Yesterday I bought this game. Blizzard was once known to be an AAA+ company, creating legendary franchises like Warcraft and Diablo.
I’ve been playing online games for the last decade or so, be it shooters like Counter Strike or MMORPGs like Conan Exiles. Mainly through Steam.
Never, in the last 15 years, have I encountered a product so broken, like this game. Granted, Onlne games sometimes have periods in which you encounter lags or connection issues.
But in this game, right from the start, I have stuttering sound, in combination with graphical stuttering, and regular disconnection from the servers. I believe a game on Steam would get their ass kicked review-wise. I mean, sometimes there are 25 year old games that don’t run at all on Win 10, unless you dig into it and make them run. You usually get those abandonware games for some pennies.
But I’m buying a brand new product, trying to run it on a brand new PC in 2022, by a what-used-to-be AAA company (not anymore), and the game is virtually unplayable.
So now I probably have to google search and download fixes and play around with .exe settings and with graphical options and with sound drivers and probably supposed to fiddle around with this shit half of next saturday. This is disgusting! I’m too old for this shit.
I just want to utter my disappointment.
Just refund it, anyway you will get bored with the game in 2 weeks. after finishing campaign you have nothing to do anymore, there is no end-game in this game.
Blizzard now focus on getting money, e.g. with Immortal, they do not care anymore about gaming… just bussiness.
Just turn VFX Lighting to Low and that should fix the problem with the stuttering in certain areas.
Out of curiosity? What Gpu are you using?
On another note, just ignore. Danutz. He is the resident troll of the forum. He is just sour he doesn’t know how to play the game and he is unlucky.

And yet, here you are, still under pretty much every topic lmao
Despite at its core a 20year old game, the whole graphical overhaul is quite hard on the GPU. My 2070ti’s fan goes like crazy with D2R . VFX is also on low because I had massive lag /crashes at shenk and in the throne room.
It is what it is…but this setting and maybe playing around the video settings and switching something from very high to high should bring improvements without sacrificing too much visually.

Not started D2R since Immortal release. And not posted here since some time ago…
Holy shit, I missed the biggest plot twist ever in your character arc?
So nowadays you advocate D2R = Bad and Immortal = Good?
A bit obvious but okay, I think its still in character and the old stuff has been ridiculed plenty times.
D2R get boring fast, since there are no end-game activities, 10000000 Baal runs over and over again?
Immortal is far superior in terms of end-game, there are so many activities to do that not even have time to do them all.
yes, Immortal has its problems, e.g. intensive pay to win…
They fucked D2R with micropatch from 08.02.2022. I think you have Intel 12 gen processor. Just turn off E-cores in BIOS and game will be playable again.
Nonsense. Saying blizzard not care is just nonsense.
Yes. They care, they care about grabbing money, money, money…
And yet you love their biggest money trap ever

love? first of all, only D2 players love a game, D2/D2R… … not ok to love a game and to dedicate entire life to it but…
and no, indeed Immortal pay 2 win proeblems are too big to consider play it. currently I am doing some daily activities and that’s all. honestly do not have what to play in terms of RPGs, so Immortal is currently the only option.
Not nonsense, its true. Blizzard hasnt done much for the community the last years. U can read about game problems everywhere and nothing get fixed!! They just do nothing and earn millions of dollars 
I accidentally came across this thread (I was looking for something else) so I decided to help.
Make sure nVidia’s driver power management is set to ‘Adaptive’ (not Optimal or Maximum Performance). DX12 for some reason completely ignores the GPU’s boost clock control and maxes out the Boost Clock.
Force Vsync ON in the nVidia’s driver and turn it off in D2R.
If you monitor can switch from 60hz to 50hz, then set the nVidia driver to 50fps in Max Frame Rate.
On a 1050Ti I can run it on Medium/High, AO Off, FXAA ON (Set Sharpening to 15-20 to compensate).
And the card sticks around 67c (it was 74-83c depending before this).
Hope that helps. DX12 hammers DX12 nVidia GPUs. No doubt about it if the nVidia driver isn’t right.
