AusGamer: Heroes of Ruin Review

AusGamer: So, how about that Diablo? It’s pretty popular, right? But with players raging against the third game’s ‘always online’ DRM and multiple service issues, it’s nice to have a new Diablo-esque game on market that merely greatly benefits from being taken online, rather than requiring it.
