The official Fortnite account gave an obscured and funny tweet saying, “Who do they remind you of? Tag them 😈,” alongside some really mysterious shots of in-game monsters. And the replies were a sight for sore eyes. The Diablo IV community came all in, delivering a fine mix of bakken insults, pure honesty, and solid feedback; the end gamers never held back.

Now, in the interest of starting a conversation, the tweet was more or less vague—monster shots without any context. A classic Diablo. But the people wouldn’t let that ride. It was an opening for a few burns on the game, with user @SeetheF4ggotS saying things like, “Diablo has really fallen off.” Double Ouch! But that wasn’t quite enough. @creativityisded gave an encore: “pack it tf up.no one gives a fuck about this dead game.”

@Yikoshi picked some of them up with monster screams for comic relief and compared them to “my uncle after Thanksgiving dinner.” @Loatheburger jokingly said, “Hey now- I didn’t consent for you to use my picture for #2.” Then @Sabraksis chimed in, saying one looked like “your average employee over there” and the other like “your fan base.”

There was a genuine attempt to offer feedback. @DaBrownBull proposed monthly cosmetics for the Dark Citadel raid, which should provide an incentive to replay. And @danczer1 pitched the concept of an in-game monster index with 3D models plus kill count. See? These gamers are not just here to complain; they come with ideas.

The remainder of the thread continued with slander directed at Diablo IV. “Too bad they didn’t put Diablo in Diablo IV 😒,” said @Mark___Wallace sarcastically, going straight at the jugular, while @ThePollus returned with, “monsters remind me of how much money I paid to be a beta tester of your Diablo IV game.” Yikes. Then @ranthilafetid chipped in about the price, joking whether one monster “reminds me of buying another Diablo 4 for the price of a costume.”

Not to leave out the international vibe: @Omerc34 replied in Turkish with “Oyunu düzelt boÅŸ yapma,” roughly scoring as “Fix the game, stop talking nonsense.” That, perhaps, is the common sentiment among the players.

So, what mutual lesson can we draw out of this? Diablo’s players are still passionate, whether roasting the game, memeing the monsters, or dropping legit suggestions. Love it or hate it one thing is sure-players aren’t ashamed of trying to encourage each other in a very bold way. To be honest, that’s what makes the Diablo fanbase so enjoyable to watch. Now, can Blizzard please listen to some of those suggestions? You know one can hope.
