“He wanted to play the server slam and then Diablo 4” – the community reacts touchingly

Diablo 4 will be released on June 6, 2023. A fan of the series wanted to see the new Hack’n’Slay, but died before the release. His friend shares the loss on Reddit and gets dozens of comments from users who support him and have great ideas.

This is the story: In a thread on Reddit, user Icy_Hospital_9690 protested the loss of a friend who was a big fan of the Diablo series, saying, “It’s only been 4 weeks man…”

“He was a little hesitant about Diablo 4, didn’t play the beta but wanted to play the server slam and play the full game. Now he’ll never see it…” the user explains. His friend died unexpectedly after a stroke.

He doesn’t know exactly why he even shares this with the community. But his post received over 1,500 upvotes and 180 comments within hours. Many fans express their sympathy and try to cheer the user up – with success.

The server slam is the last beta test before the release of Diablo 4 on June 6th. After the trailer, many fans got excited:

“Give us a list of names”

Here’s how the community is reacting: Many use the thread as an opportunity to share their losses or to distract with nicer stories. However, some users come up with the idea of ​​paying tribute to the deceased fan.

For example, it says, “Name your character after him,” which gives rise to a whole series of ideas:

  • some offer to name themselves after their deceased friend as well
  • others want some sort of identifier, a “clan tag” as kudos when you see them in the open world
  • A few players even offer to explicitly play the deceased’s favorite class. The creator thinks: if he had been able to, he would probably play a necromancer. The paladin is actually his favorite class, but it’s not (yet) available in Diablo 4.

    Icy_Hospital_9690 the comments seem to be helping. He thanks everyone.

    Can I join? In principle yes. Diablo 4 has full crossplay across all platforms and no direct servers. You can play with any player worldwide at any time.

    You can probably find the list of suggested names in the Reddit thread if you want to name yourself accordingly. The next possibility would be the server slam. This starts on May 12th. Just remember to download the game in time. This can be done a few days before the servers open:
