I like Diablo and unlike the old heads who don’t actually play the game, I think 3 was peak.
Sure, it wasn’t super difficult dark fantasy dungeon crawling like D2 but shit was fun, well designed and had good variety. It’s a good power fantasy of you being overpowered and killing hundreds of mobs and still getting nice power spikes in the form of rare items that actually make a difference unlike in 4.
3 was okayish after they removed the real money ingame shop, which they felt necessary as they wanted the share of the traded items that previously were sold on ebay at the time. D2 is the best of the series, as it’s still a PC game at heart and not targeting controllers and not mini wow like d4 is. I think a Diablo 2 with a good story and ideas from the mod project Diablo would increase long term playability and get me the most.
I am betting they’ll add movement sets from soulslike games and make it controller first gameplay. Just like path of exile 2. That alone will kill the game for me.
3 wasn’t awful, I got plenty of enjoyment out of it. Loved 2 and 2r, 4 was meh at best imo. Haven’t watched the trailer for 5 yet but will soon, am excited!
