Obviously, bosses will drop better loot, and it’s this higher level loot that tends to spur one on to the next level, and the next. Enemies will drop a range of loot from basic items to rare. There are a few things that make the rinse and repeat mob killing in Diablo fun. The game is split into four acts, taking you through cities and introducing you to various characters until you finally come face to face with Diablo himself. It’s this rinse and repeat that makes Diablo both fun, and sometimes boring―it just depends on your mood. These dungeons will almost always end in a boss. Diablo will follow a set of simple game playing rules: get a mission, clear an area of the map, climb down into a dungeon, and clear it out. You’ll follow the map along to the town, and there you’ll meet the game’s main NPCs and get your first mission. Once into the game, you’ll set out across open land and start killing zombies. For instance, wizards will mainly use elemental spells to kill enemies, while necromancers will focus on summoning. Which class you pick will define the abilities you’ll be able to use and your character’s attack style. You’ll get to pick between barbarian, crusader, demon hunter, monk, necromancer, witch doctor, and wizard. Class choice is a major part of Diablo, and is the major function of what makes the game replayable. At the start of the game you’ll be asked to pick your class.

The game is a third-person role-playing adventure with a focus on an almost button-mashing system of combat. In some ways, Blizzard did this purposefully, attempting to appeal to fans, but while there’s enough of a story to propel you forward, it hardly holds your attention.ĭiablo III’s gameplay is extremely similar to Diablo II. The storylines tend to blur together, and nothing stands out as distinctly unique in comparison to the other Diablo games. Especially not in comparison to the other Diablo games. While the plot is present, it isn’t very exciting. You’ll meet demon lords, archangels, enchantresses and thieves, teleporting between locations to do missions for various NPCs. After meeting Leah, you’ll go with her to rescue Cain, only to learn that a Skeleton King has risen and you need to defeat it.ĭiablo is built around the idea of small missions building into larger and larger ones. You’ll meet various characters in this town, some of which will sell you supplies, help you enchant items, and provide missions. You’ll come to the town where the star fell and investigate. A star falls from the sky and hits the Cathedral and Deckard Cain disappears. The console version of Reaper of Souls was released as part of the Ultimate Evil Edition, which includes the original game, on Augon Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.Lifewire / Kelsey Simon Story: Into the depths of hellĭiablo III takes place twenty years after the second game―not that you need to have played the other Diablo games to jump into the third.

It also introduced a form of New Game Plus called "Adventure Mode", where players can eschew replaying the story in exchange for having all the acts unlocked and hunting down bounties instead. It introduced a new act, a new class (the Crusader), a new level cap, powers and more, and answered one of the biggest lingering questions about the storyline, namely what happened to the missing angel Malthael. The game was given an Expansion Pack, Reaper of Souls, in March 2014. It will have amiibo functionality, with a Loot Goblin amiibo planned for release on December 2018.
