

The majority of people do not play POE through STEAM 😀

I generally disagreed with most of the feedback from these ARPG pundits, and their suggestions were mostly awful. A lot of them couldn’t even slap a decent Druid build together, it was so pathetic to watch. Most of them also missed the major point that D4 is an MMO Lite, not just an ARPG. Disregarding these muppets, I would say that the PLAYER feedback was overwhelmingly positive.

Upscaling is essential, and no you don’t feel weaker as you level, you feel a lot stronger.

I like the game. I hate that it’s an MMO. I got really sick to my stomach when I saw a side quest to “greet and cheer up the soldiers” and then again later when I had to “find ten ghoul liver”. The overworld is a laggy piece of shit, enemies spawn around you like bad monster closets, it’s basically devoid of anything to do other than follow the map for a dungeon entrance, other players wandering around MY game added nothing and cluttered up MY game experience, the events and bosses being trapped behind timers is horrendous feeling.

I didn’t want an MMO. I wanted more Diablo 3 combat but with a better written story and a slightly more cohesive end game experience other than raiding a rift. Instead I got World of Warcraft, but it’s smeared in blood. I won’t be playing on launch because I know for a fact their servers sucked on every single online only game they have ever made, their servers sucked during the beta, and they’ll suck on release. How can I give this anything other than 4/10, when only maybe half the game is good and the other half just sucks.

Stop falling into Blizzard’s bullshit.

diablo2, a game that came out literally 20 years ago, is objectively better in almost every single way. what’s up with that?

For me it was the copy and paste enemies from D3. Hell even one of the main bosses is also a butcher!?

They will not remake the game to add more depth. More hardcore elements. That would require them to remake the game. Cause you are talking about problems with the core gameplay. Which is design for mass mindless non gamers. Blizzard is after the normies. Not gamers.

I think we’ll all enjoy the game at start but i don’t dare to believe the endgame is gonna keep us long in the game. With such short ability variety and levling scaling it’s doubtful the game will last. Hope im wrong lol

Level and power scaling definitely was a let down, it wouldnt have been as much of a problem but the skill and dodge timers are too long for the pace of the fights. If I could use dodge at will that would make more sense with bosses in dungeons that can one shot you fairly easily. It seemed as if the scaling was geared towards multiple players rather than solo play.

I hated D3, so skipping D4 and the cell phone games.

As someone who is just getting into the series and is currently binging diablo 3 I am extremely excited after trying the beta. The hard-core diablo fans are like maybe 30% of the audience of the game.

Game is garbage people will play it a few weeks after launch and then it will be forgotten and abandoned just like D3 this game isn’t worth 20$ yet alone freaking 70$ when POE is better and free and POE2 is coming out soon if D4 wasn’t made by blizzard it would be DOA but the fanboys will defend whatever garbage this company puts out

This isn’t the world where there’s no competition and garbage like D3 does well because there’s literally no other game Last Epoch and POE are way better than D4 and it’s not even close and those games won’t be abandoned after 1 month unlike D4

Typical YouTuber! Clickbait thumbnail for Diablo 4 with a rating of 4/10, and then a 19-minute video consisting of 5 minutes of WoW, 5 minutes of POE, and 5 minutes of ads. In order to get everyone to click on my video, I deliberately mislead people with the title and rating, but I never actually explain why Diablo 4 is unplayable, because a 4/10 game is unplayable!! The dungeon isn’t good, the level scaling isn’t good, but is that really a reason to trash a game? It’s shameful!

A Diablo game without Crusader/Paladin XD

if you buy the game you will be buying a half asses game
it will be an unfinished product
there is too many problems with the game
and there is no way any company can redesign a game and fix and patch shit in 2 months
its impossible

diablo immortal actually has tons of content
d3 has lots
poe has 1000s going for it when it comes to content

and as far as leaked gameplay goes for latest builds the game is very lack lustre and does not satisfy at all
so like i said
this game is far from finished and needs atleast another year to be fixed up

I totallly agree. I’m one of those “not hardcore ARPG” people. I actively dislike POE, calling it Path of Economics because the most important dynamic int he game was the economy. I play D3 (and D2 and D1 before it) solo. All those “nice complexities of social interaction” that hardcore fans seem to like, I actively dislike. For me, the jury is still out on D4. What I played seemed like a prettier (and MUCH shinier, lol) version of D3. So the question in my mind is, “Would I pay the money for a graphics upgrade?”.

In terms of people new to the genre, I think the game is reasonably approachable. If they’d tone down the shine factor by about 3, it’d be very pretty. As always, I think they could do better differentiating irrevocable decisions from ones you can change. All games that I’ve ever played suffer from this. But overall, and coupled with Blizzard’s massive advertising budget and solid name recognition, I expect D4 to be a success, no matter what “hardcore ARPG fans” think.

I feel like you were paid by Blizzard

Just remake Diablo I and give us multiplayer.

Diablo IV is only Diablo in name. It is no longer an ARPG… it is now a looty-shooty MMO… just a lil less shooty and a lil more slashy. Diablo II is still the king of ARPG. Diablo IV… is just an utter disappointment.

game is meh nothing is new it is just aspects of d3 and lost ark mixed into a game. melee is garbage and class design seem extremely lazy. it still bewilders me that blizzard literally set the bar with d2 and nothing has reached its level of well done. d2 has its minor issues but LOD was just good period. D3 was a massive back step and D4 seems even worse. POE is close but overly complex class builds can be annoying but also adds to variety so thats a whatever.

this game is not evenr remotely close to being worth $70+ I highly doubt ill even purchase this at all and that kinda sucks. I want to like it but nothing is really drawing me in again especially at a $70+ price tag.

Judging by your own comments section this video looks a lot like desperate clickbait

I really don’t get the leveling scaling concern. At no point during my necro or sorc play-thru’s did I get this feeling. I think the issue people are seeing are undertuned melee classes, probably just exacerbated by the level scaling.

I liked it, I am worried about itemization, pretty much legendaries are just something to extract and trash it. And the repetitive dungeons, Simmons suck.. for Druid and necro,
But Sorc felt amazing. So let’s see how it goes

It looks like I’m looking to Batman vs Superman movie like stuff when I see this Diablo 4 stuff coming up right now… I hope a lot of improvements to the game from Blizzard to finally bring Diablo game back to live.

Diablo IV is uninteresting.
https://youtu.be/UzMBimoRSkY
Incredible world building and graphics but adopts an isometric perspective “just because the other ones did.”
Should have been 3rd Person camera (like WoW or ESO) That way all the grunt-filled storyline and long cinematics you endure only once would have been more dramatic. The game play would have been 100% more exciting.
Baldur’s Gate III will crush it this year. I believe Diablo IV (Sorry John and Gavian) is not bold enough. What we have now is a higher fidelity dial up modem.

Who actually gives a flying fuck what other people think about something if you enjoy it? When will we ever get to the point again that it doesn’t matter what others think? Just play the game for what it is or don’t. We don’t need to keep seeing videos talking about how some people are hating on something and how they should or shouldn’t.

i played many game like this from D1, D2 , D3 and many MMO , last epoch , lost ark , path of exile , ff14 , rappelz ..many more …but i always came back to diablo game style when i played D4 i pretty enjoyed it alot. yeah dungeon seems same style but the game ain’t release yet and normaly there a lvl 2 but in this game have a lock door instead of a lvl 2. i didn’t mind it really fun …. the only thing for me missing is the option to see which quest you completed and have map discover little by little instead of section by section. when trying to find hided quest or lilith by tracking where you went its a bit hard .. but the rest of the game is crazy good and i know i’ll stick to it for many years like i did with D1 – D2 – D3 that are still installed on my PC(D1-d2) – Xbox(d2r-d3) and switch(d2r-d3) . XD

I stopped playing most live service games, the only one I play still is csgo it cause of the gameplay. But I have spent more time thes past month making art, learning 3d, learning to shoot with my left foot, trying to sing. I even unused to most gaming channels. I have so many games that not many new games interest me anymore. I do have 300 gamea wishlisted on steam but most of them im probably not going to play.

Click bait,, everybody loves diablo IV I got withdraw I wanna play the game now

Idk about this frame that everyone or even most in the ARPG community hates D4 at all. Yeah there has been a fair bit of criticism like you point out. But even from those people most of them enjoyed the game and think it will at least be good. I think most of the ARPG creators really enjoyed themselves but the Kripparians of the bunch who are much more into more hardcore variants like POE rates the game a little lower than the averaged consensus.

And I don’t that popular means good. I’m sure there were mmos that were superior to wow in many ways. Blizzard is great at making huge games and had the name and resources to make it big and accessible.

All in all I think D4 will be a great experience and a pretty decent to good ARPG. Even if I agree with a lot of the criticisms. The game looks and feels so great to play that it boosts the experience by a lot, even with some suboptimal or “watered down” systems. And since everyone you know will be playing it most likely that will factor in as well.

Level scaling, non tradeable items, diablo 3 combat, skill tree stolen from poe, battlepasses, always on, no single player… So many reasons to hate this game my whole clan dropped d4 for last epoch.

Just give us world of warcraft

Good Good that was I wanted to hear. Like everyone hate it and like everyone say Diablo IV gonna flop very hard. Very good thing. its time Blizzard will be no more at this point. There glory state is over when they stop doing Starcraft game. Good news to see Diablo IV is already a failure like 3 month before its release

At least, 4 is better than 2 & 3,
less grinding, some QoL changes

The difference in complexity between WoW and Diablo is enormous, so WoW as a dumbed down MMO still had a ton of substance.

Diablo is brain dead gameplay, so dumbing that down leaves almost nothing

Characters are ugly as frickin hell. Someboody wake me up and tell me the characters don’t really look like this. I feel like I’m in the twilight zone or something. Seriously these character designs are straight trash.

The druid really REALLY showed the cracks with the game and the itemization. They basically ripped the same HORRIBLE ideas that D3 had and put that into D4. They made the class skill tree AWFUL and in order to ‘fix’ it, you need to get the correct legendaries. WHY THE FUCK did they bring back the same dogshit legendary ‘set’ items into the game again???? Why are we going down this road again?

Funny you have to relate to click bate titles rather than good content.

This is bullshit, the game is good!

you look like a Diablo

i played the beta and the classes were incredible , the level system was great , very similar to assassins creed Odyssey which i like , the loot is the same as previous diablo games! I like how they utilize the need to take on unique bosses in different areas of the world with other people but im not a fan of the loot system , other people can take your loot if an item drops , if its really good and ur class , they are free to take to all classes , i dont exactly know it works all the way around but if its like that , it could use some work , maybe a patch can fix that and take care of the loot system , other than that the game seems fine , i noticed the horse glitch when the guy gets on the horse in town before it says “Welcome to the Beta!” , He gets on the horse backwards but rides it forwards , that can use a fix…

Nice click bait 😂

Every “hardcore” fan of a genre was once a casual fan of the genre and what I’m hearing is this game won’t make casual fans into new hardcore fans.

I liked the mix between old and new ideas. I only played druid though. Trying to do werebear against elites or bosses was very arduous. It was very disappointing to struggle against a tough enemy for another character that is lower level to almost one shot it. And the poison mechanic is awful, especially since movement was slow and dodging had a 5 second recharge. I absolutely hated that. On that, I don’t like the cool downs on skills.

Other than that it was generally really fun.

Wait wait wait…..you were a freshman in college when WoW came out? You look 30…lmfao wtf. Nah u lyin

Everyone else seems to love it..

Played the beta, game was absolutely amazing lmao… Done research into what they’re doing with their live service and things coming and it’s got a very bright future. June 2nd can’t get here quick enough tbh.

Good video, going over all the different takes and then adding your own meta take ontop of that, looking forward to the D4 content

Unless youre a technical player, all of these “issues” are negligible. You’d have to spreadsheet most of these technicalities or actively compare multiple charcter bulids both personal and sampled at a developer level and the masses dont do that at all.
I find it interesting that no one ever provides (with anywhere near the same details as the scrutiny) solutions of models that work. I think if THAT where the culture of content creators there would be a shift in product quality.

Everyone I know who played, including myself – loved it

I didn’t get to play much as it kept crashing. There was massive memory leaks and even brought my graphics card up to temps that made me question the quality of devs they hired. 36gb of ram and had page file set to 18gb, I had to up the page file to unlimited, which stopped the crashing but not the random disconnects or crashes after portalling back to town, the throttling that occurred as my card reach concerning temps. At least my cpu hovered at 53 Celsius and didn’t spike.
I won’t be playing when it is release and will sit back and hope they patch those issues. Till then I’ll go back to steam and gamepass library.

I played the beta and I loved it!! I went in skeptical but was pleasantly suprised. It feels like it still needs much improvement, but the beta was limited. I got all characters to level 25, both weekends, farmed most of their legendaries, tried their metas, farmed Ashava, etc. Still found it all great and fun playthrough as a tease. The big issue I have with the beta is they allowed Necro, Sorc and Rogue to use their specializations (Book of the Dead, Enchantments and Rogue Combo/Inner Sight) yet did not allow us to try Barb and Druid specials (Expertise Quest and Spirit Boon Quest)! How can we test out 2 nerfed characters against 3 un-nerfed chars? Makes no sense at all! Other than that, hyped for D4 release in July!

Everyone doesn’t hate d4, people waited in a que for over an hour to play. It’s people like this that complain and complain til the game industry changes the game these people didn’t make a game like blizzard has for years. Their entitled little biothes their parents should have raised them better. To complain about a game that’s not exactly how you want it to be lol put the controller 🎮 down get a girlfriend and a life.

Streamers and their echochamber who claim that the Druid needs to be just as OP as Necro and Sorc should uninstall the game and f*ck off. THe fun you have clearing dungeons without any gear blindfolded while doing math equations, yeah so much fun Sorc and Necro. Blizzard again made a horrible game lol. PD2 for me to continue, f*ck this game, no challenge at all.

diablo 4 is the same exact game as d3. The same rune system, the same boring quests, the same easy monsters, the same shitty scaling to force artificial difficulty. Refunded my copy after playing the beta. PoE 2 looking really good right now. History’s gonna repeat itself.

No they don’t. But if streamers say so it must be true.

*Too many effects?* Anyone else think there’s too much going on during battles to fully appreciate? Particularly in parties.

I played the beta with 3 friends and even with very low level characters the screen was just awash with lighting effects. Hard to appreciate my own character or individual enemies.

Seems to be a trend in the Diablo series. Each sequel lights up your screen 50% more!!

No one hates number 4? Unless they are new players. All the old players love it. I’ve been playing diablo since the 4rd one came out and beat the old ones and grinded and it’s an amazing game. I think people just don’t understand what beta means

The game is very vanilla and marketed to a wider audience. It works just look at World of Warcraft. All the other “real” MMO’s are gone and dead while Blizzard is still making bank off their vanilla style games. Not everyone wants to micro that hard they just want “dumbed down” fun and that is what Blizzard is giving.

I hate that the game looks like D3, nothing left of the visual style of D2 and D1, is it because of the chinese market again?

Beign an old-time D2 fan i must say i didn’t like what i felt during the open beta. I’ve put a lot of thought into why exatly. My criticism can be divided in two categories: 1) things that can be fixed and probably will be; 2) things that can be fixed but probably won’t be
While the problems of first category are well talked about in the community – balance problems, level scaling between hero and mobs and so on, i cant find so much talking about the second category, which i found very much ruining the classic diablo experience for me, so here it goes:
1) Mobs proportions. D2 seemed way more restrained when it comes to the size of the monsters relative to the hero – the big ones were much rarer, and the biggest (Duriel and other act bosses) were not so big in comparison to those of D4. These gigantic mobs create the overall cartoony feeling.
2) i can’t feel any “weight” to the mobs. They dont feel like something made of bone, flesh and armor, they feel more like balloons that i pop by clicking on them once of twice. One of the first big ones i encountered was a giant bear that was bigger than Duriel from d2, and i killed him just by few clicks. Ridiculous
3) field of view and character size on screen. The camera is way to close to the hero. I can’t see normally up and down, it feels like i’m wearing a bucket on my head and can see only what’s under my feet.
4) terrible UI, the screen is overloaded by chunks of it – why do i need to see mob health above the mob as well as at the top of the screen? Why do i need to see the those damage numbers popping out of every hit? i can intuitively understand my damage by seeing the mob health bar dropping. I want to see the clear picture of battle, with hints that are represented not by text and tooltips, but by visual hints in the special effects.

I love D4, cant wait for it too launch.
Its awesome for us casual gamers:D

You were troolling with your comments about Asmongold, right? I just visited his channel, looks like he mostly reacts to other people’s content? Extremly obnoxious, nagtive guy.

“Predictable” unlike what? D2 maps have like 3-4 variations that are easy to tell, d3 has no map variations and everything is the same every time, and in PoE maps are a bit varied other then end goals being in the exact same place every time. PoE especially is literally just hold right click until entire map is dead. Dont get me wrong, i love all 3 games, im just saying that calling the gameplay loop predictable is extremely hypocritical.

ok you dont care about diablo so dont cover it

I am more looking to PEO2 than D4.

I’m not a huge fan of the itemisation. I was surprised how little I enjoyed the barbarian compared to the rogue which was a blast. I’ll probably main lazy necro to start, but I’ll max every class as usual. Dungeons felt empty and samey. Balance will get cleaned up I imagine. I’m excited.

Just another click bait YouTuber. No one said this game was bad!

It felt more like a mobile game to me. Every single dungeon was repetitive. Item drops were boring and weapons were mostly unusable for my character. (Played a sorcerer, but got weapons I couldn’t use)

I didn’t like the fact that you couldn’t telport back to your location after breaking down gear either. I found myself getting bored with the game and I wasn’t even grinding, just trying to complete basic quests.

It’s a stunning game can’t wait to play 🫡

D4 MMO hack and lag 😂

1:41 there are just a few people I hate in Youtube, and Asmongold is one of them, he’s such a cynical jackass, I can’t stand him

blizzard shill

Meh, I’ve played all the Diablo games. I played the open beta to level 20 and had fun. It’s a beta. I’ll judge it when it come out.

this was an old beta lol. blizzard said this beta was for just a stress test. People need to calm down!! The QUEUE was only on friday lol and if there was a queue on saturday or sunday it was under 5 min.

I think the reason Blizzard is making these choices is because they don’t need to cannibalize their two ends of the ARPG market. Diablo Immortal and D2 (original and remastered) cover both ends of the casual to hardcore market. They really are aiming for that sweet spot in the middle.

I heard devs might invite you YouTube bums who are out here trying to ruin the game for everyone else by complaining you can’t one shot everything “because I feel weaker waaa waaa waaa”. How about y’all talk about important things like balancing the builds better or added something simple like more body type options so we all don’t look like the same male rogue. Idk just simple things.. leave the gameplay ALONE.

For me, pvp is the most important aspect, i know that’s not the main thing in an ARPG, but if Diablo 4 has good pvp, i don’t care about anything else.

My new hobby is hitting “do not recommend this channel” to anyone who uses asinine clickbait thumbnails that appear in my feed. Congrats on being today’s 😊

I thought it was awesome. Brought me back to the original Diablo which I loved. Not much of a fan of D2 and D3. I cant wait to play a lot of it.

I never played Diablo, and I was addicted. Enemies being adjusted to your lvl might be problematic. ppl said defensive maneuvers are at its best ever but you can’t kill a boss with “1000 cuts” so I’m confused to what they meant

This should be named poe veterans dislike diablo 4

Gunna say, before listening, I have yet to see a bad review. I loved the beta test myself. Keep trying to log in hoping that it is secretly back up…

Everything these guys are saying it’s great to know but isn’t that the point of a beta to push this out so that there can be upgrades and improvements

You have hardcore Diablo players that have been playing it since the first installment coming through a bit jaded. Maybe it’s burnout. I thought it was okay but. It’s not as dynamic or action packed as it needed to be in the beta to capture the masses but then again… Diablo isn’t for the masses if I’m being honest.

Man lying

What are talking about ? The majority of the beta reviews were really positive.

I’ve never played any diablo game until this weekend. Can’t really compare it to the older Diablo games but I couldn’t stop playing, it was reaally good and I enjoyed the free beta 😀 but I won’t pay 80€ for a game wtf

I’ve played all of the Diablo games (I thru III) to completion on multiple hardness levels. Diablo IV sucked to me. It was boring. It was zoomed in too close to the player as compared to Diablo III. And YES — the further I progressed, the more difficult it became even when going back to earlier sections of the game. It is not ready. Also, when recrafting some of your weapons, it doesn’t even tell you what the possible random attributes are, nor do you know if your particular existing attribute is already a high or low value. This looks sort of fine, but the game play really was horrible. It did not always recognize my keystrokes and compared to D2 & D3 I found combat to be laggy. OH, and nearly every single time I left town the game rubber banded me back to the edge as soon as I moved about half a screen down the trail. I played Friday evening and Saturday. On Sunday, it kept kicking me out (along with a couple times of Saturday too). Yeah, I lost interest in it rather quickly which surprises me as I have been looking forward to D4 for several years now! I hope they delay and fix before the official release. I doubt this though because Blizzard is not the Blizzard of yester year and is instead actually Tencent –and they are just focused on making a buck instead of providing a great game and player experience.

A streamlined version of PoE, Last Epoch, Grim Dawn, etc. already exists, it’s called… Diablo 3. I don’t see the point of D4 if we’re just reskinning D3.

I could have told you all it would suck.

do you have a source of people hating wow in 2004? People hating wow in 2004 were like 2 but people hating d4 is a decent amount. What are you even on about.

DAOC freeshard servers are still better than WoW.

After playing the beta, it doesn’t feel like a $70 game, especially with Path of Exile still sitting there.

Diablo 4 is 11 from 10, your video is 0 from 10, your sponsor this shit ridge is -1 from 10

I played both BETA weekends and already pre ordered it I enjoyed it the length of the dungeons and the Graphics were Awesome Looking forward for the Full Game Happy gaming Everyone.

Force, I have to say. I agree with your meta-take ENTIRELY. Imho blizzard is great at creating consolidated, polished experiences, that as a result can feel simplified.

Diablo is like terminator, 1 was bad quality graphics but a fun time .2 was amazing and all we want is a expansion of 2 that doesn’t try and change everything but continues with slightly small changes .

Only people who played druid think it sucked (cause druid was under powered). Game was good so far and I also plan on playing the hell out of it…

I hope everyone hates it. Queues won’t be as long.

More people are hyped for poe2 than d4.

Thank god you said my thoughts – I’m sick of hearing people complain about almost everything about the game.. the dungeons suck! The items suck! This sucks! it all sucks! It needs improvement! Jesus it just sounds like these people don’t like dungeon crawlers end of. It’s like it’s ‘cool’ for people to hate. THIS is a problem oh and THIS wasn’t good oh and THIS ?! what were they thinking. I’m not saying you can’t have a negative opinion of course you can, but everyone in my circle had a great time playing it and are so hyped for it. Hearing negative opinions is valid and essential for game improvement but… I dunno.. maybe it’s because I don’t have a hardcore ARPG background..

I’m not saying that diablo IV couldn’t be improved – I had my issues with it as well. But jeez I LOVED the open beta! They did so many things right. Returning to the darker routes of D2, I tried all the classes and they were all fun – even barbarian and I Normally hate that class but even I enjoyed it. The art style is BEAUTIFUL. Holy crap the number of times I just stopped walking to admire the views – both inside and out of dungeons. The story is compelling – I am so excited to do the next two acts.

Yes okay druid is underbalanced but you know what, it was still my favourite class. I hope it gets some love, I really do, and that necros get a nerf.. but the aesthetic and feel of the druid is very well done in terms of the RPG aspect of it. It was exactly what I was hoping for. Plus okay druid seems underbalanced but don’t forget we only got to level 25. Druids also don’t get their animal spirit boons yet.. I mean okay they should still be a bit stronger, and I agree, I hate the fact spirit doesn’t passively regen, but in the grand scheme of things it’s difficult to judge when you can’t level being that, because if you could it puts it into a whole different perspective.

Personally I never had an issue with dungeon repetitiveness… it’s a DUNGEON crawler game there are only so many ways to make a damn dungeon, jesus, what are people expecting. HAVING said that.. I did see a couple of ‘copy and paste’ rooms in dungeons, that I do think is a bit lazy. Especially when the furniture and items inside are also copy-paste – fortunately this wasn’t a big enough issue for me to not have fun however and it wasn’t that obvious but yes that was a bit lazy. Nevertheless I don’t really care what shape the dungeon is.. because dungeons are ultimately the same idea – you go in, you kill, you do the objective. I want fun combat – Check. I want lovely artwork – Check. I want interesting stories – Check the side quests were also very fun to do and really added to the world. I really don’t care if I have to go right or left or walk in a circle or go up or down stairs. I don’t care at all what shape the dungeon is – they still felt pretty damn different to me lol. And if you need to farm a dungeon for any reason – then you need to farm a dungeon. Either you’re going to find that repetitive or not the dungeon design isn’t going to change much about that..

Can’t take what you say seriously when you end the video saying I’m going to be making a new channel specifically for d4 coverage😂😅

It doesn’t matter to 99% of the players.. unfortunately this is mostly content creators going REEEEEEEEEEEEEEE NEW GAME ISNT LIKE THE GAME I LIKE.. gimme views. Mrllama was by far the worst at this and always has been. He is a Diablo2 boomer who hates change and anything new. And I do enjoy most of his content.. but fuck he was bad to listen to about D4

Diablo 4 better than diablo 3. Diablo 3 is super borring

what a bad video

Everyone: meaning people that spend 100 hours in a couple of days playing a beta. Me as a casual player, and as 90% of the player base… It’s perfect

The # you used for concurrent players on PoE isn’t accurate, although the true number is still smaller than blizz games.
The steam client is not used by a big chunk of PoE players because for many it was redownloading the entire game on patches, crashing, failing to update, etc… There were many issues that pushed people off of steam for PoE.
I think the concurrent players for the most popular realm was 270k in 2022 as per a post on the PoE forums from GGG. So the total is likely over 300k, not 150k.

Havent seen anyone hate diablo 4

I going play this game only for the story if it’s good… and buy when the sale is -60% ^^

delusional and objectively bad take
WoW was hated when it came out? LOL

delete your channel you have literally zero idea wtf you’re talking about

It’s funny that I tried the beta just to hate the game because I found Diablo 3 really boring. But instead I really liked it so far. 😄

no one hates it you are clickbait *ignored

Glad i never played this garbage like diablo 4 is.

They should delay the game for another year.

Trash. I’ll stick to my yearly Belzebub and MedianXL drug fixes.

Heeey a voice of reason in a sea of middle aged, self proclaimed professional arpg experts 😛
I have seen more honest, pragmatic, levelheaded opinions from the average variety gaming youtubers that those sadfaced “legends” and “pillars” of arpg communities.

Also you have to love the arrogance of dude like Kripparian when he said he is not planing to do any world firsts in d4 and therefore d4 will have no worth world firsts cuz he will not be taking part in them.

Can anyone tell me, if you pre-order, do you have access now and up until release or just when it realises?

Just some thoughts (that I’m sure people will roast, but whatever. I’ve been playing video games since BEFORE the Arari 2600, and as a “OG” gamer, these thoughts are based on my own experience. YMMV):

1. It was an early build preview in Act I of a larger game.
2. Not everyone WANTS a D2 clone. We already have enough D2-like games. D2 wasn’t perfect, and just because people love it doesn’t mean Blizzard needs to keep remaking it.
3. Everyone I know actually enjoyed the game FAR MORE than they did D3 in the Beta then.
4. I thoroughly enjoyed the call-backs to the earlier Diablo games, and although you think it’s not replayable, for me and my family/friends, we all agree that this game really will fit the bill for time-waster.
5. I don’t need it to be revolutionary; I just need it to be fun and well thought out and executed. My wife said, “This game is a love letter to Diablo and its fans.” I agree.

Way overpriced!!

The thing that bothered me the most in the beta was how much D4 feels like an mmorpg. I used to play gw2 and then poe afterwards and it made me realize how much i dislike so many things about gw2 and mmos in general. And blizzard is now introducing exactly these things that i hate into their ARPG.
– killing mobs feels meaningless because the main way to get xp and loot are objectives like quests, events or dungeons.
– leveling up and gearing feels meaningless because the mobs level up with you and even the best rare item that you can get at lvl 15 will be worse than any lvl 25 rare.
– your dps on world bosses is meaningless because you can just get carried by the people around you. You can stand around and occasionally autoattack and succeed or try your absolute hardest with a well geared character and fail. Your contribution is so tiny that it barely makes a difference.
– There is a lot of downtime where you just walk around. The towns are huge so it takes way too long to go from your stash to an NPC and in D4 there aren’t even waypoints next to events and dungeons so even more walking. And the fact that killing mobs on the way doesn’t give much loot/xp because all loot/xp comes from completing objectives makes this even worse.

d4 will be good midseason in POE

I fucking looooooved the beta. Even with the annoying rubber banding and some disconnects. NO MORE QUEUES! Sure it needs improvements here and there, but seems FAKE RAGE Youtubers are the norm. Negativity gets them views right? Bitches.

That something fresh, especially your favorite IP, copium hype.

Diablo 4 can be summarized with a Gordon Ramsey analogy. Why the fuck are you making a grill cheese when you have all these incredible ingredients. It’s clear as day that not much innovation is coming for Diablo 4. The beta made me just reinstall Lost Ark. Blizzard is just focused on monetization more than the core gameplay itself. The writings on the wall.

I don’t know what’s sadder, how you are so deep down your blizzard simpign hole that you are bringing WoW as a comparision to D4, despite both game having literally nothing in comon (both from the gameplay standpoint but also from a mechanical innovation standpoint) and aren’t developed by the same company.
Today’s blizzard is NOT the company that brought you WoW or diablo 2. Today’s blizzard is the company that brought you Diablo Immortal.

“See all these people that actually know wtf they are talking about? See how they have a lot of very valid complaints? Well yeah, but I dun care, I’m still HYPE dude! I remember when I was hyped for WoW and people were hatin dude! Dey WonG!”
8:44 “But let me cover my ass because I’m also a fens sitter than don’t want to be caught with my pants down, you see that whold 20 minute video I’m making to handwave people concern and valid points about D4? Well actually it’s not here to handwave them at all! Naaaah.”

Ok dude. Time to unsub I guess.
But I’m sure you will make a big boy video once the game is out, turned out to be a shallow piece of shit it’s obviously going to be to shit on the game for view, and then you’ll keep milking view making a dozen videos about the inevitable Diablo Immortal style milking this game will get.

The reason D4 is trash is the forced mmo components. It completely ruins the game.

I got a feeling diablo 4 is going to be spoiled with monetization hope iam wrong

I enjoyed the beta a lot. But for a 70 euros game, thinking that in 3 months will be out…and so annoying things happening? I’m just suspicious if they would be able to solve these issues like lagg, mele class problems, Lack in character customization, and so on ..like 4/10 might be too low, but not at all even an 8/10. Maybe with lower price…. Difficult decision!

It’s more simple and nothing really new. Diablo 3 has more to offer and that isn’t saying much.

I’ve never heard of people complaining tbh, love the Beta

I have been playing diablo since the original came out in ’96. While i do agree the mission structure and dungeon layouts need more variety, i dont understand the hate. I dont understand why people (a lot of diablo 2 fans) are upset that its “gone mmo”. Diablo 2 was online multiplayer, it was massive, semi open. I enjoyed the D4 betas. I am sad to go 2 months without it. Lol. I think it will be awesome no matter what the haters say. I pretty much think every game gets review bombed for the sake of clicks

Only managed to get through 7min of the review before stopping. Force Gaming’s mentality is the reason why supposed-AAA companies can get away with mediocre crap. Acti-blizz has been living off the hype from Blizzard North’s products. Wow really is inferior compared to the MMOs then (FF11online for example). D3 pales in comparison to D2 or PoE. D4 sucks because of its cheesy storyline, shallow skill system and lacklustre itemization/crafting. No amount of nostalgia or shilling, like what this video is attempting, is going to make up for it.

I’ve been playing games for over 30 years and when I booted up and played Diablo 4 during the open beta, know what really stood out to me? That I was having fun. Legitimate, unadulterated fun. I wasn’t looking up guides or anything else, but I was just moving through the game enjoying myself. It wasn’t perfect but it encapsulated that same feeling I had when I played WoW, FFXI, Diablo and Diablo 2. Gaming is my hobby, but I would never consider myself hardcore and I agree wholeheartedly with your sentiment, Blizzard is making a game that tries to appeal to the masses and there’s really nothing wrong with that.

Here is what I think of people (casual or hardcore streamer) with their opinions of D4. I could give any less f’s. I play games for my enjoyment. I enjoyed the nostalgia of D2, but it’s endgame is crap. D3 is alright, I think their seasons are pretty cool.

Level scaling doesn’t bother me much. I hate out leveling an area, but still having to progress though the story, getting 2 xp per kill. I don’t really care if a lower level can kill stuff faster than me, their game is not my focus, my fun is.
Sure, dungeons can get repetitive, but if the base dungeons are any indication, nightmare dungeons will be awesome.
Character balance, it’s level 25. You don’t balance a game around level 25, you balance it around a fully leveled character. I don’t understand this complaint.
Boss mechanics, it’s an ARPG where the community is mostly solo players. You can give a boss ridiculous mechanics and expect it to be downed by a hodge podge of players not grouped, with no tanks or healers.
Open World. IT’s not really an open world, it’s just a larger one, and other players are in it. I don’t mind seeing other players out in the world. I would enjoy if they instanced towns though, just for immersions sake.
MMO aspect. Really it’s MMO-lite. I stopped playing MMO’s, I enjoy single player games more. Quit WoW, partially into Shadowlands, and never looked back. I’m fine with MMO-lite, as long as I can complete 99% of the game solo. IF they start making more MMO like content, I will stop playing.

Finally. Saying it’s good or bad is a moot point. We only got to play a sliver of the game, and the beta was more abut large scale testing than anything else. Login servers in particular on console had a major hit to them. I was queued for over 24hours the first weekend before it got fixed. Large scale testing of bugs is essential. You can’t judge a game based on a beta test. So I take no one opinion seriously.

force gaming can you name one time streamers helped the average player .

streamers screw up every single game they touch with there opinions just look at destiny. every single gun nerfed because of PVP. fallout 76. cod every game past mw3 . hell mw2 they probably cried because it was easy to get Battle pass tokens so they nerfed that.

Diablo 4 was the truth. Tf is this?

you gotta remember you and streamers usually screw up more games for average players than do good.

I like the game itself but the lag and DC are really bad. I have really good internet and a decent pc. I even tried cranking everything down to low but it still didn’t help.

Why this shit title
Everybody I talked to and watched on Twitch was positive

Seeing an inclusion of a battlepass tells you all you need to know about the current state of blizzard. They have completed shifted to trying to net casual gamers which honestly feels like the direction they have headed since hearthstone came out. The pendulum has just swung really hard in that direction at this point. This is probably a good choice financially, just not a good one for people that like good games. I guess one can hope that they utilize all their battlepass money to pump put new content and character classes, but I’d rather just have them drop expansions that came alongside characters so I knew what content I was getting. I’m sure all of the younger generation will love having different colored spell effects and armor/ weapon transmogs and whatever other garbage is in the battlepass, I would personally rather have actual content, but to each their own. Overall D4 gameplay feels fine, but I would be hard pressed to say that the D4 beta was better than where diablo 3 currently stands with the exception being the graphics/ art direction of D4 being superior. Prettiness doesn’t really make or break an ARPG though, and I am skeptical that d4 gets anywhere near the level of ARPG quality that grim dawn, poe, or titan quest, or even torchlight 1 and 2 have for me, especially considering it will have no offline play capacity, no modding, and if D3 is any indicator few and far between content updates.

Not everyone hates d4

It will always get compared to Diablo 2. Its not the same game. But almost everyone will try to benchmark it. And well this is not even close to Diablo 2.

Was fun to play. Will play it until Throne and Liberty releases.

Beta?

What everyone hates ? Lol story of the world everybody is a hater ? I hate that u hate that I hate your hatred

It needs some character balance, other than that the game is awesome, and dont use word EVERYONE for your bait, no offence

Eh, maybe you’re right, maybe you’re not. But a lot of the ‘features’ you enjoy are ones I absolutely loathe. Let’s talk about the shared world. I want to play a video game to chill and relax after dealing with idiots and morons at work. I do *not* want to deal with idiots and morons while trying to de-stress from having to deal with idiots and morons. Nor do I want to get a ton of mailbox dancers, spambots, and other BS a shared world inevitably draws to it. I despise and loathe the MMO genre because I don’t like dealing with randos. I don’t want more of that in my ARPG, thanks.

Looks like I’ll stick to Grim Dawn.

I enjoyed it enough to finally pre purchase.

nope doesnt matter at all to me. no lifed beta and had a complete blast, love the game

It will be a GREAT game!

Click bait

TLDR
– I had “fun” but too many things is either lazy or a bit on the stale side, its kind of like knowing you can pull an A but you choose to do C+ cuz its way less effort, makes no sense to me in terms of taking pride in your work, and it also doesnt make sense on a buisness level, here is why the way i see it.
You either:
A) Build a quick game with bare minimum, capitalize quick cash, and hurt your reputation (people forgets in seconds anyways). That is the way to go for the entire industry if we all lower our quality, people will think this is the best we can do and have tried to do.
B) Throw serious money and talent at it, and generate a pillar that people for the next 1 or 2 decades will look on and go i have to play this at some point no matter if im interrested in this normaly or not, and in that way generate even more income over time far exceeding the initial cost/benefit, plus our reputation will get a stellar redemption.
They have the money to throw after a project that only AAA can possibly provide.

– Long version.
To have a good.. a really good game, you cant do bare minimum. I expect Blizzard to suit up and understand the previous titles are dated, you need more things you cant keep doing bland and bare minimum.
My complaints are many, the combat is actualy good(ish), they are on to something its not perfect but they got a few things right over other ARPGs (im worried for how world buffs and paragon will completely flip the scale in your favour on its own or just as bad be fluff that means nothing of true importance, hopefully its a give and take approach)
The endgame we havnt been shown from the dungeons we have seen, the boss mechanics so far are not super interresting and very samey. Blizzard with their WoW history of boss creations are extremely lacking here, compared to what we know the company can do.
Skills are upgraded to have very much d3 runic effects, not much super interresting, sometimes vital other times not so much. Not sure what to make of that in terms of how a skill can alter its nature or play well into something else.
Then theres the cinematics with ingame graphics (you HAVE to look at the character you created for whatever reason), again Diablo 1/2 cutscenes were absolutely amazing for their time, there were 1 cinematic per class you were and id be fine with that again here, they really dropped the ball here for what this company in particular has shown multiple times it can do. This is not your average skilled indie company after school 15-17 project , this is billions of dollars worth of acquireing skillful people to go above and beyond, and honestly they do not show the distance here.
The UI is indeed very unimaginative, the fonts are boring the way the items list abilities are clustered so badly, the delay on display of items cant be changed.
Kill animations not good either, kind of a shame seeins as you have lower amount of monsters to fight, no attention to amp that detail.
Gold, it does have some use, but you sink it into putting item effects on, i dont hate it but i also think they could go a little more out of the box, again being a billion dollar company, hireing excelent talent and creativity should be anything but a difficult feat, again with the simple amethysts and emerald stones, really boring socketing, one should think they would have learned a lot more lessons from D2/PoE/D3.
Mechanics are so far get a little light if you want to expand on them, you cant alter the range of close/distant atleast not yet (whatever the range is also thanks for the transparency there Blizzard in terms of what it even is in distance and how far that is and not showing dps close/distant respectively through advanced display). I dont wanna slander them too much on that subject, it can still go sort of well if they dont zombie on as per usual, again i doubt they will get this right if they dont show us they have changed as a company.

Overall i think people give companies of this magnitude way too easy a time when it comes to quality and perfections. Its mediocre as it as, and its bad for a company that pretty much pionered the genre, and even worse with the money behind them, i expected more lessons to have been learned from other games and especialy their own, i expected better polish especialy for a beta.
I doubt i will pay for this game until ive seen what endgame is like and what the game will offer there, if its the same D3 shit in a new shape of turd, i wont bother with this game. Also their asking price is silly, its greedy and its not a promising sign on its own. Plus their openess about their approach and direction hasnt been fantastic, they would not shut up about it if they were truely proud about what they intend to accomplish.
I dont hate the game but also dont love it, and that is a heavy concerning feeling i cant shake.

Yep, I don’t get it either. The game is 100% great to the vast majority of people who tried it. I streamed the game in the past two tests. I’ve probably played more games than anyone I’ve met on the planet. Let me tell you this. Diablo 4 is so good that it makes time go by much faster than almost any other game I’ve played. This is the hallmark of a great game. I ended up streaming 100 hours of the two betas. Each stream was almost 24 hours and each one felt like 6 hours to me. I played through hardcore with every character and didn’t blink an eye at restarting when I died. Just went oh well let’s go again. Hopefully the end game doesn’t suck.

D4 is leagues better than d3 those ppl are crazy.

im not sure how i feel about it tbh. like, im going to keep my pre order and play it and everything, but i wasn’t as wowed by it as i expected. played Sorc, Necro and Druid and just none of them really amazed me. The skills took a step back in their cool factor, the drill down trees for the skills were boring. nothing really changed how something worked. There’s a lot more skill points to be had and way more customization which is cool, but yea, nothing really made me think “man i cant wait to unlock that later skill, that sounds so badass”. Also, the game was stupid easy. Not sure if they’ll bump up the difficulty for launch, but I had no reason to dodge or kite or care about skill usage. health pots were everywhere. lastly, not really a fan of the open world and side quests and whatnot. i like to play Diablo for the campaign experience. the immersion. i dont feel as immersed with others running around. its not my story at that point. thats a feature for end game i feel. so it just felt like i was playing Lost Ark or something, which is fun, but not what I go to Diablo for.

I still don’t understand why you still cannot distribute attribute points manually to your character. I would much rather be able to mold my character into a dodgy, crit based, dual weilding maniac instead of a slow plodding sitting duck for all manner of ground based traps as a barbarian. Now I have to use skills that have to use all the different types of weapons that you can slot into the barbs inventory in order to stand a chance at the early levels.

I tried it and IMO its Meh and totally forgettable the UI looks like crap D2R is the champ of diablo games

Not sure why no one is mentioning the 3000% item drop increase set for the beta testing. Legendary items make or break each class and their builds in this iteration. What happens to he feel/fun of this game for someone who has poor luck no only with receiving legendary drops but further bad luck in getting drops that help their build?
Would be foolish to assume the devs will automagically address this issue properly and it can be the difference between “I had fun” and “this is terrible”.

There’s a lot of nitpicking, but overall it’s a solid game. The lack of a map overlay was the biggest concern I heard about, and that’s completely understandable. Aside from that, my biggest gripe is the chat box isn’t in the left corner, and if it’s a feature that can be changed, it’s not intuitive. There’s just so much stuff in the menus, it’s hard to navigate.

I learned something new today, neither force nor me got laid freshman year of college.

Take in consideration that even Diablo III sold more than 30 million units it still strugled to retain his players and is constantly overshadowed by Path Of exile in terms of Twitch populariry and annual earnings (PoE essentially banks ~40 million $ a year, whereas DIII at the moment probably costs money to Blizzard).

One minor nitpick is your comparison of concurrent PoE players using Steam stats. PoE has its own launcher and I suspect a majority of the player base still use this over Steam launcher.

shill

F end game id rather not sit at max lvl & do nothing zzZZzzz thay should add a reincarnation system loop like in DDO u can basically get sent back to lvl 1 but u get a Extra stat & skill points to spend :)endless growth

I actually got some pretty cool legendary items. One gave me two extra skeletal warriors, and the other made me practically invincible for damaging elites.

Honestly, Diablo 4 has been one of few games that I’ve been looking forward to and now that I’ve played it, I’m not disappointed. The beta was a ton of fun, despite the performance issues.

Never trust anybody at all when it comes to how fun a game is. You could be one of 10 people who actually enjoy it.

This is click bait as hell. Most people LOVE D4. Quit trying to incite panic.

played it and it was fine however i play lost ark so the combat of diablo was a slight letdown

DOYOU GUYS NOT HAVE PHONES??? 😊

Gee. You must be wrong. Angry Joe says it is a 10/10.

$109 AUD,
Battle Pass
Microtransactions.

Yeahnah

Definitely a crappy game.
Looks nice, plays nice, but is ultimately a shit game with shit mechanics.

why would you even look at Diablo when path of exile exist, and its free

It’s your typical game in the 2020’s everything is shitty now days and will never be as good as their previous games… respectively

I don’t think everyone hates Diablo 4, but I bet some of the people really hate how the beta bricked their cards

Bad business practice.. but who cares, as long as the game is good, right?

While more people will play this game as it is flashy with top-notch graphics and a cool campaign playthrough, I honestly think PoE is a better game with so much more depth and options for diverse builds. Of course it’s a biased opinion, and not everybody likes too much depth, but yeah I thrive on it… also not sure how much replayability D4 will have at end-game, but I will reserve judgement until I play full game on release. If it is just rifts, and greater rifts similar to D3, then however I think it will be lacking.

Lastly I know that way more people will play Diablo because it’s a long running, and already establish IP with a huge following, and I also acknowledge that without Diablo, PoE probably would not exist, but still… in my opinion, POE > D4.

I have played and i think D4 is one of best Diablo clones, but this type of genre guess will die just like strategy as there was no changes in this genre like for ever. Locations have same story as Dragon age 2 with copy paste map parts. Missions are just shoot them all and no actual difference. Classes are super unbalanced starting weak and slow druid and ending with cheating power maniac necromancer. If you want just go and kill all the time then its fine game, but there diablo 3 and tons of other diablo like games, what the point of same game in different colors.

People crying about a dungeon, crawler being just that, a dungeon crawler 😂 the game is dope af!

If you don’t like the game, don’t fucking buy it. It’s a simple as that. People are gonna cry, no matter what.

The only real downside for me, this game should look and feel more like D2. This is how it is advertised. But it still plays and looks way more D3. Yes its darker and the mood is better, but yet d4 still feels less grounded and misses that really dark feel. Its all in the small details. Other than that. I like the gameplays. And as a casual gamer with a second child around the corner this is definitely a game that i will play 1 hour a day.

It looked amazing but I never got to play the beta because I’m an offline gamer so why isn’t anyone talking about that since diablo 3 and the original 2 were playable offline

The game feels, plays and looks like a Korean F2P Diablo clone. But the asking price is 70-90 euro.

For me who absolutely love Grim Dawn I could never become a hardcore player just because the system for skills and gear is just way too complicated for me. Diablo 4 at least in the beta having the ability to just swap abilities instantly for essentially free gives me a chance to actually try different things and get deep into the skill tree. That alone was huge for me I want to be a hardcore ARPG player but the games just are usually too much for me Diablo 4 as of right now is looking to be my favorite ARPG and will be the first time I can become a genuine hardcore player im very excited

The game is cleary very good, the coping is hard

Interesting hardcore meta review of a beta test (your title is misleading). While it’s understandable to value the opinions of hardcore players, it’s important to consider a diverse range of perspectives when reviewing a -game- beta test. Additionally, it’s essential to keep in mind the context and expectations of the game when evaluating its features and mechanics; “Diablo IV! Hardcore Only?”

diablo 4 is the best game i ever played

The level scaling should also affect out attack power, you level up but the power level doesnt move an inch, we should also get skill points we can place each level for out str,dex,int,will. Legendary drops are not often so we for lots of time are “stuck” on the power level until something better drops or we have luck with the obos lottery.

I am at a point where the info available makes it likely I’ll wait a year after it comes out so I can make a really solid choice on the game. I love the look of it and the story seems to be better than any recent Blizz IP. But mechanically from the demo it feels like a poorly designed game. I want to be able to spend 1k+ hrs in it but as is I’d play the story once a never play again, and any game like that cant be priced over $30.00 for me.

Nice click bait bro

“it was a mess. A pernicious mixture of server issues and deeper design flaws angered a fan community that had already been anxious about this new chapter in the beloved series, which had been more than a decade in the making.”
-GameSpot on D3’s launch. Sound familiar?

Path of exile global chat woud like to disagree, many people keep saying it will be the poe killer.

I never stopped hating wow. I like Diablo 4 but it’s going to have some major issues. You literally attack faster if you spam the attack

Once they tried to force me to pre order just to check out the beta. I was out. Im not buying anymore games unless its a finished product. Why do these devs not understand this concept yet??. People are tired of getting ripped off on unfinished half assed projects.

People are criticizing from a place of love. Everyone wants this to succeed, and not just commercially.

just my opinion, d4 is not getting past POE. it might at first on its name alone, but it will fall off cause d4 is just gonna be the same dumpster fire that d3 ended up being, people will like and play it but probably walk away from it sooner rather then later because of how lacking blizzard has been with their games over the last couple of decades. been playing diablo since d1 hug fan, just dont have a lot of faith in blizzard to actually make a good diablo game anymore. it will be more of the same just with a new coat of paint, like i said just my opinion.

Why would you want to be stronger than the monsters at same level even without better items? that leaves no sense of accomplishment when you find a new item for your build…which is actually what the game is about….LOOT!

I’m excited for Diablo 4 but with that being said diablo 4 is also my first ever diablo game

They should have made this game exactly like diablo 2 cause that was the best diablo… I don’t understand why anyone would want anything different. If you do I consider you foolish

I played I enjoyed, I might buy

Loved playing the beta version for the last 2 weekends,can’t wait until it’s released

diablo 4 is actual trash but we all wish it to be good, we play it like a shitty arcade game — we skip all the quests and try to minmax the grind and bosses. Its an arcade game its not an rpg like baldurs gate 2

Asmongold is hot garbage. Why anyone watches him is baffling to me.

I loved it. Wtf is everyone’s problem?

I really felt this vid… and agree with the assessment. I am not a hardcore arpg player and I couldn’t play Path of Exile .. ended up just deleting it in fact. So… I am definitely of the masses that Blizzard is attempting to reach… give me Diablo 4!!!!!

gamers are the worst consumer right next to truck guys

What’s wrong with you? If they dumb the game down from Diablo 3, the game will only be for 5 year olds.

Completely agree. Most of the reviews are people complaining about things most players don’t care about. Plus it’s a level 25/one zone BETA. People complaining about the gameplay loop in a freaking beta. Whatever. D4 is looking great and can’t wait till June.

Great video, thanks for covering this. People crapped all over Diablo 3 also, but I thought it was a pretty fun game, and I have been a fan of the Diablo series since Diablo 1 first released. Blizzard is a money making corporation, not a group of gaming saviors. They are going to make way more money off of the general masses than a small group of hardcore gamers who live in ARPG land. Also it was way easier to impress people and bring fresh ideas with Diablo 1 and 2 when there were very few games like it.

Reply ability??? I don’t think so😊

I heavily disagree, As someone who has heavy prescription glasses and generally has bad eyesight; Font size and type Can make a huge difference, especially in a game where you have Read a bunch of stats🥸

sweet video Force.

The graphics seem pretty awesome but I feel like they dumbed it down. This is why I play my ps5 once a year. The general public is filled with nothing but morons. I beat the original Zelda as a kid and I feel an adult in their 20’s couldn’t beat it because their brain power is at a zero

I know it’s a detail, but most PoE player I know play on stand alone client, not steam. Figure you show is, I imagine, way higher.
On the topic, I was disapointed during the first beta WE, then surprisingly pleased to come back for the 2nd. I wish D4 all the best, i’d love to have a 2nd ARPG to nourish my chronophage tendancy.

it was fun, there are lots of good improvements, but the whole game feels dumb. When I think about it, it feel like a dumb, shallow game.

Nailed it.

This is just a good time for ARPGs and, let’s fucking enjoy

I want and need offline mode i play diablo to slay demons and make a badass character not to play with other people to possible hack my game idk servers sounds fucked

The overworld scaling was a great move. I played with about 15 casual friends over the weekend and all of them loved the fact that we could all play together with everyone being all over the level range. Its likely to be the reason they end up getting the game as in other games they always feel like they are so far behind that’s its not fun to play together

Nobody hates it… It was great. Can’t wait for release

So I’m totally with you on almost all of your points. The deal breaker for me though is build variety that is fun. I leveled up 2 characters to lvl 25 the first weekend, and I felt bored after that, left wondering if I could refund this and curious about when POE 2 comes out lol. I hope it does end up some where in the middle for complexity, but so far I am worried…

I really liked this content. I too agree with many of the critiques as a player of almost every ARPG ever, but one in particular puzzles me: the problem people have with the game scaling up and getting harder as you level. It is clear that the mobs in the game ramp up faster than the player if you just randomly slap on any piece of gear that has a bigger +. However, me and many of my friends playing thought the game was way too easy to begin with (yes in world tier 2). Most of us who still play D3, start playing several tiers above the starting tier to ramp up the challenge and level quicker. The whole point of Diablo is to keep conquering the game as it becomes harder and harder. What if they decided to do that through level as well as world tier in this iteration of the game. Why is that bad?

For myself, I never felt like I was losing power as I leveled up either weekend (except for the barbarian but my build sucked at the start). So, my concerns remained in the camp of will the game be challenging enough to be super fun before we get to the first real new world tier. Either way, 25 levels implies we have seen 25% of what these characters can do, but level 25 (if the game works like most others) is really more like 10% at most. So, like the man says, lets see what the game can really do 🙂

My only real complaint is that I can’t move with wasd

The always online aspect of this game kills it for me and not having the monk class bothers me as well but I know that could come later. Being confined to always online and pretty much at the mercy of servers to ruin a night’s play time or the weekend just cuz of a server… It is absolutely ridiculous. This whole inclusive playing with people bothers the shit out of me.

It’s like they tried to take some of the skills from D2 and add it to D3

9:33 You DID NOT just compare StarCraft 2 with C&C games in this context, did you???? StarCraft 2 is waaaaay more complex and anti casual than CnC.

Its lazy and doesnt seem like they put any effort into it. 4/10 is being generous. I would have gave it a 2. Copy and paste layouts. Combat is slow and boring. Ui/inventory/customization/gear all low to mid tier. The list goes on. I love d2 and i know they will never make a diablo as good. D3 sucked but i can still play it occasionally. D4 is just ourright horrible. A huge step backwards. Feels more like diablo is turning into an rpg version of gauntlet. On top of that its gonna be filled with mobile mechanics like micro transactions a battle pass and all that cheap cash grab stuff. If blizzard cared they would stop trying to cater to casual gamers that will only play for a month b4 they move on to the next big release and actually try to make a good diablo game that fans will play for years

The optimization was & is pathetic

Just felt tedious to play, at least as a Barb… stuff just takes too long to die, fury based skills seemed to be delayed because of the always online nature of the game and the level scaling sucks all the fun out of the game. 

I also have issues with the graphics, your character and enemies are so similarly coloured and shaded as the environment, I found it really hard in big battles to see what was going on and where my character was.

Yeah, I’m not worried. I don’t like D4, but plenty of people will. Blizzard games are great for new gamers. They make solid titles for a genre. Nothing fancy.

This is what I Feared: A dumbed down version of what we want it to be. From what I’m seeing, Blizzard does not make games, they make profit.

I feel like if this game came out instead of immortals I would play it. But its too late. Many hype games coming (SF6) so D4 will sit on the bench.

Don’t get me wrong it is D3 2.0 in a good way. It’s very fun, although a bit easy. But yeah, I’ll see you guys when d4 is 20 bucks

I played the open beta. It was fun, but not worth the price. diablo 2 is still the most fun of the series.

25+ years playing the Diablo series – this was a trainwreck and for THE “next gen” ARPG from a $60B AAA? I REALLY wanted to love it & be impressed, nope, not at all. TY for all you do guys!

All they did was take Lost Ark and put a Diablo twist on it. Its not ground breaking. In fact its rather boring.

With only 6 action buttons, the game cannot be rated higher than a 4/10. That said, i did enjoy the beta, specifically the rogue. What I don’t know is how much of that enjoyment was just the ‘honeymoon period’. I know that it did piss me off when i had useful stuff on my action bars but then i unlocked my ultimate and i had no room for it. That’s just poor design and it WILL be a major limitation.

Why have so many options but still be limited? Seems artificial. It’s just the d3 talents rearranged into a tree shape but the d3 limitation still exists.

You said the same thing 5 different times.

Ragebait

Wait… unnamed survival game? How did I not know this?

i liked the beta it did a good job in min to min game play my issue were like small things druid not having any of its core stuff the map needs better color for ppl with bad sight , i do think they should just use adventure mode d3 rift systems as a randomizer for dungeon , and the server hick ups on ps5 making me rubber band or not let me in a new area because of the servers is annoying last please make gear drop around my lvl instead of it being lvl 13 while im at 25

Actually most people like it, nice misleading retard Youtube title btw

Not everyone. I couldnt get enough. And i personally loved it

feel like this video is a whole bunch of cope based on one time a blizzard game “looked bad” before launch and it turned out to be good.

I was on the fence about D4 before playing the open beta, but after playing it I will definitely be buying it. I didn’t think the MMO parts were terrible, and it was kind of fun running into people randomly in the world. My big complaint was that I felt I was getting weaker as I leveled up. I had a barb that I got to level 16 before the end of the beta, and it was a hard push for me to get there. I may have had a terrible build, I’m by no means a pro at ARPG’s, but I was disappointed by that, especially since strong melee characters tend to be my go-to in any RPG.

Yeah not sure about the bad review title is the way to go… heard alot of positive reviews not even 1 negative just about lag issues thats about it….. so why make a false video and say your gonna play the game 🤔

I enjoyed it but my biggest complaint, has not really been mentioned by anyone that I have seen is the lack of action slots. In DIII we had all 10 now we get only 4 which makes it really hard to take advantage of all the cool skills or combo builds.

Honestly, i couldn’t care less about D4, i _loved_ D1&2, and enjoyed D3 as well despite all the negative coverage. I’m sure i’ll enjoy D4 too if i ever get it. But Diablo isn’t why i’m making this comment.

This statement right here ( 13:00 ), that’s why i’m taking the time to make this comment.

I simply _can not overstate_ how incredibly refreshing and utterly overjoying it is to finally hear a game critic acknowledge this. The fact that the overwhelming majority of game critics, if not straight- up _ALL_ of them, tend to get hyper fixated on little details and then make mountains out of molehills. That’s not even to mention the way a *very large* portion of game critics these days seem to think their opinions are _gospel_ in the most literal way possible. (Cough cough, LegendKillaHD, cough cough)

I just really wanted to take the time to point out and really _pour on_ the praise for what i think is by far the single most important thing said in this video. You deserve huuuuuge credit for being one the very few people in your chosen “sphere of youtube” who is at least self-aware, because that is a trait that is becoming increasingly more and more dangerously rare these days among the “Gaming” segment of YouTube.

The game is awesome and people are loving it. Why lie?

I really appreciate how the plot has been shaping up so far. The complexity in the conflict between Inarius and Lilith’s forces is a highlight for me. Both sides seem to be using humanity while claiming to be their only means of salvation. There are many well-meaning characters involved with the church faction but you also see a number of violent, extremist practices being carried out by the institution. But their actions make sense when you see how dire things are just around the Fractured Peaks area alone.

Let’s paint a false narrative like the fake media. I swear it’s like people want things to fail that bring us enjoyment.

Blizzard knows most gamers grow up and has to maintain jobs and family, but they have become masters of quick great gameplay boosts. Yes it caters more to us casuals, but then again I will never have the 1000 of hours to sink into games, gear farming etc. maybe ever again. Give it 10 years and I will hear my kids complain about how some people can just buy stuff (which I used to do), but now that I have the cash I like that option 🙂 I am looking forward to revisiting a franchise now as a retired hardcore nerd.

I’ve been following a few channels, including this one, for Diablo IV content, and have been enjoying seeing the wide range of nuanced comments on the game. I noticed I tended to align a bit more with some views rather than others, but as time went on it became more and more clear that most of those divergences are matters of opinion and personal preference. And all that changed quite a bit having played the betas and and got to know firsthand how the game is shaping up for real.

I’m surprised that more people haven’t brought up the on-boarding experience and UI/UX. For example, how the game explains (or doesn’t) it’s mechanics. Simply how to do things.

Aside: How many Necromancers broke their minds wondering why they couldn’t attack (or how weapons impact their attacks) without looking it up?

Bad misleading title………….. thumbs down lol

Seems like it’s really cold in your house

Game is boring, ugly, simple, items and skill sucks, the characters are copy paste of the most vanila stereotypes.. Boring, simple and zero innovation. I refunded.

I think the consensus is that blizzard polishes things until theyre shiny. you might have to shell out 60 bucks every few years for what many would consider just a DLC but the idea of rehashing systems to make it perfect is what makes blizzard, blizzard. Overwatch 2 is not a good example however… everyone makes mistakes lol

I thought the beta was amazing. I’m really excited to spend some time with it this year.

I wonder if the haters maybe want the same game they already have, time and time and time again… 50 years down the line we’ll be playing the exact same games. Sounds like a bleek future to me!

Gamers are seriously the most insufferable consumers out of any entertainment medium imo. People are NEVER happy with what they get and that attitude has only gotten worse the more the internet grew.

The game is still not out yet… so you don’t know what the final product will actually be. I actually played the closed end game beta and both weekends of the open beta and I believe the game is amazing.

It’s pretty amazing how everyone loves to destroy a game without actually giving it a try first… (the best example is days gone.. everyone dissed it to the point they didn’t make a sequel and once it went free on ps plus and people actually played it they loved it).

All games have certain issues and eventually they get fixed.

Honestly, Never had evere played a arpg that I enjoyed more than Diablo 4 and I felt that it was less clunky and felt nicer than Diablo 3. Dungeons felt fine since you only went to them once or twice. I feel like its a great game and the gear progression with aspects and gems felt nice and concise. The only worry I have is that for late game/ Replayablity that it will be fun or just boring.

It’s literally Lost Ark – Lite. Without all the fluffing bullshit that came with P2W. It’s the SAME game it has always been.

Diablo 4 is fun as phuk.

I never saw a negative review

Good stuff.

rly nice video. yes i agree on the dungeon repetativness. “if that is a word” :P. it should be something they still can do something about., i do love it tho. i had a car at lvl 60 ich. and ye its a different game then 25. i also see that lvling and feeling less powerfull aint right but that will change as you get gear. i love it and will be playing it. i love that no matter what lvl you or they are you can play with your friends. i worry a bit about the seasons. how much will they change the game. lets see, ill be there when i launches.

Fun, but the game isn’t “amazing”. Its kinda the same ol diablo. Honestly I think the visuals are a bit weak also. Its not revolutionary, its evolutionary. We all wanted it to elevate the Diablo experience but Blizz is playing it way too safe. Also everyone keeps pointing out how the Druid isn’t what it should be which isn’t so good considering a lot of people want to play Druid.

Conflict of interest: this guy is literally making a D4 channel, hence Diablo 4 is very fun. Fuck your opinion, man.

1 specific thing: Remove the INCREASED HEALTH modifier. It’s AWFUL. All it does is turn trash swarms into damage sponges. No fun at all.

That power scaling turned me off to ESO. I had a level 45 and would do higher numbers on my level 8.

I call it Diablo Ark. I doubt that’s what the fans of the older games wanted.

I liked the moment to moment and the presentation but the side content was a slog.

Diablo 4 is awesome, content creators are nuts.

Dennis boi, you’ve grown much over the years and your content shows it. Thanks for your efforts. Here’s to the new channel!

I enjoyed it I leveled everything up to 20+ with my sorceress capping at 25. It was great. And I will be playing.

Watched it on the bald guy’s channel. Just here to say great video and I agree completely. 🙂

Is this for stupid clickbait title, came here for the hate critics video?

Problem is, most of the in-depth reviews come from such a miniscule part of the playerbase (stereamers) that it, basically, means nothing. Why would people even care what one dude who speedruns D2 24/7 have to say? Or guys who made a name in PoE playing “hardcore” with logout macros? Those guys literally get payed to play games, contrary to the vast majority who play for fun. So, they play games differently. Most of those videos dumping on D4 are basically bitching how they can’t do the stuff they are used to in smaller games who cater to them (and sometimes drastically change game mechanics) for a bit of free publicity. D4 is fun and enjoyable, period. It will sell incredibly well, it will be played for god knows how many years, that’s it.

I have played all Diablo games and expansions since the start but I’m going to skip getting this at launch.. I’ll probably pick it up sometime later when it costs 10-15$ but it just doesn’t seem to be adding anything really new and I’m a bit played out on that formula. I think younger players (and they are the vast majority) will still play it, so I think it will do fine.. but without me.

Diablo 2 is 23 years old and Blizzard is still scratching their asses in confusion as to why it was “good.” D4 is boring as fuck. I’ve tried to give it the gain of salt it is due, but it is clears a day the game is overly handicapped by console design first pc second. I’m sorry, ARPGS are constantly constrained by scope and controls. While D3 was “bad” for this reason, it was more manageable than D4. D4 is so damn slow feeling I’ve actually wanted to take a nap instead of continuing to play. It looks great. It sounds great. The “tone” is more in the D2 vein to some degree but not really. However, the actual gameplay is a fucking snore fest. I know some of that might be due to the level 25 cap, but D3 didn’t seem to have the problem.

It will sell very well because the number of players who have no desire to be “left behind” or “left out” will gobble it up. However, I’d honestly rather play D2R or D3 more than shell out the cost for this which isn’t adding much of anything in experience. It is everything bad from WOW lately and everything bad about D3. Kudos to Blizzard for fucking up for 18 years straight!

Don’t forget the guys that have opinions on games like D4 but then never play games like D4.

I hope we don’t see legendary items at lvl 15 in the real game… feels like a mobile game when I saw it drop.

i ENJOY3ED IT.

I really apricate how deep you go into topics and your breakdowns are clear. Always looking forward to your content, Keep living your life man!!

Fantastic review. To me the platform is fantastic. Itemization and skills are impossible to determine at 25. Dungeons are easy to fix. I dislike the scaling and suspect it will go away. Technically it’s a moot point at endgame so will only impact the small groups of playthrough fans. What I see is an amazing opportunity…who knows how it develops over the next 10 years. D3 is nothing like it’s launch version. Neither is D2. I loved both and will love this I suspect.

Say kripp right

Love the meta-analysis. Great insight, critique, self-awareness, and reflection. I’ve always thought this about hardcore Diablo/ARPG players – that their perspective and what they want from a game is possibly significantly different than the thousands or millions of casual gamers that will play the game. And I have hoped that game developers don’t listen too much to these hardcore players and end up creating a game just for them. It looks like D4 hasn’t fallen into that trap, but we will see.

I am super excited to hear about your own D4 beta experience!

Not everyone hates Diablo 4, they need to speak for themselves lol.

My complaints are very minor. Class balance being the most notable. One other thing is only having 5 buttons for skills because I’d love to have like 1 or 2 more. Lag and stuff related to poopy beta servers get a pass because, well, it’s beta. Commenting the game lacks any depth when we played to level 25 in the first zone is a bit “what?”. Hard to compare low level experience to like t16 POE mapping for example. We don’t know much of anything outside of rumors and possible leaks about end game. So yeah judging the game for “lack of complexity” is not really valid in a preview beta.

4/10 is a way better score than I would have given it.

The amount of nonsense in this vidéo…
You contradict yourself many times, the wow part isn’t true, it was the opposite, the “as in lvl 25” part is because devs said they’ll use beta feedback to balance classes at that level, which was a terrible statement on their part… No one expects balance at lvl 25, but to that degree ?
Does the majority of players care about those glaring issues ?
The answer is yes, otherwise you have no clue what type of game you’re playing… That’s just an insult to Diablo players.

its a really good game in many ways others it really sucks ballz the world scaling is gross the dungeons are so bland some of the classes are straight up broken for example permeant invulnerable necromancer and then there is the community wanting the barb buffed and thinking necro is amazing lol however levering up a rogue or barb felt great to me a nice difficulty curve and once you learn and start your own build it opens up a lot and you start feeling like a champion the world boss is absolute trash i have watched so many people dying tho as i just moved slightly out the way of his attacks and got hit once or twice in the whole fight lol its insanity !

Your comparison of WoWs launch is a bit weird. Firstly it feels like excuse making, second they are fundamentally different scenarios, times and games. Diablo is being compared to it’s previous iterations if itself, WoW was compared to other games from other Franchises. Your blizz cheque is in the post.

Diablo is for Mobile gamers who just want lolz epik Lootz games.

I hope, D4 devs see this video. Because you analyse absolutely right. Thank you. <3

For PoE you also have to mention the stand-alone and chinese client.
You got to at least double or triple the number of players on steam.

At lvl 25 you can not say what the game really is!!! Until about lvl 50ish it’s more like training!!! Every ARPG in the world is like this. I think we will have to wait and see what the full game is in the end. End game is always where Diablo has shined.

cant wait for release, next 2 months is gonna suck

You can’t rate a game if it hasn’t launched yet, its still beta and a lot of things will change. Its stupid to rate the game now and choose to hate it in its current state.

Only thing id like to see with the dungeons is more of a reason to target specific ones. Like the appearance if items dropping having a specific theme? Or some unique items only obtainable from that boss. Id like the bosses to feel more like bosses aswell. More challenging (not just more hp/dmg/enrage timers.. but more complicated mechanics for the actual fights and more rewarding when killed)… early day d3 actually had cool mechanics fighting the butcher etc safety dancing/dodging the hook etc.
If you take elden ring boss fights and cross it with d4 play style and have hundreds of bosses id love that lol

But PoE had more than peak 150k players since it’s not only on stream, and big portion of players play on PoE launcher, and there are also consoles. It is a similar situation with many other titles.
Try being more genuine next time Blizzdrone and stop spreading misinformation.

“It’s been 2 years, idiot”

I just wish they didn’t restrict the skill tree the way they did.

I don’t like being forced to put points in a basic ability, then a core ability and so on to get to better abilities. D3 had a much more modilar system where any ability could be slotted anywhere. It’s like they want to force builds rather than letting them develop naturally.

Heya, Love the videos keep up the great work :D. Hey I tried your link for the ridge wallet but I don’t think it’s working in Canada? Is this up 40% off deal only in the US?

Your diablo 4 channel is going to blow up, looking forward to it

The way the game is currently designed melee builds are terrible. Your going to have to level using spells the switching to melee later. For example werewolf or werebear are a chore to play when you compare it necro and sorcerer.

Can we stop calling them Blizzard? They are Activision now and have been since 2012.

oh dear after 10 mins you finally conclude your argument and it”s bogus sorry . Blizz wasn’t a dumbwasher gaming company no starcraft wasn”t a dumbed down c&c starcraft was one the finest rts and the start of esports (on a professional huge scale in southkorea), wow had raiding and great pve but garbage roleplay or pve whereas uo still does better in roleplay or even 1v1 or daoc in guildpvp. overwatch is probably even more competitive than tf2. hearthstone and magic hm magic has been around for ages ofc it has more mechanics by now hearthstone has it’s own complexity but for me magic still has the appeal of real playing instead of online . yes true hots was a dumbed down game but this was in a new era way later where also d3 was a dumbed down d2 and i still hoped d4 could be more interesting when they drawback on streamlined builds by not allowing pullback mechanics ,bring statsgain back, not forced builds by equipment and too little differences in skills. Also personally i can’t see how should i enjoy d4 openworld content as a hardcore player when something suddenly is overleveld and just onshots me or a stupid bossmechanic of a openworldboss with a huge blast just kills me randomly when i pass on my horse if things like that can happen i don’t believe i will enjoy d4 . Also d3 was actually only fun at the beginning before it was patched to become too easy hm remembers me of wow which argueably only was decent after the 1st addon. anyway since d3 blizz isn’t a official quality seal anymore and with major f ups like warcraft reforged and even destroying the still working community of before. Trying to cash out with wow classic and somehow making it worse than free servers. Immortals was a huge middlefinger towards the gamers. Other than that activision/microsoft chaos and scandals about their worker and female treatment extra. All together made me not too excited for d4 and very critical towards blizz and way more sceptical towards influencers. But i”ll at least definetly enjoy wacthing all the d4 rendered sequences.

Dosblo was always always a chill game for me where I could grind at my own pace and enjoy killing demon spawn. Now that it’s like Lost Ark all of that goes away. I see bot problems in the near future. Good luck doing events.

I agree its pretty bad. That is what beta is for, to get feedback make adjustments and corrections. The level scaling and the MMO aspects SUCK! ALSO many of the tile sets are a DIRECT copy from d3 with a new skin on it!

As a player who enjoys using the bow, the game felt very underwhelming to me. The skill tree is probably the biggest turn off imo. If that is the finished product, I’m sorry but the game sucks.

I don’t like how complex PoE is but I’ll be damned if I’m spending 70 bucks on a game that’s a dumbed down reskin of D3. There were literally like 4 bow skills and then an ultimate that’s on a 1min cool down timer….on top of that the gear had a lot of trash affixes that are essentially just fluff to give you the illusion of complexity.

Last e-pok 🙂

Diablo4 will be known as the biggest embrassment to arpg releases since Diablo 3.
D4 will be day1 6million people waiting at error screens. Day 7 will be 200k concurrent. Week 3 will be 5k concurrent. And month 9 will be the last announcement that will ever exist. It will just say we are working to fix the problems and have plans to add an endgame. 10 years later. Diablo 5 announcement!!! Internet goes wild!!!!!

even if i get paid to play it, i wouldnt – its a mix between diablo immortal and lost ark

d4 is amazing 9/10

Wow all these comments about blah blah blah … shut up your never going to be able to log in anyways

Having a girl follow me while looking for her mother completely bored me by level 20. The campaign was GRUELING.

KrippAriAn

Diablo 4 looks cool but what bothers me is that no matter where I go or what i do, I’m borderline bored. EVERYTHING scales to your level so it’s not too difficult but if im trying to reach a goal (to fight a new zone, or kill a boss I can’t kill) Im happy with something to fight towards. BUT THERES NO GOALPOST in this game! You can run past every creature in the game and only go for story and beat the game at level 20 (honestly) it’s BORING! Path of exile at least forced you to work towards figuring out why you die so fast (resistances) and how to fix them. Im not saying I WANT a complex game like POE (although I’d love that) I’m just saying I want to play something more than pretty cutscenes and actually put CARE and thought into my character and build. But i guess it wouldn’t matter if everything scales to your level anyway

Thank you Force. Looking forward to more Diablo 4 content I have subscribed to your new channel. And I am looking forward to your content in general. Thank you for your insight into Diablo 4 🙂

I’ve played last two weekends, and me personally really like the overall atmosphere and grimness of the thing.

Biggest problems I have mostly concern immersive breakers…..animations that that look weird of stupid, using the same kind of NPC look multiple times as different character…..that kind of thing.

For more technical things, like skill trees and itemization and what not, I’m to stupid……so I like the feedback of those more seasoned players, if the aim is to elevate the game….not kick it in the ground.

D4 beta was overall a good experience yea we had lag issues etc but the game from a d1-3 player I enjoyed it. I’m not a huge fan of the way they did no belts but I understand why doing that works for the console versions etc. The level scaling is alright but I would like to see some more areas for levels vs I get to 20 and all enemies are now 20 but it did make it at least tha ti could farm any area for gear which is both good and bad. Personally all of these games have medium replay ability at best once you max out you build to your play style what’s the point? It isn’t like we have jobs like wow we will have to see what the season passes offer but even then if it’s all cosmetic then eventually it will not be a game worth playing until something is added like a new class etc..
