Diablo 4

[Evelynn]

I played Diablo 4 a few times, but I was suffering from such insane lag and stuttering that the game was practically unplayable for me. My specs are fine, but I don't know if it's because I only have 16GB RAM or if it's the Blizzard servers. For now, it's going to rest on my Bnet until I can download more RAM or the hype dies down a bit.

I believe the devs have said that there are memory leakage issues that they're looking into. IIRC, they don't expect to implement the fixes until Season 2

I’ve seen played purely on my PS5 and haven’t had issues with stuttering or lag. And playing on console I was 100% expecting to have some lag but alas.

If your CPU and GPU are more than capable, could it simply just be your internet connection? I think @(you need an account to see links) has dealt with some lag though previously?

I don't think it's my internet connection. To be fair, I am Australian, but I also know a lot of people have been mentioning that the lag is pretty terrible all around, even for people with better internet and higher end PCs. One of the biggest problems I think is that I only have the 16GB of RAM. For instance, higher graphics options seem to be locked to 32GB. Which I don't really care for, I'm playing on the absolute lowest settings.

I play more intensive games without problem, so I feel like it's the servers/RAM. Now that I've bought the game, it isn't going anywhere though, so I can simply enjoy it later on and it's really no issue for now. Just a little disappointing.

Mine is/was my internet connection but when the game first came out their servers couldn't handle the traffic. It's a lot better now I think.

Just hit 60 on my rogue, really enjoying playing her! Feel so much faster and stronger than my druid.

Majority of my friends have lost interest in the game, hope the new patch helps pull some people back in 🤞

It definitely is. I find it’s still quite active
@(you need an account to see links) have you been playing the new season yet? I made a sorceress and she’s currently at level 48. My eternal character was only level 58. At this rate my seasonal will surpass my eternal

So many people I know stopped playing once they brought the massive nerfs out pre-season, myself included. Encouraged by some of the patch notes coming for August 8th to check out Season 1!

Wait what did they nerf? Clearly I’m still new to this world 😅

There was a ton that got hit with the Season 1 patch, but most prominently a 40% reduction to Vulnerable damage along with nerfs to Critical Strike Damage and Cooldown Reduction. Not as noticeable until you reach endgame content but really limited damage numbers at level 70+. Last weeks patch and next weeks patch should do a lot to bring everything back in line!
