Gamers got thrown a couple bones with Titanquest and Hellgate: London over the last few years, but at the end of the day we still find ourselves waiting for the return of the master: Diablo. In Ubergames never-ending attempt to help out developers they have laid out the blueprint for Diablo 3 just in case Blizzard forgot gamers are still waiting for it...impatiently.
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.
While some of this "features" are good and even obvious the but whole "WOW" related is CRAP...I get it you like WOW...but no, not every game has to be like it -_- and don't even bring up that garbage of using the WOW engine its RETARDED to use and Engine as outdate as that one...hey why not use the Quake 2 engine them! >.>
I think this dude should played Titan Quest to know a few things on how to successfully bring the Diablo formula more up to date...than constantly refiring to WOW -_-
I wish Blizzard would just revise Diablo 2 with some updated graphics and a new expansion and release that. I would buy it just for updated graphics.
Single player and online multiplayer like the previous one I dont want a MMORPG!! I am sick of MMORPG's!!!
I loved Diablo 1 and really enjoyed Diablo 2 they have always had this eery feeling and great visuals and movies.
I just want the game to be the same as before with better visuals.
Imo Diablo has been on of the best games for the amount of choice in items etc.
def need Better economy system
i still remember have tons of SOJs.... gold are worthless in D2
An environment in which hacking and botting is as easy as it was for Diablo 2. Thats what killed the game for me online. Everyone cheated and had the best of the best as far as armor is concerned.
BTW ... what are the chances of this coming to a console? I remember diablo one on the playstation. I would love to see this come to a console as I don't really PC game anymore.
