Putting Diablo 3 on GOG (or any storefront that doesn't require me to download Battle.net and/or use some always online DRM) would be fantastic. I've never experienced this game before and a big reason is because I don't want to deal with the hassle.
So . . . I want this game on GOG as much as the next person, but how are you gonna give it an OFFLINE mode? I heard the only way to do it is to reverse engineer, but I have no idea why. Did Blizzard lose the source code to their own game or something?
Anyway, if somehow Diablo 3 can get an offline version with Reaper of Souls too, that would be amazing and the game could be preserved for the future!
For me, this game marked the ever so sad transition from the heights of Diablo II, to the live-service entities that became Diablo III and IV.
Despite being a huge fan of Diablo I and II, I couldn't bring myself to financially support the always-online single-player model that was being forced upon us. We were told that this was necessary to combat piracy, but felt like a kick in the teeth to those of us who had happily supported Blizzard in the past. The later inclusion of in-game monetization would place considerable doubt on the supposed motivations to go always-online, but it made little difference to me.
Make a single player game that's good enough to buy, treat your customers with respect (staff, too, would be nice), let it be played offline, from a storefront I like and trust, and I'll be glad to buy from Blizzard again.
Diablo II and it's expansion, Throne of Bhaal, were the last Blizzard games I ever purchased, 24 years ago (GOG re-releases notwithstanding). I'll wait for as long as it takes. In the meantime, plenty of other studios I'm happy to buy from.
Such a fun game! I used to play all the time on both PS3 and PS4, and still play on Switch. Got introduced to it back in 2014, and to this day, Demon Hunter with wolf pack armor, acid rapid fire, rapid fire bolas, and wolf companion is one of my favorite builds of any of the games. I even made a season druid in a similar vain as an homage to that build I had years ago.
will never forget the absolute disappointment i felt in middle school buying the battle chest at retail for my laptop. only for it to not work at all because i lived in a location with little to no internet. eventually i did play the console versions offline, but making a offline version for the pc itself would be like righting a grievous wrong 14 year old me felt so many moons ago
just tried a short period of a mission when I visited my friend, I really want to play the whole games, need to know the battle systems and the whole stories, and the characters
this game is absolutely awful tbh. Diablo 3 has completely removed itself from the series roots and is generally just hot garbage. Diablo 1 is the best of the aesthetic, and Diablo 2 is the best of the gameplay.
for preservation this would be nice. Be aware however, that it was made for gamepads that don't exist anymore.
Wioth your standard XBox or Ps gamepad you probably won't be able to run diagonally.
And it will react badly to analog triggers when you try to remap buttons.
Best woudl be to have a early 2000s gamepad spare.
The savegame can be imported to Lego Star Wars 2 btw, unlocking all characters and vehicles that you collected during this game.
"The Complete Saga" clearly contains the better version of this game, but it misses some unlockables and the hub.
Demon's SoulsA third-person action RPG with cooperative and competitive multiplayer elements in which the player enters the kingdom of Boletaria as it is being ravaged by a fog that spawns murderous demons. The player has to hunt down the arch demons situated in five disparate areas within the kingdom and partake in punishing combat to reach the Old One, the vengeful being that brought the fog to Boletaria.Open world Action Fantasy Sandbox
DestinyBungie has emphasized that the universe of Destiny will be "alive". Events may happen in-game that are not necessarily controlled or planned by the developer, which will help to create a dynamic developing experience for Bungie and a dynamic playing experience for gamers. The game's style has been described a first-person shooter that will incorporate massively multiplayer online game (MMO) elements, but Bungie has avoided defining Destiny as a traditional MMO game. Instead, the game has been referred to as a "shared-world shooter," as it lacks many of the characteristics of a traditional MMO game. For instance, rather than players being able to see and interact with all other players in the game or on a particular server—as is the case in many conventional MMO games—Destiny will include on-the-fly matchmaking that will allow players to see and interact only with other players with whom they are "matched" by the game.
Destiny will incorporate a new game engine that allows global illuminations and real-time dynamic lighting to occur together. An innovation in Bungie's "hopper" technology, which has been the backbone for Halo's matchmaking system, will allow better player matchmaking in order to create a more natural experience in either cooperative or competitive multiplayer modes.Action Warfare Science fiction
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
