Return Diablo 4 into development phase

You can judge it however you want, but it is a flat out lie to say the game was not finish.

We got a complete game, and the changes being made is something you might or might not agree with, but that does not matter at the statement of. “The game is not finish.”

That is false no matter how you feel about it. Your feelings does not make that a true statement.

I dont know why you’re arguing with me.
I actually agreed with you. Scroll back up and re-read our posts.

While I disagree with the op I’m not sure a game like this is ever finished. Is it?

I will however show sympathies with the op. It’s as if it was shipped/released without life points working, or damage working, or defenses working, or resistances wor… Are not resistances a core basic part of any Diablo and or all characters, and monsters? Does “playable” define finished?

Ye im not sure what happened lol.

You can state it however you want.
Facts, lies, logic?
In the end they are all personal opinions.

It is painfully obvious it was rushed. You just have to analyze the whole game from start to present. Look at all the fixes, current broken core mechanics and future planned updates. Because this is an issue it’s actually preventing the simpler things that normally follow which they wanted by season like leaderboards. But that got delayed because of issues. Why so many issues? It was rushed.

Every game is rushed by that standards, so I guess no game is finished. Even Elden Rings.

Nah game is fine. If you’re unhappy play something else until it’s better. Not like there are a shortage of fantastic games this year. Amusing that people are this up in arms about d4. You literally could not complete end game in D3 at launch.

Is it too much to ask to have your Resistances working as intended on release. I mean this is an ARPG, that is a core mechanic of the entire game. Enemies, skills survivability is tied to that mechanic. And can we have the skills at least function together as intended. Bugs happen but for skills and passives just out right not work… Having a complete foundation on “Full Release” shouldn’t be asking for the impossible.

This game is in nowhere near as bad a state as FF14 1.0 was.

Remaking so much of the game in a 2-year period has left FF14 developers struggling to find ways to implement changes they want to make on top of the spaghetti code foundation they have left over from 1.0.

Even after taking 2 years off to work on the game, there were still numerous game-breaking bugs in 2.0, even if the overall experience was significantly improved.

Edit: Oh, and over 10 years after the release of 2.0, we still don’t have all the features we were promised during those two years of development anyway, because sometimes developers change their minds.

Seriously, I have no idea why you picked this as an example.

I am sorry are we in game right now? I haven’t logged on since I tested the patch and found my Season 1 theory build to still somewhat work and could be viable in Season 1. But once I started reading the developers notes: it had me questioning if they actually tested any of that out because I can assure you the horse was not meant to be nerfed lol. I’ve camp here in the forums while I keep attempting a no move challenge in Halls of Torment.

Edit: only until 1.1.1 if it’s not better then I’ll move on fully.

Oh but I sure did make some money on that live auction house (the true end game). I had no issues since their was a huge incentive elsewhere.

Yup, It sure did, It blows my mind that people on here can say its a complete game just after the DEV themselves have to do a Massive Stat Revamp, Not even going to talk about Resistances that DONT WORK. Server Lag, Mounts that get stuck on everything. DPS Bugs.
Finished game, Yeah okay.

Sounds like a Live Beta to me. Crazy how you people are okay with that tho, Give Blizzard the all clear to release unfinished crap because they got you guys here to defend them instead of playing the game you love so much xD

Jesus people.

You literally could not complete end game in D3 at launch.

I was one of the few only barbs soloing Inferno Act 3+4 In D3, I enjoyed the 6.2k I made from the AH, Please bring it back.

Bobby likes his new yacht collection so no refunds.

GG. On point.

It’s unbelievable that game was released minus the core - competitive leaderboard paired with endgame activity, la D3 GRs, Time ladders, for you to compare against self and others.
First admittance during campfire, readying, for S3 … Diablo IP needs new Project Manager to sync deadlines between different departments of D4!!

sure it will. you take it down so people dont play this trash version and get attached to it, demanding more of what theyve been playing. you want to break their spirit of enjoying this itteration by taking it away from them and replacing it with what the anti nerfers want!

You can’t close Pandora’s box after taking everyone’s money and releasing the game. May as well let people play it while they try to and improve it.

I’m mixed on it. On the one hand, I would be pleased as my expectations of the gameplay experience would lower knowing it’s a work in progress. On the other hand, one year isn’t going to fix these systems in place. It needs a rework from the ground up in areas.

The MMO/Live Service mechanics need to go. It has only gave me a negative gameplay experience.

I’m thinking that if I did refund I wouldn’t be back until the story DLC came out.

I said this in another thread.

Undercooked food at a restaurant is like underdeveloped games.

No, it’s not.

Underdeveloped games won’t kill you if you play them.
