The magical item is not lost if you can find the monster that took it.Ĭarry a sharpening stone to keep the damage of the sword up. Monsters can pick up shattered pieces to prevent you from assembling it. It may shatter into pieces to be picked up and be sent to the blacksmith for repair. If it breaks there should be a chance that it is unrepairable. Monsters drop regular stuff only (Swords, armor, and materials)Īll special gear drops come from completing campaign runs at the end killing bosses.ĭurability of items should mean something more.

Hire villagers to take care of your pets when you leave your town or risk bringing them along. They may leave if not taken care of properly or may die in battle. Save distressed animals with a chance for them to follow you as a pet or to aid in battle. Learn creature languages with spells or somehow learn to understand them.Ĭapture creatures for interrogation for clues to reach campaign goals.

Throw axes that have a chance to pin a target if near a tree… For example, there may be a chance to strike a foe in the arm to possibly severe it off were they may bleed out. New character/monster HP models giving head, torso, arms, and legs have their own hp function. Save travelers along the way that may offer to join you to expand the town by hunting for you, gathering resources and things. Liberate towns from creatures that come with perks. I imagine it to be a single player hardcore mode option.Ĭhopping wood for fire, building a shelter, hunting food, crafting warmer gear to reach dungeons in cold regions…and similar things to give the game a more immersive effect instead of the constant gear up and grind style of play in D1,D2 and D3. I imagine a D4 mode of play to revolve around survival.Ī “killer” mode of play where monsters can be deadly if not prepared for them. Recently I have viewed shows like “Alone”. I hope D4 will have a mix of traditional play and a survival aspect.

I am looking forward to an adventure style that doesn’t feel too gear up and grindy.ĭ4, in my opinion, needs something more than the usual. I like the single player Diablo game mode. Please feel free to use these clay pieces of ideas to help shape the game. Thanks for opening this thread! I am excited about D4!
