In comparison to Diablo 2, the characters are far less realistically designed in proportions.

Greys and similar dark colours predominate, but the colours are still highly saturated and stick through greatly. Graphics / Art Style - Diablo 3's art style is very Warcraft / WoW / Torchlight with a darker cooler palette. Add onto that higher difficulties and there's quite a bit of game here.


Put an extra two hours for the fourth act and we get 8-20 hours of gameplay per full game run, not including higher difficulties and the like.īetween 8-20 hours of gameplay per full game run on normal mode. Extrapolating this out, we can assume 2-6 hours of gameplay within the first act and then, presumably, the same through the other three acts giving 6-18 hours of gameplay. There's conflicting information on how long the acts are, but the beta is between a third to half of the first act and that took 1-2 hours to complete depending on how well the player played and whether or not they were rushing through it. I'm offering this first because it'll be the game that the vast majority of people coming here will have played, and will therefore offer a better counterpoint for the later games.Īmount of Content - It's been stated there'll be 4 acts, with the 4th act being shorter than the first three. The big boy of the genre, if you haven't heard of Diablo or Blizzard or Diablo 3, I have no idea how you've came to this subreddit or, in fact, how you got on the internet at all. My Personal Opinion - My personal opinion on the game. Other Features - Other things to do with the game in question. Multiplayer - How many people per party etc.Ĭustomisability of Gameplay - How you can choose difficulty etc. Singleplayer - Whether the game is capable of being played offline, online singleplayer etc.

Graphics / Art Style - I examine the art style, the graphics and the inspirations for the aforementioned.Ĭombat Flow - How modern the gameplay feels / how much it feels like D2.Ĭharacter Customisation - How much customisation can go into your character. I'll be offering comparisons on several different key points.Īmount of Content - The amount of acts and the time it takes to finish each act (not 100% accurate for obvious reasons, but you get the basic idea). I figured I could do it and educate people on what features each of them has in comparison. One of the major issues I've seen with these games is that they're all being developed within the same window of opportunity, but they don't seem very well examined compare to each other.
