People hate Diablo IV because they forget the "role-playing" part that goes into Action RPG >Having an open world is role-playing >Meeting other players in Sanctuary is role-playing >Feeling the cold biting winds of Kor Valar while you undergo a trial of purification to meet Inarius is role-playing >Feeling the stinging desert winds on your face as you traverse a sandstorm for a final showdown with the Pale Man is role-playing NPCs can't into ROLE-PLAYING and that's why they hate Diablo IV
But I can roleplay while playing something fun instead.
>>25964 This anon has a point
Diablo 4 is dogshit, kys if you play that trash blizzdrone
I do Book of Mormon study in Overwatch 2 custom games
>>25961 Nah. Gamers want to play games not do troony spreadsheet "gameplay" kys
>>25961 There is no such thing as role-playing when you're staring into a glowing rectangle, pushing buttons or typing text into someone else's pre-programmed dopamine dispenser. Outside of tabletop games, "role-playing" is a meaningless buzzword. Minecraft gets much closer to the real definition of role-playing than all other "cRPGs" put together, but it still isn't role-playing.
>>25961 One thing I do appreciate about the RPG Codex is how they shit on this kind of "roleplaying" with a vengeance. They call it LARPing over there, because you're really just roleplaying by yourself and the game isn't doing shit.
>>25964 OP will never recover from this.

Why are you roleplaying a single player game? From THE game series that started the trend of stat autism loot treadmills no less?
