Is this getting more content/expansions after Lord of Hatred or will this really be a diablo game with no diablo in it at all?

>>738686086It's been incredible successful with LoH and one of the best selling IPs Blizzard has. There will be more expansions for sure.
the name 'diablo' is from like 30 years ago. there's a lot more to the lore than just that one prime evil. LoH finishes up the mephisto arc. would it make you feel better if it was titled 'prime evils'? retard
pretty sure i read somewhere that Blizzard execs are viewing this game in the same way they view WoW. it's not going anywhere.
I need a lore nerd, which prime evil is the older brother and who is their daddy and what does he do?
>>738686086We'll know in September at Blizzcon if it's gonna have another expansion or if they're just going straight to Diablo 5.
>>738688443Mephisto is the oldest. Baal comes next and Diablo is the oldest and weakest prime.The evils all come from the severed heads of Tathamet, the great evil dragon that formed from the purged and discarded evil of Anu, the creator of everything.
>>738688248it's funny because they play more similarly than ever, and will probably continue to become even more so after WoW experiments like Plunderlord, trying to make smaller and simpler class kits, rumours they eventually want it to be a controller/console viable game, etc. though diablo 4 has more interesting itemization. WoW is only like 1-2 steps away from FF14-tier itemization, all that really remains is trinkets and maybe things like a weapon proc. i doubt a single normal player gives a single shit about secondary stats and BiS, they might know what Wowhead told them is the BiS trinket thats it.
I actually like the MMORPG aspect.Neither Diablo 2 nor Diablo 3 made you go out into the world.In Diablo 2 you did endless andariel/mephi/pindleskin bot runs, in Diablo 3 you spent your life in rifts.And in D3 you also never grouped up with others unless it was for split bounty runs or greater rift pushing. Diablo 2 runs were also just mephi farm 2 minute runs. It's nice that you can actually casually run into other people.
Didn't Diablo become "THE" Prime Evil in Diablo 3? How'd Mephisto return? They could have split him up again with 7 new evils if they wanted.
>>738688726Play Diablo 3 and you will find out
Is anyone doing Dark Citadel, the forced group content?I tried soloing it and after easily clearing out the first floor there was a door with 2 switches that you are not allowed to pass if you're playing solo. I got kinda disgusted of it and never bothered looking for a group.
>>738688726Malthael, the Aspect of Autism, fucked everything up for everything and accidentally released all the evils that you spent the entire campaign of Diablo 3 emprisoning.
>>738686086Hard to tell because Blizzard doesn't test their seasons so they usually launched in a bricked state which results in cash shop sales which will eventually put the game into maintenance mode.>blizzard game & expansion launches are tested and launch for the most part without problems>blizzard game patches and seasons launch with PTR testing only and launch RIDDLED with bugs to the state of unplayableI dunno how the game is still alive even now, the expansions literally give as much content as a season if not less and cost 40$ to 100$>vessel of Hatred increased the map size by 25% with no new content>it added mercs which was a lie and instead uninteractable walking shitty buffs>it did a stat squish that bricked 90% of all uniques that stayed bricked until Lord of Hatred--------->Lord of Hatred>increased the map size by 25% with zero new content>it added a item re-roll system>it added a table that forces you to do the five already existing activities in a certain order for a few extra item dropsthats it, thats all the content these two expansions added for 40$ to 100$ and inb4 BUT THE CLASSES! classes are content you dumb nigger
>>738688697In D4 you barely move into the actual world after you have done the campaign. You can teleport straight to like 80% of the activities now. The only stuff that still takes place in the actual world would be Helltides and world bosses, and Legion Events if you for some weird reason want to do them.
>>738688946They will just do more shit like the horadric cube or whatever the fuck the thing is that gimps you if you don't have the latest xpac
>>738688950There are also the open world quest whispers. But I guess not a lot of people do them since you can just get whispers passively with almost every other content.
I am STILL angry that they butchered monk and then replaced it with the SpiritbornTalk about a fucking identity crisis What are some fun classes? How do Paladin and Necro feel to play?
>>738689057Yeah with the war plans now it doesn't really make sense to go actively seek whispers since they just happen when you're doing war plans shit.
>>738686086They already said that all the prime evil are going to be featured by orderMephisto was sent to the Shadow Realm now so Baal is probably next in line
>>738689107Auradin is the ultimate Chad build. You walk into a room and everyone dies at the sight of your jawline
>>738689107Pally is fun. I enjoy my Arbiter wings build. Turn into a pseudo angel, everything around you dies.
No one cares about Diablo 4, POE2's new season coming at the end of May basically shit all over anything blizzard has put out
more like diablo bore
>>738689368>POE2Have they fixed the monk to be an unarmed capable class yet? If not, I don't care
>>738689368Yeah the endgame overhaul looked kinda insane tbdesu
>>738689107>lord of hatred necro preview>you can have up to 30 plus pets>expansion launches>day count gets cut in half>we had to cuz performance issues>meanwhile barbs can summon hundreds of ancients and warlocks fill the whole fucking screen in aoe blasts>nononono please understand it was the 15 extra skeletons causing the issuefucking troon nigger faggots
>>738689413https://youtu.be/vxgYGGFNs98?si=trYw-G93ZRs1apODKinda?
>>738689413Unfathomably based.
>>738689413End of the month
>>738689570>Martial arts ascendancy>Still uses a fucking quarterstaff in the show offI will take that as a no then
>>738689570Why does path of exile 2 look so good visually while Diablo 4 looks dated? Why hasn't blizzard did a texture overhaul.
>>738689540>>738689186Sounds like paladin then. Shame, the entire point of the necro fantasy is to have an undead horde
>>738689107just picked up d4 again, having fun with jag spiritborn. ripping and tearing
>>738689717Paladin is fun but good lord do I hate the voice acting for it.
>>738689368too bad poe sucks ass to playNo i will not play your jew shit trading simulator
>>738689570>genesis treeWtf is that, that looks autistic
>>738689570This doesn't look like my monk martial arts fantasy wtf
>>738689778It's poe2 admitting that poe1 is the better game so it's about time they become poe1
>>738689672>>738689770>>738689778>>738689828https://youtu.be/jsp5NFH5714?si=oVeWF-Pk0jFec0RyYou don't want to use grenade launchers and become Captain America?
>>738689875No.
>>738689875That's kinda cool, but why no swords.
>>738688851No it’s terrible, only reason to do it is for the cosmetics. You’ll find groups with the lfg sometimes but be aware half of your group will not understand any mechanics at all and be worse than a bot so you will be 2 manning at best. I did it a fair bit and a solid third of the runs was me soloing everything and spending several minutes at each “stand on 2 plates” spot desperately trying to get one person to stand and STAY ON THE SPOT UNTIL I RUN TO THE OTHER HOLY SHIT HOW HARD IS IT
>>738689875Those will be very expensive guaranteed
>>738689875No dev, you stupid fucksI want to play the monk and BEAT THE FUCK OUT OF DUDESI want to BE the weaponAlso where the FUCK are the swords you incompetent fucks? Why are kiwi devs acting like vile swedish devs?
>>738690219>>738689931Wait for 1.0 at this years exilecon
>>738689107Pally and necro are both fun (for D4). Just be aware any “pally is super strong/op” talk is from last season when it had a dozen ridiculously strong passives, it got hit hardest by the new skill tree design. Still good and fun but I think it hurts pally players egos that the most brain dead unga ww barb build shits all over them now.
