Those that gave it up completely should consider returning for a fresh start. It's encouraging to see both how hard the D3 team worked to fix something they admitted was incredibly broken, and how many fans were patient enough to stay with the game as it went through its metamorphosis. Granted it would have been much better if this happened before the game came out, and the first year and a half didn't feel like an alpha test, but at least they got to the finish line eventually.ĭiablo is too important of a franchise for Blizzard to simply surrender. It's an interesting case study where the developers spent all their time listening to fans after release, and painstakingly reworked the game until they got nearly everything they wanted. With how much the game has turned things around since release, I think its genuinely possible for D3 to enjoy the same level of immortality as D2 someday. The game can be exactly as hard as you want it to be, and a huge amount of good item drops will ensure you're never without an upgrade for more than a short while.Īll of this is laying the groundwork for the final nail in the coffin of old Diablo 3, the Reaper of Souls expansion which will add even more openness to the game with Adventure Mode (plus a new act and character). Gone is the need to slog through the comically easy modes of Normal and Nightmare.
"Loot 2.0" has killed the Auction House dead, and goes a few steps further than even the changes to the console version, including a completely reworked difficulty system that allows players to level a new character from 1-60 in just about one playthrough, rather than three and a half. Enter patch 2.0 for the PC version which is the culmination of the console's lessons and all the mini-patches that have slowly transformed Diablo 3 from a mess into something worthwhile and fun.
