Ah, Diablo 3. It was probably one of the most hyped games of the past 5 years, and all of that hype went right out the window when it was released. Plagued by launch problems, “always-online” DRM, and the auction house, it was well recieved by critics but almost universally hated by fans. But here it is, a year later and this time on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. The real question here is does this console release make a better game? And surprisingly, the answer is yes. It seems as though Blizzard intended Diablo 3 to be played on consoles.
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.
All those games had to release without bugs.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Diablo III: Season 28 brings with it the Altar of Rites, an altar full of unlockable bonuses and potions that will require the gathering of tons of resources. One of things needed is the Staff of Herding, which also unlocks the famous Cow Level known as Whimsyshire. Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
I bet most idiots who give this garbage good review scores never play the original Diablo from Blizzard North & if they did & still give these scores then they r blind Blizz fanboys or WoW casual noobs or completely retards, for true Diablo fans it's sacrilege to even call this abomination Diablo.
I have the console and pc versions, i got the pc one for free when i did the year sign up for wow back before MOP came out, imho the console versions tho they dont look as good and are full of jaggies, play far far better than the pc versions, i was very surprised by this and also no AH which is a huuuuuuuuuuge plus.
