Just look at the images and gameplay we’ve seen, and especially the character selection screen. It all screams D2. Leading up to Blizzcon 2018 it was heavily rumored that D2 Remaster was in the works, and after that con it was almost obvious that D4 was not yet in any form of serious production. The Immortal debacle then forced Blizzard to need something to show for D4 at Blizzcon 2019…thus they simply took their D2R project and retitled it to D4 and here we are.
I am stoked to be getting D4 but nothing they showed looked like it had any new or groundbreaking features to brag about, it is literally D2 Remastered but now with a new story. Is anyone else worried about this? Even more hilarious is that in 2018 Diablo Immortal headlined the show and in 2019 there hasn’t been even a whisper about it. Blizz has zero creative vision currently and in a panic to deliver something…anything…because they literally have nothing right now.
