How To Level Up Fast In Diablo 4
I’m no Diablo aficionado, having played Diablo 3’s campaign through to completion and several hours ofDiablo 4. To put it simply, both see you play as a blender that walks into enemies and spits out blobs of mince, where the aim is to optimise your grinder so no matter how enormous the challenge, you’re still able to plop out the same neat packages of tenderised meat.
What’s annoying about Diablo 4 is that it expects you to press buttons to conjure lightning or cleave skeletons with your scythe, when almost all of these baddies are about as menacing as a swarm of flies on a motorway. Endlessly, you press the same buttons, 1234, 1423, 1231, and the result remains the same. Maybe once you’ve beaten the campaign or popped the game into Nightmare difficulty mode, the challenge grows and then you have to startthinkingabout the order in which you press these buttons. I want less thought, no matter the difficulty.
There’s a special kind of satisfaction to be had in the Vampire Survivors/Brotatoauto-attackers, where you get to react to the powerups you plug into your machine and see how their interactions zap the baddies unfortunate enough to get in their way. What I want islesscontrol in Diablo, so it can feed even further into the power fantasy of compiling a set of abilities into an all-powerful automaton. Right now, I have to think about my skills and their extra boxes with little percentage boosts and my fingers as they press the keys.
