Diablo's Legacy

     Diablo was first released in 1997-01-06. It was fantastic. It gave everything a gamer wanted, story, gameplay, graphics, and online gameplay. That was only the beginning to one of the best game series of all time.

        In the year 2000 Diablo became bigger and better than ever! Five all-new character classes, four different, fully populated towns complete with wilderness areas, multiple dungeons, caverns, and crypts in every town for players to explore, expanded world, filled with all-new quests, weapons, spells, armor, monsters, and non-player characters, advanced combat system, incorporating class-specific fighting techniques and spells, full multiplayer support, including Internet play over Battle.net (information found on blizzard's site)! After all that, I couldn't imagine anything they could of done better.

        Once again Blizzard seemed to prove me wrong by releasing the Expansion Pack Lord of Destruction! I was so suprised how they were able to add so much to an already perfect game! Two new character classes the Assassin and the Druid, each with 30 skills/spells to call their own, a new act set in the barbarian highlands (Act 5), new monster types (including bosses and uniques), interactive environments, THOUSANDS of new weapons/armor/magical items, including class-specific quest items, new recipes for the Horadric Cube, increased stash size, and even supports 800x600 resolution.

     By April of 2001, Diablo II had become one of the most popular online games ever.

        With no Diablo III in progress (from what we know) what is going to keep one of the best game series alive. With all the new games coming out it seems to be a matter of time until Diablo is going to be extinct.

JUST GIVE US WHAT WE WANT BLIZZARD!!!
