That's worse than saying Call of Duty and Counter Strike are identical. You shoot guns and play against other people in both, but they're significantly different experiences. You can play deliberately in COD or run and gun in CS, but that isn't what each game rewards. The focus of each game is drastically different. CS doesn't have killstreaks like in COD, and Diablo doesn't have comprehensive roleplaying like in BG3.

i already said i take it back, this looks way more tedious and chorelike than diablo, I'm getting that mixture of bored and frustrated just watching it

Hint: the combat isn't the point. The characters and narrative are. It's literally DnD.

hint: that tracks because DnD is literally the least fun game I've ever made the mistake of trying to play

I did, I ditched those lame nerds who play games where you sit and wait most of the time and act like something's wrong with you when you don't love it.
