While it was playable before through 3rd party tools, this will make it much more accessible to many Steam Deck players.

I haven’t been following the Diablo news. Initial reviews were pretty good, what happened?
They actively nerfed xp to make things take much longer and at the same time the end game is very repetitive and even more grind. They don’t give you anywhere near enough storage either. I’m sure there is more I’m not thinking of. But essentially the game is good up until you hit endgame really and then with people leaving and it being designed as an always online game you end up having to solo things intended to be done as a group.
Diablo 3 had a lot of issues early on with being an awful grind and punishing multiplayer, part of why I’ve held off on buying 4 is I wanted to give it time to get polished like Diablo 3 was over its life cycle.
The D3 issue wasn’t that it was “grindy”, it was that they tailored & balanced the entire thing around the real money auction house. They fully expected you to waste money there to gear your character to make it through the game (namely the last difficulty where a lot of enemies could just oneshot you from out of screen).
Yup. And I dont even mind the grind in d3. But the issue is the grind has to actually feel rewarding and feel like you are progressing.
Loot also sucks. Run a bunch of dungeons and get dozens of legendaries. Too bad they’re all trash. Blizzard ruined the dopamine hit of hearing a legendary ding
For real. And for characters that need specific items for good builds it’s just painful getting the same 3 legendaries 10+ times
