  • Diablo 4 is here and it's as snappy, fun, and addicting as expected. Every single facet of this game contains measurements for the progress you make allowing it to reward you every step on your journey to defeating Lilith. To say that I'm hooked would be generous.

  • @Ahglock
    @Ahglock Год назад +87

    My only complaint is I think the ultimate should be on its own skill slot, using one of your 4 hot keys is rough. It just does not feel like you have enough options in play. Yeah, yeah it promotes different builds, but you can load so few skills you just don't try nearly as much. Edit to add, oh and there is no darkness ultimate. There is undead, blood and bone but no darkness.

    • @TheFirstRealChewy

    • @Ahglock
      @Ahglock Год назад +2

      @@TheFirstRealChewy Maybe, but while its entertaining enough to play through once unless those come out I can't see myself playing it again. Long post incoming my preferred/planned build ended up feeling pointless. Necromancer summons include 3 slots, skeletons, golem, the ultimate, 2 of those are a lot like passives in that you only really use them again in boss fights, the ultimate is okay but its got a long cool down. That really leaves one spell to play with in a build. Yeah you have the left/right click ones but those feel more like a light and heavy basic attack than a actual skill use.
      If you play into being a necromancer you just don't have much past your basic/core attacks. I kind of get it, there are like 8 active skills past the basic/core then 3 ultimates so if your have access to too many there would not be much build diversity. But some of that is a flaw in that each tier should have come with 4 skills or at least 3 active ones(bone, blood, shadow) There are only 2 curses, only 2 spells at corpse and macabre level, only 3 ultimates. There really just is not much. So they trim you down to 4 active skills and a core/basic which again feel more like basic/heavy attacks and not unique spells. Ideally they would have had enough skills that letting people have 8-10 skills would not be an issue. But failing that the ultimate on its own would at least free up 1 skill.

    • @ch1mera302
      @ch1mera302 Год назад +2

      Yeah I've had the same thought. I'm currently at lvl 54 world tier 3 with my necromancer and I've never really had an ultimate equipped for more then to try em out. Yeah the ults are neat but with the fairly large cooldown I've really felt it was more practical to have another core ability instead. But there is this voice in the back of my head always saying I'm doing it wrong for not using an ultimate ability.

      We should always have the option to play offline if it is a single player game. Diablo 3 I used to play both, offline and online. Not having this option in Diablo 4 is a step back, doesn't matter if I have internet all the time. I shouldn't be playing a single player game and get kicked off halfway into a story cutscene because the game server crashed.

      I'm fine not playing online, but it's a bummer and a deal breaker when a single player game requires internet. Essentially it renders them unplayable and useless for me when I'm at home where I do my gaming.

    Need an opinion. I've never played a Diablo game before, and I'm the type of person to play through a game until I beat it and then maybe finish a few side quests before never touching it again. From what I've seen, it seems like this game is somewhat live service (I might be wrong), so do you guys think this is a game worth getting if I just play through the campaign and do a few side quests that interest me? I do enjoy RPG's and just good games overall regardless of genre. Thanks!

      No their is so much content in just playing the story and levelling a single character (tones of fun legendaries skills amazing cosmetics and more side content than most games, that time wise it one of the best games for value and most people seem to enjoy the combat which is the most important part, the question you should ask yourself is, do you like looter shooters, cos its mostly going into dungeons, killing enimies and bosses. Their are amazing locations but its still gonna be killing different enemies, and getting loot to upgrade.
      Also as a small note the campaign is actually quite hard but the time you start getting to the end you need a good setup.
      The cinematic are the best in the series though if that was the only reason for you to get it you could technically watch them at lower quality online.
      For me as a Diablo fan its 10/10 so far.

    Right now I have a Necromancer that I’m playing solo with. And I have a barbarian with my girlfriend. We actually started out recently playing Minecraft Dungeons. I told her to also play it by herself also because it’s training for Diablo haha this is one of the smoothest launches I’ve seen for an open world RPG especially one thats online only. Quality and quantity. It’s simple, fast, but also has so much depth to it. We could be two of the same classes but play completely different. The replay value on this game is insane. That’s exactly why I bought it. I only ever buy games I know I’ll come back to.

    Great video, Matty! I LOVE loot based games! I love alternate costumes and gear stats and that crazy ridiculous looking armour but I was in the same boat as you! I always avoided Diablo! Then one of my buddies got me into D3 and it was EXACTLY what I was looking for! The, as you say, loot vomit, the crazy build opportunities and gnarly looking armour was perfect to me! Love the sense of progression the game gave me as I built huge endgame builds and crushing torment 16 rifts! I feel that’s one of Blizzards biggest feats is making you feel rewarded for hard work and patience in the game! A TRUE sense of progression! D4, imo, is the best Diablo game we’ve ever gotten (store and all) I love the dark, gothic atmosphere of it all. The best way I can describe the tone is catholic metal! I love the fine tuned gameplay, the visuals, the creature designs and of course, the LOOT! I literally cannot wait to see what this game has in store for the future! I’d love a reaper of souls like expansion for the game! Something that expands on the story and world and adds new classes, locations, mounts etc. Looking forward to future videos from the channel! Keep up the great work!

      To be honest you should have started with D2 at least , D2 Resurected , as D4 is a much more proper sequel to that game. D3 is fun and solid now ofc , so it is a nice start but D2 at least is the essential one imo .

Look I can understand if you have a costume in there and it’s $2 I can get that I’ll give you that if it’s something I want but they were asking $20 for some of this stuff I said what’s the point of even having the low tier offering of purchasable loot if everything you want to sell me is literally $20. I don’t know who the hell did the pricing for them, but they need to be fired.

  • @kooken58
    @kooken58 Год назад +1

    I am really enjoying the game, but to be honest if they want to retain players like POE, Blizz really needs to step it up with season's. It has a good base, but there is very little endgame content. And the game desperately needs more abilities for each class. There is a severe lack of build diversity and if new season's don't introduce new build types, the playerbase will drop off.
