A Complete Beginners guide to Diablo III

As a beginner I don't understand anything you say. you act like i'm a diablo 3 pro . If so, I wouldn't watch your video

How is this a beginners guide, you completely jumped over campaign mode which is where all the beginners go.

HI

Thanks but I do NOT use "D3 builds from Internet"
Diablo IS for Lone Wolfs , so I came up with my OWN build which carried me all the way up to GNR Qual16 Lv.110

It's a little late for me to be watching this video.. I just started playing 2 days ago and have been having a blast and will definitely be getting Diablo 4 at some point.

I started the campaign as a Witch Doctor and have already hit level 67 at Torment III on Act 5. I have Piranha with Bogadile mixed with some active spirit perk. I felt OP at one point because I constantly had the Bogadile spawning along with 2 skeletons fighting for me that were almost always dealing damage.

I think the game had bugged out because I went to check on an unlocked perk, swapped back to what I had and then I stopped getting seemingly infinite Bogadile and piranha spawns.

Once I've finished the campaign, I'll be hitting adventure mode and grinding the rifts. I might even make a seasonal character and grind it out, but it might be pointless because I'm not sure how many people are still playing on console as I've had nobody join my game so far.

about halfway through this video i realized i don't want to play this game anymore, and i haven't even played it yet.

How is this a beginner’s guide when you talk about torment 16 and shit, players who is on normal mode just created their first character will have zero idea about anything in this video like wtf.

ass

Jst started like 2 days ago.. Haven't played since D2 yrs ago. Im in Tristan still I think n this video made almost no sense to me besides the companion n vendors. Obviously im in way over my head. Playing on Hardcore and Haven't died yet. About 10 more videos and a week more of Playing n I should have atleast a clue wtf im doing. Using the crusader btw with Templar .

A complete beginner's guide?

Sorry, but this began in a far-too rushed and over-concise way, especially for a more-recent guide to this game, and it barely let up to be frank! I couldn't "relax with my tea", partly because it sounds like you somehow cut the short gaps that surely must have existed between your sentences? (though using .75 speed makes you sound a little less like an advancing Dalek at times), and partly because I seemed to require a significant knowledge of the game - and of similar newer-type 'ARPG' games too I feel. Until I eventually gave up, I was constantly rewinding to either simply follow things or try to understand them. So as a break in searching for some helpful beginner's help on this game I feel moved to write a little bit more on this instead..

On top of being so short of digestible information, perhaps you are making a few 'modern play' assumptions too?

Re the beginning..

'It will take a while to get there anyway'.. where? What actually is a Seasonal Character to make a 'better' start with? Why would you not complete the final boss? What is the difference with the 'preferable' Adventure Mode? (could Adventure mode have been a chapter heading perhaps?) And the whole concept of upgrading the game's difficulty from within the game - do you actually need to be doing this? You should really explain the basics (or at least allude to something about them) as you mention them, or it just confuses obviously.

If you did elaborate on any of the above I couldn't find where for most of them. You don't seem to explain them conceptually in terms of game options. You went straight on to running over crafting etc, which tbh was done so fast and tersely it was discombobulating too. It was quite hard to go on from there to be frank. Surely this video is more of a 'Novice's Guide' for already-advancing D3 players who are are clearly familiar with these newer forms of Action RGPs?

I have played Diablo 1 and 2, some years ago now, and a few other arpg's over the time too - but this particularly internet-centric Diablo 3-onwards thing really is a different experience to me. Even to Grim Dawn too (which I thought was very over-rated as a traditional game. In fact I'm hoping Diablo 3 will be a lot better than Grim Dawn as a 'one-player/one-play' campaign for someone who may decide to stop there due to time constraints or whatever.) And I haven't played Paths of Exile since it first came out - I gather that's changed quite a bit too.

But for a true Beginner's Guide the viewer shouldn't need any important prior knowledge (eg how these games have evolved) just to help understand self-references that need to be elaborated-on or explained. This video (I couldn't follow it all) felt like a speedy appraisal of the game's 3.x features, followed by the various things that come up in play.. but was no help to me at all as 'a complete beginner's guide', as you style it, as I was expected to already understand (or 'get') way too-much of what looks to me like a fairly complicated game to shore up!

lol still no idea...complete noob here.

This video doesn't make any sense! This is NOT for beginners

How come beginners guides for games like these are always made for advanced players?
As a beginner I dont give a shit about any of this, all the endgame stuff, levelling quickly, high difficulties, starting at hard etc etc.
No.
I want an introduction to the movement system, the game mechanics, what classes do what and basic introductions to them, how to get started when I first start playing etc etc etc.
I learned NONE of that
Sorry, this guide IS great, but its absolutely not for complete beginners

Wooooooo protoxx alt chanel coming in massive clutch and I forgot I loved it!!!!! Thanks for letting me know which to buy buuuuuut I might actually buy the standard depending on price because I just want a tutorial and mechanics to tied me over and learn in 2023 here while I wait for Diablo 4 early release in a few weeks cause I'm getting the itch hahahahah. CANT WAIT TILL YA MAKE MORE DIABLO 4 STUFF???

Cool guide, for Power Beginners ;-)

This is not a guide for beginners. I didn't understand anything.

I personally just don’t understand Diablo at all

Fucking ads suck sir

Exactly what I needed been gone for 5 years

I've only ever played Diablo back when it came out. Loved it... I figured I'd give III a try, so many things I have no clue on.

I’m new to this game and completely lost here 😂 I’m like 10 hours in and only lvl 33

Thank God I read the comments before starting this video. I clicked off promptly. I’m just gonna dive into the game.

First off, Great video!!! 2nd: How are your game graphics this good?? I run a 4090 and for some reason yours looks better than mine!?!? What am I missing?

I just...what? I saw beginner's and thought this would help me in the first dozen or so hours. This was not the video I was looking for but I bet it helped someone out there. Good presentation.

this is not a guide for complete beginners
this is a complete guide for .. who knows, i understood 0/10

Never taught after quitting rs3 that i would see another Protoxx vid again. Quality delivered as usual keep it up!

How do I get that wolf pet you have? I really want it. please help

huh

I thought it was a good tutorial. Taught me a lot that I did not know.

Naming the video 'beginners guide' for click is pretty low dude. This is an End game guide not a beginners guide!

Im new to the game but I feel just play it on your own guides like this just trouble you. Play at the difficulty u feel comfortable and when u feel like u can go higher raise it. And so on that's how I'm doing it and yes I am a beginner I don't even know what powers/ skills work better yet I'm playing witch doctor. Take it slow we will figure it out on our own

None really points out the funny nicknames the dude creates just for showing the gameplay

well this was a waste of time

this was a really unhelpful "beginners" guide I still have 0 clue wth to do or where to start or really anything about the game except really specific things

I knew you could lvl a legendary gem and place it in a socket, never knew you can use one to overpower an item

When the person making the “BEGINNER’S” guide gets carried away and starts giving tips on things tht beginners wont see for 50+ hours

Absolutely overwhelmed, guess I'll just start playing

Absolutely nothing about this guide is for beginners. It's actually probably not even for intermediates. This is mostly about min/maxing your characters which you have to know all about the game jargon to understand any part of.

Why tell people how to play if you don't know how to play?

I'm in game, but I don't know how to hit the enemies.

I'm lost

played and died to mobs higher than level 30 GR, is there anyone who can teach me how to survive torment 6?

Is everything going well? I see that you haven’t posted in over a year.

Why came not a new Video?

mmmm biscuits

Are you fucking sure this is a beginning guide, no idea wtf you’re talking about

“Beginners guide” talks about the end game stuff beginners have no idea what hes talking about.

(Head scratch) I killed the skeleton king and got the sword back to the angel dude and began act 2 I just figured out I can give gear to the guy in my party the guy talking might as well be speaking Chinese because I'm lost af

Not sure why there are some negative comments below, I found this extremely useful, cheers.
