Diablo 2 was epic. Diablo 3 is just a shadow of its former self. Even the graphics are arguably worse, which is quite the feat. I can’t be outraged of course.

Diablo 2 was epic. Diablo 3 is just a shadow of its former self. Even the graphics are arguably worse, which is quite the feat. I can’t be outraged of course. I gave up on Diablo a long time ago. The article briefly mentioned there was some outrage when they announced the console version too. Well, that’s quite understandable, because the game is really shallow, Zynga-style. Diablo was never a RPG with depth of course, the gameplay being basically a mindless point and click, but there was a lot of fun in character development, and there are entire websites devoted to guides for developing your character in Diablo 2 and all of that is gone in Diablo 3. Blizzard somehow managed to completely miss the point of what made Diablo 2 awesome. If they announced a remastered Diablo 2, I’d stay in line for it. Otherwise I don’t see the point of a new Diablo, as I know it will suck. And yes, for diehard fans, I completely understand the outrage.
