I might want to buy it one day (maybe once the price drops). I liked Diablo 3 for situations when you come home and just feel like slaying thousands of monsters – you know those days. I had some trouble getting the gearset right, but waddled through that somehow. So, questions:

  • Is Diablo 4 playable on PS5? (In terms of a well done console port)
  • Are the game mechanics more complicated than in the previous version? (That might break my neck)

Bonus question:

  • It’s not as terrible as Diablo Immortal, right? ;)

    I played the beta on PS5. Gameplay is pretty solid, and it’s somehow challenging at certain bosses.

    My feeling was that game doesn’t feel like Diablo but rather than a well made rpg/hackNslash game. It’s a good game, but not Diablo good.

    Maybe it’s because I got cold on Blizzard for thousands of reasons.

      RPG/HackNSlash, haha, that’s actually how I felt with Diablo 3 already. But I didn’t play it „professionally“ at all. For me, it was just a bit darker and more complicated version of Torchlight, tbh.

      Okay, so it seems safe to buy. It’s on the watchlist now. Thanks!

        I love Diablo as a series, but honestly I don’t think it is worth $70 if it’s $45 to 50 or less I would recommend picking it up and I spent $100 on the ultimate edition. I am enjoying it myself, but I love arpgs and hack and slash games

          Yeah, the price is pretty high. Considering the massive amount of playtime I can dump into it, I think it’s okay to pay some cash, but 70 € is too much for now. I will wait for a discount, that usually takes a few months only.

          I have to be honest, I balk at £70 game prices to, but if I get as much play out of this as I did D3 over the years its not bad value for money.
