I know this game saw a rough start (seems to be the norm at this point), but if anybody bought this game and abandoned it, this might be the time to give it another shot.

The loot has been completely reworked and is much improved. They’ve added new tempering and masterworking systems that are well done.

If you liked greater rifts in D3 they’ve essentially added that in the form of The Pit (I’d argue it’s actually better than GRs).

Helltide has also been improved and is actually quite enjoyable.

If you haven’t played in a while it’s worth trying out again.

I'm in the minority. They've made nearly everything way too easy.

You just explained what’s wrong with gaming. No one wants a challenge anymore. Casuals ruined gaming.

I think the 1-100 grind has been made much easier, but I think The Pit offers as much difficulty as you could ask for. Now, outside of that, maybe it’s been made a little too easy.

I have been having a blast with Whirlwind Dirt Devil Barb. This Season is the most fun I've ever had playing Diablo.

I've ran probably 20 uber Duriel in a group of 3 and not a single one of us has found an uber unique yet.

Pits aren't easy and uber bosses aren't easy, but I agree the grind seems off. The game can't make up it's mind what it wants to be yet. All things considered this season has been more bearable.

fired it up this weekend and had some fun with the changes. Can definitely see myself trying out multiple toons this season since it’s so easy to get them to wt4 now

Summoner Necro is insane this season

season rankings: 4, 2, 3, 1

this is the most newbie/dad friendly season so far but the hardcore players still have the pit and ubers

A game i actually like.

I heard the game was not good, but that season 4 was outstanding.


Gamepass ultimate is amazing. While im not taking advantage of the cpu games, im enjoying testing and checking out other games to find one i like.

Diabalo 4 was one if ound, and enjoy. Would like to find groups to go delving with, seems like fighting big bosses would be cool with large groups.

I figure 2 games if bought would be $160 at the least, game pass for many games on console and pc is $180 a year. great deal, and i havent touched pc yet


I'm playing as a druid, its a fun class, but i've noticed classes where the character has like 10 ghosts, 8 creatures, etc fighting with them, as part of their magic . can i get 6-8 wolves to appear and fight with me, or only a few, still checking out classes.

Also, while playing as a druid, there is a perk where you turn into were wolf, and immediately start attacking everything around you with slashes. i had one slash do 600 damage, and something did 1100 damage.


i heard a necro is OP

There’s a skill for summoning wolves on Druid. Not sure how many you can summon.

I'm playing a double swing dust devil barb. I'm enjoying it quite a bit - just cleared a lvl 60 Pit run. I'd like to try to push all the way to 100, but I'm not sure I'll make it.

Season 4 is ok. For me the 1-100 process is a slog. I don't like how there is this sacred and ancestral step up in gear just to force you to regear and reapply aspects to make you feel like you're making a lot of progress. They could have just made itemization more interesting and potential to find an item at low levels that you use for a long time like in other ARPGs, but they chose to make everything ilvl based.

You can do the WT3 capstone dungeon at level 30 and the WT4 capstone dungeon at level 50. The game is just entirely too easy and poorly balanced and they did so out of fear to try to keep dads playing longer.

I don't like how much of a chore 1-100 is after you realize you have to complete that grind just to be able to get into the pit and further upgrade gear. I know it doesnt take that long, but even a 10-12 hour gatekeeping session is too much for someone like me that is just thinking about more fun games I could be playing with my time. I also still hate nightmare dungeons and don't like that you are forced to do those for glyph levels.

I would say that season 4 is mostly a step forward, but I still wouldn't recommend this to any of my friends. It's still an uninspired game.

I tried to pmay this at launch and could never get the game to launch. Reinstalled multiple times never workwd. This was PC. Would like tp retry it but dont have faith. Diabl II or 3 will no longer launch either. Something to do with the Blizzard launcher I guess.

I have only fought, 1 major boss, and it was by accident and walked into the big fight.

Is there like a notice, and an area we can auto travel 2, to join the fight?? I've seen a timer for big boss, but never looked for a link or area to go to, and ended up doing another quest
