There's been a great response from players of the console version of Diablo 3 - yours truly included - to the more immediate feel of its pad control scheme. This has naturally led the game's PC fanbase to ask if controller support could be patched into their version of the game.
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.
Eh, I'm playing Guildwars 2 with controller trough Pinnacle game profiler. So It's not impossible to do so.
Because they want you to buy the console version so they can make more money.
Xpadder is a great app that works perfectly for Diable on PC. I beat the game with mouse and KB and then again with the controller. I even paid for the Xpadder download being the rebel I am.
I love the xbox controller for many games, but Diablo? I could never imagine playing that with anything else than a mouse^^ But having options is always a good thing so go ahead Blizz!
One more reason to hate Blizzard's guts.
They always have an excuse for whatever they aren't doing right.
I applaud they retained the Diablo traditional point & click control scheme; but where is the option for the people that absolutely hate it? There isn't (or wasn't last time I played) even the option for WASD movement.
With that said, D3 was garbage anyway; despite all the sales numbers (which are inflated due to the one year WoW subscription that included it).
