Diablo 4 preview: Hands-on with Blizzard's darker, dirtier sequel

From Games Radar: "There are no clean victories in Diablo," Diablo 4 executive producer and Blizzard co-founder Allen Adham tells us. "The world is not your typical clean world where the good guys always win and evil is always vanquished." He's not wrong: the demo we play is grungy with blood, pus and other assorted bodily fluids. Within the space of 20 minutes, we see a cursed young boy choke to death on his own vomit, the reanimated corpses of waterlogged humans pushing their faces through the mud and a Druid rip a rotting corpse in half like so much wet tissue paper. It may still have that distant, isometric camera keeping you above the action, but Diablo 4 wants to make you feel like you're right in the middle of the fray. "

But what about the sexual orientation of the demons and monsters? Or do we have to wait with baited breath for an official announcement reveal date like with Tracer from Overwatch?

Palitera1601d ago

Is that so important to you? Why is that the first thing that comes to your mind? Hmmm...

kreate1601d ago

Cant wait for those demon boobs.

He is making a sarcastic comment, and you don’t get it.

Palitera1601d ago (Edited 1600d ago )

No, you don't get it. He actually brought sexual orientation into here "as a joke" as a right winger good boy, probably obsessed with "unorthodox sexualism". I just wonder why these people are so passive agressive about it... :D

Fluttershy771601d ago

Well I prefer an honest statement, sarcasm its quite toxic

FlameBaitGod1601d ago

I'm sorry to hear you are this stupid Fluttershy77, get brain cells soon.

People sure like to complain about stuff they claim not to care about. Pure distilled irony.

Druid gameplay was just so fucking ferocious and visceral, i really thought I would be Barb main but Druid more than took the cake for me.

And I love that they're adding outdoor world pvp and mounts as well as world bosses. All just amazing features. The closer this gets to being an MMO the happier i get lol

Smokehouse1601d ago

Sounds cool. A free Hong Kong sounds cooler.

Gaming4Life19811601d ago

I cant wait to get my hands on this game.

A live service micro fest, it's cheap like WoW. Hopefully that Diablo 2 project gets more love.

This game is about to get buried by Path 2.

Still no global chat or group finder.

The emptiest MP game ever made.

OtterX1d 19h ago

1 more month then I can celebrate 1 year since i stopped playing and uninstalled the game.

Walalon1d 17h ago

We are on the same team brother!

I uninstalled d4 after they kept screwing over the sorc build and I beat the game. I also uninstalled immortal after reading the end. I actually went back to d2r here and there.

The only thing i enjoyed in D4 was the mp side but after they gutted my hunter build then again wanted me to grind for over hundred hours each season i too quit like you.

Its insane though a year has already passed.

Hard pass, gave it a chance on launch with a friend, but we made it a bit past act 1 only to realise how tedious it was.

Is Diablo IV worth it for the Single-Player experience today? I understand it has got many patches and improvements.

Daeloki13d ago

I honestly don't know what they could have changed/patched to make the game enjoyable since last summer. I played the campaign a bit past act 1 with a friend and it just becomes incredibly boring and repetitive. I uninstalled shortly after and haven't looked back. However, with me it may just be a case of that it's not my kind of game. I just didn't enjoy the endless cycle of going into a dungeon, collect loot, teleport to town, sell/dismantle, teleport back to dungeon, collect loot, teleport to town, sell/dismantle... rinse and repeat. That cycle was about 80% of the game back then, completely drowning out the story for me. If there is a demo, or you have a chance to test a friends copy then I'd recommend that before spending any money on it.

I loved D3 and would play a season for weeks.
D4 came out I reached level 60 ish and grew bored, I tried again in S1 and got to the same level and quit. I heard about the loot revamp, and briefly tried season 3 before jumping into the new season.
The game is better because it's easier to feel this progression smoothly increase, without hitting such a large road block, but I am level 61 and in Torment 4, and again I just don't feel the urge to continue.

I found a lack of direction of what to do, the thing that puts me off is the bland world, hell-tides are rather boring. Kill a non stop spawn of demons and summon a boss...

If you can get it for cheap, give it a try, or do a Gamepass trial and play it there.
