It has certainly met my expectations. While I'm not super stoked about the money store, I see no reason to be threatened by it, it exists for those that buy from it and otherwise I will continue ignoring it
Story has been great so far, I'm no where near the end and my power fantasy has been well met as a primarily bone Necro.
I think I would rate it as a 3.5 of 5 right now. It looks great and combat plays really fluid, and your character looks great! There are a number of issues underpinning it that together make me not as invested as I was with Diablo 2 and Diablo 3. I'm not super hungry for spare time to play Diablo 4 but I think it's "fine".
However, I think Blizzard will have some nice updates to come because my problems with the game is echoed by so many others, like itemization, skill and build variety and high-level end game progression. In these regards, I wouldn't be surprised if we're looking at a vastly updated game already by autumn.
So that's why I'm happy that the core of Diablo 4 looks and feels good because that'd be harder to fix than the spreadsheet-like data.
I really like it so far. 51 bone necro myself. starting to feel a bit lost now but still having fun. I think there is still plenty of thing I don’t get yet. Agree on the store.
Having a great time so far. It's definitely in a much better state then D3 was at launch, or even a while after. And the amount and quality of content is way beyond D2.
Biggest thing in watching blue is how they update the game going forward. If they can keep building on and improving the game, then I think I'll be enjoying this game for quite a while.
Currently at lvl 69 as a Bone Spear Necro. Been enjoying it for the most part, but there are things popping up every now and again that are somewhat detrimental to the experience. Will be interesting to see the first big patch.
