I’ll throw my vote for Diablo 3. The game can be wicked addictive. I got the platinum trophy on PlayStation which was no quick feat. I just couldn’t stop playing. I would suggest choosing the Crusader to play as first. Super fun and has these flails that are specific weapons to his character. I had so much fun with the Akkhan armor set and the legendary flail called Fate of the Fell. Can take you well into the torment difficulty levels. Chef’s kiss of a game. I think people should really give it a chance if they like the Diablo style of game at all.
You should give Path Of Exile a shot. It's very much like Diablo, but it's free to play (just pay for cosmetics).
I only ever played diablo 2, but I had a lot of fun playing it!
Yeah, but they aren't fun if you run into cheaters. They're a blast if you play with some of your friends. There are other similar games too, so I recommend you give the whole genre a shot.
I wouldn't recommend going as far back as the first one. Diablo 2 Resurrected came out last year and is a good starting point for the series if you're thinking about trying it out. I never got into 3, but so far 4 feels really good.
Thanks! I'll look for resurrected then. If you don't mind replying, what is with the massive appeal of the game?
You have to remember that this game came out a long time ago, it had many features at the time that set it above other games.
It had a good storyline, multiplayer, maps that would change every time you logged in (multiplayer), the ability to be powerful after spending a lot of time in the game (and if you saw anyone with a rare/cool looking armor you know they worked for it, there were no lootbox mechanics where you could just pay money for it). And of course... there is no cow level ;) The skill tree allowed for tons of different abilities and combos, or you could grind away at a single skill and become godly with it.
You may not recognize the appeal to the game now just because so many of the mechanics have been copied and implemented in countless other games since then.
