I always wanna play Diablo 4 but then again i don't know if i will stick to it.
Question to you guys, How's the game now. Is it fun?

How are those PTR notes even real? Buffs to Barbarian again and nerfs to Sorcerer and Druid again.

Are the developers really this bad at balancing?

I didn't bother playing season 1, season 2, or season 3, but I'm still playing season 4 and am planning to check out the season 5 PTR. Take that as you will.

I have a feeling that they are only testing these changes out on mid-game to early-end game situations. Up until Pit 60, these changes don't really mean much. However, past that, the power discrepancies are really obvious, and the only way they can really miss that is if they either aren't aiming to test that, or don't care.

Craziest thing in those notes might be that you can now use a potion while crowd controlled. If you can really use a potion while frozen or feared that significantly increases survivability during those oh shit moments, and makes having an unstoppable skill on stand by not as important.

I dig the new color a lot as well

Lot of excellent changes and QoL, especially the summoning

Season 5 PTR coming in hot with the copy account like D3 so we don't have to level up again is sweet.

You'd need to do the battle.net work around. It's a little annoying but there are guides on YouTube.

I feel like I want to try perma-flame shield immortal sorc before that gets removed.

While I pretty much understand the problems brought up at launch I still enjoyed it ever since for few hundred hours now. However clearly the game is in far far better state at this point after blasting for 2 weeks now in S4.
I'd safely say it is great fun for what it is, jumping in for a few weeks for each new season. With that said it is also clear nothing will ever bring back the good old D2 battle.net experience, simply those were different times, with far less games on the market trying to grab our attention and playtime.

You need GA CDR and best rolls on flame shield duration, it's a lot of luck and work to put it together

 

[Rentahamster]

This looks fun.

[Orbital2060]
