Man I was really hyped for Diablo 4 but I think I just finished act 3 recently and I’m already bored. I don’t know what it is that makes the game so soulless to me
I agree but I’ve been around from Diablo 1 original launch and in my fourties now so I was just chalking it up to me growing out of it (“it” being Diablo and maybe gaming at large). I’m really bummed about it though because I expected a completely different feeling, even buying my console largely for it. Diablo 2 Resurrected cheated me, maybe out of nostalgia. I found that one really fun and thought D4 would learn D3 lessons and be amazing. But I barely feel anything playing through its campaign. It just feels like work. That I’m following a carefully planned treadmill and pacing with the monster scaling and all. In a grey world with generic monsters. Maybe it’s me, maybe it’s the game, maybe it’s both, but it’s made me finally begin disregarding Blizzard Entertainment games…
Its dead after the story. They nuked endgame content imo.
Was not happy with the patch notes but signed in with my 4 friends. We beat the start of the new season stuff, then immediately saw how shit the season was about to be.
Basically after 2 short missions, you do NMD only. Helltide is worse than useless, which sucks because it was my favorite solo casual grind for endgame.
All 5 of us were off the game within an hour. We decided to go back to playing old games. 2 of us went back to playing Diablo 2 lol.
