Diablo 4 expansion Vessel of Hatred enhances gameplay and introduces new class

Diablo 4's first expansion, Vessel of Hatred, introduces significant updates that enhance gameplay without requiring ownership of the expansion. Players can start the campaign with a new character after completing the base game's prologue, benefiting from faster leveling and improved difficulty settings. The expansion's story follows Neyrelle as she navigates challenges after Lilith's defeat. It features a new class, the Spiritborn, which offers diverse playstyles and abilities. However, the narrative is criticized for lacking depth and leaving unresolved conflicts. Vessel of Hatred also adds new gameplay elements, including the Kurast Undercity and Dark Citadel, which provide fresh challenges and cooperative gameplay. While the story may disappoint, the expansion revitalizes the overall experience of Diablo 4.
