What you have phone?
Tablets only. Sorry.
#D4Bad => #D5Bad
D3, D4, and D:I have all been disappointing to me, for different reasons. I’m quite certain D5 won’t be for me either. I am no longer the target audience for Diablo.
Which is a shame, because I adore D1. And it’s not just nostalgia: I replayed it last year for the first time in decades, and had a blast. And D2, although I have my gripes with it, is my most played of the series by a long shot.
I think it’s over specialization. I loved that in D1 that any character could use anything. By D4 every dropped item was character specific which meant no finding cool items of a different class to build the next character around. Also just the finding items. It seemed like every item I found or listed at the shop was just another 1 to 3 points in the character I was playing primary attribute, another point or two specific to that character and a few random filler bonuses. Just boring. Maybe it got better in the later game but as far as I got in the open betas and free weekends convinced me not to buy it…
I completely forgot diablo: immortal even existed. I see it has generally poor reviews, which is not surprising.
Sadly, they don’t care about the reviews. It made money hand over fist and that’s the executive’s native language.
It is known that all Diablo games are bad until the expansion.
obligatory we have Path of Exile at home comment
It looks less and less inspired, like a clown before retirement
Five diablos! Damn.
and no warcraft 4 in the making.
1 and 2 were great. Three ok. Four sucked and was a game built on a marketplace. Five? No need to bother.
Didn’t IV just come out a couple years ago? Blizzard what is happening over there
Not enough mana.
A gift, for you.
This is for you.
This is yours.
This is for you.

TIME TO DIE

Not enough

Same joke but worse
This used to be pretty standard! If it weren’t for all of Blizzard’s other nonsense, I might applaud this.
Microsoft wants a return on their purchase…of ActiVivendiBethesdaBlizzarKing
the most recent expansion was a few months ago, so its just this year lol, and surprise it was kinda of disappointing. the big bad was supposed to be LILITH? but it ended up being mephisto, but even in the last expansion it dint seem that good, as far as story wise went. im guessing 5 will be BAAL again.
Diablo 4 will be six years old by the time this comes out (not including eventual delays), which seems like a decent time between major releases, and three years after the current expansion, which concluded the Mephisto story.
Getting diablo 5 before elder scrolls 6
Wouldn’t be surprised if we get Diablo 6 before Elder Scrolls 6 at this point.
and were getting SC" FPS too soon in a few years. and no WC4, if they are even considering it. WC3, SC1-2 and diablo 2, are probably the best games.
Last expansion was this year (I had to look it up). Didn’t even remember it coming out.
it was "the big bad mephisto finally manifesting as enemy.
For real. Diablo was the last blizzard IP I cared about and I’m so thoroughly unhyped about this announcement. The game is 3 years old!
I never even played 4. I didn’t ever hear enough good about it to try.
Don’t care. III was so bad that I didn’t even consider looking at IV.
Shiren 6 exists, why would I play that?
What?
I want more information. Are we returning to a dungeon crawler with actual difficulty or are we following the D3 and onward beatem up cakewalk system?
I never played D4 but I remember its announcement trailer, it was super cool. This is boring :(
They forgot to add Diablo to Diablo IV though. :)
shouldve called it Mephisto&lilith .
Well, the tag line for D5 is “the lord of terror has returned” so hes back now
Yeah, I mean they could’ve make it an expansion pack so Diablo IV would become an actual Diablo game.
As a single player user I liked Diablo 4, good story with excellent cinematic and well made all around. So I’m quite excited to the new chapter
I like Diablo and unlike the old heads who don’t actually play the game, I think 3 was peak.
Sure, it wasn’t super difficult dark fantasy dungeon crawling like D2 but shit was fun, well designed and had good variety. It’s a good power fantasy of you being overpowered and killing hundreds of mobs and still getting nice power spikes in the form of rare items that actually make a difference unlike in 4.
3 wasn’t awful, I got plenty of enjoyment out of it. Loved 2 and 2r, 4 was meh at best imo. Haven’t watched the trailer for 5 yet but will soon, am excited!
The reasons you give are exactly why I don’t like the modern Diablo games. Except that to me, D1 was peak and even D2 was a step in the wrong direction. I don’t begrudge you your fun with D3, I only lament that it’s not for me anymore. And it’s clear that a lot of people agree with you, evidenced by the sales numbers.
Fair enough. I guess whichever game came out when you were 12-16 is going to be peak for you, so D3 for me, D1 for others and for some even D4.
3 was okayish after they removed the real money ingame shop, which they felt necessary as they wanted the share of the traded items that previously were sold on ebay at the time. D2 is the best of the series, as it’s still a PC game at heart and not targeting controllers and not mini wow like d4 is. I think a Diablo 2 with a good story and ideas from the mod project Diablo would increase long term playability and get me the most.
I am betting they’ll add movement sets from soulslike games and make it controller first gameplay. Just like path of exile 2. That alone will kill the game for me.
Too soon, Microsoft.
