Blizzard thought it would be a good idea to impose a new set of rules to people who purchase a digital copy of Diablo III online.
It's a bad (very bad) idea.
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.
All those games had to release without bugs.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Diablo III: Season 28 brings with it the Altar of Rites, an altar full of unlockable bonuses and potions that will require the gathering of tons of resources. One of things needed is the Staff of Herding, which also unlocks the famous Cow Level known as Whimsyshire. Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
Blizzard have been full of dumb decisions ever since they joined Activision
That seems weird, how are supposed to get a good taste without someone to guide them?
If I were to try it I would be lost.
Oh man am I glad I didn't buy this game... Lol
Another useles blizzard bashing article.
just be happy that there is a starter edition that offers much more than most demos.
this reminds me of the good old days, when open betas allowed us to play big parts of many games.
Blizzard did many things wrong with diablo III, but I don't see any problems here.
the same restrictions apply to wow and nobody complained about that. stfu and troll somewhere else.
