I had played Diablo II when I was young. I’m not a big Diablo fan, but I’m attracted by this new release, and I’m interested to play with my friends.
I can’t decide that I should buy a PS5 version or PC version. Here are some pros and cons I’m thinking about.
- I don’t have a powerful gaming PC yet. Before I made my decision of a new PC build, I may need to play with low quality graph (EDIT: I already have a PS5).
- I could buy a pre-owned PS5 Disc, which is cheaper. If I don’t like it, I could trade-in the disc.
- I don’t have a PS membership right now. I know I missed one promotion in early June. Is the membership necessary for playing Diablo IV?
- If I need to organize my backpack, will keyboard&mouse be more convenient than controller?
- I have a Steam Deck and I want to use it for some causal play. Proton or PS Remote Play, which works better?
Thank you for all your suggestions.
EDIT: Considering the suggestion by @LemmyAtem@beehaw.org, I’ve purchased the PS5 version so we could enjoy the game together in the living room. We also confirmed that, without PS+, it’s okay to play solo.
I asked myself the same question and went with the ps5 version because i have a 4k monitor and my PC isn’t beefy enough to power that thing. I played almost 100 hours with all my friends being on PC and had zero issues. I played all previous versions on PC and I don’t want to go back to keyboard and mouse. Only reason for me to go with the of version would be the steam deck.
