Don’t get me wrong, I like D4 so far. The open world, dungeons, side areas, etc… What I am personally not enjoying is all the questing. I just want to login and play a sort of sandbox mode where the game world is opened up and I do what I want, not what the game tells me.
The thought of making new characters, all I can think about is repeating the same quests 100,000 times. Factor in hardcore mode, it gets even worse. Playing softcore mode won’t fully mitigate my issue.
I think D4 would benefit from a more open version / game mode. Maybe have it unlocked after you beat the campaign on one character.
The game doesn’t feel open world when I’m bombarded with quests that feel required. Feels like I am just traveling to quests rather than exploring where I feel like I want to go. If I want to literally do dungeon runs until the level cap, that should be possible but it seems quests unlock parts of the game. It’s fine the first few times but I know I will grow tired of the same quests over and over. Just want to kill, loot, and level up.
