Grainger Games looks ahead to Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition on the PlayStation 4 and wonders whether the smash hit will be the greatest console MMO ever.
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.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?
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.
Yes. Yes it will.
It's not an MMO so no. It will probably be the best version of the ARPG due to Blizzard unwilling to fix the PC version properly.
If Blizzard can't be bothered to fix their PC version they might as well just make games for consoles from now like all the other PC devs that abandoned the platform.
Oh and asking £35 for the expansion on PC is taking the piss. It's like they don't want the PC version to sell well for an excuse to move to consoles hehe.
When? I've seen something like March or June.
Diablo 3 is not an mmo.
Path of Exile is better than D3 in every way possible.
Seeing Diablo on a console is strange.
