Feels like Diablo ..

I must say that I can understand the frustration of many players here who have for years been waiting for a successor to the extremely successful Diablo 2 and when he was finally available, the servers were completely overloaded. But I would therefore assigned the same 1 star? No!

It is true that I suffered at first among the known problems of the error messages and the faltering Server, but now this is water under the bridge.
Personally I find it covered to rate the game negatively. Well, there were problems at the beginning. So what? The Diablo 2 had also. And what are a couple of days with problems if you consider that this game will surely be the next few years, just like its predecessor, played by his outstanding gameplay of players around the world.

But now the game itself.
As a fan of the Diablo 1 hour which at the time was already in love with the simple and addictive gameplay of Diablo 1 and has not exactly spent with Diablo 2 little time I have to say I find the game very well done. The story is what Diablo has already made it ever so special and this is worthy of continued in the third part. The graphics may be one or the other to comic-like or colorful. I also had my doubts at first, but with time and any other act I have to say, it just fits perfectly and it feels like a real Diablo.

However, there are also one or the other point of criticism. The biggest is probably the most that it is not possible to play the game offline. It always requires an Internet connection.
So go with the laptop on a trip and just start playing is not just work. That's pretty bad. The new rune system takes a while until you order is warm. You just feel that you no longer have as many features as yet in Diablo 2. But If you switch the game progresses, more and more free runes, to offer a newly reconstructed this manigfaltigen options and you can order spells and skills re-define itself properly. Nevertheless, there remains the ulterior motive, that one feels somehow taken to the hand.

The struggles of the characters are powerfully staged and it's a real beauty when they lash out, so that no grass grows. It really created the feeling that the character has power and that only waits for a lot of monsters and demons run past, so that he can once in a while hew flat.

I give the game due to be remained faithful game system, the enormous replay value and the already addictive emerging Sammelwut full 5 stars.
However, I draw a star from due to lack of offline mode but represents a weighty drawback for me. Nevertheless, a full purchase recommendation!
