The gaming industry has known an astonishing development throughout the last decade. A great variety of games have become available, giving fans the option to choose, depending on their preferences, between traditional board games, skill games, mystery games, tactical games etc.
The most popular genre remains, however, the fantasy/skill type, and
Diablo game series has reached the hearts of gamers all over the world.
But, what sets "Diablo III" apart from any other games ever
made? We could call it a trendsetter, considering that it excels in all
aspects, including music, art, writing, graphics, playability and others.
It has also succeeded to set new difficulty standards. Gamers find
obtaining the status of dominator in "Diablo III" a real challenge,
describing it as far more complicated than what most of the other competitive
games involve.
It is very challenging even for the dominators of its previous two
editions, who have to develop new strategies and use all of their skills to
stay alive, while leveling-up is also a tough deal, especially for new players.
Another impressive feature of the game is the player vs. player (PvP)
mode, significantly increasing the game's dynamism. The newest and one of the
most talked about feature is the system of the dual currency auction house that
enables players to alternate the use of in-game gold with that of real world
money.
Since Blizzard does not sell anything within the game, it is up to the
worldwide gamers to control the game's economy. For example, the exchange rate
depends exclusively on how much money is introduced in the game and how players
around the world use it.
Besides skills, the game focuses also on strategy and tactics, so gamers
who depended on skills alone are about to be surprised. They have to outthink
their enemies and continuously develop new strategies in order to keep up with
the dynamics of the game.
As a result, only the very best players succeed to become dominators. In
this case, victory has nothing or very little to do with the time one spends in
front of the computer screen. One explanation would be the fact that none of
the old formulas work in the newest edition of Diablo.
Fans are thrilled too, as "Diablo III" impressed them with its
exquisite design, the creation of Jay Wilson, magically complemented by Russell
Brower's music. The original combination between the new "Diablo III"
legacy and the popular storyline make this game simply irresistible.
