Struggles to resist buying. Purchase is inevitable. I know it, but will keep up the charade for a few more hours.

It’s really fucking good if that helps. Like “I want to keep playing this all the time” good.

Yeah, I can see this being like crack. Only got it yesterday and I already found myself putting it on for half an hour this morning before I went out. Fuck knows what I'll be like at endgame if this is how I'm feeling at Lvl 15.

Quick question, is there like towns and shops, and npcs you talk to etc, like a normal rpg? Every video I have seen just shows dungeon after dungeon. If there's more interactivity like a std rpg, then I may well take a punt on it.

It does sink it's claws into you quite deceivingly moreso than D3 ever did.

Yeah, but this is more ARPG so they’re just mission dispensing machines and relatively few will stick in the mind once you’ve blown through town. There’s dungeons. Lots of fighting. There’s waking between towns and dungeons. Lots of fighting. Basically there’s lots of fighting. All the time. That’s the genre.

Yeah there's a good RPG story in there for about 30 - 40 hours with hundreds of side quests and collectables of varying quality.

Rightio, I have bought this, first game I have paid for out with gamepass for about a year I think.
I will be shaking my fist at you all if I don't enjoy it when I finally get to try it tonight after the football.
N.B. EG/FG forum peeps have never let me down for game reviews before and I doubt that'll start now.

Good one user Vortex, you know it makes sense. See you back here in about 40 mins or so when you're deciding which character yeah?

crashV👀d👀 Sadly not, I have to take a load of shit to the tip soon, then have the olds round for brunch, then go out for a cycle, then maybe get time for character choice before the football...if I'm not on a coool hopped & malted post-cycle recovery beverage in the back garden. Weekends are busy these days!

There's a crossplay clan up called Fontgeek if you search for it. Good for post campaign murder and levelling other characters.

Did I just stupidly miss the activating the waypoint at the start or did it not become available until I got to the first main town?
This is quite good.

rockavitch I did that in the beta and the full game. I'm guessing it just becomes available after you've unlocked the one in town, or I just managed to completely miss it twice... Nah, it's definitely the first thing.

Hah thought so, probably a way to "force" you to go back and explore I suppose. Was thinking it was my fault for starting the game at midnight and just not paying attention.

I made sure to check this time. It unlocks after a certain point in Act 1.

If you are on pc and have a card that can do DLSS, Nvidia have moved the DLAA option into that same drop down.
Instead if using the tensor cores for smart upscaling, it runs as native but uses them for the AA. It looks the shit.

A rare morning with no rowing club as they are having a break so me and the boy just lost a few hours to this instead. Had to tear myself off as the garden is a jungle and I have a billion boring things to do but my god it really is the best Diablo yet, hands down. It’s stupid how good it is. Stupid.

Aye I'm feeling its pull now too. It's a glorious day and I'm sat in the garden with my book, but I can feel it winking at me.
Rude.

There's something very pleasing about the voiceovers too, especially the rogue. It's almost soothing.
Have blizzard finally managed to bottle crack in digital form?

I can’t even decide between left or entered ui atm. And want to turn off the mini map.
And yeah, Barb is my usual go to. I like the just a bloke with a big sword vs the legions of hell theme. But going to try a couple out this time.
Too hot for me outside so that is my excuse.
