How do you on the very last boss add a new game machinic ?
No where in the game do you instant die from falling…
Level 50 bard / very well equipped. Was doing really well I thought.
Then on the last fight, the floor falls out from under me.
Why did I pick hardcore… I thought we would be able to continue on softcore after we die.
After 34~ hours playing, I do not want to play D4 ever again after getting killed by this method.
why not teach people early game that you can die from falling…
Everywhere in the game the game prevents you from falling…
Why would I think the game end would be any differnt.
really upset.
Don’t want to play again.
- fix death by falling
- fix hardcore → software convert on death.
you spend the hole game being safe and tweaking your stuff…
then you just get killed from something you CANT prevent or even know it was a possible way to die…
what a bad game mechanic… really guys, DONT play hardcore.
no game should make you sick… this just did. wasted 30hours…
upset…
It got me too, pretty brutal way to go. start again and get back on it
Welcome to hardcore! To be fair, honorable way to go out. It’s worse to spend that amount of time and die because your game crashed because a youtube ad played on the browser on your other monitor that freaked out your graphics card.
Keep at it and try again - or play on softcore, learn the story/mechanics, and be better prepared for chaos. Hardcore is not for everyone, but is quite the challenge.

Oh my god, sorry to hear this!
I managed to beat her at lvl 50 and I was wondering this EXACT thing - Like, if I didn’t dodge the floor falling out - WOULD I DIE?! I thought, surely not - there’s no way!
But F, I am so glad I didn’t find out!
RIP my friend!
I believe you can come back stronger, thats the joy of Diablo!
Thanks for testing this for me 
RIP.
I was going in blind as well and I barely dodged the falling floor. Proud of myself that figured it out in time. My palms were sweaty AF on that fight tho.
Sometimes you have to experience something to learn it. Hardcore isnt supposed to be easy. It seems that is what you are looking for.
This is the part where those streamers got to learn a mechanic that gave them an advantage and why they shouldn’t be able to compete in the HC race, nowhere was this mechanic ever mentioned that I’ve seen anyway. Cancel race till official season launch would be even better.

Aren’t they excluded from the contest?
Anyway Its a good idea to research before doing new bosses
my second monitor killed me, i dont know what is up with that game but the moment I multitask the game freezes for multiple seconds.
It has been taught! It’s called physics! Did you not go to school?
The floor was rumbling for ages before collapsing, can’t really blame the game
When you play a new game where you go into the unknown with one life, you should expect the unexpected.
If a video game can literally make you feel sick in your body, it seems in the long run it’d be detrimental to your health to continue playing hardcore.
People get heart attacks from not being able to handle stress properly. If you like the game, just play an eternal character; why not?
I had this problem in that fight where I could not cast or attack, so I had to take a death. Again, the reason not to play HC. Several times I have had to quit the game and restart it because the input would quit functioning. The last mob does damage the floor and you fall to your death.
Yeah, but been old and slow, i didn’t really understood what was going on before it was too late. Just thought it was a normal spell that would do some damage. Not an instant kill.
Is this during the campaign? Where are you fighting her at level 50
yes it is. It is the second round of the fight.

Some people playing super safe, so they do these events very late in game.
Thing is scaling just makes it tougher and tougher, people don’t really understand that yet.
if your actually playing through the game and doing stuff other than same dungeon on repeat to level, steer clear of cellar/dungeon with pressure plate puzzle, step on the wrong one a nasty explosion keeps going off which is pretty much instant death.
Just turn around don’t even try, not worth risk of something wrong happening and instant death. I learned the hard way, so frustrating once you get into that “nothing can stop me feeling”
