SquidGains: $40 stepping stone.. Oof. "When it finally felt like things were getting into motion and things were about to happen, the campaign was over" is brutal.
breadbaskets2772: Once again a 40$ price point is just too much for an expansion/dlc. Ill wait for a sale
Schizm1: As a solo player I'm kinda giving up on the game. Entire endgame system in, what was famously single player game with optional coop, locked behind forced coop and further MMOfication of D4 is just no longer for me:/
Don't get me wrong - I'm glad some players, especially new ones or mmo fans are liking it, but for me it's something totally NOT suited for loot based aRPG.
Thankfully... Path of Exile 2 is hitting early access next month <3
dreamer5234: This is worth 20 dollars max.
ImKingRs: Your comment about the story ending is exactly how I felt about the main game. I was a bit like ‘is that it?’
Will give this a miss
ddog4171: The price for this dlc to me is ridiculous for one new class.
pauperslament3467: I remember when gaming didnt need the internet.
undeadamerican1107: It felt like a DLC or season content and not an expansion at all. Certainly pretty limited content for the $40 price tag!
user-cy9vd7rl4h: I didn't understand why people ignore Grim Dawn. Then someone pointed out GD is solely a ARPG for ARPG lovers. POE is a micromanaging trade/spreadsheet simulator, D3/4 are MMOs with an ARPG shell and weak ARPG systems, both games loaded with micro transactions.
Diablo will always be bigger, has Blizzard name and money and is multiplayer. But GD is the spiritual successor to Diablo 2. It has the right amount of depth and pace. Give it a go, game and all expansions are cheap and it's single purchase, no micro transactions.
dmgisi: My take on the review is:
The expansion is terribly overpriced and not worth buying until it gets a 50% discount.
The content is probably too short to deserve an expansion, since its story is only a stepping stone for a future expansion.
Blizzard made a whole mess of the skill and leveling systems, which they are still trying to organize, and someday, probably around the third expansion, it will be polished and worth playing, but not yet.
As usual the game looks beautiful and appealing, but the product is unfinished.
MovieKiller333: They finally took a look at diablo 3 and accepted the fact that it did in fact had some good ideas and mechanics. The game is finally looking good after 1 year
happy......: Brother, I haven't even finished downloading it yet. And you are already 100% it...
poatrykdas: everyone: we want paladin!
blizzard: druid v2 it is
x_data_x: Plenty of other stuff to play right now/until this drops in price a bit. Seems like $40 is asking a lot. Thanks for the review dude!
tippidink: Thanks for saving me 40 clams. Subbed.
Benneth2012: Mortismal Gaming has become my go to person I trust for reviews of games I might like.
TheTickyTickyTicky: I ain't buying anything from them again until they put the lord of terror himself in the game.
bonquaviusdingle5720: Still can’t get over how aggressive micro transactions are in this $60 game
marlowencna: I hate that every 4-6 MOs my old gear is "obsolete".
I like to play old (seasonal) eternal characters to see how it holds up to current Meta. It wont be possible if they keep reworking itemization
thomasace2547: They finally have updated D4 with all the good stuff from D3
It’s still no D2, but can’t wait to play VoH tomorrow
TENEBRAELGAMING: Play Grim Dawn instead guys
NATIK001: I would have given the expansion a chance, but I refuse to play aRPGs which make raiding a vital part of the experience, all excitement I had for the expansion died when they announced raids would be coming to the game.
Stoneforge1501: Would be fun if they added an officer class similar to Rogue Trader, where you primarily buff mercenary companions for crazy combos.
oguzozgul1678: The problem for with the whole D4 DLC is that there is absolutely ZERO original new idea added to the game. Everything is a re-hash of D3 including endgame mechanics, gems, runewords that are actually dumbed down, mercenaries that are dumbed down, rifts that are renamed to something else... Hell even the whole story and vibe/character of Neyrelle is a re-do of Leah character.
