Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
68 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The campaign is long and varied and offers lots of optional content, and the game's world is very enjoyable to explore.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
67 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The combination of dual masteries, massive item variety, deep character customization, and excellent endgame content creates incredible replay value.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
52 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
For players who value meaningful progression over seasonal resets, the endgame provides substantial content: roguelike dungeons, the Crucible arena, and ascending difficulty tiers that test both your gear and your piloting skills.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
46 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's all here - melee, retaliation (thorns), dual wielding, 2h weapons, guns, shields, spells, pets, skeletons, DoTs and way more.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's not quite the masterpiece many say though; where as D4 takes up over 140 gbs of disc space, GD only takes 10... and it eventually shows why; the graphics are lovely, but the maps are enormous and the textures repeat again and again.
