If you've played enough games you can (generally) tell from the way it's promoted and which friends talk about it
And sometimes by reputation alone, like Diablo 4
I’m upvoting you because I can understand why you made this comment, but as I’ve said in my own comment thread Diablo 4 has a legit game in it at least for casual play.
The story is pretty fucking brutal. The music is good. The gameplay is fairly varied and pretty decently thought out. And if you’re a coomer dat Lilussy is pretty great.
Main flaws are the grindy endgame, itemization issues, and always online. Price is also a factor and $70 is a lot for the game. I recommend to my friends to buy it at $50 and below
The level scaling is what killed it for me. Not only do you not get more powerful with every level because of the enemies leveling with you for some god forsaken reason, but you actually get weaker because your gear stays the same.
The only thing it has going for it compared to the other Diablo games is the bosses being way more mechanically interesting than in 2/3.
Valid criticism, level scaling has always been garbage in most cases. I will say the weak gear is honestly the point of the loot grind. You gotta grind out that good gear, and mid level gear with player skill will carry you until monster level 130. Nightmare Dungeon 100 for me seems like a min maxed difficulty, holy smokes it’s unrelenting
That's my take too. I also haven't bought nor felt the need to buy the last 3 season battle pass.
For cosmetics. So many cosmetics.
And no cosmetics that make skills look different that at least path of exile has going for it
