That's why the topic of Diablo 4 microtransactions has already become a hotly contested one for fans - the perception remains that the business model tends to produce lesser versions of what games could have been, even if that's not exactly supported by the evidence of the last few years' worth of releases. According to Shely (via PCGamesN ), however, Blizzard will in fact be implementing Diablo 4 microtransactions after all, although the company plans for them to be purely cosmetic at this time. That doesn't mean plans won't change one way or the other, between no microtransactions at all or a different model, but for now, this is what Shely stated following a prompt from Quin69 during the stream about if microtransactions or subscriptions will be featu

Dreams do come true at Blizzcon, and sometimes nightmares too. Following the unbelievable landslide of announcements at the Blizzcon 2019 Opening Ceremony today , attendees had an opportunity to go one-on-one with every single title announced. Obviously, we started with Diablo 4 .


Torchlight II _ is an action RPG from 2012 that has been ported to modern systems, including the Nintendo Switch, for the first time. It's not hard to realize what game series inspired the creation of _Torchlight II, but that doesn't stop it from being a fun game that follows the tried and true tradition of slaying monsters in order to steal their possessi


Undoing the work of Inarius, Lilith altered the Worldstone, and the nephalem began to regain their immense power again. She worked diligently beneath the guise of a human to achieve her goals, only to fail at each turn. In Diablo 3, little remains of Lilith, though her writings can be located within the Pandemonium Fortr

The other thing that struck me was the incredible sound design. Bloodhoof Clan bones crunched under the force of my bear charge. My wolf swipes shredded shamans, spraying blood with deafening force. The ground shook with a bassy rumble with every boulder toss and the crack of lightning strikes was, well, shocking. I felt assaulted by the sounds of Diablo 4 .


Fans will note that, even in stills, Diablo 4 's gameplay looks a shade more dynamic than it was in Diablo 3 . Character positioning and the environment at large look like they'll both play larger roles in the experience moving forward, and the trailer hinted at that too, with scaleable walls in the environment and mounts to ride. It also looks the the world of Diablo 4 will be a diverse one, judging by the different locations already on display in the Diablo 4 screenshot d


Torchlight II has a meaty campaign that is light on story but is filled with dungeons to explore and mobs of enemies to slay. The player need not take this journey alone, as there is a four-player co-operative multiplayer mode that lets groups of adventurers play together online. The Nintendo Switch version of Torchlight II runs perfectly fine in handheld mode without any concessions in terms of graphical or performance prowess, but this version also has some minor bugs that were noticeable throughout the game, such as information not displaying correctly on the Attributes screen. The developers are promising to address these issues in a patch that will be launched shortly after Torchlight II is relea


The gameplay of Torchlight II will be familiar to anyone who has played an entry in the Diablo series. Torchlight II is never going to win any awards for innovation or originality, as the gameplay is so close to that of the Diablo 4 Dlc|Https://Diablo4Zone.Com/ series that you would be forgiven for thinking that it's a mod for Diablo III. This might sound like a criticism, but Torchlight II retains all of the addictive and fun gameplay of the series that inspired it. There is a lot of fun to be had in cleaving through hordes of monsters in a fast-paced combat environment, while slowly learning new skills and finding more powerful gear to make the player character stronger. The sheer range of foes and their different combat abilities mean that the player will need to keep switching up their combat style, as they go from facing hordes of small rat creatures that try to overwhelm them, who are followed by a lumbering giant with a deflector shield. These unique combos of enemies and abilities are a constant thorn in the player's side and working out the best way to overcome them is one of the joys of Torchlight


Just because Diablo 4 is going to be incredibly grim and bleak doesn't mean it won't look good doing it, however. That seems to be the philosophy behind Blizzard releasing Diablo 4 screenshots in 4k resolution, showcasing both gameplay and character rendering. While the scenes aren't exactly going to inspire joy in those looking for a cheery take on hell and demons, they're also beautiful representations of a game that looks like it will help assuage fears that Diablo Immortal will be a turning point in the franchise it can't come back from. Here's a look at some of the most eye-popping Diablo 4 screenshots Blizzard made availa
