heh
The game is fundamentally lacking, but that was just a cherry on top.
If we make all the women with as masculine enough features as possible and not get called out as trannies by more than 41% of our player base, that means we win
I remember it really well because I hate it so much that I can't stop thinking about it.
The whole top-down looter ARPG genre gives me a massive hate-boner.
no. i havent played diablo since diablo 2.
havent played 3 and havent played 4.
there arent any really good arpgs on the market and you can only play so much of the old ones.
titan Quest 2 and path of exile 2 look promising but i reserve my judgement until theyre out and i can play them for myself.
this, I play Diablo 2 every few years and 1 once in a blue moon, no interest in 3 beyond the initial "it finally came out eh" and negative interest in 4 after all this time and their shitty world of warcraft, and shitty overwatch.
why the FRICK wouldn't one just play Path of Exile unironically
>why the FRICK wouldn't one just play Path of Exile unironically
comlpexity and deep systems is not something everyone wants anon.
sometimes just dumbly slaughtering enemies for hours on end is what people want.
i can guarantee you that most diablo 3 and 4 players dont understand the underlying mechanics of the game and dont care either way.
anon that is complexity for the average normie.
simply attempting to explain the difference between increased damage and more damage already goes above most peoples heads.

im glad Ganker moved on. now i dont have to worry about spoilers. wont be entering this thread because i know someone will write spoilers.
now waiting for Ganker to move from BG3 so i dont have to hide those threads because people want to write spoilers as the headers
I refuse to move on from Baludr's Gate because it's the best game in a fricking decade. I will sing praise from the rooftop and annoy you homosexuals like no other.

I've never seen a game cost so much money and be so very, very, very very bad at every possible thing. Even Cyberpunk was awful, but didn't cost this much time and money.
Played it, finished the campaign, completed a build on the class I was interested in, enjoyed a bit of time gear grinding and experiencing the power of the build, then shelved it. Was worth the discounted price I paid via a grey market for it. Season 1 wasn't worth sticking around for, doubt the others will be either.
Season 1 is the exact same content as eternal but with a couple new gear pieces and a new gem-like item to socket. Same dungeons, same enemies, same bosses, same map, same areas, same classes, same skills. It doesn't offer anything different really.
i was hyped for this game since release since I loved diablo 3 even if it is a braindead slaughtersim. Waited a week for reviews and all excitement died the moment I saw how egregious the cash shop was. who the frick pays $70 for a game with microtransactions? Who would PAY just to have all their in-game achievements undermined by any schlomo with a credit card?
Yea, they should call it something else, other than Diablo though, same with D3 and DI and D2R, nothing about this game or the last 3 installments is related to D1 and D2 as far as I'm concerned, all this dogshit is some troony devs fever dream, if Blizzard ever gets reshuffled and all the useless inhuman garbage crammed into the company finally gets flushed down the toilet, they can start right from where they left off when they were actually a good company, frick it, go back and fix the horrible mangling of the warcraft 3 story as well, but only after everyone at the company is fired imo
d2 is dogshit though. almost every class and build is worthless and requires thousands of hours of farming on a real class like corpse explosion necro or blizzard sorc to make viable
Yea I played you earlier with my bf
>hey, remember this goyslop that JUST came out
have a nice day, shill
The only Diablo game I've played is Immortal. Seems like just another mmo.
puh puh puh please play our game third worlders need to bot and feed their families
Or thirdies from Pakistan with butt slow connections wanting to be pulled through dungeons.
yes, I remember your futa wiener
I remember how wide you left my anus gape
Based
Remembered to skip it, yeah

A month of zomfg nuDiablooo then nerf and fricking dead
Next game...
I'm still on my first run, haven't even begun a seasonal character
literally who
There are more bad diablo games than good ones.
Sage.

it's not complex though, it's just Diablo 2 but the game accounts for you playing hundreds of hours so there's choices as you go forth

No matter how much you shill PoE, Rajesh, nobody wants to play it.

Season 1 is incredibly fun, especially with the wrathful heart drop rate.
>Season 1 is incredibly fun
What. Season 1 is barely different from pre-season, there are very few hearts that are actually gameplay-changing
But the ones that are make a huge difference. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ve3HRBTmczk
Season 1 is the exact same content as eternal but with a couple new gear pieces and a new gem-like item to socket. Same dungeons, same enemies, same bosses, same map, same areas, same classes, same skills. It doesn't offer anything different really.
I mean technically there are six mini dungeons and a new boss with multiple difficulties.
Not to mention the effects of Brutal/Vicious/Devious/Wrathful enemies scattered all throughout the world and dungeons.
Most obvious shill campaign on Ganker this year was Diablo 'look at my ESG score' IV

Blizzard is dead.
hate the game if you want, it has plenty of issues but saying you can pay for in-game advantages on the cash shop is just being disingenuous
Yeah, I remember you. You were the worst Diablo game of all time and didn't even keep player interest up to the start of season 1 lmao
Blizzard took a shit and Diablo 4 came out.
It’s just a combination of wow damage numbers and gearing and lineage 2 experience grinding. Quite genius if I do say so myself.
>those games invented those things
>not an argument
It's like how Halo pioneered multiplayer FPSes.
Grug play with rock growing up, not stick.
Stick no matter.
It's not done. They need to finish games before they come out.
Yea, they should call it something else, other than Diablo though, same with D3 and DI and D2R, nothing about this game or the last 3 installments is related to D1 and D2 as far as I'm concerned, all this dogshit is some troony devs fever dream, if Blizzard ever gets reshuffled and all the useless inhuman garbage crammed into the company finally gets flushed down the toilet, they can start right from where they left off when they were actually a good company, frick it, go back and fix the horrible mangling of the warcraft 3 story as well, but only after everyone at the company is fired imo
Not just fired, systematically exterminated.
Diablo 4 already turned a massive profit. Nice try, Shazamtrannies, but Blizzard wins again!
Meshif is probably over 100 years old in Diablo 4.
Not anymore!
Imagine living a century only to get done in by a rando stabbing you.
Off camera, even.
Should I play the Diablo 2 remake if I’ve never played the series before?
As someone who started diablo with D2, yes, yes you should my guy. It's fricking awesome.
You might want to have a nice day instead
D2 is vastly superior to D3 and D4, unless your a little graphics babby. D2 has way more interesting loot, god tier music.
>god tier music
>the part of the act 1 music with the few second guitar solo is good
>rest I can't remember
d2 is dogshit though. almost every class and build is worthless and requires thousands of hours of farming on a real class like corpse explosion necro or blizzard sorc to make viable
t. gay who couldn't get to hell without handholding
try a mod
path of diablo ladder reset soon*
literally every build is viable, yes EVERY build
>diablo good is only good if you change it
How do we fix this fricking game?
What's there to fix? It's at least not full of characters trying to rape you like ~~*some games*~~.
