I let myself get caught up in my Diablo nostalgia and bought D4. I trudged through the campaign but I just can't get into the endgame at all. Yet I jump into Diablo 3 again and have a blast. And they're still doing balance changes and even adding new features in this update.

Diablo 4 just feels so much like early Diablo 3. Loot isn't rewarding, it feels like you're wasting your time with a lot of the grinding, etc... I had hoped Blizzard would have learned since they really improved D3 over the years, yet it seems to repeat so many of the same mistakes.

D4, I bought it, I regret it. 60 hours and some change, did a lot of side quests so I didn't finish the campaign yet, level upper 60s and the game has become so boring. I just can't bring myself to complete it. It's tedious. Everything feels trivial.

Armoured core 6 on the other hand... I keep on grinding one specific mission for credits so I can unlock the better gear to slap that next level boss into the ground. It just does not grow old.

It's a magnificently composition of explosive destruction. Every time you launch a missile, shoot a laser or spin up a minigun is just sheer.... Exhilaration. . It's my favourite Guilty pleasure. It has learned from all the errors of mechwarrior 5 and elden ring.

Liniar but repayable missions mixed with Elden ring type level bosses. So the game very much give you the chance to "git gut".

Genius.
