A true classic
Hailing from glory days of Blizzard, when they could do no wrong, an iconic classic was made. Diablo.
There is something quite charming about this game. The graphics, art style, voice acting and sound design in general, all add up to a wonderfully immersive experience.
Finding and collecting loot is so satisfying in this game, as it goes a long way to helping you on your quest.
The three playable characters provide very different experiences. The random generated dungeons also provide a great feeling of exploration into the depths with every playthrough.
Although the dungeons were fun, they were certainly unnerving on my first playthrough of the game. I found myself looking forward to the return to town, to chat with the villagers and learn more about the story, gain new quests and stock up on gear. Tristram really feels like a haven but the music keeps you on edge throughout. When I was younger I never felt safe in town.
The original diablo stands far above later additions to the series, which focus on character builds, collecting endless piles of loot and walking through tides of enemies.
No, Diablo 1 was all about the journey. A classic but engaging fantasy story of a hero's struggle Vs the ultimate evil. I wish more games had this horror RPG style.
