It will be fun for few weeks like Diablo 3, but won’t have a staying power like Diablo 2 imo.

Diablo 4 was made by the community. They actually listened to the community. We'll see if they make the world more alive. What I don't like is that even if you play solo you would still run into others during the game.

Blame the community on Diablo 4.

DeepOcean's Diablo IV experience Nostradamus preview:
1 - Shut down brain and auto win through everything until end game, effort is optional, it will just make you auto win faster.
2 - You wont even have a decent storyfag experience, because Inarius has a male voice and Lilith is a female demon and the writers are hopeless simps, so, you already know who is right and who will win by the end dont you? Want to watch girl boss know better story number 7958?
3 - Get to end game, now you have the priviledge of replaying through the same shit you played before but with bloated stats.
4 - Your character looks like some miserable peasant, so, you can pay enough money that can buy 10 games to rectify that or waste the equivalent of 100 games in time but instead of having fun playing 100 games, you will waste all that precious time on the most mind numbing and soul crushing meaningless and repetitive activities so your character can look somewhat cool and stop looking like a miserable peasant with constipation.
5 - Eventually Blizzard will start releasing MMO features that at worst are just excuses to scam you out of your money or at best, window dressing designed to make you waste even more time to pretend they are actually investing the microtransaction money on the game instead of buying Bobby's third Yacht.
6 - Hate yourself but come here on the codex claiming it is a great game so other shmucks will share the same existential pain as you of playing what is the equivalent of Sisyphus torture in the form of a game.
7 - Finally realize Blizzard is incapable of making good games and play Path of Exile 2 instead

Nah mane, if they listened to the community they would remake Diablo 2 forvever exactly as it was hold up, they did that already. Diablo 4 is the next big step of making money off Diablo grinding made by polish troons. Diablo 2 sucked ass cuz the gameplay was about rolling those drop casino games for rare lootz. If a real gamer wanted that shit just hook them up to that shit that either gives you crack or an electric shock like with the rats. Shit game for addicts that are afraid to smoke the real deal.

First game was damn fine tho. No grinding shit, just getting your ass more and more chafed the lower down you got into the megadungeon. Classic.
Is the first game better than smoking crack after some electroshock therapy though? Asking for a friend.
It is. Not speaking from personal experience tho... a... friend after electroshock therapy made the comparison, you see.

How surprisingly specific and convenient! Ho ho!

But ... is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Right? Funny, those coincidences...

Listening to focus groups is bad dev advice - look at what happened to D3 - game run by wannabee World of Warcraft developers.

devs should make the games they want to make, not the games the community wants them to make.
if the dev's decisions and the "community's" don't align, then the community should find a developer that does make games the way they want them instead of having some weird misplaced loyalty to $BRAND

Sounds about what I was expecting after the fiascos of the Blizzshite titles of the past decade.

Well that was forgettable. Watched it an hour ago, and all I remember is that an immaculated groomed negro was having bad dreams & teleported to a snowy place.
