Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

The morale in this thread has dropped so far off a cliff people are now defending it by saying at least it was better than D3 at launch? Oof.

Was just a few weeks ago when people like me who felt the game was mediocre and not worth bothering with were just so upset seeing people have so much fun.

At least it's better than D3 at launch. Got money's worth at least. At least there was something to play for a few weeks. Thread is just depressing now.

Eh. People are both still having fun with the game and acknowledging it's not going to provide infinite fun. That's hardly some kind of wild 180.

Its exactly what was the prevailing thought going in. It would be a 2-3 week thing and then wait for seasons to see how they do.

Obvious trolls are obvious.

Sure, sure. People were just casually saying they expected a few weeks of something to play, not sharing retarded memes about people furious and jealous others were have sooo much fun.

The emotional hype roller coaster has to be exhausting for those of you that do this several times a year, pretending others are furiously crying at your having tons of fun instead of just shrugging and waiting out the nonstop mediocrity from the gaming industry.

Actually, I understand the desperate fools overdosing on hype and ending up disappointed. But the people pretending they always knew it was going to be mediocre and full of issues and only a few weeks of playing anyhow who still got emotionally invested and hella hyped, well, that's a hell of a rationalization I don't understand.

Anyhow, see you nerds in 6+ months when the game is either fixed or free.

About right. ~3 weeks of playing to finish campaign and do some end game loop then get bored like every arpg. Then maybe come back if a season looks interesting enough(d3 had some fun ones so there is a chance).

Exactly what I said before launch.

Just because you want to change it , to then get upset about it, and pretend everyone wanted to play this every day for months and months. And now they are not, so I must of been right! You just sound like a bitter old man, called out on his shit and can't accept it. Can't stand other people having or had fun in something you dismissed. A behavior you casually dismissed as nonsense, aka denial. As you keep coming back.

What's exhausting is ignoring any hint of nuance and making everything a war to the death between manic extremes. Hard to have a normal discussion.

Hardly, but for whatever reason I keep holding out hope that our collection of lunatics would mellow after 25 years, not get worse.

Nightmare dungeons in particular are a disappointment - they often feel like the worst aspects of WoW Mythics and D3 Rifts mashed together; hoping to get a good key with good affixes to a good dungeon with good density, or else I'm just wasting my time.

"I need all the best items to drop every 10 minutes or else it's a shit ARPG that just wastes my time". Probably not the genre you're looking for.

Well I mean part of the reason for the game feeling like dogshit leveling is fucking scaling. God I fucking hate HATE that shit.

I could deal with the WW build a clunky piece of retarded resource starved dogshit, but you put scaling on top of it and it REALLY feels so fucking bad.

Hot take here: fuck open worlds AArpg, put the rails back on in the form of acts/chapter so scaling can go fuckitself till end game. Do whatever the fuck you want at end game idc.

The open world shit added nothing of value to the leveling experience. Also that open world is bland and monotonous, ya the map overall is huge, but like people pointed out before it's 10 flavors of fucking deserted paths.

The fuck are you even talking about? Do you think D2 didn't scale as you went through the acts or some shit? PoE doesn't scale as you go through the acts?
