〰️〰️〰️ Is Diablo IV “Pay to Win”? What do you get for spending real world money? 〰️〰️〰️

Since this is a AAA game, one is paying for the game and there should be no advertising. Since this is an open beta, all features were not known at the time of this video.

That said, in these days of micro-transactions, there are purchases which can be made. Most likely along the lines of cosmetics and inventory space - as other games have done.

〰️〰️〰️ Is there any objectionable material in Diablo IV? 〰️〰️〰️

This is not a game for children. This game is rated “M” - and for good reason.

There is blood. There is gore. There is corpse manipulation. There is definitely lots of violence. We have encountered some foul language.

〰️〰️〰️ Is Diablo IV fun to play? Is the game challenging? Is this game a grind? 〰️〰️〰️

“Fun” is a relative word and depends on the player playing the game. What is this person seeking in games?

That said, this game can be fun for a wide array of players.

Based on previous Diablo games and based on this beta, we are confident that Diablo IV will be challenging. We are also confident that this game will be a grind. Blizzard has a reputation of creating games that feature a grind element and we do not expect this one to be any different.

〰️〰️〰️ Is Diablo IV playable on a mobile device? 〰️〰️〰️

Diablo IV is made for the Personal Computer and some gaming consoles. If one desires to play on a personal computer, it will most likely need to be a fairly recent and fairly beefy one.

〰️〰️〰️ What about in-game advertisements? How many are there? How intrusive are they? Do you get anything for enduring them? 〰️〰️〰️

As Diablo IV is a game one purchases, there is no need for in-game advertisements.

〰️〰️〰️ What is the story in Diablo IV? 〰️〰️〰️

The story takes place about 30 years after Diablo III's Reaper of Souls. Cultists summon Lilith; daughter of Mephisto. With the angelic and demonic forces depleted, Lilith can be summoned and has her own plans for humanity.

〰️〰️〰️ Is this a commitment game or a casual game? 〰️〰️〰️

As with any game one purchases, there is a commitment factor to it. After all, why pay for a game and not play it?

That said, Diablo IV is definitely a commitment game.

〰️〰️〰️ What is this video about? 〰️〰️〰️

This video shows the first six (6) levels playing the Sorceress. This video shows the character creation all the way into the first town.

This shows Diablo 4 during the Server Slam event which took place on May 12 through May 14. This was the last beta event before the game's release on 6/6/2023.

〰️〰️〰️ Anything else we should know? 〰️〰️〰️

We apologize for the video. Even though this machine is indeed beefy, it is also showing its age with these new games. The video is choppy in places and the graphics were set very low to get some decent game play.
