>Diablo IV released 2023>Diablo V announced 2026Oh no no no no no. This is basically Blizzard admitting that 4 was a flaming pile of dogshit that flopped disastrously. And with the massive amount of resources that modern-day gamedev demands, 5 is HIGHLY unlikely to be meaningfully different. At this point just call it Madden NFL: Hell version.
>>747601804A SEQUEL RELEASING 6 YEARS AFTER A PREVIOUS TITLE???OH NO NO NO BLIZZBROS HAHAHAHAHAH
Did these idiots spamming these threads not realise that it's not coming until 2029?
>>747601804the main problem in american studios is all the stories and writing is dogshit - vapid people can't make good art and CGI cut scenes can't carry an entire game
>>747601883>>747602196Shut the fuck up, bitch. Diablo 4 is already on the backburner if they're announcing Diablo 5.
I just don't want it to be another seasonal thing where we just grind some activities one after another. I wish they did away with seasons and brought back exploring big maps as the main activity, like D2 leveling but the entire game is that and not just Baal runs.
>>747602386Yeah that's certainly a conclusion you would draw if you had extremely low IQ.
>>747602386He's been seething all weekend. It's funny
>>747602472execs/shareholders want games to continue making them money after the initial sales. making games live service and having seasons and battlepasses along with cosmetics mtx is a requirement to make them happy or they won’t let them make the game.
>>747601804Holy shit imagine getting more than one game in a decade, like the olden days of the 90s and the 00s
>>747602928I understand that but I don't think these things cancel each other out. My specific issue with seasons is that I have to start a new character every time. Implement seasons in a way that doesn't force me to do that and then it's fine by me.
>>747601804>level scaling slop in a diablo-like4 was irredeemable trash
>>747602928Actually, they could keep D4 going as it is and make D5 a more traditional experience without all the extra live-service shit. D3 still is pretty active, so I don't expect people to just stop playing D4 for D5. It could make everyone happy
>>747602386I think it has more to do with confidence in blizzard being at an all time low, so they decided to announce as many heavy hitters as they could this blizzcon
Abandonware
>>747601804>le random steeples and gothic architecture everywhereI know it's just concept art but the composition of this scene is so obviously ai generated.
>>747603650>not recognising anor londo
>>747601804Diablo 4 was so underwhelming I almost forgot it happened
>>747603436desperation move made by retarded cucks
the legendary aspects killed d4 for me. shit’s dumb as fuck.
I completely skipped D4 because modern Blizz is woke. I stopped caring about anything they make after the ma'mazon reveal in D2 Resurrected.
d4 was the first diablo game I never bought. I think alot of good well has left blizzard by this point. And D5 is looking about as promising as a wet blanket. Until Blizzard learns the formula again, good loot, good drops, kill endlessly, endless different affixes and skills and stats, there will never be another good Diablo game.
>>747603561>takes TWO expansions to get Meth>can't even be bothered to bring Baal and Diablo into the gameThis is a DISASTER for Blizzard.
>>747607359The plan was to do expansions for all of them, but D4 floppa'd so they had to bail on the entire thing
