It's not a journalist game so I expect something in the mid 80s. Diablo 2 also had mid to high 80s when it came out.

No, if that were the case it wouldn’t be available for rent from GameFly

You should watch the developer update from a while ago. Already confirmed that there’s an in-game shop and a battle pass.

Seems legit since it has cross progression. But ofc it depends on the pc.

Preordered the Friday edition. Loved the beta and know I’ll have a good time for the hundred hours. That shop and battle pass is going to put me right off though. I imagine it will look just like Warzone. Every time you boot up the game, splash screens for the most retarded looking gear ever.
I really fucking hope that they don’t money hat legendaries and other gear. That’ll be the final straw for me.

Thats for the review. Then you can play the game on June 1st on Thursday if you have the version that gives you early access. June 6th is the regular release.

Yeah, that's what I'm not understanding. Do console users just make a free battle.net account and whatever Blizzard game disc they happen to have they can play regardless of where or how they got it? Nothing gets registered or tied to the account?
I do not play multi-player games on console. I genuinely do not know how stuff like this works for ya'll.

I'm not certain how that works. I generally just play the single player.

You have to link your battle net account to your console account, then all the progression is just saved on your battle net account

I don't care. I've had the ultimate edition preordered for a while now. The beta was fun and I know that's like not even a quarter of the tutorial story campaign but I have a good feeling and can't wait to jump in and experience the full game. My life is over as soon as early access comes out this Friday!

First game in a while where I don't care about the review score. Played all the betas and had a blast. Can't wait to start collecting alters, building my character, and absorbing the story.
Just like every diablo game before it, it will improve dramatically over time. Regardless, I predict critics give it an 85.

Drop the console war persecution complex.
It's not a Sony or Nintendo game so no shilling. 70-80 is my guess.

Played 20h of beta, im longterm diablo and hack&slash genre fanatic, realistically i think game gonna get 80-90% and i voted for that but ofc if i voted with my heart, and if endgame is solid i would hope for 90-95% score.
I might be bit biased coz for example d2r which only got this https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/diablo-ii-resurrected and lol userscore- dunno even who would reviewbomb it, but i played well over 1500 hours including online, offline and mods, and to me since no game is 10/10 lets just give it 9,5/10
TLDR d4 to me is nowhere near as legendary as d1/d2, but has potential to be better from d3, but i only played measily 20h so cant give proper score yet
VS ur usual AAA game im sure it is at least good/very good game worst case scenario, if some1 likes the genre ofc- here i hope for some sanity and sites not giving game to dildo reviewers, man can dream

The reality is that if you weren't butthurt then you wouldn't have made that comment at all.

Yeah, this seems much better than Diablo 3 and it seems people are forgetting how well that reviewed and how many copies have been sold.
Diablo 3 got an 88 MC score and has sold 30m+ copies which puts it about the same as Skyrim and Breath of the Wild
I think D4 is going to be in the 90s. it might lose some points depending on how aggressive the MTX/battlepass situation is.

Can't be any fucking worse than D3. I hated that story campaign. Going from the beta what we saw of the story campaign it will be a million times more interesting.

The problem is, most ppl who played D2 at the time it came out have a very different view on it. At the time it was all pretty new, and there were not many games around like it. Those people have serious nostalgia for it, which blinds a lot of people. I played hundreds of hours of Goldeneye on N64, but playing the recent re-release was only cool for reliving those gaming memories, its been done much better since but no shooter rivals that feeling I had playing it on release on the 64.
I never played D2 back when it came out, I started with D3 which I played for 600 hours plus and loved every second. I bought D2R on release and really didnt like it. A lot of the systems are archaic at this point, and it felt like a chore I gave up and uninstalled it around act 4. If I was to review it, I wouldnt give it above 70. Thats just my take but I can def see why it reviewed poorly.

Sorry, I meant to say I think its gonna be a game that is worth 90+ but will score an average of 85 from reviewers.
