Warlock, demon magic/summoning class of some sort.

It doesn't look like a warlock. Looks like some dime store super hero. 🤨


Well, hopefully it plays fun. Cosmetics can always fix how it looks...

The Paladin looks so skinny compared to him even tho he's a spellcaster I assume lol.
Especially considering the Paladin is wearing armor.

I'm not really a big fan of them either. I also don't like how emphasized they are in a non-F2P game that you pay for upfront.

A game that costs money should have in-game achievable loot that looks awesome too, not just MTX.
 
The battle passes are brutal from a cost perspective as well, on top of that the paid costumes are more interesting than the battle pass content you can only get with the premium currency.
 
Anyone think that they will release the new class this season? Like an early access beta test so that he is more balanced for the expac season? Because otherwise, S12 is looking like a dud.
 
Light and dark classes is a cool concept for the expansion. Let's see the execution on the Warlock, from the image it seems it'll be able to create shadow demon parts.

I agree with regards to most of the paid cosmetics. I haven't bought a single one yet because I haven't liked a single one enough to buy it.

I was more talking about the free in game transmogrify cosmetics allowing us to make whatever that class is look decent. 😂
 
I was thinking Death Knight to be the alt to Paladin, but I'll take Blood Mage or whatever this is called.

Tune-in to the Diablo 30th Anniversary Spotlight

Join us at 2 p.m., February 11th to behold the next class coming to Diablo IV.
news.blizzard.com news.blizzard.com

Prepare to witness the next chapter of Diablo IV. On February 11th, tune in to our Diablo 30th Anniversary Spotlight where we'll unveil the next class arriving with Lord of Hatred, a new force in Sanctuary that will reshape how you fight, survive and master the battlefield. We'll also dive deeper into major updates to skill trees and new endgame systems that were first revealed in December.
 
Wow, I just to realized this year being the 30th anniversary for 2 of my favorite franchise Diablo and Resident Evil also means getting somewhat older :messenger_grinning_sweat:
Anyway hoping there will be some fun stuff and a great year for both!

I actually enjoyed D3 a lot, I get it was a disappointment after D2 ( so was D4 imo? ) but it's not really a bad game at all especially down the line after updates and the expansion.
I enjoyed it more than D4 honestly, D4 just leaned too hard into being a pseudo-MMO and I am not a fan of the open world.
Not a bad game by any means but I enjoyed my time with 3 more.

Characters in D4 look really wonky to me too, and it'd be cool to get a playable woman too who who isn't obese, the Barbarian or skinny/ skinny with a toned texture plastered over them.
For all this talk about body diversity women with curves are treated as if they don't exist.
It's really weird too how the hair and eyebrows looks, it doesn't look like real hair and is oddly thin and like it's glued on pubes or something.

I am not a fan of the vfx either spells feel and look very weak compared to D3 they're so puny especially on Sorc.
Even the D2 remaster did it better, like look at chain lightning lmao it looks so much better in 3 and 2.

D3 is my favorite of the series easily, it isn't perfect (none of them are) and I think they should pull in some of the supporting characters from D3 into 4 like they have done with some of the cast from D2 (NPC's not the prime evils).

I still play D3 on my switch when I travel. I have dumped thousands of hours into the games, and while I was disappointed with ver 1.0 release (esp after spending so much time enjoying the alpha and beta tests) of D3 I think it matured extremely well. Hell, half of the stuff that keeps me playing the seasons in D4 has been added from D3.

D3 I played for a few years, D4 I played through once then grinded for a few days and lost interest that about summarizes it lol.
I did go back a while more recently and leveled a few more characters and played for a while but it never really hooked me.

I know I'm alone, but I'm a D1 lover. I want a Resurrection treatment on the OG. Would be an awesome surprise for the anniversary.

I actually replayed D1 not long ago and I still enjoyed it.
Not something I'd grind in but replaying it every now and again is pretty nostalgic and still fun.

I still play off and on but I do it with mods. The Hell 3 and the mod on GoG launcher, can't remember the name right now.
 
Hesitantly hoping for some decent stuff for D2. Not sure I have confidence in modern day blizz to pull anything off but we'll see.
 
I spent the last month finishing up season 11 using the paladin pre-order and didn't play any of the POE2 druid update. Dipped into that last night and the enjoyment if day and night different from D4 currently.

Not trying to derail the discussion, I was just shocked at how great the POE implementation of the druid felt compared to what we had in D2 and have in D4. The disparity in quality makes it feel like blizzard is the 15 year old "new to the genera" developer, not the other way around.

I did basically the same. I am giving PoE2 some time because I am not a fan of doing the campaign over and over. As for Diablo... I will always come back to it for a week or two at least. I can't avoid it.

My personal opinion is that the PoE2 Druid is light years ahead of the D4 version. The sheer variety and customization you can do is wild. It seems like a natural evolution of the Diablo 2 Druid. I spent way too many hours just playing around with all the toys.

PoE2 and especially No Rest for the Wicked are how I hope all games in the genre play like going forward.

As far as the update in a few hours. I am still pumped. Diablo 1 Resurrected please.

Yeah, it's so well executed and the skills feel SO DAMN good, I didn't expect it to be AS polished as it is for the first releases...but GGG has been cooking with POE2.

I will always be a Diablo fan and I can appreciate their pedigree and love all the games in the series for their own merits, most of my bitterness comes down to "member berries" for what was :).

my beef with PoE is that it doesn't allow me to re-link my PS account and I have to double dip everything I buy. The game is amazing, though, as is Last Epoch.
I am planning on buying No Rest for the Wicked next promo.
