The game is supposed to be an ominous and foreboding ARPG, and instead I run across BgButzzzz6nine, or I start moving towards some creatures on the other side of my screen, and before I’ve taken two steps some Necromancer and undead horde come buzzsawing through the area like a scythe, and I have to try and find someplace where I can actually kill things. The isolated feel was a key point of the game, and added to the ambiance and feel of the game. Now, I can’t go 2 minutes without getting that immersion ruined by some random intrusion by another player. Is there some way to not be surrounded by other people while playing the game?
It’s my understanding that there’s no way to disable this in cities and open-world areas. Dungeons are instanced however, so should remain solo unless you’re in a party.
One thing you might consider trying is turning off cross-play. I haven’t tested it yet, but that might at least reduce the number of people that show up.
You can’t, but I’d try dissabling crossplay. That could reduce the number of players you’ll find (and improve performance btw).
That being said, once you reach endgame you will find a lot of people on legion events, helltides and world bosses
Offline mode (like in D2R) would be great for this game. Wish we had that option
I don’t mind seeing people running around but I’d love an option to turn off nameplates. There’s a rampant amount of I’m 14 and this is funny names and that breaks the immersion for me.
It’s for this sort of thing that I have no interest at all in playing d4
