A Diablo 4 player's Hardcore run was brought to a very abrupt and equally unfair end because of a glitch.
Diablo 4's Hardcore Mode allows players to dial up the intensity as here, coming face-to-face with the grim reaper doesn't 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, it's a brutal road to travel, and while it's 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, it's downright heartbreaking.
