what is d2r

A 20yr old game dude.

Can't assume d4 will be the same as a 20yr old game fml

why would they do that? d3 has a bigger player base and they just put out d2r

Wheres my pink unicorn skin ffs paid 29.99 for it

From what I've seen on Twitch, if you really liked d3, you'll like this game. If you didn't like d3 you might as well uninstall.

This is so disappointing. The game was clearly rushed due to the overwhelming negative response of diablo immortal. Fucking Blizzard does not give a shit about the games they release. They know they'll cash in no matter what.

Made for console gamers

It looks like D3 but I think it's too early to judge if it'll have the same flop end game.

D3 offered very little when it came to itemization. The devs literally came up with premade builds for players to search for and then once you find those specific items there's nothing left to do lol. You can't even think of a build for yourself.

We don't know enough about the itemization in D4 yet. I don't necessarily have high hopes but there's a chance it'll be good, along with all the different end-game content they plan to have.

PVP being good would be a nice bonus, hopefully it's not an afterthought like it was in D3. To be fair, it's not like the PVP was interesting or fleshed out in D2, but it just ended up working out well lol.

It looks exactly like d3. Like a d3 expansion.

I'm still going to try it out. I got a lot of entertainment value out of d3. Over 100 hours played. For only 60 bucks that's great value to me. Not close to d2 though. Which is thousands.

the new head guys of blizzard constantly force the developers to rush shit out early its every game/expansion now
i miss the days of polished blizzard games that weren't rushed out for preorder sales to help buffer a weak performing quarter



yeah d3 at launch was terrible the finished game now is much better if d4 can start more at that point it should be decent
a lot of the issues d3 had seemed to be fixed in d4 itemization so far has been much better but then again d3 was rushed out they planned to do better itemization just didn't have time
feels like the developers took time to fix some of those for d4 right away but it esulted in c opy pasted dungeon content because they didnt have time to make those better

its always something being sacrificed in a blizzard game due to being rushed out

Yep, both games have the rushed feel.

D3 was supposed to have a PVP arena which they showed years before the game came out and not only did they not have it on launch, they didn't even add it later like they said they would lol.

I don't even know what the D3 end game itemization was originally even supposed to be, I don't know if the devs knew either.

Content they added later did help but the end game depth was still shallow as hell. Nobody even wants to play through the game so they literally gift you end game set items so you can start rifting right away lol

And yeah, the D4 gameplay looks like a copy paste of D3. Dungeons, dialogue, storytelling, everything is the same.

But yeah if they spent the most time on making the end game interesting I'm fine with it.
