I don't get why this game, aesthetically, looks so fucking bad?
I mean, D4 looks so grey and boring. D3 looked too colorful. D2 really was the perfect combination of colors and greyness...

- Awesome looking character section and characters reminiscent of diablo 2
- Awesome looking diabolic and undead enemies.

What? Really , booo That sucks. I will play solo, like I did d1 and d2, but why do these devs keep leaving out couch co-op.
WE had more couch co-op 2 decades ago then today. I don't want to play online, I want to play the game with my wife or people over, like i can in D3 and borderlands.

Focus on single player? Well i hope it has good online/local co-op regardless... my wife and i played a crazy amount of hours together in D3, hoping for the same here.
If anything the lack of an always online mode was absolutely detrimental to the console versions of the game. Something they are luckily fixing this time around (i.e. it's always online with crossplay).

Personally always online won't be a problem. Just the damn lag. Regardless I really like the look of this one. I hated 3 with cartoony look and hiw easy it was.

I wouldn't buy into the single player focus nonsense. This is an always online MMO lite. You experience the single player story stuff once and then it becomes something you blow past to get to the end game so you can grind with others for better gear.

Pick up Last Epoch. It’s one of the best ARPGs out.

They don't want to focus on that before launch. Right now they're asking the press to focus on specific talking points to distract from the fact that the game is an MMO lite with MTX. Especially after the blowback they got with Overwatch 2.

??? When’s the last time you played D2? It had no color. At all. Lol

Ask me about my wife's perfect butthole
They had an entire blog about their battle pass/MTX a few months ago.
It's hardly a secret.
The game will have cosmetics only MTX.
People are welcome to freak out about it but I find it rather pointless. Extra transmogs are hardly worth getting upset over, for me, personally.

I like the ability to turn off the story and just kill things. No need to skip cut scenes before a battle.
I hope they still have the ferrets that run around collecting gold for you.

Jim Ryan needs to thank Phil Spencer for allowing this. What a nice guy.

Looks like evade/dodge mechanics will fundamentally built in to the gameplay:
"Diablo 4 provides more options in the battle against demonic forces. Though enemies may surround you, you now have a new tool at your disposal with the evade mechanic. Evade acts as an evolution to Diablo 3’s dodge roll. The maneuver (on a short cooldown) allows all players, regardless of the selected class, to dash a short distance in any direction to dodge enemies during battle. It can make you feel unstoppable when used perfectly in tandem with the classic Diablo hack n’ slash combat. And if you want to become more nimble in battle, then you can buff it with items like special boots that add a speed boost after it’s performed."

Diablo 3 had challenging combat too, they scrapped it instead of fixing balance issues and now you have to grind all the up to high GRs before the game becomes remotely challenging. Hopefully the difficulty is more thought out this time. With as little interest I have in this game, my wife and I have spent a ton of time with couch coop and I expect this will be worth it at least for that. Low expectations never hurt when something ends up being great anyways.

I have a bit of hope, but knowing the new Blizzard, we will still see a shop with skins and xp speed ups. If that's the case I'm outtie.

There is absolutely no way that is not the case, we will be lucky if its not complete pay to win
