I let myself get caught up in my Diablo nostalgia and bought D4. I trudged through the campaign but I just can’t get into the endgame at all. Yet I jump into Diablo 3 again and have a blast. And they’re still doing balance changes and even adding new features in this update.
Diablo 4 just feels so much like early Diablo 3. Loot isn’t rewarding, it feels like you’re wasting your time with a lot of the grinding, etc… I had hoped Blizzard would have learned since they really improved D3 over the years, yet it seems to repeat so many of the same mistakes.
D4, I bought it, I regret it. 60 hours and some change, did a lot of side quests so I didn’t finish the campaign yet, level upper 60s and the game has become so boring. I just can’t bring myself to complete it. It’s tedious. Everything feels trivial.
Armoured core 6 on the other hand… I keep on grinding one specific mission for credits so I can unlock the better gear to slap that next level boss into the ground. It just does not grow old.
It’s a magnificently composition of explosive destruction. Every time you launch a missile, shoot a laser or spin up a minigun is just sheer… Exhilaration. . It’s my favourite Guilty pleasure. It has learned from all the errors of mechwarrior 5 and elden ring.
Liniar but repayable missions mixed with Elden ring type level bosses. So the game very much give you the chance to “git gut”.
Genius.
Can’t play Diablo while I’m on the toilet. I can comment on Lemmy.
Can’t play Diablo in small time increments like 5 minutes or so waiting on something. I can comment on Lemmy.
I get the idea that having time is a choice, bc it’s what we choose to spend it on, but your comparison isn’t really valid.
