neyrelle[/spoilers] dies in the opening cinematic
this is how i knew the story was going to be based

>unpopular opinion
i think the warcraft stuff in diablo is absolute dogshit, i was initially hyped but after consideration i hate it, and i fucking love t2 wow, especially paladins and especially judgement armor

but seeing all of it just dropped into the diablo universe feels like such a cash grab nostalgia bait move, the price point and the timing of it especially is also just blizzard really trying to cash in on the influx of players due to expansion

warcraft is warcraft and diablo is diablo
why the fuck are we bringing sulfuras, thunderfury, ashbringer, illidan wings into diablo

assuming we get another 2-3 expansions exploring baal arc, what region do you think we're heading to next expansion and who will be the main characters? it can't just be us and tyrael

i couldn't help but notice how many female arch angel statues there were scattered around Skovos, are we going to finally have some story introduction into Auriel?
>>
>>738289770
I don’t like neyrelle dying as the catalyst for LoH. Not spoiling because opening cutscene.

It smells of “the fans are complaining so let’s just off her”, but also she has no real use in the loh story either. It makes all the events of VoH almost pointless.

There’s a good number of narrative issues we’ll have to go over and dissect over the weeks. Should be fun.

i'm kind of okay with blizzard killing her off because fans don't like her though, salvage the game where you can, if they kept her around we could have been in store for another VoH, and that was such a dogshit campaign

if VoH only gives us us mephisto in akarats body, i'm okay with that, i didn't like how much of a pussy akarat looked in game though compared to cinematic, literal neyrelle face

What are you guys doing with warlock that feels actually good to play? Im doing the claws and it feels pretty decent up to torment 5 or so and will probably go further with a few more decent items but is there anything else? Tried demons and while I enjoyed summoning giant sword wielding demons it felt clunky and surprisingly weak. Wanted to give apoc a try but I am under the impression it needs some solid gear to actually work.

Any other options?
>>
>>738291090
the plot was saving sanctuary while reconnecting with Lillith and tying her back to humanity properly while also finally tipping the scales back in our favor by doing something to one of the prime evils that's never been done before

otherwise it's a gritty story full of loss and tragedy
it's not that deep it's just written well for what it is

Outside of hammer and wing strikes, what does paladin do well?

By that merit, I think Neyrelle was someone’s self insert and the writers wanted to stick it up that original writer.

Maybe, but the fact that even Reddit hated her was reason for them to kill her off. I am sure they would have done it in VoH if they weren't already deep into production on it when the vanilla game released.

I had more fun with the server slam. Did any of you guys play the pre release game? It was capped at like level 20, and came with dungeons and a world boss ashava. It was almost like exactly the same actually as end game d4 ended up being. But it just weirdly felt better for some reason lol, I dunno. Im smoking crack probably. It was like the most perfectly balanced game totally by accident.

Also slightly disappointed with how few cg cinematics there were, just the opening one if i'm not mistaken? Far too much reliance on in game cinematics
Nothing even close to rival the Lilith v Inarius cinematic

They are massively hinting at the other 2 prime evils coming. The order this time is reversed - Baal first, then Diablo finally.

>>
>>738296918
She loves humanity but saw it as weak so she went hard Darwinian on it. Also, although she loves humanity, she also sees it as a tool to end the eternal conflict and make herself the queen of everything.
>>
>>738296918
>why was lilith bad in the first place i cant even remember anymore
She wanted to save humanity by stripping away their morality, allowing them to give into their darkest impulses. She believed she was freeing them to cull the weak. As >>738296996 said, Darwinian.
She didn't want to end the world like the greater evils, but "save" if by stripping away what she viewed as weakness from humanity.
>>
>>738296996
There's more to it, because she genuinely believes that her path is the only one that will allow humans to survive at all.
>>
>>738297258
humans will survive as long as a superhero legend rises every time something bad happens (they will)
>>
>>738297298
In D4's case, 10 million superheroes.
I hate that they made it a forced online shared world game but for some reason we are "the one".
They should have leaned into the many heroes thing.
>>
>>738297258
There's still 0 explanation for why the Nephalem rose to power in D3 and why they were so stupidly powerful that a Diablo fused with the other prime and lesser evils couldn't win against them.

If the Nephalem of old were that powerful why the fuck did Lillith need to do anything? D3 writing was atrociously bad lmao. Metzen was high as a kite back then.
>>
Not to trash D4 devs super hard, but what were they doing for two whole years between now and Vessel?

It’s a pretty tight campaign at 6-8 hours.
>>
>>738295804
1 frame too many.
>>
>>738297568
>why the Nephalem rose to power in D3
Because the worldstone was destroyed in D2
>why the fuck did Lillith need to do anything
because just the worldstone being gone doesn't mean humanity will all regain their power without input, she was trying to push them in that direction

Now don't ask any questions further than that because obviously it's pretty shaky ground
>>
>>738297618

>>738297747
Is the endgame actually good this time or is it good like every other endgame was good where it is actually shit after 3 days?
>>
>>738297965
Its dogshit.

They took all of the previous versions of end-game and just slapped them all together with 0 balancing or consideration. Now all you do is get given an artificial choice that leads you through 6 versions of end game content.

Whats hilarious is it doesn't even work in coop or with randoms even though adding a matchmaker would have made sense. So its now even more single player than D4 was before which was one of its very few selling points with world bosses and helltides.
>>
>>738297965
It's pretty good for a weekend or two of blasting

There's now multiple different end game activities and they vary in how they're benefiting your overall progression, the warplans is kind of nice and gives you a mindless direction to pur your energy into which builds progress and there are now activities skill trees that allow you to customise each activity, nothing hugely transformative but adds some depth

The horadrim cube is also a nice addition that opens up the options for some crafting, and they've essentially kept Sanctification from S11 and it's now called Transfiguration
Gambling it all on an item is always awesome

They've also cleaned up some bloat around the bosses, like those fucking summoning materials are now just replaced with Lair / Greater Lair key and the malignant heart etc are just a "throw 5 into cube for random unique from that boss loot table"
>>
>>738297425
It’s just much nicer to have the character voiced and actually doing things in the story. Diablo 4 is probably the best online game at doing this, your character is actually wel voiced, has some nuance and feels part of the story.

I’d rather have that than the “ludo narrative” thing of 100 mmo players running around.

Is it worth trying a Diablo game after all these years? The only APRG I've gotten more than ankle deep into is Grim Dawn and I cannot fucking believe that Fangs of Asterkarn still isn't released. I've fucked around with PoE a little bit but I have smallbrain, looking at the sphere grid gives me a headache and I didn't gel with the gems-are-skills system because it made it feel less like I was playing a class than I was a body that could just do whatever I wanted if I had the right gear.

Either play D2R or just D4 even
>>
>>738299601
The main reason I never tried Diablo is I had a lot of experience watching my friend play 2 as a kid and it just seemed by the end playing the game was the least important aspect of it, it was just running cycle on cycle on cycle looking for the right stuff to drop. When I played GD it was on a whim because I thought the multiclass aspect was interesting. I did a playthrough on whatever starting difficulty was available and was done after finishing the campaign and Ashes of Malmouth. When Forgotten Gods released I did a new full run but I just don't have that itch for the forevergame that all Diablo clones seem designed to scratch.
>>
>>738299807
Do you get joy out of just going through the motions of feeling yourself get stronger and turning the difficulty up and wrecking on packs of monsters?
If so, give D4 a go. But fuck endgame, just play until the diminishing returns set in and there doesn't feel like there's a nice dopamine hit anymore for getting a cool item or set or whatever and then call it quits for a few seasons and it'll feel fresh again with a couple new mechanics

In the new expansion Mephisto has now been banished to a place called the Void instead of being stuck in a soulstone or going back to hell to reform, so he can't come back, we will probably do something similar to Diablo and Baal and after D4 there will be some sort of hard reset + time skip.

Yeah, but given the state of (internet) connectivity in general I don't know if anybody will ever really lend themselves to developing something like that again.
I mean shit, every major phone (data) company will give you a massive data hotspot to use, on the off-chance you're ever playing portable. Not to mention everybody and their mother has free, high speed wireless access in their businesses because it comes packaged with their business internet.
So the idea of modeling a game like this to have offline capabilities is practically pointless.
Oh and the game pretty much sucks dong playing solo anyway. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed playing the main campaign(s) by myself well enough, gradually increasing the difficulty, and trying to take the story seriously. Emphasis on trying.
But I would never replay it. It's a multiplayer game. Plain and simple. Does it suck that it's a multiplayer game, designed not to really be played singleplayer? Yes and no. Plenty of great singleplayer games out there though, and for what it is this game as a multiplayer experience is better than similar games, e.g. WoW or FFXIV.
For everything else, there's Diablo II.

Lilith was banished to the Void and she came back. The story of Diablo games always revolve around the Prime Evils being smarter than humanity and getting their way somehow. Mephisto's entire arc seems to have been about finding the Pools of Creation that Inarius told him about and the ending has him fall into the waters before the boss fight. Even if he is banished to the Void, I think that means the Pools of Creation are now corrupted and who knows what that means but I guess we'll find out in the next expansion.

I started at 4, now I have nostalgia for 4 and I hate the other games. Except 1, 1’s the best.

I appreciate they didn't try to make amazon karen super sympathetic or anything. I feel at a different time they would have spent an hour of the expac justifying her as a tragic villain and then give her a noble death instead of dying to the MC after pissing your character off.

I think that it would be cool to see the reincarnation of Inarius, and find out how the new angel feels about Sanctuary. I would like to see another angel follow Tyrael's footsteps and support humanity in the fight against the hells.

How rigid are "builds?"
>>
>>738312443
Builds are based around preference and aligning your 6 slot skillset with the additions your legendary gear provides.

When you grab an item that says:
>you drop 6 more grenades when X
Now your skills can mold to fit into the additions you’re getting from gear.

Personally, I think Diablo 4 has the best builds I’ve seen in any game due to the linearity of the skill tree, the limitation of six skills plus the TCG rule like states of all the gear.

Warplan is gay because you need to play activities through it to level them up, and that means you are at the mercy of RNG as to what you get to play. Just allow me to play what the fuck I want to without it negatively affecting my experience.

Playing arpgs with a controller, especially diablo4, is the way to go.

It’s not ‘really’ an mmo, it’s more like a single player co-op game, like the old games.

I think he's a kind of tragic figure, rejected by the heavens and tortured by the hells. That's why I would like to see his reincarnation, to get some idea of his side of the story. He believed that killing Lilith would redeem him, that he was the one in Rathma's prophecy "bound in chains".
He viewed his creation as a permanent reminder of his failings, while Lilith viewed them as a permanent reminder of her rebellion against her father. Side note: I'm not convinced that she has Sanctuary's interests at heart. If she ruled Sanctuary, it would be a hell in its own right, as evidenced by her actions throughout the original campaign.
But anyway, I would like to see more of what Inarius's inner thoughts were before his expulsion from heaven and torture in hell.

I'm confused by the pricing structure. Is VoH free with the base game now? I see posts elsewhere saying that this is not the case but when I look at the Steam page I see it saying that it's "free" in the dlc list.

>>738324423
problem with 4 is it's a really dull game

you're basically paying for both dlcs now cause VoH was 20 bucks

i have had a weird bug for a long time where my cosmetics are completely fucked
if i try to change armor looks it always does the full set instead of individual pieces, and for single set things like weapons it just doesnt recognize clicking on anything unless i press space bar with a left click
weirdest shit ever and it goes away when played on my other computer
i dont have a controller plugged in that could be fucking with inputs or anything
>>
>>738316000
They never stepped in to do anything. It was always individual angels going against the council decisions that came down to sanctuary to help.

Angels in their entirety only ever have discussions and votes whether they should come and euthanize us. For all I care we should get an expansion where humanity goes to the high heavens and fucking slaughters them.
>>
>>738326223
I'm having the same exact problem. It started like 4 days ago and now it's completely fucked. Apparently a lot of other people are having the same issue
>>
>>738326715
>It was always individual angels going against the council decisions that came down to sanctuary to help.

True, but Tyrael specifically says that this is no longer going to be the case at the end of D3 and presumably the council agreed with him since they allowed him to return. So where is this unity between angels and men that Tyrael promised? Did the writers just forget about it?
>>
>>738327061
>Did the writers just forget about it?
Yes. They wanted to make everything grim and as dark and edgy as possible and the heavens working together with sanctuary just didn't fit that theme so they needed a convenient excuse.

Same with Tyrael forgetting basically everything he ever fought for.
