I know it’s hard to believe, especially for the fans who are waiting for it for 12 years, but Diablo 3 is finally here. But why was this buzz created around a simple PC game? I will try to make things more clear in the following article.
In 1996 Blizzard North was opening the gates of hell. Figuratively, of course, but this was the moment when the first game of the Diablo franchise saw the light of day.
A hack and slash with Gothic influences that was inviting you to stop Diablo, Lord of Terror and save Tristram town and the whole world from the claws of darkness. Diablo became a hit almost instantly, thanks to the sensational gameplay, that kept you in front of the computer for hours, but also because of the large variety of items and the angel and demos story. The gamers cant forget characters like Deckard Cain, Wirt the Peg-Legged Boy, Butcher or Archbishop Lazarus.
