I've certainly gotten to play a lot more D4 since this video's recording, so I'll probably do a review soon enough. Is that something you'd like to see down the road? ALSO, Channel Members get early viewings of new videos, as well as Behind the Scenes content and more: tinyurl.com/5n738rsb
You might hate the cash shop, I might hate the cash shop, anyone with a functioning brain might hate the cash shop. But it doesn't matter. Because there's a LOT of people literally throwing money in the garbage, funding this crap. And there's NOTHING we can do about it.
the money from those things should be taxed at like 80% at least and used for better causes than the salary of their CEOs. If they don't want to do that cash shops should be illegal.
@@timestimesx7535 They won't stop using these strategies until people stop supporting it. No matter what the ceo makes, the consumers are too braindead.
7:53 I am playing Diablo 3, it's the same, sometimes you are the Main Man, sometimes you run for your life in circles and pray for the enemies to not split up 😂😂 It is good and funny, refreshing thing about the game
Hey @Nixxiom what made you stop doing Warcraft what if videos? And would you be inclined to do more? If so I’ve got some ideas. 1: What if Kelthuzad was a double agent and was working on a way to resurrect the Lich king culminating with his return during the events of Shadowlands. 2: What if Arthas never broke up with Jaina proudmore. 3: What if the black rock orcs in that one mission in the campaign path of the damned joined the undead scourge restarting Nerzhuls shadow moon clan.
all of the cons you mentioned were there in the base game as well, and that is what made me quit and never come back. seeing them double down on it, now i know i made the right choice, Diablo is dead.
I feel you fuck that game but don't you dare fucking disrespect d2 you little inbred troglodyte that's till there and an amazing experience no matter how bad blizzard gets or even if it's already dead nothing can take away for d2
no they reworked them all in season 4, now the secondary stats that come with gear are much simpler and you get a max of 3 stats on a legendary item instead of 4, and 4 stats as uniques, but now yellow items are useless since they will only roll with 2 stats rather than 4 like legendary and they fill in your bag in case you want to want to turn them into legendariies. these random stats always are related to your class and only few will affect you negatively unless you run a specific meta build which then you have to rummage through legendaries with 2 of the 3 BIS stats cuz u can always reroll the third forever Also there is a new system that is called tempering that allows you to add 2 extra stats in a category of your choice but they are random between 2-4 of that category and they are more class specific usually and also simple stats, the ones like get 40% crit damage on slowed targets while vulnerable are gone for good, now you just get 40% crit damage instead
"The Church Is Evil" Is a trope of Diablo games. Because the Angels aren't good in the Diablo world. They are just the other side of the coin of the Demons. Most of the Angels in Diablo also think all the humans should be wiped out as they were created as progeny of a Demon and an Angel. They want the whole of Sanctuary wiped out. Also, if we're talking about tropes the "out of california" trope is a bit more played out by now than "the church is evil." I think D4 sucks and I didn't get the expansion. Personally I think the Diablo team didn't want to make an RPG so the game they did make isn't for me. But don't let your brain get into lazy ruts, Nixxiom! "California bad" "they are attacking the church because they are California liberals" whatever. It's small minded. You can do better. Unrelated: Tom Bombadill could not have destroyed the ring. He could have kept it safe until all the rest of Middle Earth was destroyed. But he would have lost track of it and when the rest of Middle Earth was overrun by Sauron, his power would have diminished with it as his power is connected to the land he calls his home. This is all explicitly stated in the Fellowship of the Ring (book not movie) during the Council of Elrond before the founding of the Fellowship. It is suggested they give the ring to Tom to keep safe while they fight Sauron and Gandalf says it won't work for the reason Nixxiom states. They aren't even sure throwing the ring into the fires of Mount Doom will destroy it either. It's just the best idea they have.
The Church thing is absolutely stupid. Yes, Angels hate Nephalems just like Demons. But Humans/ Nephalems should help each other in order to survive and not idolize Angels or Demons like we have in D4. In the past Diablo games, humans were looking for power and that is what corrupted them, however, the corruption in D4 feels like it's more sentimental. Nobody is looking for power in D4 but they still get corrupted cause rhey have bad feelings....
@@zenshakujo8070 D4's plot is all over the place and it doesn't seem to acknowledge it's own lore or the lore of past Diablo games. Lilith and her followers brutally murdering people seems like it's just there because her philosophy is objectively better than Inarius's but she needed to be the bad guy for the first game. Her philosophy is "You should be free, and I want the Demons and Angels to be unable to access Sanctuary so my children are free to do what they want and define themselves." At least that is what I understood from her scenes and the dialog of several characters. But she's the bad guy because she and her followers flay randos. Inarius meanwhile wants to control everyone and kinda hates humans. In previous games, it's not clear what religion there even is. In diablo 1 the game takes place descending through a Chapel. But who was being worshipped or why is not really delved into in the game itself (although I remember vaguely some lore in the instruction manual). The chapel was corrupted, Lazarus the priest kidnapped the kid. Adria is a witch, what she believes in isn't clear. And there's vague references to the Horadrim that get explored more in D2. In D2, there's again a Monastery that the Rogues had fled. What the Rogues were doing in the Monastery and what was being worshipped there is again unclear and unimportant. Anyway we could go on. The games have always highly featured some kind of church or church iconography but the church is always vaguely defined. Tyrael is the first divine being we meet and he is fighting evil but is willing to sacrifice humans to do it. Sending Marius on a quest he knows he can't complete is peak "I don't give a crap mortal, do the thing! I gotta fight this demon!" It's always been in Diablo that power structures are corrupt because the world of Sanctuary is inherently hellish. Which is why Leah's "Demon's are real??!?!!" Moment is so wtf. Yeah they are real dum dum... where have you been living this whole time?
@@ZombieApocalypse09 the Zakarum faith is pretty set in stone, there are a variety of religions present in Diablo, D4 doesn't really change much but add a new one built around Inarius.
So you admit you paid 70$ or more and just did the campaign, which is less than 30 hours of play. You reviewing the dl- sorry update, means you don't really know what the issues were and which are still present. We get it, it's a casual game made for casual players that like pretty graphics and flashy skills, not for ARPG fans.
You are projecting too much with your focus on the Church It's a theme even Berserk uses It's not a comment on your religious choice, its a comment on human nature and power The morality of the Church only matters because it has been invested with power which does things to our human nature.
Come on guys, it's not shit, it's just not the diablo we're used to. And guys at GGG also making something completely different from diablo we're used to. It's just more fun and more of a move forward while D4 is a sidestep
Fortunately and unfortunately for you. You were fortunate enough not to waste your time playing the past 5 seasons. Unfortunately for you. You will get bored extremely fast and realize why everyone is still complaining and quitting the game. I just installed WOW because of D4
Honestly the only time the store shows up like that is when they have something new, otherwise it sits in the background. they actually dont overly push it. not best overall store, but they really dont shove it nearly a much as a korean mmo.
Real talk I couldn't care less about shitty d4 no one cares anymore but I'm gonna watch this and finish it so you get the ad revenue because I like to support you but can I just say it's super lame you haven't made a video of wow classic yet that's what people want and one last thing again who cares about d 4 when you have d2 resurrected

No
Yes, even if the game is ass, do a review!
Is diablo 4 a prequel to diablo 2? The corruption of the the church is kinda mephistos thing. Also the Mia diablo would also make sense 😅
You might hate the cash shop, I might hate the cash shop, anyone with a functioning brain might hate the cash shop.
But it doesn't matter.
Because there's a LOT of people literally throwing money in the garbage, funding this crap. And there's NOTHING we can do about it.
Sad but this is the truth, same marketing with EA. The predatory is constantly used because it constantly works for them.
one question...did you play SPIRITBORN
the money from those things should be taxed at like 80% at least and used for better causes than the salary of their CEOs. If they don't want to do that cash shops should be illegal.

@ Nope, nor do I plan on it.
*Any game that forces their cash shop in my face, it puts me off, and dont bother with it.*
Centipede is good until you want to try endgame anything. Then you’ll realize Eagle/Panther is the real stronk
Compared to launch, D4 feels a LOT better rn
Wow, what a compliment. Now that blizzard has milked a 100 dollars out of you and you're content with a slightly better version than launch.

are the secondary stats still the same? honestly one of the biggest reasons why I quit playing diablo 4 in the first place

Also there is a new system that is called tempering that allows you to add 2 extra stats in a category of your choice but they are random between 2-4 of that category and they are more class specific usually and also simple stats, the ones like get 40% crit damage on slowed targets while vulnerable are gone for good, now you just get 40% crit damage instead
also the gearing is different now, you have ways of targeting the items you want specifically

Either PoE if you're a hardcore or Last Epoch if you want a more relaxing experience.

''Diablo 4: Power of Friendship'' would be more accurate name for the expansion.
I'll pick the game up.when they add paladin
Love the vids, hate the paid addon BS for CLASSIC WOW!! Wtf man lol
Get to torment level and you'll see quickly why the other SB builds like crushing hand and quill volley are played.over poison
Her name is "Plot Device"
who remembers his doing a deep voice
Nice.
Unironically buzz cut spiritborn is hot 🥵. Reminds me of chick from mass effect 2
