It's a beefy offering that is a clear response to criticisms of the previous expansion, and it puts Diablo 4 in the best spot it's ever been - a perfect moment for new or lapsed players to jump in and enjoy Diablo's relaxed, welcoming, low-stakes spin on the ARPG formula. #Diablo4 #LordofHatred #Review -- Visit our website https://www.thisweekinvideogames.com for ad-free, ai-free, clickbait-free games coverage.

Nothing like sitting down to do a boring task as work and a new SkillUp video pops up. I don’t even play Diablo.
"climax that never arrived" story of my wife's life
Uh oh... Last thing I need is an addiction to Diablo again
Fishing is for sure gonna be what leads to a secret level full of spear wielding manatees aka seacows
God I wish this wasn't the same game that sells $25 armor sets
Diablo 4 cons: it's not PoE or Diablo 2 Diablo 4 pros: it's not PoE or Diablo 2
WARNING 18:25 to 18:31 has huge Story Spoilers Skip those seconds
With how large of a channel and gaming coverage company you guys are/are becoming it would be great if you could spring for subtitles for your videos. There are plenty of people who are hearing impaired or just have an easier time digesting what is being said if they're able to read it as well. It also helps with words or phrases that are not used in "normal" every day speech because of video game terms. Also there are probably, like myself, a lot of non-native English speakers that can grasp what is being said most of the time but would benefit from being able to read what is being said as well. I know there are "auto-generated" subtitles, but they are far from perfect, especially in the sense of what I mentioned before when a lot of terms are not easily picked up by TTS because of the medium. Love the content, have been watching you guys for many years now, I just hope we can continue to see more improvements come in the future!
ShillUp this is not the Saros review
anything but the marathon review
There are MASSIVE story spoilers you neglected to blur or censor out at the 18:25 to 18:31 mark. You might want to edit or re-upload this video for the sake of players who are invested in the story.
Diablo 4's last chance (for the 5th time).

I'll probably pick this up considering, as a truck driver, I don't have a lot of time to play games , so hearing this is not as grindy and doesn't take as long to lvl and do stuff .
We’re never getting the Marathon review are we
Honestly, it's just nice to have games that are unabashedly accessible and pro-casual like this. In the era of Soulslikes and "forever games," it feels like a lot of developers are always trying to get you playing 24/7 or trying to hit you with this epic, grindy challenge but sometimes you just wanna turn on a game, click baddies to make explosions happen then watch number go bigger.
Doubt Shill Up will read this, but you forgot to blur the dialogue at 18:25 and it shows a massive spoiler. Do NOT watch between 18:25/18:31 unless you want a huge plot spoiler.
15:55 secret message for you from Skill Up in chat
Thank you SkillUp for reminding me I bought this months ago to play Paladin for awhile and then forgot about again. I’m exactly the type of player you mention at the end, just dipping in and out when there’s something new or I get the arpg itch and need a quick fix.
As someone that hadn't played D4 since release, I had a ton of fun playing the early release paladin season and catching up on all the changes. Did exactly as you mentioned with the "play 2 weeks then leave happy" and, as you said, I'm coming back with the expansion excited to play again. Hell, last year I even started playing the Division 2 for the first time since release and I've been handling it the same. Hop in for the season, finish the pass and season objectives, then leave to enjoy something else and come back next season. As a person that quit Destiny yeaaaars ago entirely because of the constant need to log in every week, it's been genuinely so nice being able to actually enjoy live service games at my pace. Can't wait to get into this D4 season
