"Pioneer" was the word I was looking for in the video. Diablo was the pioneer of ARPGs. It can't be denied and fuck you.

Tbh, games like Fallout, Arcanum, and Planescape were actually awful compared to Diablo. The gameplay was awful and they were't even a lightyear near Diablo's storytelling
Storytelling? In Diablo?
Ok, you lost me there.
Here's the story: "Blah, blah, ancient forces of evil led by Diablo are up to no good, started making trouble in the neighborhood, something, something, choose a heroic figure between a Rogue, a Mage and a Fighter/Paladin, go kill a fuck ton of evil creatures in dungeons and catacombs with a sinister atmosphere and dope soundtrack, then waste Diablo himself".

Please don't leave, nigger. Your bizarre antics are funny.


This shit is like character dialogue from New Vegas Bounties mod series. The author of these mods is also called Some Guy (2000) and i think he had depression and drinking problems as well.

but seriously saying you haven’t played BG1/2 and if you did they’d be as shit as Fallout 1/2 AND that diablo is better than any of these games, you have to be pretty retarded.

Diablo is a loot game that works the same a gacha game might work, dopamine trigger through random loot. There’s no story, no sophistication, it’s just a fucking skinner box.

You gotta look at it from my perspective. I'm a diehard horror genre fan and Diablo 1 nailed it perfectly. Like that, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill were the masters of that shit at the time.

I've had small interest in Fallout because I was watching Mad Max long before it. BG shit I can't explain.

How is Diablo or Resident Evil a horror? What the fuck? What is your favorite movie horror? John Wick? Terminator? Matrix? What about books? Lolita? Memoirs of a Geisha?

The Thing, The Shining, Evil Dead 2. You don't know what horror is.

Diablo and the action RE games are horror-themed, at least. Although, I have never, ever heard someone put Diablo into the same category as the original Resident Evil and Silent Hill games.

SDG I'd recommend checking out Sacred 1 Gold if you like Diablo. It's it own thing, a little uglier and older title than Diablo 4, also not satanic, but I really dig it. It had also horse riding before Diablo 4 was created!
I was recently playing both D2 and Sacred, and the difference is that in Diablo you have to do boss/dungeon runs for gear whereas in Sacred you have elites walking everywhere in the open world so you can just mindlessly grind while listening to podcasts or audiobooks. I'm level 80+ on Platinum difficulty and was leveling and gearing my Seraphim for the final difficulty, but got bored and switched to puzzle games, I felt my brain was slowly degrading from the grind, I'll come back later and finish it up eventually tho.

That's the main difference. Sacred generally just ripped Diablo off while switching the formula up a bit by making it open world. The game design is pretty shit tho compared to D2, lots of useless stats on gear and the controls suck. Good "offline MMO" for mindless grind for gear/xp tho.
