I let myself get caught up in my Diablo nostalgia and bought D4. I trudged through the campaign but I just can't get into the endgame at all. Yet I jump into Diablo 3 again and have a blast. And they're still doing balance changes and even adding new features in this update.

Diablo 4 just feels so much like early Diablo 3. Loot isn't rewarding, it feels like you're wasting your time with a lot of the grinding, etc... I had hoped Blizzard would have learned since they really improved D3 over the years, yet it seems to repeat so many of the same mistakes.

This isn't too surprising as both diablo 3 and 2 are both better games. These games are about grinding. Diablo 2 has insanely rare uniques and runewords that people chase in the endgame and an integral economy based around the value of runes. Diablo 3 has the endless paragon grind and while that isn't super exciting it atleast has something. There is the super uniques in diablo 4 but it lacks the trading and economy of runes from diablo 2 to really be worth going after. The game is just boring.
