While the game plays best in Co-op, the actual experience and options for the more social players are relatively limited. It adheres to the games avoidance of splitting the screen but making an exception for menus feels like a no brainer. The menus are still somewhat cumbersome and the fact that two players cannot interact with vendors or open their menus at the same time on console feels dated. Despite this great feature set, the game could use some quality of life tweaks. The ability to drop in and out, the freedom to play with up to four players locally on console, and the speed at which characters catch up in level if there is disparity keeps it satisfying and smooth as an experience. One of the areas where Diablo III excels is in its co-op functionality. With Gamescom coming up and Blizzcon happening in early November, we have compiled what we want to see in the next iteration of Blizzard’s next dungeon crawler, whatever form it may take. One is likely to be a Nintendo Switch port of Diablo III, but a Diablo IV or some kind of living sequel seems like an inevitability.
Recently, Blizzard announced it has multiple Diablo projects in the works. On top of this the popular Necromancer class from Diablo II returned and Blizzard rebuilt the first 16 levels of the original game within Diablo III for a limited time anniversary event. They have been dedicated to updating Diablo frequently since the expansion and the developer has delivered a steady stream of seasonal updates that add new challenges and loot. Game Informer said it was “one of the most significant turnarounds in gaming” and praised the myriad changes Blizzard brought. The loot and paragon system was completely reworked, the endgame was improved, and a fifth act was added as well as the new crusader class. It wasn’t until 2014, with the release of the first and only expansion, Reaper of Souls, that Blizzard made major changes to Diablo III.
Fans were unhappy, despite the game receiving critical acclaim. When Diablo III launched in 2012, it was plagued with issues, including server problems, an in-game auction house, a stingy legendary drop-rate, and no real endgame other than repeating the same short campaign.
