I played the beta a couple of weeks ago, and this weekend was the server slam.

I really don't like the inventory management in this version. Other than that, could be a lot of fun. Maxed the level cap for the weekend.

I’m still trying to finish Far Cry 6 and a Switch with the two Zelda games keeps invading my thoughts. I’m sure I’ll try D4 eventually though.

I bought the big version, but had to work both the server slam weekend and this weekend.

So other than inventory dislike what other impressions do you have?
Graphics?
Which characters did you try?
I was always a Witch Dr in D3 so I am going to have to be something else now.....

Hola Senior Rainman!!

For the beta a few weeks back I played with multiple classes to check them out, for the short server slam I just tried a Sorcerer. They had a level cap of 20, and I hit it.

There are a lot of different paths you can go for each class, and you can respec for gold. You can respec all or just one skill if you want. Graphics are very good, gameplay was tight. No bugs that I came across. Map is pretty much the same, and there is a chest for storage in a room that is yours, but to be honest I just found it and ran off, I didn't even look at how much it may hold or if its a global chest across all of your characters.

Same gem type upgrade system for equipment like D3, but I only ever found crude gems. The inventory system probably isn't bad when you get up levels and don't really care about picking up anything that isn't legendary, but in the beginning of course you have to check everything you find, and it doesn't have the nice easy visual red / green system to quickly see if its any good or not. So its a lot of going in your inventory to see if you picked up something better. And you can only hold 33 pieces of equipment, but there are other tabs for crafting, etc. So, it just seemed to me like you couldn't hold much, and being a hoarder it annoyed me. But I need to load up D3 and see how much you could hold in that one, maybe I am just not remembering it.

Being that I am a hoarder, and this is a loot RPG, its just seemed too small to me. Seems like a deep crafting system this time, but I didn't even dabble in it due to time. Some classes can have multiple sets of gear setup you can switch to quickly, the barbarian can have three weapons equipped you can quickly jump between.

No Witch Dr this time, sorry. Maybe there will be DLC? I did not play the druid, but rogue, barbarian, sorcerer, and necromancer were all good.
