Diablo 3 Gameplay
Diablo III is an action-packed, isometric action role-playing game that follows in the footsteps of its predecessors, Diablo and Diablo II. Players must take on the role of a heroic character in order to save the world of Sanctuary from the forces of Hell. As with traditional RPGs, players can choose a character class, level up, and acquire equipment to increase their power. The quality and attributes of equipment are randomized, with higher-quality items providing additional bonuses such as increased damage, attribute boosts, or extra sockets for gems. Magic, rare, and legendary items have increasing degrees of randomness and more properties, with set items providing additional bonuses if multiple pieces are equipped. Higher-level monsters tend to drop better equipment with higher stats and bonuses.
The game uses a custom 3D engine with destructible environments and in-game physics. Multiplayer games are available through Blizzard’s Battle.net service, and players can drop in and out of co-operative sessions. Diablo III also features an enhanced quest system, random level and encounter generators, and health orbs that drop from enemies to replace the need for a potion bar. Skill runes are a new feature that modifies skills as the player levels up, providing options for enhancing and changing gameplay. Players can assign skills to quick bar buttons, with mouse buttons still being used for specific attacks. Diablo III requires a constant internet connection due to DRM policies, even for single-player games.
Diablo 3 Plot
The events of the game take place in Sanctuary, a dark fantasy world, twenty years after the story of Diablo II. Deckard Cain and his ward Leah are investigating a prophecy in Tristram Cathedral when a mysterious star falls from the sky and creates a deep crater, causing Cain to disappear. The player’s character, the Nephalem, arrives in New Tristram to investigate and helps rescue Cain, discovering that they must defeat the Skeleton King to access the fallen star. Along the way, they encounter various characters and battle against demons in service to the Lords of Hell.
The Nephalem and their allies eventually reach the city of Caldeum, where they track down and defeat Maghda, a servant of Belial, the Lord of Lies. They also rescue Leah’s mother, Adria, and travel to Bastion’s Keep to fight against Azmodan’s army. After defeating Azmodan, they discover that Adria has been serving Diablo and has used the Black Soulstone to resurrect him. Diablo becomes the Prime Evil and attacks the High Heavens.
The Nephalem and Tyrael arrive in the High Heavens to find it already under attack. They meet various Aspects, including Auriel and Itherael, who guide them in their mission to close the Hell Rifts and stop Diablo from reaching the Crystal Arch. Despite facing opposition from Imperius and Izual, they ultimately defeat Diablo and his physical form is destroyed. Tyrael decides to become the Aspect of Wisdom and work towards uniting angels and humans. The game ends with the Black Soulstone falling from the High Heavens, still intact.
