Diablo 2 review




Diablo II is a dark fantasy/horror-themed hack and slash, with elements of the role playing and dungeon crawl genres. It was released for Windows and Mac OS in 2000 by Blizzard Entertainment.

The first and only problem of the game is its low-resolution graphics and a few more gameplay problems, but the gameplay part is fixable via patching it. However it gives you a better gameplay experience, its more complex and much larger game than his younger brother. The actual gameplay consists of killing monsters to gain treasure and experience points. As the game goes on your character constantly gains more and more abilities and weaponry. Early in the game swarms of weak creatures are hurled at you. The game is so easy until the end of act 1, from there here are plenty of challenging confrontations after that point in the game.More experienced players may be bored early in the game because of the lack of difficulty, but they'll certainly appreciate the additional character development options. The most significant problem with multiplayer Diablo was that it was too easy for hackers to create powerful magic items and alter character attributes and other data files, since all of the game data was stored locally, on players' hard drives.

About the characters:

  • The Amazon - both primarily use bows, and both make equal use of strength and magic. The Amazon can also use javelins and spears. Many of her defensive skills are passive in nature, especially Dodge, Avoid, and Evade
  • The Necromancer - a death-themed spell caster. Summoning skills allow him to raise skeletons, create golems, and resurrect dead monsters to fight alongside him.
  • The Barbarian - is a powerful melee fighter.He is an expert at frontline combat, able to absorb great punishment. Enough said :D
  • The Sorcerer - She can cast ice, lightning and fire spells. The strong point of the Sorceress is her damaging spells and casting speed; her weakness is her relatively low hit points and defense
  • The Paladin - His skills are split into Combat Skills, Defensive Auras, and Offensive Auras. His auras have a range of abilities, such as increasing damage, or resisting magic attacks, or boosting defense. The Paladin's auras affect all party members.
More info about the expansion coming soon, so as always "Stay awhile and listen"
