Many fans are both hopeful and leery of the promised Diablo 4 and whether it’ll be a return to formula, an innovative breakthrough, or a half-handed cash grab. In any case here’s what fans hope for in the upcoming g
First released on PlayStation 3 in 2010, Dead Nation made its PS4 debut in 2014 with the Apocalypse Edition. The top down shooter has friends exploring a post-apocalyptic world full of zombies while looking for any way to survive. The game starts pretty easy, but once it gets going, hordes of zombies are thrown at players making for an exciting co-op g
Although it's what most fans wanted to see, **Diablo 4 ** was not announced at BlizzCon 2018, with mobile spinoff Diablo Immortal instead sitting as the major <a href="http://www.alivelink.org/Diablo-4-Guides-and-Tips_335537.html">Diablo 4 mounts</a> announcement at the event. The reaction was not positive , with fans dismayed that an event for Blizzard's most devoted was seen as the best place to unveil a game for a platform that has often failed to hit the m
Something that will be requested for Diablo 4 is cross play, should the title launch at the same time for consoles and PC. Allowing players to team up across different devices has been one of the key improvements that gaming has seen in recent years, no longer forcing groups of friends to have to own the same system to still play together. If Nintendo and Microsoft can work out Minecraft cross play , then surely Blizzard can do simi
Rockstar Games usually feature a bundle of unsolved mysteries and creepy easter eggs in their games. From the unknown Stranger in Red Dead Redemption to the beating heart of a city in Grand Theft Auto 4 . Venturing to the Statue of Happiness on Happiness Island, players can walk inside the statue to discover a grizzly sec
Players that roam the Mojave Wasteland might stumble upon an opened fridge, with skeletal remains inside. This skeleton holds an outfit similar to Indiana Jones, including a fedora, showing that the famed archaeologist couldn’t try the fridge trick when it came to the Atomic War of Fall
It would be interesting to see that fleshed out more heavily in Diablo 4 . Competitive matches between teams, tighter 2 vs 2 matches, tag teams, even some creative game modes. Players enjoy testing their mettle against each other and having that accounted for in Diablo 4 would give players a reason to gr
One would think that the existence of Diablo Immortal (and those other Blizzard mobile games ) will allow Diablo 4 to have a more straightforward business model. After all, removing any predatory steps is more likely to build player trust, and long-term that kind of trust is what games need to bring in new fans after an honest gaming experie
As well as this, Blizzard should also keep the heroes of the old games in mind. A new roster of playable characters would be great, but the potential to unlock the likes of the Necromancer in-game would add a new way to keep players engaged, perhaps by completing specific criteria like in Super Smash Bros. such as a certain number of hours playing or beating the game on specific difficulty lev
Following the disastrous announcement of <a href="http://ankarafal.com/author/hiltoncook5">Diablo 4 Events</a>: Immortal at BlizzCon 2018, players were somewhat relieved to learn that Diablo 4 is finally in development. Recently here at TheGamer, we discussed how the failure of the Real Money Auction House (RMAH) was a catalyst that shifted how Diablo 3 was developed, and subsequently abandoned long before its original vision was fulfilled. This included the cancellation of a second expansion called The King of the North, and the rumor of a cancelled Druid class.
While fans of the series are probably happy to hear that the next sequel is in the works, taking a good, hard look at how Blizzard has monetized its games for the long-term leaves little doubt that Diablo 4 will be anything but a constant cash grab. This is not pessimism towards the company or the series, but instead, an objective consideration of Blizzard’s other games, and how their games-as-a-service design manage to pull in revenue in a way that Diablo 3 could not.
The character should grow as a result of the player strategically planning their build, donning the right equipment, and grinding with purpose. Shredding through tough endgame enemies should feel like a reward not the default style of p
The Diablo series has gone through some interesting changes, both bad and good. Many fans consider Diablo 2 to be the highlight of the series with Diablo 3 introducing some interesting developments to the gamep
Exactly why the plot has failed to hit home is a subject of debate, but it's something that Blizzard may want to address. Diablo 3 may have been the worst example of this, with a story that attempted a much greater scope but that failed to deliver much attachment to either the characters or the sta
Working together with friends to shoot Stormtroopers, discover Maz Kanata’s castle, or do battle with the Dark Side in LEGO form alongside an epic musical score makes for a great adventure I cannot help but recommend. The game’s brilliant design to adapt events in the movie to fit perfectly in a co-operative game deserves immense praise and sitting back to view the cut-scenes you know from the movie is like re-living the first time you saw the f
