Idk i am losing hope, i wanted modern D2, i never played original i was D1 kid and D3 older kid, when D2R Came out i remembered what diablo should be, i still like 3, but was never into the rift grind, felt like a waste of time.
I played all classes, some sets and had fun with seasonal gimmicks and mechanics, things like a fully equipped follower all happened to little to late for me.
So D4 feels nothing like server slam anymore, and D2 fans are going back and poe fans going back, so what does that leave blizzard.
Serving the D3 player base, I honestly expect whims dale secret levels, sets and colored treasure goblins by the end of year, probably even a rift and n/m will become redundant trash.
Or it stays a medicore mess not knowing what to do with isteself, or they fix the trash loot, make it a real arpg, and not candy crush 4.
D3 is fun, it is not diablo. You are not that powerful in diablo, my druid in D4 is a powertrip god compared to D2R.
its fun sure. Its also not.
They really could have been more honest about it, so i knew to wait, already have D3, was looking for something new.
Which it was, now it is half what it was, and like D3 feels like nothing really matters, things just happen, things just die, upgrading and unique solve the problems. nothing make me feel like the lone wander you are suppose to be.
Before you come at me about arpg can evolve crap. Let me stop you. Look how many people are playing DND rules in BG3. A Ip does not need to forget itself to be fun and have people play.
It just needs to be good, and do what it should as a IP not a cash in on the brand.
Example would be them not being honest and serving BG3 as a arpg, like they did on ps2 without saying this is what its become. more or less.
That said i enjoy D4 for the good parts and hope it finds itself in time as a real successor to D2.
Would be kind of nice dont you think, since that’s the name of the game. Diablo.
All 3D open world real time animations and combat spells and textures and lighting is amazing. nailed all of that, boards are great ST pretty good.
I can go on about the good.
Just needs the fundamentals bought back in. Mob desintiy change is fine idc. just dont whine about CC and it being hard, after you asked for more of it LOL.
Thats what i am mad about kind of. this game is as crazy as its impact on my head, trying to work out what is good and bad. One day its fun, next it feels bad, idk, the LOOT is the bigger issue for me. and use OF Weapons.
Why cant i pick up a staff and use it as a warrior, with lightning charges, or make the not so dumb warrior that can learn a few spells or harness power of magical items.
Where is this part of the game. Its a arpg not a arcade game.
