The general sentiment around Diablo 4 is a blend of enthusiasm for its graphics and gameplay, tempered by discontent regarding the monetization practices and some technical issues. While some players love the additions and expansions and feel the game is improving, others are frustrated by the restrictive features and treatment of previous content.
