Should you buy Baldurs Gate 3 or Diablo 4?

Things Diablo 4 does better:
  • Microtransactions
  • Live service
  • Always online
  • Battle Passes
  • $20 horse cosmetics
  • Battle pass not giving enough currency for shop items or next battle pass
Things Baldurs Gate 3 does better:
  • Patches don't nerf classes and items that ruins everyones build
  • Doesn't have malicious UI design that makes it extremely easy to accidentally purchase battlepass
  • Doesn't struggle to give you item storage space due to "engine limitiations"
  • Full story with an ending that isn't behind paid DLC
  • Doesn't take advantage of players by using predatory monetisation
  • (Bonus!) Studio didn't harass their employees to a point where someone takes their life
  • (Bonus!) CEO didn't threaten to have their former assistant killed

Insipid. Wreathed in sloth. Fur matted, until they pitifully bleat for their shearers to saunter over and trim their woolly hide. This is what Blizzard has become. Weak, groveling lambs, who have abandoned their fleeces, in pursuit of a mirage. A sinister illusion, designed to lead them astray and have them inevitably plummet from the precipice into the abyss. Stripped of former glory, domesticated, coddled, yet once they were robust. Herculean wolves in their own might, such as I. In the days of yore, their claws were sharpened, honed at the whetstone, their bared fangs dripped with saliva, ready to tear prey apart, and their manes bristled at the sight of a foe. Verily, they were once formidable, filling all around them with dread. Yet now they are lauded and mocked, jeered at by those who would once be quashed in a single blow. It is dreadful to espy what has occurred to this once austere company, but alas, if they wish to become a cub, then let them be so. Those who believe themselves virtuous, because they have no fury in them will rue the day when the wolf hunts and gnaws upon the lamb.

This game could be very fun, if the developers were not trying their best to make sure it is NOT! The first 2 hours of the game went like this: I played the prologue, I got to the town, the game marked a quest for me called welcome back booster as an "introduction quest", I got it, the next thing, I got a message "You have now completed the main campaign!" and then I got to level 50 and had bunch of legendary crap. So, fun game. Then, I created a new character, cause you know, I had paid money, I wanted to play this game. I finished the prologue, I got some level ups, but I realized I'm kinda super OP compared to my friend who had not gotten the welcome back booster. Then I checked, and apparently you keep a lot of level ups and discovered items on ur second character as well, cause you know, you finished the campaign in 30 minutes, you deserve it! After that I made a whole new battlenet account and did my best to avoid the welcome back booster. But this game REALLLLLY wants you to get that that, probably cause they want you to go ahead and buy the DLC cause the main game will be useless after you get this. So now I am 12 hours into the game, and 7 hours of it has been spent UNTRACKING welcome back booster, why? because the freaking game keeps marking this STUPID quest for you. So you are playing the game, have a quest far away, you are using the map to find you path, then wait a second, the welcome back booster has been tracked. Now you are in middle of 50 beasts with no idea where the f*&k to go! And it is not just the welcome back booster, the game constantly gives you ways to get OP and suck all the fun out of the game . Even the current event they have keep giving you "gambling" gems which give you items that can literally kill bosses in one hit. The game has completely forgotten that it has a main F*CKING campaign and has put EVERYTHING on to the DLC, they just want you to get directly into that. The event gives you items that you can only use if you have level 60, which with 12 hours can only be happening if you have the welcome back booster and some play time on top of it. So yeah, if the game would stop with this nonsense and let newcomers enjoy the main campaign as it should be instead of pushing you towards trying the new DLC story, it could be nice, but I honestly would not recommend this game. I still am going to finish the main game cause, well I have paid , but I highly recommend avoid this mental torture of a bad terrible horrible seriously stupid game design .

Pay the trolls no mind, Diablo 4 is one of the greatest ARPGs ever. Not having to use Battle.Net anymore is a huge W.

TLDR Season 5: Has a memory leak, going up to 6gigs of ram, and locks up within 1 minute, requiring an end process tree in task manager to exit. I cannot recommend this game. Season 4 was amazing, 5 is a dumpster fire. Legacy Review Pre-Season 4: Diablo 4 didn't respect my time so I'll keep this short and sum up the main points to decide if this is the game for you: I got 100% in the game. This is truly a bells and whistles mobile game with as bare game play as is required to reel consumers in. Events are just color changes for enemies/regions, everything else is 100% identical. Aside from the end-game boss loot targeting, there still isn't anything else as mentioned. - Fun, basic gameplay, with a boring gameplay loop that lacks dopamine hits. *Each class has 4 builds which can be mix and matched. *Sacred Ancestral Unique gear only matches some builds. *Corpses have a small max limit for 2023, damaging two specific builds. *Forgetful, throwaway music, but is good nonetheless and gets the job 'done.' *Gameplay feels over a decade behind the times, lacks innovation. *Inscribing items is the exact same function as the Horadric Cube. *Enchanting items is 5 steps backwards in this game. You can't see what you can change on the affix until you've spent your material and you can't refund them if you choose no affix. *All Armor Sets (Green) were removed and sold in the Shop (with no bonus). *All cool armor & weapon effects from epic sets in past games or even Path of Exile, $. Not a single one for free. Not one. *Archon, Boneweave, and Sovereign armor sets are 99% identical, most sets look pretty similar as well to goad you into the shop. *Game freezes on occasion when loading near other players (when streaming them in). - Feels like the game was made by people who don't play video games. *Always something to do, but always lacking dopamine hits, i.e., the loot is only ever incrementally good except when first accessing a new world difficulty tier. *Altars of Lilith can be completely ignored unless min/maxing as the upgrades give mathematical negative returns almost immediately, regardless of the level scaling. *Mining Ores and doing Herbalism (you just click the deposit/herb, then pick up the item) is required to upgrade Gear and Potions, respectively. *PvP is both Optional (open mouse wheel -> scroll right -> apply Blood Mark) even in the 2 PvP areas and broken due to a flat '92% damage reduction buff,' which means if you did 5,000 damage now you do 400 (8 x 5000) / 100 , so you still kill someone in 1-3 seconds depending on your class and theirs. *PvP marked for blood (enables pvp) can glitch out, preventing you from attacking others but enabling them to attack you (when the glitch occurs, you will not have the particle effect so you won't even know). When glitched you must logout to remove the mark. *PvP is markedly unfinished and poorly thought out, you can reduce pvp damage further by 30% for 20 seconds, but this requires cutting your screen in half with your inventory, then clicking on a tiny box (all mid-battle most likely), then right clicking on a scroll. *PvP is unbalanced for every class and every build, each fight lasting a second, maybe two. *I enjoyed the 'Open World' aspect. From a 3D Designer point of view, it isn't really open world, they simply took 5 Acts of areas and stitched them together, removing the loading screen and mostly hand-crafting the over-world. When taken in this way, the world map isn't really that big, and we loved this, even if it creates a lack of cohesion for the player from a world building perspective (i.e., you can cross Estuar in minutes). *Minus copy paste 'special' bosses to climb the season chapters (which I didn't finish), you have Helltides (Tier 3/4) for targeting loot, Obols (all tiers/from events) for targeting loot, and Nightmare Dungeons (Tier 3/4) for upgrading Paragon board sigils (same function as upgrading gems at the end of a D3 Greater Rift). *Season and in-game content builds on Diablo Immortal, for better or worse, i.e., to complete the Season 2 content, you have to climb to Tier 3 at the least. *The loot you get is the same everywhere, nothing has a specific loot table, minus first time kill rewards, for example, Echo of Lilith. *Tired, boring, cliched, copy-paste story line, trying to be something it's not. Loved Lilith, hated the plot existing to move me from A to B. *Hitting enemies lacks responsive feedback, they just jitter slightly, flash white/silver, or fight right through it. *Sounds of hitting enemies with the physical weapons is lackluster. *Boring, copy paste Affixes for gear. *Great side quests; Horrible voice acting outside the Main Quest. Shameful, especially horrendous as I played Baldur's Gate 3 for 181 hours before this game so it stuck out like a sore thumb. - Store front with skins priced at $38.41 CAD after tax for 1 cosmetic armor set. *Horse armor selling for $23.14 after tax, and WE ALL complained about Bethesda, hah! *Prices normalized by American Companies & Consumers, pressured and forced onto everyone else due to how the global currency exchange works and has functioned for generations; some companies eat this exchange to increase spending in lower GDP countries, see Fatshark with Warhammer 40,000: Darktide, which eats roughly 56% of the conversion rate for the consumer, and this is but one alternative method of targeted pricing as there are many profitable ways to go about this. *No 'Statistics' based research has been used (mathematically even if less than 0.1% buy macrotransactions from Diablo 4's store, they make Real Profit), no transparency between professionals and corporations, every game with MTX stores share the same pricing, same scheme, except D4's store lacks 'FOMO' or, Fear of Missing Out, i.e., the shop lacks items and will rotate every item every 24 hours, some into the same slot, some down to the bottom, some up to the recommended. If you feel inclined to buy, just wait, you will never lose out and they never remove items from the shop. *Game that has soft-lock issues where not enough enemies spawn carrying Animus on occasion. *Waiting in queue indefinitely, soft-locking in queue, login soft-lock. *Item windows and comparison windows constantly flash on occasion (appear and disappear) with no apparent fix or cause. *Enemies die standing up and their model doesn't disappear. Haven't seen any T-posing, they just die with their idle animation active until you log out. Happens frequently in the Blood Harvest seasonal event. Made it to level 54 HC Necro, 70 SC Necro Tier4, Lack of dopamine in Helltides, World Loot is God Loot, Same Dungeon Spam. Completed exactly 5.5 Chapters of the season journey. Got bored looking at all the copy paste armor sets in the 'free' game. Didn't buy any Macrotransactions: People listen, I'm in Sociology, I do Statistics, I love Math & Logic, and these are *not* microtransactions. Micro = small Macro = large $5 USD or $7 CAD would be a microtransaction in this case. When the transaction is half or 2/3 or 3/4 the price of a video game, this is called a macrotransaction. This game has macrotransactions, there are no microtransactions in the store. It's an egregious business model and I have deleted all my characters and uninstalled. I can't recommend the game even though I sometimes enjoyed my time with it because there is only so much abuse consumers can and should take before looking to invest their hard earned disposable income elsewhere. These are just my subjective ramblings of this 40 year old. You decide if it's for you in the long run. Oh, and wait for a sale if you want to buy, the game is frequently on sale for -40% off. Enjoy @everyone!

1)I know Blizzard gets a lot of hate, but personally, I don't think it gets enough. 2)During my childhood Blizzard couldn’t get it wrong. As an adult, they can’t get it right 3)This is a good game, a nice brain dead time sink that you need from time to time. Graphics, story, additions to the franchise all make this fun. The problem is, this company is greedy beyond belief. To pay 70 for a game means it better be all inclusive. But its not, they shove micro transaction down your throat even tho you shelled out more than the average game. Either I pay big money for a game and there is nothing else I have to purchase or you make it free and nickle and dime me to death. Either way, Im fine with it. BUT you cant have both. Its been 8 years since I have played a Blizzard game. There is a reason for that. Blizzard used to be the greatest game producer in the world. Activision has totally ruined them. I knew that 8 years ago yet i still put out 70 whopping dollars. Shame on me, lesson learned. There is zero originality in their games anymore, just rehashed brands the good devs that left for hills created long ago. This is a gigantic company that does not care about their players past their wallet. It will be at least another 8 years before i again forget what i worthless pile of dog crap Blizzard has become. Next update. First of all: not everything is bad about this game. There are good graphics, fantastic cutscenes and the feeling for the Diablo story catches with the intro! BUT: like others noted before. Why do I need to be online if I want to play single player? And further on that cause: I got family, kids, I play only at night. So one of my kids call, I attend to them and then I get back to my game to find out I've been kicked out because of idling too long? Why that? Why do I need a stable connection all the time? And then start all over again from the village to the dungeon I was about to finish, just before my kids called? Really, it's ridiculous! Please develop a patch for real single-player experience right now! Let me play at the time I want(can) and at my own speed! Until then, it isn't worth the full price to pay! Bottom line.
