I've been realizing that dying in Diablo 4 is overly punishing. I died in a nightmare dungeon and resurrected almost by the entrance. That seems excessive. I had been farming the helltide for 20-30 minutes. Saved up roughly 600 shards...I set my controller down for less than 10 seconds, another low level player kited a bunch of mobs to me, before I could pick up my controller again, poof. 300 shards gone. Is this supposed to fake difficulty? Like...if it takes you longer to perform every single action in the game...do the devs think that makes the game more "difficult"? I just hit 100 in the season and I think I'm done with the game for good. I suppose all good things come to an end. RIP Diablo franchise. You were good to me for a long time. 🥹🥹

I agree, there was never any need to reset you at the start of the dungeon.

Even in Diablo 3 for GR's, there was a time limit and as a death penalty it respawned you but took off 30 seconds.

Instead for D4, they didnt take this system which worked well, instead they make you run 1min through no mobs to where you died.

Its another failure amongst many.

I just watched the video of the devs playing d4. It was pathetic. "Ohhh, look. I can taunt you". The discussion of the architecture of the dungeons was dramatic. They stole a ton of different aspects from different games. The shop character sounds exactly like the one from ESO. Diablo immortal is such a kick in the teeth to the franchise. They decided to remove pay to win, and replaced it with garbage cosmetics. This game just feels lazy, copy and paste Diablo 3...take out the cool stuff. Add a "pay Blizzard money" button to it and release it. How much should we charge for it? $5? No...$100+. Charge people a crap ton of money for early access, 2 days early. And a bunch of exclusive cosmetics...but then have a sale 3 months after release offering the exact same exclusive cosmetics for half the price. I'm sorry...someone needs to take Diablo out back and put him/her out of their misery. He's an old dog...time to let him rest.

I find it difficult to even launch the game and play more than 10mins anymore. The game is just boring as fk.

Aside from my original post, the game is entertaining enough. I always enjoy watching a new character develop into something cooler than it started out as. I enjoy achievement gathering. I like finishing a game 100% before moving on to another. (I rarely achieve this lol) and Diablo 4 provided some entertainment for a couple months. The cosmetics are garbage. The mounts/trophies/armor are so insignificant, I don't understand why you can even change any of it. Where in the actual f*ck is Diablo? Listen...I understand the game is boring...where in the hell is the title character? Did we all forget wtf we are playing? This isn't Lilith. If Diablo doesn't come in during Season 2 and serve Lilith on a silver platter to his minions...I'll never play a Diablo game again.

lol, wait until someone tells him the game is actually meant to be played in hardcore and he's still on practice mode.

Lol. These young gamers are so narcissistic. It's your generation that's developing these garbage games bro. You shouldn't be so proud that you play a game on hardcore when the game is under developed and really isn't ready to be played on hardcore yet. Go back under your bridge troll

Lol. You having fun playing this game on hardcore alone? Haha.
