@@Contractor48 I'm not saying the narrative is good, I'm saying it's not the main issue, D4 doesn't need strong narrative as much as it needs strong gameplay, being a looter game rather then single player rpg.

@@DenethorDurrandir you have a point. D3 didn't have a narrative but was so fun to play. But if I take POE, I replayed the heck out of it in the beginning because of the story. Same with d2. The storyline does have a good impact on replayability but it is not mandatory.

I got 33% through the video. I've just realized that I'm indifferent about Activision/Blizzard titles. I just don't care anymore; not even about news surrounding it. Too many times they have burned bridges. I evaluate titles on the following criteria: Total cost (money and time) of quality escapism and intrinsic engagement. Activision/Blizzard ranks horribly in that light. Heck, it might be more fun to go on a date with my neighbors trusty love-sock.

9:18 where did you get the idea they have removed the Helltide Chests? They haven't said that anywhere, the patch notes say "Baneful Hearts can primarily be earned through opening Tortured Gift chests " and their latest video even shows someone opening one. In fact they are probably more important than ever - "As you battle through Helltides, you will generate Threat - how much will be determined by the difficulty of monster and how often you’re securing Tortured Gifts within Helltide". But they did reduce the channel time to open them.

If there's anything I've learned from the last few years of gaming news, it's that AAA studios like Activision-Blizzard are not to be trusted, and live service games are not to be trusted. I don't care what they do to fix Diablo IV at this point, I still wouldn't play it even if you gave it to me. It's a good thing we still have Diablo II. 24 years later and it's still the best game they ever made.

This is what I am talking about..... We buy a game, the game is trash, then we have to buy the fix in the form of an "expansion". This is almost the exact same process that D3 went through. All I know is that D2 STILL rocks, has mods and support. Maybe D4 should take a look at the D2 mods for ideas for D4, since Bliz-Turd cant seem to come up with an original thought.

Also people going "THE TITLE IS CLICKBAIT" No it's not. Diablo 4's old direction is "we do the bare minimum listening to feedback an you will buy our shit." And now that D4 seriously struggled last season, they're actually making loot better. So yes, their old direction of not fucking paying attention was given up. Cope harder for the poor multi-billion dollar corpo. Oh, and that their strategy now is literally just D3 expansion strats. It's not even D4 style anymore.
