I'll definitely get it, there's no way I can play like I did during 2 and 3 though. No interested in the remastered 2, been there done that.

Lacks the grittiness of 1 and 2. That was my problem with 3. Looks too cartoony now
Where's the forebodingness now? Doesn't exist

Really lacklustre cinematics.. didn't hype me up one bit. Plus the quality of it actually seems to have gone backwards since the D3 one, even the cinematic for WOTLK was better than this one. Concerning

The music and the graphics tell me it's made specifically for Generation Z
Not a fan of the direction at all
Not surprised though, it's just an extension of D3 which I thought was pretty abhorrent

D3 didn't really improve until Reaper of Souls which is when became probably the best looter and most addictive game loop. As long as that's the starting point and not launch D3 then it should be a winner.

Looks good. I like that it's cross platform so I don't need a new PC to play with the missus. Diablo 3 was pretty much the only game we've ever played together (she ain't a gamer).

I've been playing since 6am and am only level 10... Crashed a few times and then a 60-90 min queue. I have enjoyed it though so far and I think it looks great. My PC is quite old now, it runs the game but it gets choppy at times. 45 mins to go on this queue.

I won't get a chance to play beta but the most obvious question is it more like Diablo 3 at launch or post Reaper of Souls?

It's gonna launch just as well as D3 did, giving me flashbacks already lol
Got about six hours in (playing on PS5) before a bug trapped me in a mine.
Pretty enjoyable so far - Fire Sorcerer to Level 10. Dungeons and random encounters/open world events the highlights.
Druid/Necro both unavailable.

Played all day and got a Sorceror to lvl 19 so far.
Had very little trouble once I got in and had a great time, played in a group with my brother and everything worked well.

I'm at level 21 on a barb, I don't know if it's my PC but when I'm in town in rubber banding really bad. The PC is pretty old though. Been using whirlwind but had to respec for the campaign bosses, I couldn't beat then.
I've really enjoyed it so far.

Tbh the skill tree confuses the hell out of me, but at least it's not as insanes' as POE
Played through the "Act 1" campaign that was available and I'm pretty impressed/excited overall.
Still think I'll main Druid in the full game, but the Sorcerer was great fun.
- Plot and vibe is a lot darker: much more in line with II than III. Some definite Hellraiser vibes from some of Lilith's cutscenes and a couple of the quests.
- Levelling combines the best parts of II and III - scope to specialise and invest in specific skills and builds from Two, but with the flexibility and ability to respec without it being cripplingly expensive.
- Might be a consequence of too much post-game farming with max level, geared up characters in 3, but the combat and some of the dungeons felt a lot more intense. No cheesing your way through.
- Graphics and effects were pretty speccy (even on console)
- The shared world worked well for me - the random groupings for the big open world events and battles held up pretty well.

With open beta this weekend, anyone with a 3080ti should be cautious. Not sure how wide spread it is but more and more articles are starting to pop up.

Multiple PC users are reporting that their expensive NVIDIA RTX 3080 Ti video cards had bricked while playing the recent Diablo IV early access beta test.

Played a bit this weekend. Love the dark art style again. Usually don't like games taking over my hardware RGB but changing my keyboard and mat to blood red and having effects when I level up and stuff was actually really cool.
Definite purchase for me.

Yep open beta has sucked me in to a preorder, although I was probably always going to buy it I guess. Love this series

I've played most of the day when I was only going to check it out. Wasn't vibing with rogue originally but once I got shadow imbuement that change. Might look up some builds once the beta ends in preparation for release. I think still another day to go on beta so if I get a chance tomorrow night I might give sorcerer a go. I don't want to default back to barb first time because that's what I normally do.
Even the story is working for me. While Diablo games have always been about the game loop and loot pinata the story has always been just there to get you from A to B. So far the story in 4 is a little more involved and some of the side quests are really messed up. I was dubious that they could pull off Diablo 4 after Immortal but I think they're going to absolutely nail it.
