1)I know Blizzard gets a lot of hate, but personally, I don't think it gets enough.
2)During my childhood Blizzard couldn’t get it wrong. As an adult, they can’t get it right

3)This is a good game, a nice brain dead time sink that you need from time to time. Graphics, story, additions to the franchise all make this fun. The problem is, this company is greedy beyond belief. To pay 70 for a game means it better be all inclusive. But its not, they shove micro transaction down your throat even tho you shelled out more than the average game. Either I pay big money for a game and there is nothing else I have to purchase or you make it free and nickle and dime me to death. Either way, Im fine with it. BUT you cant have both.
Its been 8 years since I have played a Blizzard game. There is a reason for that. Blizzard used to be the greatest game producer in the world. Activision has totally ruined them. I knew that 8 years ago yet i still put out 70 whopping dollars. Shame on me, lesson learned. There is zero originality in their games anymore, just rehashed brands the good devs that left for hills created long ago. This is a gigantic company that does not care about their players past their wallet. It will be at least another 8 years before i again forget what i worthless pile of dog crap Blizzard has become.
Next update.
First of all: not everything is bad about this game.
There are good graphics, fantastic cutscenes and the feeling for the Diablo story catches with the intro!
BUT:
like others noted before. Why do I need to be online if I want to play single player? And further on that cause: I got family, kids, I play only at night. So one of my kids call, I attend to them and then I get back to my game to find out I've been kicked out because of idling too long? Why that? Why do I need a stable connection all the time? And then start all over again from the village to the dungeon I was about to finish, just before my kids called?
Really, it's ridiculous! Please develop a patch for real single-player experience right now! Let me play at the time I want(can) and at my own speed!
Until then, it isn't worth the full price to pay!

Bottom line.
Should you buy Baldurs Gate 3 or Diablo 4?
Things Diablo 4 does better:
Microtransactions
Live service
Always online
Battle Passes
$20 horse cosmetics
Battle pass not giving enough currency for shop items or next battle pass
Things Baldurs Gate 3 does better:
Patches don't nerf classes and items that ruins everyones build
Doesn't have malicious UI design that makes it extremely easy to accidentally purchase battlepass
Doesn't struggle to give you item storage space due to "engine limitiations"
Full story with an ending that isn't behind paid DLC
Doesn't take advantage of players by using predatory monetisation
(Bonus!) Studio didn't harass their employees to a point where someone takes their life
(Bonus!) CEO didn't threaten to have their former assistant killed
