Diablo IV

D2R can look like old 2D graphics because modern graphics allow you to depict detailed things unlike old 3D graphics which are so lacking in detail that they make everything look like blobs or vomit

PoE is hot garbage, and ppl that play it should feel bad

are there any leaks on some unique items ? I saw their designs and i am interested if those are in game or they went with something else.

Innocent animals like deer should be invincible.

The beta so far plays a lot like a mix between Diablo 1 and Grim Dawn. Everything is really stripped down and minimal, both in regards to the special effects as well as character-monster appearence, no yuge-ass explosions or enormous swords wielded by bosses that are 3 stories high and have strobe lights all around them. Combat feels a lot more "heavy" and non-arcadey, too, compared to Diablo 3.

Allegedly.

 

[Dadd]

It seems like they're only showing low-level characters or basic skills. Movement and animations remind me of D3. Though it would be great if the game were more like D1.

Funny how they talk about maturity and still are so scared to show some tits. In a fucking game about demons.

 

[Daedalos]

If you play ARPGs to care and look at/for nudity, you probably should rethink your life.

Gameplay was one of the only good things about Diablo 3, actually, so they are right on the money here.

Artstyle, story and systems were shit, but the gameplay feel was on point in D3.

Succubus then:

Succubus now:

 

[rusty_shackleford]

stop objectifying her with your male gaze, incels

 

[Sykar]

Fine I will just turn my male gaze... on YOU!

 

[Dadd]

I'll male glaze wherever I want

I honestly prefer the new look.

The previous one just looked kinda lame.
The new one looks demonic, at least. The boobs? Well... it's modern day Blizzard, so

It has arms attached behind its ears, with wings on the elbows of those arms. What? A succubus is supposed to be the embodiment of lust. A sin, a perversion of love, but alluring. This concept is like grimdark Dr. Suess. Also, what's with the hyper index finger? Everything about the concept is dumb.

That's only one interpretation of succubi.
And usually the one used to pretend you're not just thirsty.

I prefer the succubus variant that is actually a rather horrid demon and uses magic to trap her victims and fool them into thinking she's a beauty.

If you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.

[Daedalos]

imagine making a cool gothic ARPG, and instead of wanting to slay the foul demons, the sexless incel codex players just want to fuck the monsters instead.

Every day we stray further from God.

Okay but then she would appear to the player as a beauty.

Let's not kid ourselves, the aesthetic choice here is not an accident. Literally every female character in Diablo 4 is "manned up".

I think the more horror-based aspect, especially around the face & horns could work as a contrast with a stereotypically attractive body. But the fact the face ends up being the prettiest part while it's supposed to be "scary" and the rest of the body is some horrifying steroidal accident is hilarious. It's not like you can't have horror and sexy at the same time. I mean holy fuck people sexualize cthulhu-style monstrosities. But it's blatantly obvious Blizzard does not want you finding any female "sexy" in the traditional sense.

Fair enough, but then they should model the respective shape change. From alluring beauty to horrible demon, e.g., when approaching or attacking the succubus.

It's like the D1 succubus is out of work, can't afford decent lingerie anymore.
