Comment on Diablo® IV is coming to Steam

Slogging through the campaign for 40 hours with maybe 5hrs of interesting story/scenes and 10min of worthwhile cut scenes, all so I could do their Season 1 challenges, which had such riveting tasks as "Modify 2 pieces of armor at the blacksmith" and "upgrade your healing potion" to complete it.

Anyone interested in D4 should just wait until it's like $15.

Solo, I agree. Co-op, is a far more enjoyable experience.

  We played as a group of 4 when we could but we’re mid-30’s with kids and jobs lol the game needs to be solid solo as well.

    I don’t know what the jobs and kids have to do with anything, but there is quite a bit of boredom involved with this one. I am still enjoying playing through the classes and messing with builds and aspects, but there doesn’t seem to be a lot of endgame focus yet (nm dungeons get old quick) and the story is sooooo uninteresting. Which is a shame, cuz Lilith seems like a pretty cool character.
    
    It’s still remarkably better than d3 was at release.

    I brought that up because it means we all need a decent single player experience for when our schedules don’t lineup, which is frequently

I couldn’t even bring myself to finish the campaign, it was just so soulless and grindy, I gave up halfway.

  I hated the campaign too. It was boring, and I never felt invested in it at all.

Same experience here -- I started a seasonal character and gave up at level 12 because while the malignant hearts were a neat concept, everything else was ridiculously trite and stupid.

  I can't believe it was supposed to last multiple months. By day 3 or 4 my buddies and I were like "well we've seen all there is to see." Probably put 6-8 hours into it.
