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.

Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
This is the kind of truth that's missing from big named sites...Instead of calling out publishers/studios for releasing games with bad stories and technical issues they just ignore all of that and dish out high scores for bigger named titles....
Its Activision.
What did people expect.
So people actually play Diablo for the story?
Graphics aside, I would easily mistake this for Diablo 2.
blah blah blah same story as diablo 1 .
