    Diablo 4! I find it oddly relaxing in my current state of mind. At first I was adamant about listening to the soundtrack and all the voice acting but I’ve found I enjoy it way more by just reading the story and listening to my own music.

    I’ve got a necromancer and a sorcerer. Necromancer is incredibly easier, to the point I haven’t touched the sorcerer since I made it. I will probably make another character soon, not sure what.

      had a friend recommend me to get this so we could play over summer, have you tried the multiplayer?

        Well, it’s always multiplayer, meaning you will see people out in the world constantly. A lot of content (like dungeons) is instanced to your party, though, so you won’t see randoms where it really matters. Personally, I have only played solo so far except for the aforementioned randoms :). I’m sure it would be very fun with others, though!

          ohh okay, my friend told me it wasn’t MMO but I understand what he meant with the party instancing thing you mentioned. Looking forward to it!

      How is it? I was never a huge Diablo fan, but played 3 through because I got it for free with World of Warcraft. It was okay, but I thought the story was kind of meh and it didn’t have the replayability for me as something like Dark Souls.

        Personally, I like it way more than 3. I could never get into the older games (including 3). Others say it’s a “reskin of 3” which I think is kind of ridiculous.

        The story so far is actually pretty intriguing. I mean, it’s not mind-blowing, I’m pretty sure of what will happen, but it’s still good for a game in this genre.

        Replayability is really endless, but, I don’t know if I’d say it has more replayability than the older games, it just may be more replayable for you if you like it more.
