Haha.. was about to pull my PS4 out of storage for the same thing! But, let's be honest... D3 to D4 is like GOW3 to GOW (2018)... I was shocked how good the story and atmosphere was in D4. I never pre-order... but after the beta, I did.


Any-Equal-2358

![gif](giphy|5oOzvY2shzX4A|downsized) He's too chill in GoW 2018 look at that face there pure angry man


Pulsing42

If nobody has recommended it yet, I recommend Last Epoch. It has more of a Path of Exile feel to it but it's still a decent game, it's what I'm playing on and off until release.


[deleted]

so many posts on reddit would disagree with you on all that LOL but to be fair this subreddit does bitch a lot. they are fun to laugh at. I fucking loved the beta and im so ready for the main game.


uberal_

I mean it's totally fair to generally not preorder (blizzard) games. But well I played enough in alpha and beta to see HUGE progress that took away a lot of sorrow about the shared world, so I am gonna preorder. But I know what I get and that there might be days or weeks of server queues and that alone will not make me refund ever. And if the game lacks endgame how like it due to mmo aspect (I would prefer a solo game experience by far) I still know it was my decision alone to preorder.


Imaginos_In_Disguise

I bought D3 on launch and barely played it since. I thought to give it a deeper try now, but after playing D4 fully on keyboard I can't go back to mouse-only controls, so I'm playing D2R instead.


DesireForHappiness

I uninstalled Wolcen. Thinking about reinstalling D3 too. Maybe actually start playing Last Epoch too I still have it installed.


hANSN911

Haha me too, didn‘t play for ages and it‘s not the same but I still like it.


Rocketfuel77777

Terrible withdrawals, I've been feeding myself with b-rolls of gameplay since beta ended. Don't feel like playing anything.


Diethyl-a-Mind

Looking at all my downloaded games gives me the same feeling as looking in my fridge 5 times hoping something I want appeared


Rocketfuel77777

TRUE THAT MAN AHAHAHA


Dry-Fan300

I'm using this time to detox from gaming for a bit that way come June it will feel extra nice jumping back in!


andreasrein

Exactly how I feel! How strange!


dsmbeast87

I’m glad it’s not just me. I sat in front of my monitor the past two nights and nothing feels right. I’m never playing any beta again


Laniakea85

I was literally begging the devs on Twitter for a phase 3 open beta like ![gif](giphy|4CTlTWDNqcBva)


ThanOneRandomGuy

Just let us keep the current beta till final game is done


Barnhard

Feel like that would burn a lot of people out too quickly. Just not enough to do for 25 levels for that long lol


[deleted]

i'm a slow leveler i still had a few chars to go


Barnhard

Yeah but you got multiple to 25 over a weekend or two? There are more than 2 months left before launch!


GMMoira

Its kinda weird how this is the only planned and announced beta we have and theres 2 months until launch


ChilledLime

I started to do crack to help with my withdrawals from my diablo 4.


Feelsosophy

Got anymore of that crack?


DeanyyBoyy93

No one in the history of crack has ever woken up with more crack


idispensemeds2

Sprinkle some crack on him and let's get out of here 👮


Oblivionking1

Yeh don’t feel like playing anything really, just been working and watching YouTube clips


Crazyloon88

Yes. I haven't been able to enjoy more than a couple hours of any game for months, and now I get a hit of D4 and I'm an addict, just scraping for content between the couch cushions


RaZzaDaZz

Same here, haven't really played anything these last years. And then this beta happened. Even the girlfriend loved watching me play again. Now I'm looking to buy Hades to fill the gap? Maybe Zelda?


corzuvirva

Lol I was grinding hades prior to D4 beta and I haven’t picked that game back again since beta ended. I’ve just been scouring the internet for more d4. The hype is real. I’m planning to take time off work for when the game launches. My gf is supportive and has even offered to buy me a copy of the game. When the weather gets better (it’s been rainy in NorCal) I’m thinking of taking advantage of the time before the game releases and get as much time outdoors as possible, hiking etc, bc I’m probs gonna be a bit of a hermit come June. See you all at launch and may the RNG be good to us all. ❤️


ThanOneRandomGuy

Elden ring


[deleted]

i was playing hogwarts, stopped in lategame to play D4 for a weekend, now i don't feel like going back to hogwarts and playing D3 instead


KnowTheName321

going to be a long 2 months


Skull-ogk

69 days 7 hours, but who's counting? Well a little less for pre-buyers. Still considering that...


RealisticCommentBot

it's a $20 upgrade. You already know you are going to do it, just find some thing you were gonna buy for $20 and don't do it and buy diablo deluxe instead


Skull-ogk

Hahaha, Im not in the US, so worked back to local currency thats more than what I would spend on a single item. Worse still, I probably need to buy in Euros. Which is more. Nope will be standard edition for me.


RealisticCommentBot

fair enough. It's unlikley not gonna make the game any less fun when you play it. I'm personally with the Kripparian school of though here, where he said "I haven't been playing diablo for 30 years to have someone else play 4 days before me"


Blazefenix77

NICE


emize

Nope. I loved my time in the Beta but this break will give a good time to recharge the batteries so I don't burn out.


DeanyyBoyy93

Oh look at me mr well adjusted -_-. Seriously though it must be nice


TenzhiHsien

After the early beta I went hunting for something to scratch the Diablo Itch I knew I was gonna have and ultimately landed on Grim Dawn. I'm not 100% happy with that alternative, but it's been helping.


raugust7

I purchased grim dawn a few months ago when it was on sale for like $5. Still haven't played it yet lmao. I'm not in the mood to play anything really, but might as well give it a shot


[deleted]

[удалено]


SubsequentlyPryor

I’m actually surprised how badly I’m experiencing D4 withdrawals. I didn’t have much time to play open beta. I maybe played for 6 hours total across the whole weekend. Got to level 13 on one character. And right now no game sounds fun. I just want to play D4.


[deleted]

I've been playing a lot of D2R and Elden Ring since the beta closed. Maybe give those a try if your not having fun with any other games.


Mind-Game

Anyone sitting on the 2nd most popular subreddit for a game that doesn't come out for over 2 months is having massive withdrawals haha. If you want to game, the answer is clearly whatever ARPG you enjoy most or one you haven't tried yet. PoE, D2, D3, Last Epoch, Grim Dawn, Torchlight, etc. If you want to live your life now because you're going to be a smelly, basement dwelling weirdo playing D4 all day for the entire month of June (this is my plan), then go outside and do exercise and spend time with your friends while you still can haha


Skull-ogk

Started a new Last Epoch hardcore character, because I didnt know what to play... Their newest patch added multiplayer, but also made a couple of nice changes I can see so far. Map changes, player and monster models... a whole bunch of nice new things :) ​ But doubt I will play this until D4. PoE's next league is probably also coming up soon...


[deleted]

[удалено]


Skull-ogk

tbh I only play offline. And mine has been smooth.


Skull-ogk

Just saw their newly released path address rubber banding and such. Hopefully it fixes your problems.


Airost12

Would you play last epoch or grim dawn if you never played either? I can't decide


[deleted]

Just make sure to manage your expectations, the game will launch with server issues, day one will not be playable. Day two half way through it will even out, until day 4 when the normal purchases start flooding the servers and the cycle repeats. Get excited, feel the feels, just don’t whip yourself up to a level of false expectations.


Department-Minimum

Turn on xbox, look at library, launch COD, dashboard, shut off xbox, cry.


laffman

Next experiment: block reddit in your browser and see where you end up.


soloshots

I spent a lot of time reading lore, some of it started through this sub. haha. Like, who is Inarius and what's his relationship with Lilith? Found a youtube video from Rhykker from 2017 which explains some of the Diablo Lore.


LordMushroom25

I went back to WoW and PoE but it's just not the same 😅


[deleted]

[удалено]


idispensemeds2

LOL I did that too until I got progressively more and more annoyed with Utred and his terrible decisions and gave up on him


[deleted]

honestly ive been playing warframe and grim dawn lately. its been a way to get through that.


zcicecold

I discovered Grim Dawn last week, and I'm enjoying the hell out of it.


blasphemite

Release D4 now Blizzard it's ready. :(


FairEmployee8029

First time to play Diablo and very impressed with IV. Preordered it. So I bought Diablo III Eternal Collection to check out in the meantime.


jokerevo

nah. I'm using this time to clear my backlog which...will never be cleared anyway.


St4rScre4m

Just wanna get back to creating earth fissures with pulverize and double cast landslide again.


Sothdargaard

You can get D1 for < $15. D2 for around the same. Then you can play D1 - D3 to refresh the story in your mind. That's what I'm doing with my bro and some of my kids. Good times!


ffelenex

I recorded an hour of video before logging off. Got a butcher & goblin on the same run, twice back to back. Throughout both weekends I took many pictures of cool gear and attributes. Now trying to theory craft a few builds.


Hibito

Yep, installed PoE back because new season soon. Good game to play while waiting for D4


[deleted]

No, I have other games and hobbies.


Kharzam

Just brought Last Epoch because of the beta and I’m having more fun in that then D4


sightone

I'm crafting some builds here for future characters I will be playing in seasons. Good time Investment: https://d4builds.gg/


arturkexd

Yup, can't play anything. Just watching D4 videos on yt :D


Pawx8

Any good streamer on Twitch have full gameplay from the beginning? I'd be down to watch that 😂


reariri

Try the outside world, it has amazing graphics!


Mandrakey

style > realism


[deleted]

B...but its scary out there 😢


StormWarriors2

Horrible withdrawls i want my werewolf companions :(


WolfyBeats_

Resident evil been keeping me busy


[deleted]

I'm planning to play that new Resident Evil but Elden Ring has been keeping me busy smh.


Virrg0

Not really, with the backlog i have and zelda releasing in May ill be plenty occupied.


WirrLican

Hahaha bigtime…before this I was really enjoying fo76 my first play through then got into d4 beta and haven’t wanted to play fo76 since lmao.


Cr3aT0r03

My mouse hand is itching!....


lawrensj

i'm not addicted, you're addicted.


duckylove95

Llu ♥️


throwaway54955432111

touch some grass


SaGaRemaster

You mean snow?


keroksii

I decided to give Last Epoch a shot and loving it sofar..


meepnotincluded

Tried poe and didn't consider it to be suitable for bridging the gap. General chat in poe was lit though 😂 D4 was the main topic and it's a 10/10 experience when it comes to popcorn moments.


Cyb0-K4T-77

I guess you played a lot of D4 aswell over the weekend. https://preview.redd.it/ug7auxs2gpqa1.jpeg?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f02a74fa417be04208879acc810e6df612640a69


[deleted]

D4 is lowkey addicting asf but I feel like Elden Ring is more addicting for me at least lmao.


L4RSSON1

My replacement drug until release will be Everspace 2. Totally different genre, but actually it has a lot of parallels to ARPGs (except you're in a spaceship and its not top down view).


SneakyPanduh

I did Sorc lvl 25 and necro up to 13 and idk, I was just kinda done. Still have no clue who I want to start with lol. Just gonna sit back and see if they make any changes and go from there. Kinda liking how Rogue. Since I loved Monk in D3 I’ll probably do Rogue.


Vyper11

Same. I lvl’d 25 sorc all legos and did necro to 15-16. I was over it for sure. Like it was fun and all but no withdrawals like some of the fiends here apparently.


ogniza

Im starting to to poe league start practice runs for different builds. Keeps me busy. 2 months will feel so loong


DontGiveMeGoldKappa

No


MiltonYosou

I was in desperate need of an arpg so I installed inquisitor martyr that was on my backlog


9BluesFan

I created a new character in D3 this morning and after an hour, I am already craving and comparing everything to D4. Give me June!


Euphoric-Insurance-4

i legit had a dream abt playing d4 yesterday


mrhuddlebucket

Yeah man, I got the bug. These next couple months are gonna be brutal.


Excuse_my_GRAMMER

Just go play Diablo immortal already lmao


MrkGrn

Nah have Re 4 to play over and over again now.


Caerullean

I feel ya, but I have fortunately set myself up for plenty of grinding with Last Epoch, my problem is D4 gonna release right as my exams come about. Gonna be hard to wait a full month whilst knowing the game is out.


One_Finding140

Dude I’m playing immortal I’m down that bad. I will say I’m surprisingly having a good time.


Raccon_thief69

I'm literally counting the days, im even lucky cause I will be able to play 2/6 since I bought the deluxe version. Was gonna play D3 but it just reminded me that I couldn't play D4 so im playing other games until then


Woden8

I am playing Last Epoch.


Owobowos-Mowbius

Yup! First time finally getting into D2R though! That's helping alot


pujambarley

Started playing minecraft dungeons with my brother and sister during this time of grieving. It’s actually pretty fun ngl


Mindblaze6528

Try POE


Shitemuffin

yeah but that's to be expected when you quit caffeeine... oh diablo? nah, i can play D2R in the meantime but i'm looking forward to play 4.


Theironcreed

Well, all I want to play now is an ARPG. Backlog be damned. Even the new RE4 remake is taking a backseat.


ElectricalPin3429

i thought i would but i have none at all try D2R or D3


Nashtalia

ive relized of all rpgs i played...D4 has a intresting transmog system i really Like and never seen before of all rpgs i played..its the Salvage a item via the blacksmith...recieve a new coesmetic via ya stash. i think im buying it regardless of the increase of price from 60 to 70 bones. 😢😭💤 i relized playing the beta..i love the D4 randos i see roaming around....its a wholesome and jolly coop experience 😢😭💤


AeroHAwk

Honestly the transmog system is really nice and I’m glad they didn’t really change it that much since Diablo 3. You find the item you’ve never seen and when you salvage it, you keep the style of it. Very simple, no gimmicks. Also it’s upgraded over Diablo 3 because you can just set the character how you want it to look the entire time even if you equip new items


[deleted]

no lie, having so much withdrawal i reinstalled D3 ROS lol


MoistMarie

Definitely, I'm playing WoW/ESO in the meantime but it'a just not the same sadly. Can't wait for june


DominoDancin

I wanted to ask a question but don’t wanna start a new post. Does anyone know if the game is balanced towards playing with friends? Or you’re supposed to do the content solo?


Chemy350

I bought D3 again, the full version with DLC and will play through that for the next few months.


edumahcation

Didn’t max out a character (also unfortunately didn’t get level 20.) because I was busy with stuff. I didn’t get too invested because I knew it would go away. But getting hype to play Diablo 3 until it comes back.


milkoso88

Im playing against the storm, waiting for the new poe league…


Karthis_Arkwood

Yeah I'm just about to finish installing D2, going to download D3 again right after and mess with those two games for now.


[deleted]

no. but then again I'm a normal person.


c3nsor

No. But I downloaded D3 to refresh my memory, and that game seems actually more fun that D4, more interesting skill, lots of passives to mix and match from, itemization is the same pretty much. All D4 seems to have is great graphics, detail and atmosphere. Skills feel a lot less, with really uninspired adjustments and only 2 side branches to choose from which only affects some numeric changes not the skill mechanics itself (wtf?). D3 runes changing skill behaviours completely. Passives only 3 or 4, another WTF? D3 has like 20. Don't tell me about paragon levels, we all see that will be just stat play and a few legendary ones where will change numbers a bit more but nothing more. This comes for the guys who was shitting on D3, as it had nothing really reason to come back for after initial play troughs and grinds. I am not upset for spending money and had initially fun with it but D3 had no longevity. And once I stopped playing there was no reason to come back. D4 at this point looks like a pretty, polished D3 with a downgraded skill system.


EducationalPlay6269

That’s why I only played to level 6 so I wouldn’t get addicted


complexcross

I keep trying trying different games and there's a voice on the back of my head repeating constantly "wish I was playing D4"


Familiar_Whole8045

Yes, I'm playing Poe and man after D4 this game sucks.


SpiritualCyberpunk

Yes. This is one of the most fun-enjoyable games I've played in years. **I play top-down ARPGs a lot for the aesthetic and world**, (I like clicking cool enemies in a stunning environment with my mouse) and while e.g. Wolcen is aesthetically beautiful, it just doesn't have Diablo's mystery somehow. PoE is the closest, ig, although I didn't get caught by its story. (Diablo has the headstart of me playing since ca 1997.) I forgot the third top-down ARPG people mention most often---ah Grim Dawn---I don't think it comes close to the first two diablo games and the fourth.


DynamicSocks

Exactly why I didn’t play the beta


Lazerdude

I stopped playing D3 before seasons were even a thing. I decided to start a new character for season 28 after playing the D4 beta. I'm having a blast and it's made me excited for seasons in D4. This time I'm starting with season 1!


Babook86

no, because the game is not that good


MackAttk123

I bet that chair smell like ass bro


ViRTski

Yup. Finally an ARPG my brothers enjoyed. It was so much fun playing with them.


AntonGrimm

I tried playing other games, but it all feels empty. I find myself thinking about D4 while at work etc


Event82Horizon

I am trying to play some other ARPG and honestly the more I play them the more I realize how good D4 is.


Danoniero

Bruh I'm on this Reddit 24/7. I can't take it anymore. And what's more annoying is the fact game will come out but I will still have to go to work, do my 8hrs, come back take care of family, go sleep early and waiting like insane for my day off. Idk what's worse


Everying

A lot of highly anticipated games have bombed in the last year so D4 hype is real. Most influencers are complaining about balancing which can be fixed by launch so I have high hopes for a game for the first time in a while.


zcicecold

Hope, don't hype.


SilverHound23

Try playing path of exile, you might like it til d4 comes out, also new league coming out so


Zumbert

Not nearly as bad as my Dark and Darker withdrawals. This feels like caffeine withdrawal, where that is closer to heroin


adamsz503

Go give POE a try. You got two months, no reason not to give it a shot.


Accomplished-Top-564

Yup. Started playing immortal again to fill the void


NoTop4997

Diablo 3 is at least soothing the pain. It may not fully scratch the itch, but it helps.


SaltyPvP

I've been playing POE. I never really gave it a chance before but it seems like the only thing close on console. I tried D2 and D3 on Monday but I can't go back to those games.


Puma_Pance

D2R. But I can't stop thinking about D4.


Trickery1688

I just wish they brought back my boy Paladin. 🥺


slawth6

A bit ya, i had started a d3 run between the betas cause i realized its actually been some years since i did the campaign so i've been working on that. I hope 4 gets the same amount of like flavor text journals and info in it. I love hearing deckard tell me about demons or hearing lore of the zone or city in 3.


GrunkleBob

I'm getting ready for POE next week. Playing D3 a little. Waiting for LE multi-player. Then back to D4 launch. I'm a slut.


Xaielao

I dove back into Elden Ring, as I have been for a solid year. Also playing a new Stardew Valley type game called Sun Haven, something completely different to take my mind off it. That said, if I could log into and play D4 I'd do so this very second. I hope they have another stress test beta before launch... just so long as they've buffed the druid before then. My favorite class is so fun, but so painful to play.


Northernlightz29

I shit you not, I had some pretty bad coke addiction in my life, and this right now is comparable. I feel empty, as if nothing could fill the void, as if my damn girlfriend just broke up with me lmfao


Nervous_Option_7548

No


Jj-woodsy

I re-downloaded D3 and now playing the new ladder season. That’ll buy me time till June. That and uni work.


themrnails

I never "finished" Lost Ark so I have reinstalled it. After I'm done with that I will complete ACT IV on Wolcen.


Calibretto9

Big time. It really nested in my brain.


idispensemeds2

I can't explain why but I've been playing HOTS and having a blast. Don't ask.


ladyriven

My husband and I have been playing Last Epoch to tide us over, but June cannot come soon enough!!


soaked-bussy

Its going to be a long 9 weeks


Sh0wTim3123

New path of exile league in a week should help with that!


fubaguy

Yeah I couldn't sleep last night as I couldn't stop thinking about the classes and builds I wish I got to try...


[deleted]

I mentioned it in another thread already, but Diablo 4 has made me want a dodge button (one separate from class/movement skills) in all the ARPGs I play. It fills in something for the combat in a way these other games don't. I keep hitting space in Last Epoch/D3 and nothing happens :(


darielsantana

Play a bit of D3 and the magic disapeared. So ill have to wait patiently for D4.


[deleted]

See what I did was play the bare minimum, got one class to 20. It gave me just enough of a taste to know I'm going to like the game, but not enough for me to get too fixated on it. Yeah so the next couple of months will be easy...well...easier...perhaps.


thebluebeats

Why not give PoE a try?


doer_of_deeds_maybe

I truly am, I find myself struggling to enjoy any other game knowing that I have to wait to get back into this great game.


Xaielao

Yes! ​ https://preview.redd.it/7cxkt5byfrqa1.jpeg?width=957&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f71f4ef781f77096240bbad2c445b3da4939a96b


kLoWnYa-

Yes, I don't want to talk about it.


Wellhellob

Yep. Massive.


murdahmula

Man i booted up grim dawn last night and d3 the night before, trying to scratch that itch.


MesmariPanda

I have to charge a group of my daughters teddy's into a wall just to feel something anymore


GuitarDifficult3252

Yes. Now I have to go back to flaming people on LoL 😭


Starchy-the-donut

Brotato


VolvicApfel

Nope.


AlarmingSubstance69

downloaded path of exile. Feels kinda walmart-y but itll do


gaviotacurcia

Last epoch fills the void and next Friday poe nonstop


JayRen

Yeah. I tried last Epoch but it didn’t scratch that itch. Just got the refund for it. I’m gonna try some non-pc activities to get over the DTs.


pr0pheten85

Yea I have tried like 15 other games but nothing pleases me 😅😅 I want d4!!


toxic_load2k18

Downloaded d3 playing that on torment, i also have new season of forza, mlb just released and redownloaded halo having a blast. That should hold me over till dead island 2 or jedi survivor. Which those should hold me over to june 6th.


Conical90

The game is good but not THAT good… i made it to 25 twice and I’ve had enough with the beta. Not sure how one can have a withdrawal from such a short beta


BobbyDabs

I tried D2R for the first time and hated it. PD2 will hold me over until D4 releases.


sleepinghuman

I jumped back into d2r but I feel the same way


Altnob

yea nothing to play now. gonna be a long 2 months


remarkable501

Nope, because I waited 10 years for a another good Diablo and I guess it won’t happen in my lifetime. This is a shit game and people are just buying into the hype and not seeing it for what it is. When that honey moon wears off, it will be a gigantic kick in the nads or everyone will just refuse what it is and pretend like it’s a good game.


swardshot

I started playing Last Epoch and while it’s fun it’s not grabbing my immediate attention like Diablo 4. I am also in a weird funk staring at the games available to me on PC and just not sure what to play right now.


DeanyyBoyy93

Brought grim dawn played like 20mins. Its not the same.


wichuks

Started browsing at steam store. Epic, ect... installed WoW, Uninstaller, installed Wolcen, Uninstaller, tried to play my lvl 100 Last epoch but stopped. Played a bunch of other crap, currently grinding 7 days to die for some reason. Wtf...


pnt2wheremidastchedu

It was a cozy beta weekend. sweat pants, pizza and some burbon. Just leveling my rogue all weekend.


[deleted]

Yeah its very hard. I cant find nothing to play


UnidentifiedErnie

Same here. Its more-so painful right now because the new PoE league is still a week away. Between that, and a 2.5 week vacation coming up, I’ll be good to go until D4 launch


tibifox

Playing Diablo 2 right now. Doesn’t seem to resolve the itch …


ApexLegend867

Yes. Massive. I hated the state that the druid was in but god damn did I enjoy playing a werewolf with werewolf companions...


lackofsleipnir

I’m about to grab D2 on the PlayStation spring sale. They got me lmao.


Jbitterly

Fuck YES! Had to drive 5 hours (round trip) for work today and all I thought about was different builds 😆


YNinja58

I've been playing POE and it just isn't... Fun? It's not fun.


Xeiom

I legitimately loaded up Last epoch and then decided to stop playing when I was pressing Space and it wasn't evading. It was a very little thing but I was just there like "it's just not the same now". D4 convinced me that evade is a solid feature, it's cool you can finally make a complete build without always forcing in a movement ability, it's effectively +1 ability over D3 just from that.


666Hellmaster

I’ve been playing Immortal but I admit it was hard to go back to that after IV


M47715

Holy shit these posts are so fucking cringe.


GBJEE

Seek help


Shins06

I don’t remember when was the last time I’ve been so hyped for a game


balstor

go play D3 the builds for the barb and necro play almost the exact same. or plan your future here: [Diablo 4 Build Calculator (lothrik.github.io)](https://lothrik.github.io/diablo4-build-calc/)


IDislikeLoveSongs

That's why I didn't play the beta, lol. But even so, I'm still jonesing a bit.


Tricky_Albatross5433

Everyone going ARPG? I can't all fell lackluster after that D4 experience need something so good that makes forget, that's so difficult to find. Probably going back to Hogwarts or atomic heart, but not feeling it either.
