By the time I bought D3, with the release of the expansion (and armed with the knowledge that I should do so by prior experience with D2 LOD and even D1 Hellfire), it had actually been made into a half decent game. The true endgame kind of sucks, but it sucked in D2 as well, and up to that point I got a good 200ish hours out of it that I didn't regret.
D4 is just not good though. It's a skeleton of a game and the bones are stale. Diablo and Overwatch were the only things I was still holding out any hope for Blizzard for and they pretty much ruined both those franchises. So I won't be buying Actiblizz products anymore. They've made their point.
What if the new expansion is considered really good? Would you change your mind and buy it?
Potentially. But probably not at this point. They'd have to do such a huge about-face as to be a completely different game.
