I prefer the centered hud. I feel it makes it easier to keep an eye on health/resources/cooldowns without having to look away from the action.

[@TobiasSherman]

You would be surpised. The reason you think it's easier is b/c you have trained your eyes to go there. If you commit to 2 weeks the other way you may never go back after your eyes are re-trained.

[@Voce24]

I greatly prefer the corner layout, but I use center to more easily monitor buff durations. Wish there was an option to move the buff & debuff bar.

[@TobiasSherman]

@@Voce24 EXACTLY, that would be the most ideal. ie Barrage Rogue with the combo strat. you need to see if your combo procs off 1 hit or 3.... Impossible to see in corner OR center.

[@mindnetic9]

Agreed

[@maxmustermann3938]

With the exception of cooldowns, we can now put health and resource bars above our character in S5 :). I would like some better cooldown monitoring options though for sure.

[@RobertEdwards1974]

I use the shift key to keep me from moving when I am doing long range skills.

[@OwnModeGaming]

That is solid what you have the skill on the mouse.

[@psyendacy]

Yes, this was default in Diablo 3 as well.

Never realized that, actual behavior that I had from D3 as well

[@BaneSIlvermoon]

This is required with certain skill combinations. Can interrupt your skill otherwise

[@Ludak021]

Exactly. And click past the mobs when you want to move. This is as difficult as solving 2+2.

[@Gee_Dub]

7:40 just assign force move to the mouse scroll wheel, as you spin the wheel past each click it registers an individual force move, so you can unlock the wheel and spin it like the wheel of fortune

[@danielmaryakhin3057]

I actually had the HUD on the left by default and moved it to the center. I find it way easier to keep track of my HP and cooldowns this way without having my eyes to bounce back and forth from the corner.

[@OwnModeGaming]

Awesome

[@0xreplikant]

Looking slightly down in the center also means less straining on the eyes than looking down in the left corner. It's in fact the natural resting position of the eyes.

[@red5standingby419]

One thing not mentioned for the high contrast cursor is that the circle just below that setting lets you choose a color for the cursor. So if bright white isn't good enough you can change the color to something else. I made mine like a light blue/cyan type color and I find that helps me keep track of where my cursor is when things get crazy on screen with all the ground effects.

[@OwnModeGaming]

I like that. I've been playing with the different colors just to see what I like over time. I'll try that next 🙂

[@the7thnumber]

I use a DualSense Edge and mapped interact to one of the back buttons so its a lot easier to pick items up without spamming attacks.

[@adamstevens3661]

I hope fixing these settings fixes my eye issues with d4. Im a console player. I can play all other games for hours. But d4 makes my vision blurry to where i cant even read affixs after awhile. I feel like maybe reading tiny text does it too. But maybe this will help

[@OwnModeGaming]

Hopefully it does, it did end up helping me a ton. If that doesn't there are computer glasses from Gunnar that I have used for the last few years that really help with eye strain, especially when I'm playing late at night.

[@messiahshow]

Try raise the sharpness of the game in video options, dlss need to be on for that function to work if not mistaken. Also calibrate your brightness, the game is so dark by default.

[@GetIrked]

The advanced tooltips suggestions were fantastic! I've been playing Diablo since Diablo 1 came out when I was a sophomore in college, and even I want the descriptions of the myriad of different skill modifiers of each of my items on by default! So many great tips and suggestions in this video. I'm a first-time viewer but I'm now a subscriber! Thanks!

[@OwnModeGaming]

Thank you so much and welcome!

[@MiguelSantos-yx1ft]

A great of reducing eye fatigue its to turn off vertical sync, only use this option if your monitor or gpu cant use more than 60 fps which in this case seing you're playing in 2K it makes vertical sync is causing tear in the visuals without you even realizing it

[@OwnModeGaming]

Awesome add!

[@reznovvazileski3193]

When you do the Windowed Fullscreen option, also scroll down in the tab and make sure to check Lock Cursor. This confines your cursor to the game window, and because you're windowed fullscreen Alt Tabbing will keep the game up on your main monitor while allowing you to penetrate the screen barrier to whatever you're doing on your side monitors. This way you can prevent from accidentally clicking on a bunch of furry pron while having an intense fight with Lillith. Or so my friend tells me could happen.

[@OwnModeGaming]

That is solid. I like the free flow. I’m always watching something on my second monitor and I like controlling it without leaving my gaming position. Saying that I have definitely flown off the screen at some of the worse times.

[@Soggy-In-Seattle]

The mouse key binding tip was exactly what I needed to know. I must fix mine.

[@OwnModeGaming]

So glad to hear it!

[@ShibastianEX]

Hiya!! After loving Diablo & POE for thousands hours of gametime, I think you should cover Dwarven Realms releasing at the end of September, even in its early acess it been a massive blast combining POE-like gearing system combined with Roguelike of Vampire Survivors + Action RPG feeling of BDO in 3rd person being able to animation cancel dashes etc! And the Devs keep pushing out significant updates, changes and fixes daily and the community on discord is really chill and helpful

[@OwnModeGaming]

Sounds fun!

[@wax99]

I didn't realize how many of these issues would get resolved by simply using a controller. I used it mostly to diminish my carpal tunnel but the gameplay feels more natural. Love it and can't see myself reverting to mouse and keyboard.

[@OwnModeGaming]

That's what my wife said, when she was editing, that he controller solved a lot of these problems ☺️. She plays on the controller even when playing on the PC.

[@wax99]

@OwnModeGaming my game experience really did get 1000% better, but I might still need to tweak some options because the attack action trumps the pick-up action, so whenever I want to pick something up but there's an enemy within line of sight, it will prioritize attacking the enemy. I'll try the first couple of tips, those look useful. Thanks brother.

[@Azrael1486]

​@@OwnModeGaming controller is where its at. I even use it for FPS games on PC. Mouse and keyboard are a little more accurate to use. But the fluidity and comfort of using a controller is unmatched

[@matthuck378]

I love playing these games M/KB...BUt I really should transition to controller because I don't want to wreck my wrists any more than I already have. I know I can adapt, too...As I played D3 on the PS3 and had no problems.

[@Ludak021]

How can it feel more natural when the game was developed for KBD+mouse? You are tripping.

[@camus1679]

I was interested to watch this and then you said “make you feel tired when you’re not” and I literally will play this when I have trouble sleeping or need to go to bed earlier than normal cuz as much as I enjoy the game it’s very easy for me to fall alseep in the chair controller/mouse in hand

[@OwnModeGaming]

Yeah, that definitely happens to me especially at season launch when I'm playing a lot more. I even use the gamer glasses when I play at night.

[@artte88]

Last non voluntary "nap" while gaming I was sitting with one foot under the thigh and 4h like that and the whole foot and ankle was totally numb. It took more than a week to get any feeling back and I can't tell you how many times I twisted/sprained it at first. Not recommended! Funny thing is that I ofc get the tip about sleeping in the bed is better and last year after someone gave that tip again I went to bed and I wake up the next day and my left hand was numb and unusable. The irony. 😂 Lucky it wasn't my dominant hand since that took 4 or 5 months to go back to normal, this with my foot is 3x faster tho. And did someone say that sleeping when on the toilet is awesome? It's not. :> What's also fun is that I have sever insomnia but some days I fall asleep sitting quite easily. I'd never drive during those. But if I'm not alone I never fall asleep like that. Oh well I hope you got some laugh from this at least, I've accepted and don't mind that it's just a part of what makes me being me. 😊

[@Chaawuu1]

​@@artte88Bro are you ok now lol

[@artte88]

​@@Chaawuu1 More or less. I mean it's less of an issue these days. Especially with everything else my body does wrong. ^^ Also I mean I can only compare vs myself so it's all I know and will be so after finding what works best it's only accepting it left, not 'only' as in easy ofc.

[@nian2304]

Play which ever you guys are comfortable with. Just like seeing some player still using Up, Down, Left and right keypad on keyboard to move. Play for fun leave the stress behind 😉

[@OwnModeGaming]

Absolutely! 🙂

[@TobiasSherman]

This is rediculously great advice. I wondered why my eyes were always so tired. Game looks much smoother as well.

[@OwnModeGaming]

Thank you. I'm so glad it helped!

[@CNMBTLJN]

Glad I watched this. I never thought of using asdf for skills instead of the numbers despite me knowing how to type. This will solve a lot of keyboard discomfort for me. Asdf feels so natural.

[@OwnModeGaming]

Yeah, it really helps! I sometimes to change it when jumping into a new game i'm just testing out and I get tired of that quickly and just take the time.

[@thegutlesswarrior9488]

@@CNMBTLJN I love using ASDF as my skill keys… it’s much more comfortable & I’ve been using for ages in D3; it was one of the first things I did on day 1 of D4 😁

[@CNMBTLJN]

So an update. I changed over to asdf and what a difference it makes. I moved health potion to r and dismount to g. So much easier now. I may move inventory to e because that feels natural compared to several other games I play that use e as inventory. Next up - direct neural connections so I can just think the command. lol.

[@johnathenmowery3539]

Me personally. I play with an Azeron Cyborg and have the WASD linked to analog so I have mouse aim and keyboard move so I can have advanced Mobility and aiming, this will become meta in POE2 where you are going to be able to move and cast at the same time.

[@OwnModeGaming]

I like it. Can't wait for POE2 it look so good.

[@ccgert]

You can click lock cursor so it will not leave your screen. If you need to go to your other screen you you can push ALT+Tab

[@OwnModeGaming]

That is true. I do like the free float so I can do things on my computer without leaving my gaming position.

[@quetzalcouatl]

Man, I'm always losing my cursor and I never thought to check the settings to make it stand out more.

[@OwnModeGaming]

It helps a ton.

[@Jholmesncc]

Not sure if you knew this but instead of changing basic skill to another key completely, keep it as all the same but hold shift down instead to stand in place and use your basic skill without moving. Shift plus left click is less strain then G and leaves your hand closer for your other skills with shift key holding

[@OwnModeGaming]

I have even used it for awhile. It's a solid setup!

[@gianpo]

How was mine already set to all those settings and the only one I have ever changed myself was to turn off screen shake

[@OwnModeGaming]

They changed a ton of settings when season 5 launched.

[@Ezelna03]

i just bought the game, should i choose season or eternal realm? and choose veteran II for new player is okay? that xp bonus seems good

[@OwnModeGaming]

I would do seasonal but focus mostly on your campaign and once that's completed you'll be able to jump into the seasonal stuff as you choose. After the season it will roll into your eternal realm and you can continue playing as you were.

[@paullochieng-bh6so]

the first thing I do with any new game installed is to go to options and set the graphics to 640x480 and lowest texture. I do maximize all volume settings ingame. The graphics may suck bcos of this but it does speedup my game.

[@OwnModeGaming]

That should speed it up.

[@matthuck378]

I'm left handed, and it feels weird to have the lower left corner blocked for me. HUD on top would be a great idea. The game 'field' is tilted slightly so there's more screen space/visibility above than below. We really should have 7 HUD options (top, bottom, each corner, and off/very minimal, ie: just health/resource numbers and conditions/stacks/cooldowns). I definitely have clicked on my HUD when trying to kill things, though. It's a minor issue, but still an issue.

[@OwnModeGaming]

I haven't really thought about the left handed thing, the right would be nice for that. In general,I would like to see more hud options. It seems like a small thing to add and I think it would be valuable to a lot of players.

[@mp8008008]

The whole problem you're describing with the "combine move/interact?basic skill" option can be avoided by using a keybind to move. Been using the spacebar to move since Diablo II after a friend recommended it, and I haven't changed it since, still very nice way to play

[@OwnModeGaming]

I like the space bar for move, I tend to like evade there, it's a big button to get me out of trouble 😄. I have also used it to hold in place when i'm using force move setup using another key to move.

[@OpenWorldAddict0]

I won't do some of these because i have most of my skills on mouse buttons because i like to sit back while i play games and not have my left hand hovering over my keyboard. It makes for better posture for me and reduces the chance of getting shoulder pain.

[@OwnModeGaming]

Awesome, do your thing, my friend! I love it.

[@j.a6778]

Talking about the cursor, changing the color of it helps me a lot, i get lost most of the time where my pointer is with heavy mobs, changed mine to lime green

[@OwnModeGaming]

Nice! That will be hard to miss

[@SiegeTF]

This reminds me; reflow CoD players - you can set Flashbangs to dark (they make the screen go dark).

[@OwnModeGaming]

That’s hilarious!

[@wykelized]

Set the mouse cursor color to yellow, the. You can leave it small so you can see more under the mouse, yet it's super easy to spot.

[@OwnModeGaming]

Nice, I like it.

[@Macaneta683]

I bind force move to scroll wheel and keep move/interact/skill to mb1. To force skill shift + mb1.

[@OwnModeGaming]

I never enjoyed the wheel movement, but a lot of people swear by it.

[@JesusWillSaveYou]

Unless I did this before and forgot which is very possible, when I went on the PC to do this, half of these were turned or switched off and the HUD was left corner by default. This could be because I played on console 1st which maybe had most of these off by default. The ADvanced tool tips being off by default is just stupid IMO. Really helpful when trying to choose between gear especially in the endgame when you are trying to maximize your gains. Thanks for the help.

[@OwnModeGaming]

That is weird, I forced everything to default before we did that video. I totally agree on the advance tip thing, it makes no sense not to have that on. Of course and thank you!

[@raine5503]

Thank you for the video.The Advanced Tooltip Compare doesnt work for me even when turned on. Tried multiple times, playing on PC, but doesnt show the comparison 🙁

[@OwnModeGaming]

There is a button that toggles on/off the compare, for me it's the shift key and I think that is the default key.

[@mrblitzer8705]

Found this video today and a huge thank you, I don't often have time to deep dive guides or tutorials. This was a perfect short and to the point guide!

[@OwnModeGaming]

You are so welcome!

[@artte88]

Take this as a contribution to the vid. Some of these are much simpler to change. Some weren't exactly correct. First what I wouldn't agree on. Hud/left. You move the health bar all the way to the edge and it's right next to the resource one. Seeing that info easier is more important for me on HC, especially with 27" monitor and not sitting way back. Not worth it to maybe see something that's still far enough away and it is only when it's from that angle it does anything so left/right/up doesn't get any pro of using it, also left side gets blocked somewhat instead of the bottom so with that I think you can get why I'm not on the same page. It's worse if you have a resource closer in color to health it's easy to mistake one or the other. For SC then I can see the it being used, esthetic only tho. Windowed vs Full. With a dual monitor setup having the slightly faster time getting the game back in focus is worth it to use Windowed and it makes it smoother going back and forth between game/browser. You can just lock cursor and it's like Full-screen mode. Also full can often get hidden if you switch to browser and that's not very good for HC. Can't recall if D4 does that atm tho. If you have a slow PC Full will help with performance a little bit. Then what can be done in a more simple way. Don't need to remove combined buttons. Just bind something like mouse button 5 for force move, no need to change anything from the regular bindings you'd use unless you use mb5 for something already then just choose another one. For the rest they are okay and some are basic stuff people miss so it's good to remind about them. 👍 Hope you don't mind some constructive critic. Much is personal preference, just not all. ❤

[@MrGeneralScar]

I use the largest cursor as a different colour that isnt likely to be on the screen. That way I can see it over the barrage of spell effects easier. I didnt know you can separate your skills though, I lost my stuff at the game and alt+F4'd it for the night about a week ago because I was at the end of a 110 Pit and for some reason I couldnt move, no matter what the game wanted to blow the skill I had on my left click even when not over a mob. I got killed twice on the end boss of the pit, on the 3rd death all of a sudden I couldnt even run back into the boss room, all it would do is blow my shout skill on my left click for my barb and even when it was on cooldown it still would just say cant do that its on cooldown. Now I know I can split them I will do so and hopefully not have that problem again.

[@OwnModeGaming]

I feel you for sure. When I got the mouse I have now I didn't know one of the buttons on the mouse would switch between mouse sensitivities and I kept hitting it on accident and the mouse would start flying off on to my second monitor. I would be clicking like crazy trying not to die until I realized I was moving windows around on the second monitor. It drove me crazy.

[@MrGeneralScar]

@@OwnModeGaming Yeah my issue was not with sensitivity. It did fly off the screen during a boss fight in a pit. But then i got it back on the screen and was working fine, then I got killed because when I tried click to move with my mouse about 3cm away from my barb, it blew the shoult skill on the left click. Then afterwards it still wouldnt move, it instead just said the skill was on cooldown. I then died, and it seemed to let me move but only after it used the skill. I died again. The after that it used the skill outside the boss room and I was stuck and couldnt move at all. The game would use the skill when it was off CD or just say the skill is on CD and cant be used yet. So its possible that was an issue where the mouse went off the screen when I was in combat the D4 got confused and stuffed up the click states of the cursor and bugged out. Or it could be something else. I lost patience at that point tho and closed the game and started binge watching youtube for a bit before bed. Game seemed to work fine the next day.

[@OwnModeGaming]

@@MrGeneralScar I know that wasn’t your issue. I was just sharing something that happened to me that your story reminded me of. Glad it’s working now.

[@HooverM75]

With the HUD placement, not sure if it is a PC default to have it centered, but on Console I actually had to change it from off to the side as the default over to center. With console though, I've found the center HUD is much better if you use larger TVs. You are not constantly glancing over to the corner, instead it is just in your view below your action. I can understand moving it on a monitor, but on a much larger TV....center HUD is not really in the way.

I'd like to know (if it's possible) is how to stop my screen from zooming in close while I'm in combat. I find it very frustrating when my view gets cut down and I can see the outer groups of enemy combatants. Then to have to take my finger off the action button and roll the mouse wheel to zoom out. 🤬

[@OwnModeGaming]

The only thing I can think of is to turn off the zoom on mouse scroll by unchecking the box in settings. I'm assuming you might be rolling it on accident and zooming in. Second, I would just double check that the far setting is on. Let me know if that helps, if not, telling me more about what's happening and we'll try to figure it out.

Movement on console version are awesome, but the range atacks are a crap to aim 😛 There's basically no way to aim properly Also, the HUD is at left side by default at console version 🙂

That is the rub for sure. I like sitting back with a controller from time to time and some builds need the aim. That is good to know about the console hud. I'm going to spend more time on the console before the next setting's video.

[@jedirayden]

@OwnModeGaming On console/presumably on PC with 'roller, you CAN target your skills onto a specific enemy. It's tricky and imprecise (might try shifting the button layout to more closely match D3, if possible) but if you can get the boss/elite/desired target health bar to be the one displayed at the top, you click the right stick in to "lock on". In D3, you simply did the same with the health bar and then held down L2/Left Trigger to lock on. In D4, this button is your evade. Hope this is useful, to the OP or for your next settings video!

To me the best way to move is use "Force move" and use the wheel up and down. Absolutely the best move method, imo.

[@OwnModeGaming]

Nice. It never grew on me, I tried for a while hoping it would stick but it didn't. That being said, I'm glad you like it.

[@JL-nb1yc]

That was pretty helpful. I had already applied about half of what you mentioned, but the other half was new. I am currently typing this on my second monitor, and I can now hear the background music!

[@OwnModeGaming]

Lol, awesome!

[@nicholasmutch1556]

awsome, honestly, i'm thankful that you've pointed these out, and I will go ahead and shut them off, what drives me nuts, is trying to hit Q , to heal potion, and hitting tab instead, especially when I NEED the heal.

You are so welcome

[@MrFalconos]

very good tips. please give us more tip. thanks

[@estephenmark]

What keys do you bind the actions displaced by putting all skills on W, A, S, D, F, G?

[@OwnModeGaming]

A bunch but I next will place all of my key menus just above the home row and place some additional keys below the home row as I figure out what I'm using the most. You can also check those in game, without losing your current by changing to key configuration 2 and look at what those keys are set to.

One i like is you can put your resource bar over your head.

Yes please for the key binding video, I'm usually playing in console but right now trying to figure out the pc for being able to game while son hogs the TV 😂

Awesome, it is in the works. We have a couple videos before it and it will be right after those.

[@sebastianvm9938]

I been playing with awsd to move, I dont mind to bind a few keys as I used to play wow with tons of macros hha, I didn't enjoy moving clicking in diablo2, I remember when I played Lineage 2 then I quit few weeks later just for that aspect. I'll follow your tips, thanks 😊

One more, match your background fps to normal fps so you avoid stuttering when alt tabbing/multi monitor setups.

I like that.

How to stand still as a barbarian to activate inner calm in controller does anyone know?

[@OwnModeGaming]

I'll see what I can find tomorrow, if no one else replies. I would check the button binds and see if you can map one to hold in place, but that is a total guess 🙂

[@igormasterchief3018]

@@OwnModeGaming ok thanks

[@OwnModeGaming]

It was bothering me, so I got up to check it and there is no button bind to hold in place. I jumped in game and tried to use the second joystick to aim while I stopped touching the move joystick, but it didn't do anything. So you can stay in place by not moving the joystick but you have no way to aim. That kind of sucks.

I'm surprised you didn't talk about scroll mouse wheel to move, by far my favorite way to play diablo

[@OwnModeGaming]

I have used it a lot but I don't like the feel over time. I thought I would get used to it and never did. I will definitely include it in a longer settings video because so many people do like it.

[@Twisted0614]

@@OwnModeGaming if you use a mouse like the Logitech g502 that lets you unlock the wheel to spin freely you can just give it a good spin and auto run while using your skills, really nice.

[@OwnModeGaming]

@@Twisted0614 my mouse does the free roll, I still didn't like it.

that's the dumbest PoE trend that stuck. It has zero advantages and bunch of disadvantages, such as, extra button to click on vendors, chests etc...

if u want to move and not fire your skill set up force move and use it to move also the combat hit flash is good for tping with map up u can see the flash will save you from getting gibd lol

[@OwnModeGaming]

That is a good setup. I still don't like the combat flash, but I definitely understand it's appeal.

[@superman37876]

Using dolby atmos for headset, what sound option would you recommend? Keep it at stereo or change to 5.1 or 7.1?

[@OwnModeGaming]

I liked it more with the 7.1. Ultimately, I would test both and pick what you like the most. Some gamers find the surround sound distracting and others love the more immersive. For me it also will change based on the game and genre.

[@superman37876]

@@OwnModeGaming Thanks! I'm using the SteelSeries GameDac so didn't know if the 5.1 or 7.1 would be worse or better. Just trying to get the best sound out of this game. :-)

[@OwnModeGaming]

@@superman37876 I think for most setups you aren't going to see a difference between the 7.1 or 5.1. I think either would give you great audio and any difference would be hard to even notice for most people.

Iam not sure, but i think in the new season they are adding a way to filter damage numbers. I think i did that in the ptr. Anyone can confirm this?

[@OwnModeGaming]

I did see that. I didn't mess with it during the PTR but it's a nice add.
