You have to remember at the end of the day Diablo was originally a solo game the vast majority are still playing solo. The fact that group play is so strong for xp, mythic farming and everything else is just brutal for solo players. I usually have to purchase my mythics with resplendent shards. This could be why most people are not making it to end game trying to survive in world tier 4 is very difficult without a bunch of group play.
If you don't understand "all the hate" after 7 seasons of D4 .... then you'll probably never get it lol. People are over Blizzard. It's less about "hate" and more about "too little too late"
Every Season is just adding small features to the game that should have been there on launch. Garbage company. Garbage game. POE2 is so much better and makes D4 feel like a giant waste of time.
@@Next-Up-GamingHard disagree. I think you haven’t played for awhile. Season 5 was when they had reworked the whole crafting/masterworking and this changed everything. In addition, they changed the max cap lvl to 60 and focused on gaining paragon points with stat squishes. These were by no means “small.” Also, just because it might be small, it doesn’t mean it’s insignificant, such as no longer needing to restart dungeon when fighting Uber bosses. D4 is getting so much better. No need to hate on this game and watch D4 content if you are offering uninformed critiques.
ppl mistake fighting for a purpose with being petty. These ppl think they are better than another person because of what game they play... they are children is what i am trying to say
@@StrikerTVFang A lot of new D4 players arrived on forums just after Black Friday, then again over the holidays. It's all fresh and new to them. All the disenfranchised commenters make no sense to them. "Too little, too late" isn't relevant to a lot of players. I say this as a long-time (many thousands of hours) D2, D3, D4 & POE1 player.
I don't understand Aura of Lament. The top half says "...for each enemy inside the aura...", then the bottom half says "may only affect 1 enemy at a time."
The aura infects one enemy at a time. It and nearby enemies inside the aura radius are affected by the Slow CC. It's an AOE curse - I like the idea. Leeching resource from each of the affected enemies is pure gravy.
Less people can play on a Tuesday.. servers won’t have as much traffic as they would on a weekend release. Sucks.. a lot of my friends can’t really play until the weekend and they are often very “behind” at that point
As a retired game dev, I can tell you that emergency bug fixing over a weekend is not popular. Final launch prep on Monday, live on Tuesday, bug stomping Wednesday through Friday, hopefully a free weekend to regain energy, balance and sanity. It's better than a Friday release for sure. Also means that the surge of players at the weekend should get the benefits of some earlier emergency patches.
@@tribaltalker1608 I appreciate your point of view but who is more important to keep happy, staff or customers? Saying that, I realize its not a big deal for most players. Thanks for the reply.
Brought the xpac last week. Going full Gorilla thorn build with a little tad of toxic skin for dot dmg. So far just hit 60 and off the bat with this build i am into Torment 1. Lets go!!
I use Lucky Hit to make up for my limited dexterity and stamina. A three-button build is what I aim to play in any class. Taking away the tools that help so much for people like me is short sighted. Reducing the efficacy of LH effects could be manageable; reducing the scope and range of effects might be very bad for me. If Lucky Hit CC application and automatic damage is going to be restricted, Blizzard needs to find ways to make their joystick and keyboard inputs friendlier for disabled players and those of us with arthritis or other hand/finger ailments. The current toggle on/off input settings are almost useless in actual play. Also, we need the numlock trick on a joystick!
Hi Slaydra. When you were commenting while the devs were talking, I couldn't make out what you were saying. I didn't watch the whole video as a result. It was unintelligible too much of the time. Shame. Some people use a mic that suppresses background noise while they are speaking. Would have been useful here.
Kappa123 cant wait to play, PoE was never my thing. I think they did address aspect issues in the last camp fire stating that the ancestrals will start at the cap of normal aspects. Hopefully it's just a missed note.
Good news! You can play on Eternal instead. I know people who prefer long-term continuity over the excitement of new shiny things (a.k.a seasons) and they seem to be doing fine.
@ and those people are punished by not getting seasonal track progress. Fomo is bad idk why people have to be so fucking weird about it. The elitism of ‘bad cuz can’t no-life the game’ is so asinine.
Diablo hate is just dumb people. If you hate it so much, dont watch these videos. Get a life. Diablo isn't perfect, and there are seasons i stopped playing in the first month. But i enjoyed it while I played it. Then, on to another game during downtime.
The armory is great but long overdue. They need a MAJOR game update that isn't tied to a paid expansion. Half ass seasonal themes are just going to keep losing them players to better ARPGs.
Poe 2 has a plethora of issues right now. The state of the warrior class, the end game with inexplicable insta-deaths, gratuitous and extreme punishing nature of maps, tedious nature of having to always replay the campaign when leveling alts, and the list goes on. D4 at least refined itself over the seasons. I know Poe 2 is in early access so it’ll take time. It will become better but it’ll take time.
meanwhile half the poe population is gone within a month. after next month will be peaking in the high 100k- low 200k mark with diablo having a higher pop because of new season and all the streamers will switch over, because they are greedy for content, so viewers will too. and then a couple months later PoE will add more content and they will inflate pop then diablo will have a new season a few months later and their pop will inflate... welcome to ARPGs this is how it's always been
The armory is going to be BY FAR the greatest QOL weve had in along time. The sheer joy to insta swap builds 🎉🎉🎉
WE just got the group finder last season. That was big QoL for running endgame content and doing Hordes, bossing, Citadel, and Pit (SB only)
For real.. so nice! Be able to actually test builds easily and smoothly
@jasonbonadio8870 yes can save my build then try a new build and do A B testing

They hate us

@@robertwelch1443 I'm in the same boat. I usually can't get time to play until Friday evening.

At least you believe your own lies, brother.

Drud lets go
You’ve never given up on them.. maybe this will be their season 🔥🤞
@@robertwelch1443 in a game, if you have fun playing, every season is it's season whatever it is
Im down for hota/quake
I would enjoy arpgs more if I didn’t have to start a new character every season.

I reapeat diablo 4 is a good game getting to much hate over poe 2

it really says something that playing a copy of s2 looks a lot more fun than the trash named poe2
Cringe
If by fun you mean doing pits 100,000,000,000x and playing around in green helltide then it is super fun 😂

Anyone actually playing Diablo lmfao
lmfao yeah cauae poe2 is easier dogshit than d4 😂😂😂 there both a joke
