>David Brevik, designer on Diablo 1, was one of the people to chip in and offer their opinion on Diablo 4, doing so in a positive key. >"Overall, I think that Diablo 4 looks good", he said. He then went on to point out how Blizzard looks towards the grittier Diablo 2 when it comes to the upcoming ARPG's graphics, calling the gothic-inspired artstyle "cool". >Another point Brevik brought up was how Diablo 4 marks a return to skill trees, which were absent from Diablo 3. He then concluded with saying that "Overall, it seems like something that I would design."
I’d rather the devs just make Common, Magic, and Rare items more competitive for gear slots.
Atk/Def being removed or replaced with Str/Dex/Int/Vit doesn’t actually change that.
There’s also no reason not to keep Str/Dex/Int/Vit stats over Atk/Def if those stats don’t contribute to meaningful gameplay. So on that front, unless traditional stats are going to have synergy with other systems and actually contribute to meaningful character building – I’m fine without them.

Brevik is cool and all, but I don't really care about his opinion on this trash. It still looks bad.
Liam White
Diablo 1 gameplay isnt very good honestly, the game gets carried by the art and atmosphere, and the series gets carried by later titles
Adam Gonzalez
its either dead on arrival or goat it all depends on Path of Exile 2 actually being able to deliver a better experience than the shit show the game is right now
Anthony Jackson
Just gonna make it obvious you're new huh?
Chase Ramirez
Imagine how bad it should be if the core person who should be pushing this garbage says it's "good". "Good" is not enough from multibillion corporation which takes 10 years to make a game.
Remember when Blizzard actually meant quality and best games on the market? Yeah, me neither.
Art isn't the problem. It's about boring ass systems of pretty much everything
Parker Clark
fucking no you retard
Jose Allen
Any time I think this place can't get any worse I see these reddit type "omg get hype bros!" threads for some pozzed garbage series from some triple A dev who hasn't made a good game for at least 10 years. Yeah dude Blizzard only sold out to Chinks, fucked every project and game up in recent history but I guess you're right THIS time it's going to be different.
I fucking hate zoomers.
Colton Allen
PoE a shit too, this comes from somebody almost done with delirium wings
Josiah Phillips
like ten years ago get hyped/im hyped threads were the norm. Then you fucks showed up.
Jose Cox
Well, you can't have highs without your lows, like Shinji "Dino Crisis 3'' Mikami
Nathaniel Powell
this
Isaac Williams
Hey that's misinfo, that's a game by RE3 director and he didn't recover since.
Isaiah Ortiz
PoE a good fuck you
Connor Long
>d4's current state is so bad, that they had to exhume actual ex-blizztard staff to tell the fans that its "good" WEW LAD
No game's perfect but poe has been living every other arpg ever made in the dirt since 2012.
Blake Campbell
He shouldn't cuck to them after what Jay Wilson and those facebook faggots did.
Ryan Diaz
You clearly have no idea who David "fuck that guy" Brevik is.
He's right to say it looks better and closer to the Diablo franchise than D3 but one quick look at the inventory and a closer look at the textures shows it's just built upon the D3 engine. It might be a decent solo experience but poe 2 will shit on it.
Noah Barnes
>You clearly have no idea who David "fuck that guy" Brevik is. That's not the point here, nigger.
Matthew Williams
They could interview the emperor himself for all I care, the game still looks like shit and Blizzard has a terrible track record
Colton Anderson
It is, you're just clueless lol.
Carter Davis
>last year >wanting to play Diablo 2 for the first time again since the beginning >look up all the games that came since that put themselves forward as "like Diablo 2" and they're all fucking gimmicks >just reinstall Diablo 2
Diablo 2 and some of it's mods perfectly refined the formula but companies keep adding shit and fucking it up. Also, NONE of these cunts could do a dark gothic setting, delete all cues you have ever taken from World Of Warcraft.
As much as I'd like to believe that, I have no reason to believe he isn't on the payroll, and thus incentivized to say that shit. I'm just not interested. I lost interest in d3 after they removed the auction house either. Bad, sure, but at least I could profit off it. Remove that and what was left, mediocre arpg.
Christian Mitchell
fuck that loser
Easton Ward
>perfectly refined the formula D2 is far from perfect. Actually it's full of terrible flaws. It simply was the precursor of the genre. I agree with your dark gothic statement though.
Nathaniel Miller
>thread about diablo >poe fags always bring up their game Absolutely fucking no one gives a flying fucking shit about your dead BR infested chink spybot p2w one ability passive button mashing failure of a game
Go fuck a sheep you retarded fucking kiwis
Ryan Taylor
I wouldn't expect much. So far gearing and skill "trees" look primitive and boring. Let alone fucking runewords with JUST TWO runes. I think they prioritize the art style and "muh embrace dorkness" too much and miss the whole point. D3 wasn't bad because it looked cartoonish and vibrant. It was bad because there's no meaningful choices in building a character. Everything looks and plays the same pretty much, and if you don't like the build then.. what, what's a build? Lol just swap the skills and get that sick loot lmao
Landon Robinson
>pretends to shit about PoE >proceeds to perfectly sum up the entire Diablo series
