I keep hearing my friends complain about the status of the servers. I’m just still dumbfounded that people heard it was essentially online single player and bought this anyway.
They killed Warcraft III They killed Overwatch
Why is blizzard going to pick up the ball on D4? Genuine question, no hate.
@Zuberi. Beyond the DDOS attack there other day I’ve only seen a bit of lag once or twice, no disconnects. Maybe I’m playing at less busy times. I do wish it had an offline mode but so far it’s not caused much trouble for me. As for why…I had been talking about it coming up with some friends and my wife asked what I was talking about. A few days later she surprised me with it as a gift.
The game looked fun and I knew the servers would get fixed eventually. I just waited two weeks before purchasing the game.
Honestly, I haven’t regretted it and it’s the most fun in a game I’ve had in a long time.
D3 was terrible at launch and turned into a great game. Dragonflight in wow is a great xpac.
Like all companies blizzard has it’s down sides and good sides. Historically except for immortal, diablo always turns out ok.
I’m enjoying diablo 4. D4 is not made for power gamers. It’s made for dads and moms who are now in their 40s and have kids. Most of us aren’t even in t3 yet. Hell a few weeks ago only a small percent actually completed the campaign! For us the game is great. It will get good for the hardcores soon.
I’ll be fair and admit that Blizzard still makes great games, but their monetization model and business practices are some of the vilest in the history of gaming, and I will no longer support them because of this.
To be clear, there is no monetization in D4 except skins in game. This is the first blizzard game since D3 for me, so I’m having a blast.
