Still grinding my way through the endgame of Diablo IV with my wife. Starting to slow down though, just in time for Pikmin 4 to keep things fresh next week!
Nice! What classes are you playing as? And how are you liking the game? Also, have you seen the trailer for the first season? What did you think about it?
I always start a new Diablo game with spin2win Barbarian, so that’s what I’m doing to start with; I’ll probably switch to Sorcerer or Necromancer for the season. My wife is doing a Pulverize Druid, and we’ve both been enjoying it! We put hundreds of hours into D3 together, so we’re just happy to have something fresh but familiar to dig into.
As far as the trailer goes, I like that there’s new quests and story to go with it, but it’s hard to get too much from it without any significant gameplay reveal. The description the devs gave sounds interesting though!
"Spin2win Barbarian" sounds fun. I generally start with some magic class, but then switch to Barbarian later, to get close and personal with the enemies! (Haven't started D4 yet though).
Diablo games are fun to play co-op, I played Diablo 3 a bit with my wife, would try to get her to play again when we get D4.
Yeah, Diablo games hit a good sweet spot— mechanically engaging enough to make moment to moment gameplay feel dynamic , but not so engaging that it’s too difficult or overwhelming for inexperienced gamers like my wife. Diablo 3 was one of the first handful of games she learned how to play during the COVID lockdown (after Animal Crossing, of course 😂)
Haha, same here. She loved Animal Crossing, and enjoyed Diablo 3 after that, but we didn't get into it that much. Would try again with Diablo 4.
