Anyone tried Diablo 4 on PlayStation? (beehaw.org)

I might want to buy it one day (maybe once the price drops). I liked Diablo 3 for situations when you come home and just feel like slaying thousands of monsters – you know those days. I had some trouble getting the gearset right, but waddled through that somehow. So, questions:

Is Diablo 4 playable on PS5? (In terms of a well done console port)
Are the game mechanics more complicated than in the previous version? (That might break my neck)

Bonus question:

It’s not as terrible as Diablo Immortal, right? ;)

-I'm currently playing on PS5 and I love it. I have had zero bugs. -I don't find it very complicated, but it is more so than the previous entries. -It's easily the best the series has been in 20 years.

Sounds good, thanks!

How is the visual performance for you? I played on PS5 during the beta, and even in some very early-game areas, I was getting some major drops in quality. If there were more than ~10 enemies in the vicinity, their animations would drop to like 15 FPS while the rest of the game ran at ~60, and was looking jarringly bad. It ended up making enemies look like 2D sprites, so I'm hopeful that they improved this in the full release!

I'm also on PS5 and haven't noticed anything like that, but I'm a) on 1gbps fiber internet and 2) not super discerning about graphical fidelity. I'm still on a 1080p TV.
