The vast world in Diablo 4 presents players with a staggering extent of tasks to complete, with the quest list in Act One of the campaign one of the most daunting on paper.
Serving as the entry point to the sequel and setting out the story, Act One is one of the largest of the six acts in terms of length and may be familiar to players who participated in the beta.
For those hoping to skip right through to the endgame, completion of the Diablo 4 story is required before you can reach higher World Tiers and the better rewards they offer, and must be completed at least once before it can be skipped.
