Diablo 4s Hardcore Mode allows players to dial up the intensity as here, coming face-to-face with the grim reaper doesnt result in a handy respawn at your last checkpoint; instead, your character is wiped from the server, and no matter how far you managed to make it, you have to start all over. As death comes fairly easily in Diablo 4, its a brutal road to travel, and while its sad to have to wave goodbye to a character when your actions led to their demise when their death is the result of a glitch, its downright heartbreaking.

This is just what happened to Diablo 4 player RetroKrystal who posted on Twitter that they were "devastated" when, after spending 20 hours on a Hardcore run and reaching level 46, they encountered a glitch that resulted in their character being briefly locked in place, unable to do anything but spin on the spot. It only lasted for a few seconds, but unfortunately, this was enough time for Diablo 4 boss Mothers Judgement to Diablo 4 Items for sale grant them a one-way ticket to the afterlife.
