Could Winthrop in Baldur's Gate actually be Griswold from Diablo? They sound almost identical. Maybe the Baldur's Gate developer was inspired by Griswold.

Moving around, managing how many enemies are approaching you, what chokepoints you can exploit, switching through spells in real time, not getting caught by enemies who are immune to a specific damage type. Even the light radius around the player presents an obstacle.
D1 probably demands the most "at the moment" gameplay from the player since you don't really get screen-clearing all purpose nukes like in later ARPGs. Crowd control is actually pretty rare and unreliable for the first half of the game.

>>719136381
It simply has too much soul. Modern ARPGs wouldn't DARE include shrines with permanent stat debuffs (bye bye 10% of your mana!) or Black Death.

I have replayed this game recently, Mage is the best class. Even in the beginning if you play carefully or level up some vitality you won't die. And Warrior is impossible in the late game. Hit chance in this game is so weird, it doesn't reflect stat value. Apparently monsters can nullify your attack when they attack you.

Diablo 1 should've been the plot of Tears of the Kingdom.
Instead of more climbslop it should've been about Link repeatedly delving into the depths below the Castle and learning about Ganondorf/how Calamity Ganon came to be whilst trying to find Zelda.
And Lookout Landing would, of course, be Tristram filled with NPCs giving lore and side quests.

I do like that Diablo gradually ratchets up the tension with enemy strength, level layouts, and area darkness. Hell doesn't have as many chokepoints or walls as earlier areas, instead sporting broad corridors and big, open areas. If you aggro too many enemies, you can easily fuck yourself, so instead you want to pull as few enemies at a time. And the way to do this is to take a step or two forward at a time and see if any enemies aggro on you and begin to approach you from the edge of the screen, where it's extremely dark.

It does a great job of giving you this sense of peering into the murky dark for any hints of danger while treading carefully through a dungeon. It's a great contrast to earlier levels where you could wade through groups of skeletons and fallen, or stand by a door to manage hordes of dangerous enemies. And it's impressive they managed to evoke such a feeling from an isometric perspective.

Why didn't Tyrael touch the Worldstone himself, in order to revert the corruption? Instead, he blew it the fuck up, making the whole mountain filled with remaining Barbarian tribes to be blown into kingdom come. I guess it's because he knew barbarians are a shit class to play.

>Anon-kun. It is me, Tyrael, I chose to be a negro now to truly live the life of a mortal. Deckard? He was a good friend, shouldn't have stood in that Cathedral there, though. It's nice that destroying the Worldstone made your kind ripped as fuck, well, who'd have guessed! Listen, I have a new, hot take. Remember soulstones? That the Prime Evils used to get stronger and begin their dark plan? I think we need an even BIGGER soulstone and catch ALL the evils, you know, like pokemon. I'm sure this time it'll work.

Diablo and Diablo II are king of hack n slash. It has everything required to make the game amazing. Strong story, atmosphere created by wonderful aesthetics and matching music. Getting new equipment feels rewarding, you need to fight for each piece. Avoid traps, be constantly on the lookout since around demons you can't relax.
I feel sad knowing that if Blizzard made Diablo III earlier, BEFORE they got pozzed by Activision and getting high off WoW's success, we could have another amazing entry, with amazing graphics and improvements after learning what players loved about the previous games.
Then, we get an epick, colorful adventure with character assassination from the very beginning - Deckard gets blown the fuck out by Tyrael picking a bad time to, somehow, just take his wings off and - burning up a little in the atmosphere, so he emerged black due to charring. How can an angel become a human in the first place, when humans are the result of demons and angels getting it on. Does it mean a demon can throw his horns away and become human too, after getting ejected from Hell?

The funny thing is that demons were waltzing into Sanctuary all the fucking time. The Worldstone's only function it did as intended was cucking humans out of their Nephalem powers, which was the only thing both High Heavens and Burning Hell agreed should stay in place.
And then, Tyrael does his animu move and this legendary artifact gets blown up from a single hit of his sword.
Tyrael's Might was such a cuck item. The rarest armor drop, only to find out it's gay.

If you played d1 d2 and d3 yet alone touched the books and other media, you;ll notice that d4 is disconnected. They use lore characters, but it's all disconnected. You have necromancer entering rathma tomb? Someone who knows necromancer shit would notice that it's like crusaders finding holy grail holded by jesus himself. Yet you not only enter hsi tomb, but find him dead by Inarius. And then another fuckup, because Inarius is such a prideful dick, that Ratham exploited his inability to shut him down for good, because if Inarius did anything to Rathma, he would prove to everyone that HIS OWN CREATION isn't flawless. Rathma was using those traits to calm down both of his parents and retain the balance.
Only good thing is the atmosphere. World is dark, nephalems are nowhere to be found. You're none, just a lucky fucker that still gets fucked by demons and still can get influenced to attack his own allies. While d2 protag was standing victorious over defeating Andariel, you can barely sit from exhaustion, still shcoked how the fuck did you survive yet alone banish the thing. Most sidequests end up neutral or horrible. Your struggles are insufficent to save the world, yet alone some people. You struggle and fight to buy some more time, get a breather in a doomed world. And then xpac happend and everythign goes into the shitter
I won't comment on the gameplay. It's literal watered down mobile game. It's not hack'n' slash nor arpg. Just mobile action game/live service. If you care about lore, check yt, it's not worth buying even discounted. I bought it and i'll repent for it. Do not make the same mistake as I did

the whole thing with worldstone was better explained in the books. It was the stone hell and heavens constantly switched possesion since it was in the battlefield eternal and alter pandemonium fortress. It could create worlds, but because angels and demons are flawed fucks, they were destined to die anyway after set amount of time.
Inarius remade it to hide sanctuary from the hell and heaves, because he was sure they'll just exterminate the whole world, since worldstonr was used to create something akin to pocked dimension with a living world inside it. Stone was also empowering humanity, even those with diluted powers from next generations, and over time nephalems would fuck both heavens and hell easily. Then there was sin war and sanctuary was allowed to exist by both hell and heavens, but nephalems would be perma nerfed and memory of whole thing outside selected few was wiped. One example was Uldyssian, who beaten Inarius despite angel being connected to worldstone for extra juice. D3 nephalem fucked both blackstone empowered diablo and malthael. And you had entire legion of edyrems with that power.

Baal corrupting worldstone meant that the sanctuary would turn into yet another hell world, bound to die like many others. Downside was that sanctuary was no longer hidden, allowing for full scale incursions. Also without dampening effect, few people would become nephalems again(d3 characters)

nuDevs get the ick from holy classes of every kind but ESPECIALLY paladins. whether we're talking about the """Oaths""" replacing deities in DnD or them getting added and iterated on dead last during the BG3 beta despite their popularity in the end product. a character full of conviction and purpose that genuinely believes without irony is like kryptonite to californians and their ideological offspring around the world. that's why blizzard has been willing to produce two diablo releases in a row without paladins and endure people asking where the fuck the paladins are for years post-release - the devs hiss and spit like vampires when asked to design them.

The reason warrior seems like is garbage is because of the difference between char levels and mlvls in higher difficulties, and the reliance on to hit% weapons. Archbishop Lazarus, for example, on hell is level 95, with your character maxing at 50, the differential is -45 and that goes striaght to your hit %. With a base chance of 50, that leaves a 5% chance to hit as a starting point before comparing to hit% and enemy defense. At a warriors cap of 60 dex, you would be getting a base to hit rating of 80, versus lazarus 120 defense that's another hit of -40. This makes your chance to hit lazarus -35%, but the game caps at 5%, so you will almost always have a to hit chance of 5% against them unless you gear for to hit% and NOT dex.
A single meteoric/champions weapon or better will reach 50% hit chance on them.
To get there with dex you'd need 180 dex from items, which would need every slot to have the best possible dex modifier they could have, and is still unattainable.
Basically, if a weapon doesn't have +to hit, it is complete garbage after normal difficulty.
