Those who have played Diablo II surely were frantic when the third installment was announced. It immediately received critical acclaim and positive nods from fans for its gorgeous graphics and visual effects, improvements in gameplay mechanics, and new character classes while still retaining the classic feel of the previous games.

The game being so highly anticipated, it set a new record for the fastest-selling PC game with over 3.5 million copies sold in just the first 24 hours. Hordes of gamers even tried to play at the same time upon its release, causing severe server loads.

Twenty years after the events of Diablo II, Deckard Cain and Leah are found in Tristram Cathedral investigating ancient texts about a menacing prophecy looming the world. Suddenly, a star fell from the sky, striking the Cathedral and creating an endlessly deep crater into which Deckard Cain disappears. You arrive at the town of New Tristram to investigate the incident and help Leah search for Cain.

On your way, you discover more about the mystery surrounding the recent events that happened.

The battle of good and evil. Diablo and Imperius sorting things out.

Praised for its stunning graphics, looting and character creation are still the best suits of the game. These are the things that made this hack-and-slash RPG so addictive and infinitely replayable. The PvP mode also added more value to the game, allowing players to show what they’re made of.

Its expansion, Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, also received high regards for increasing the level cap and the addition of a new hero class called Crusader.

Words aren’t enough to describe how fun this game is. You really just need just try it out, maybe for a day, and see for yourself what made it a must-play PC game.
