While an older game, Diablo III remains demanding one when it comes to frames per second. This portability gives the game so much more life, especially for single or local co-op players (of which the game supports four simultaneously). Instead of hunkering down for an hour’s long stage, Diablo III can now be conquered in bed, on bus rides, and/or anywhere a quick loot challenge and/or level itch arises. The ability to play small snippets of the campaign or chunks of adventure mode on-the-go offers an entirely new lens on this classic. The game also tailors cut scenes and audio to each class and gender, further enhancing immersion.ĭespite having played the bejeebuz out of Diablo III across four platforms, I would venture to state the Switch version (‘Diablo III: Eternal Collection’) somehow makes it feel fresh again. Diablo III truly plays differently based on character class and level, let alone when tackling stages with friends in tow. With extreme diversity in character type, tons of fun character buffs, and great multiplayer, the game rarely gets old. Further, Diablo III levels up in difficulty as a character does, and rewards ambitious attempts to take down higher level bad guys via better loot drops. There’s an omnipresent risk versus reward conundrum, as die…and there goes said loot. While there’s a storyline (in campaign mode), the main calling card is to wade just a bit further into these hundreds of dungeons in hopes of locating better enemies and drops. If you’ve been under a rock, Diablo III is an action-adventure RPG comprised of a world packed with multi-level dungeons. This loyalty is for very good reason: one would be hard pressed to find a better dungeon crawler-slash-loot grab fest in the history of gaming. It’s hard to believe Diablo III is now seven years old, plus steadfastly maintains its very loyal playing base on both consoles and PC.
