Why aren't you playing Diablo 4 right now, /v/?

The new expansion fixed EVERYTHING.

so there's offline mode now?

Not drunk enough yet.

But I'm enjoying the new expansion pack. It's not as good as Diablo 2 but it's closer, and doesn't require out of game trade coordination. Runs pretty well on my 'eck as well.
>>
It didn't fix the fact that it's always online or that it's a fucking DIABLO game that stars Diablo's asshole older brother instead of Diablo.
>>
It's a $20 game
Lilith sucked

Finished the season journey already, mephisto t12 etc. Was relatively entertaining, definitely better than any iteration of the game previously. Now I'm waiting for the poe2 launch next Friday

This game has the most disgusting cash shop i have ever seen. It is so egregiously consumer repellent the very thought of playing it fills me with such incredible disgust, dread and rage for it all at the same time.

Modern Blizzard products are a fucking joke.
>>
>>739397890
bought the humble bundle pack and just tried it today, finished act 1
I have to say it feels bland, like there's nothing that's pulling me to keep playing and I dislikethe open world stuff because it isn't clear if you should explore or if you over level campaign missions making this a bad choice.
I different issues with PoE2, because while it does feel like there's impact and weight in your abilities, the maps are so stupidly big you feel like you are wasting your time.

I would say that what makes it good is that it makes it easier to learn the systems with different tutorials, something PoE does jack shit about and leaves it to youtubers, but then again, why does an arpg need to have so many systems? Craft gems, craft armors, like 8 different tiers of difficulty, etc...

I wouldn't say it's a bad game though, I would 100% play it compared to PoE simply because the campaign at least is understandable, cutscenes are welcome and the way to progress your character is somewhat simple, but then again, it's not a good game, just a meh one, however maybe I'm not the public for games like these

>t. I completed PoE 2 on early access and did a full playthrough of Diablo 2 on all 3 difficulties

Looks like I bought the expansion back when I was on a 3 month manic binge slamming vodka and adderall. I wanted to play the Paladin and didn't even install the game yet.

My wallet hurts from that time. Take your meds, kids.

just wasted $20 on diablo 3 and begging blizzard to give me my money back. genuinely such a boring game i have no idea how anyone in the history of mankind can tolerate that game. diablo 4 is actually good compared to 3.

You will never have the experience I had playing Diablo 2 in 2001.

And neither will I. Diablo 4 can't provide it.

I finished the campaign and immediately got bored of endgame. I just dojnot enjoy the loot treadmill slop that modern ARPGs like Diablo and POE have. It's so incredibly boring. I'd much prefer the campaign just being extremely slowly and annoyingly grindy like some old school RPG uncslop.
>>
>>739407148
Yeah I don't really get the ARPG endgame either.

Actually, I don't understand any endgame aside from MMO raids. Diablo 4 probably has MMO raids somewhere, but I can't find them without a wiki.

>>
>>739407235
I think part of it is the seasonal reset model that the entire ARPG genre adopted. I find it bizarre and kills most of my motivation to invest time in a character.
>>
>>739407357
FFXIV ruined that aspect of RPGs. The fact that you can make a character that can switch to every role.
I get it, in Diablo you've got gender specific classes and some classes have fat people and whatever, but it doesn't make sense narratively. I've got this character attachment from a 40 hour campaign just let they switch classes within the current progression of out.
>>
>>739397890
because i already have played it
once i have all my mythics and im doing like 120 pits, there is no reason to play i don't want to level another class and i don't

I had fun but that's Diablo in a nutshell, just aren't enough builds of interest to make me want to keep playing
>>
Even IF I was interested in buying this game I have to pay for like 3 expansions and the base game. I'm not paying over 100 bucks to play this
>>
>>739403112
Because in 5 months they barely made any changes, there's still only like 2-3 skills allowed to be good, balance changes are minimal with most skills being totally useless, game still doesn't have basic stuff like daggers, swords or axes.

Just started on ladder? There's really no amazing early runewords beside the usual stealth/ancients pledge, if you're feeling spicy you might get leaf but you can easily get a +2/3 holy fire scepter without giving up your shield slot anyway, so there's little point to it

I have been playing it and I honestly find it to be a lot of fun. But once I finish the DLC, I'm not sure I'll be back. I honestly kind of liked the chinese lesbian, and her death felt cheap . The writing isn't bad but it's clearly a bit marvelsloppified, constantly changing their minds of what will happen in the story. Also, the build variety is a lot better than before, and the loot is good, but why play this when Blizzard is going to jew me around every corner, when POE is free, and Grim Dawn gets new DLC this year?

>>739414564
Yeah I didn’t get the hate for Neyrrelle either. I think the genre is full of dudebros that want to be the center.

Narratively it doesn’t even make sense. She’s the main catalyst for the whole series and they drop her off , in the opening cutscene as well without spoilers so you know that the devs are winking at you saying, “See? We killed her off. We’re listening”
>>
I decided to try out Diablo 2 for the first time instead, it's alright but I think I just don't have that degenerate arpg gene in me despite thoroughly enjoying Grim Dawn. It could just be the age of the game, though. I'm just barely into act 5 playing a summoner necro. I really liked playing cabalist in GD but without any way to really direct my summons in D2 it's pretty boring, and having them constantly getting chokepointed by geometry doesn't help either. Act bosses have also been a big problem since they just die too quickly, which means most of the time I have to cheese by fleeing with town portal and resummoning skeletons and rehiring my merc.
>>
>>739414969
I did think it was odd that we let Neyrelle make such a huge choice with the soulstone, and I liked how they addressed that in VoH. She really wasn't written like some woke girlboss character, she suffered immensely for her foolish choices. I think they did a pretty good job of making you want to save her from the nightmare she was living. I would be fine with them putting her in some sort of mephisto torture box until the end of the DLC, because I wanted to bro out more with Lorath, but I don't want my writers dictating their writing based off of the whims of twitter addicts. Especially since this is my first time through the game, there is no way that the writers for VoH meant for her to die in the fucking commercial for LoH. Did the playerbase really hate her that much? Is it because her scream in the VoH trailer became a basedjak?

It costs 70 if you want all the expansions, and you need all the expansions. And then they jew you for buying the expansions early like they did for the people who bought the first Diablo 4 expansion.

"Renovated" skill tree still looked like a stick. If "what's the meta build?" has a correct answer, the game isn't worth playing.

>that it's a fucking DIABLO game that stars Diablo's asshole older brother instead of Diablo.
That would be fine, if it was a full narrative on its own. But it's a $70 DLC installment that you have to pay another $100 for to see the full narrative. And the RPG design is worse than D3.
