Diablo: IncGamers caught up with Diablo creator and Gazillion's CEO David Brevik to find out his thoughts on Diablo 3 and he discusses the mixed emotions he feels about 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.
They blew it. Ruined one of the best PC game brands. From DRM, poor server service, useless rare items, bugs ... I know I'm forgetting other things but that's only because the list of frackups is so long to remember all of them.
SO I want my money back? What I can't get a refund? No problem because I already sold it and wow look at all these other people selling their copies too.
I never bought D3 so I can't comment. If I can't play it offline then it just ain't Diablo anymore.
I too am hoping that Torchlight 2 launches soon, (before Borderlands 2 comes out, since that what I'll probably play until November despite having preordered Dishonored).
