Diablo IV Cross-Gen Bundle Edition - XBOX Series X, XBOX One

First of all, while i understand some people are upset about not getting it on release day, the truth is that as usual, a huge company like Blizzard can’t even make sure the game works on day one or two anyway. So even if you did get it on release day you’d be spending your time patching and sitting in a queue, not playing. I received my preorder the day after release. When I tried to play it last night I had a 56gb patch to download. That’s my mistake for buying on Xbox. My PS5 would’ve autopatched the game before first launch. I played the beta so I know there is a decent game in here. I played last night to the point I had made it to in the beta, about level 5. I started to play today and then I had to bring my dogs outside. I came back in after 5 min to find I’ve been logged out. When I tried to log back in it says my wait time is 983 minutes. That’s over 16 hours. I knew I would hate the always online thing but I was stupid and bought the game anyway. I hate not being able to pause a game. Sometimes you have to deal with life, you know? And there are some that will say “portal to town!” There is a big difference between saying “yes dear I’ll be right there.” <hits pause> and “yes dear I’ll be right there as soon as I kill all these mobs near me and I can hopefully get to a spot where nothing agros on me so I can portal to town, so probably like 15 minutes.” That’s how you get divorced. I’ve uninstalled the game. I wish I could get a refund. I wish I hadn’t been suckered into buying this. I’m just gonna go play Diablo 3. It works. I can play by myself. I don’t have to wait in a queue. And I can pause the game.

Super fun gameplay with an entralling story and battlepass. The cut scene cinematics are A++ and the gameplay is fun. Battle pass and seasonal content is nice. Can be played couch coop, which is super nice when most games are eliminating the option. The only downside is it *has* to be played online.

An incredibly addictive game, mind blowing graphics, great storyline, and amazing abilities for all the respective character classes. Easy money spent and definitely worth the money.

Been a diablo fan since 2000 and ive played every single game. Im glad i got it the next day it was released, although i feel bad for people who pre-ordered it and got it a week later (which doesn't make sense). I hope bestbuy will improve their pre-order system

Less enthralling gameplay than Diablo 3, but the updated graphics and cutscenes are a welcome feature for this title. I kind of lost interest with my current pay through but I think primarily due to my class and build. Will gladly pick it up again in the near future
