Post comments on how the game could be an actual good game


Simple task as it’s very good already IMO..

Make Uniques since we can’t alter them tradable… Keep Legendary the same BoA.

Randomize the dungeons some… remove the static feel of objectives and make them less predictable.

Add the runewords to the game with more D2 flavor…

Add the Rifts from D3 with a D4 flavor…

Release the secret cow level and make it awesome.

Allow Helltides to produce unique dungeons that have a Hell flavor.

D2 for it’s game shaped a genre. D4 gave the genre nothing new at all. 23 years later and they made finding other players harder and pvp awful. I don’t understand why you throw d2 vs d4 all the time lol it’s cringe let’s compare ps1 to ps4 why don’t we… or let’s talk about duck hunt and super Mario end game oh wait they didn’t have one but they were legends for the era… understand this. You CANNOT compare generations


Me saying d2 isn't complex is not me comparing d2 to d4. It's a statement of fact.

Out of every unique you listed exactly two was in the games release. The rest were added years down the line.


Another failed logic point by Vicky the 55k+ crusader of an 18 year battle to claim supremacy on an online gaming forum

The early uniques were almost all best in slots before the expansion, runewords and additional uniques

Between Diablo 1 release to Diablo 2 and release of Diablo 2 Xpac = roughly 4 years, less time than these morons took to create a Diablo 4, with a huge budget and 5x more employees, lmfao Blizzard is a dumpster fire

Vick is sick take notes on this mature person disagrees with my statement has valid opinions and isn’t bashing others or insulting, I think any opinion you don’t like you insult or throw a tantrum
Knoland I’m glad you enjoy the game my opinion is only my opinion after all and good feedback

I would love to see the secret cow level brought back!!

It's not that the ability isnt there..... It's so they can charge you more later just like they did with Lod...... Have you not played a single modern game lately? Like literally any game? Stuff is released over time, not all at once..... Just like diablo 2 when they added 90% of the items later.


For a 10 year wait, there is no excuse. They could have added double of what they put up front. And milked the rest for years, while adding even on top of that. It would help with the initial player retention, give them something to look for. The treasure hunt is a fun aspect of the game. Keep them hooked and not bored.

I really enjoy the game currently.

I would like to see more end game activities, more pvp, and more trading added.

Is this the part where you throw out some fake player retention numbers that are easily refuted?

The player count people use saying D4 has millions of players online, is not giving real data, it's estimated number based off searches performed using google trend analytics

Is there a real source, or is Blizzard not telling us that people have already washed their hands with D4

Diablo 4 Player Count (Estimated) – Game Popularity Based on Google Trends

Our player count tool uses Google Trends as it’s data source. Google Trends is a tool that analyzes search queries in Google and compares search volume over time, giving a sense of the relative popularity of a search term. This isn’t an exact figure but is useful to determine the amount of attention a game is receiving over time. As for Diablo 4, as of June 27, 2023, the player count was 2,811,840. Compared to the previous day, it had a -1.12% decrease. For the last 7 days, Diablo 4’s player count peaked at 2,843,655 and reached its floor at 2,702,760.

They have 3 mil users what does your game have?


KFC serves 12 million customers a day, and the organic restaurant down the street serves 60 people a day.
It Doesn't mean those 12 million people are making the better choice by eating the fried chickens.

I want to see the source of the data they're using to define this player count until provided, the real player count is down 90%, prove me wrong
