the developers of diablo4 are completely out of touch with what made diablo 1 and 2 good.
this is closer to a mobile game than a aaa platform,
save your money this game isnt worth it even if you can get it for free.
i bought it with the vessel of hatred expansion on sale and i still feel ripped off..
The lilith fight is a prime example of how bad a game can be if the ones creating it dont have a clue what makes it good. avoid little white orbs then get to a spot to avoid fire to get to a spot to avoid more fire to get to a spot to end the fight with lilith even though she doesnt have health left.. trying to make a game for shareholders who dont care about anything but profit instead of the people who will be playing the game.. they dont care about what makes a game good they only care about how to make quick money.. just get it done so it can get to market .. ill sum it up,. they just remade diablo 3 with a stationary map and the same bad gameplay..Diablo4 is a loot hunter that doesnt have any loot worth hunting...i dont get the reason to play it at all..there is nothing to achieve... no loot worth replaying for, and limited character builds..its baffling how they think this is an acceptable game
i will never buy another blizzard game until they fire everyone who has worked on diablo 3 and 4, and im not even sure that will help.
Vessel of Hatred has no new creative aspects to it...just as pointless to play as the normal version.
Key tip**** if a game forces you to make a new character every couple months then it more often than not is a horribly bad game...
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED ...AVOID THIS GAME AND ALL BLIZZARD GAMES TILL THEY CLEAN HOUSE AND GET FRESH IDEAS ... at the very least avoid them until they stop making mobile games and calling them aaa

It is what it is. You go out kill things, get loot, don't die. Especially in hardcore

Session 6 review:

For those who are not interested in endgame.(Base game)
Pros:
- Campaign and Side quests
- Beautiful open world
- 6 classes with unique mechanics which means more replayability
- Customizable character creator
- A lot of early game ways how to improve your gear
- 4 Mercenaries (Rogue, Handless warrior, Cannibal woman and problematic deamon kid) each with its own
skill tree
- Meaningful collectables

Cons:
- Mounts. Whats the point of creating beautiful open world when you can speedrun it on mount? Money,
they need to milk whales somehow and mounts/armor is the most profitable way.
- Riding on mount is so bugged, you will always end up to be stucked in textures
- Mobile classes (e.g Shred Druid who is jumping from one enemy to another) will sometimes gets stucked in
textures

I can recommend game to anyone who want to experience good campaign and story.

For those who like slot machines and looking for full time job.(Endgame)
Pros:
- Lot of endgame content

Cons:
- Some endgame content is not as rewarding as other.
- Spiritborn class is so op that there is no point in going into endgame with other class than this one.
- PVP zones: Noone gives a ♥♥♥♥ about pvp in this game because classes are so unbalanced.
- Item Masterworking: Why cant i reset just last masterworking rank but all of them ?
- Item tempering: You have just 8 rerolls for tempering and scroll which can reset those rolls on item just
once so if your RNG God say NO! your best in slot item is ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up.
- Pits are inferior to Greater Rifts from D3, there are only 2 levels and if you miss some monsters you have to
return one level back.

After reaching paragon level 250/300 In endgame, i cant recommend you to go above 4th reward from session. Its not worth your time.

Final thoughts (The reason for negative review):
Game is live service as we get used to from Blizzard to develop every game this way, therefore you will experience lags on weekend. Game contains lot of liveservice ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and predatory monetisation like session passes, skins and mounts, everything what casual whale needs. Blizzard made MMO from this game, trade chat is spammed by Pit booster, game emphasize and rewarding more playing in parties than solo. For me nail to the coffin was Dark citadel which is "Party only" endgame event.

PS: Armor/weapon/jewelery vendors are the most useless npcs in game. There is no use case where your rather sell your gear instead of salvaging it.
