Diablo + Hellfire

Still better than Diablo 3

Can't belive it! I finally play THE DIABLO on GOG platform! Great job ,guys! I wanna play HELLFIRE too, please!!

Diablo is a timeless classic masterpiece. Yes, it's a little bit clunky, but still fun to play even today - the atmosphere is out of this world, the music is bonechilling, and the lore is interesting. It spawned a whole new genre of games, and a sequel, which is one of the best games ever made. If you somehow missed this, do yourself a favour, and play it.

I was absolutely in shock when the news was posted on Facebook. This is literally the last game I ever expected to get released from Blizzard. Let me get this out of the way first, because some jerks on here don't understand what a review is. This game is absolutely a 5/5. There is a special place in Hell for people who give this game a lower score, simply because they feel the price is too high. Please, for all that is holy GOG, start editing these reviews. Is this game worth $9.99? Yes, yes it is. What are you getting for this price? Three completely unique characters. Randomized quests and dungeons, so you will never play the game the same twice. Even today, that's rare in video games. This offers hundreds of hours of gameplay. If you get bored, just download one of the dozens of mods available. This is arguably tied with Diablo 2 for being the best in the franchise. It is definitely the most graphic and scariest compared to the sequel, and certainly better than Diablo 3 by far. The voice acting is superb for its age, and is still impressive today. The story is intricate and fascinating. The dark Gothic style helps to outweigh the admittedly relatively dated graphics. The monsters are unique and terrifying in a way that not even the sequels could match. Compared to the sequels, terrain and positioning is much more important, i.e strategic choke holds such as doorways and rivers. Again, even Diablo 2 didn't have as much focus on this. The Butcher is still one of the scariest bosses in video game history. He was almost comedic in Diablo 3: "Vegetables bad, meat good!" I'm not even kidding. I was laughing my ass off while fighting him, instead of being terrified out of my wits. Buy this game. Period. It is absolutely worth the price tag, and is one of Blizzard's greatest accomplishments. Buy this game, if only to learn why people are so disappointed in Blizzard's later works. You won't regret it.

Stay a while and listen... I first played Diablo on the PlayStation. Heresy? Perhaps. I spent countless hours delving into the catacombs and caverns beneath the blighted monastery on the edge of Tristram. I hung out with Deckard Cain, talked shop with Griswold the blacksmith, and showed Wirt his leg once or twice to get a rise out of him. Seriously, though, this game provides one of the all time great hack and slash experiences. It offers the chance to play as one of three character classes (Warrior, Rogue, or Sorcerer) and explore a town of interesting characters who aid you on your quest through an incredibly deep and hellish dungeon. Bear in mind before you purchase the game that you are playing a dungeon crawler from the mid-90’s. In many ways it feels like it. The pacing can be annoying at times, and some of the audio for the dialogue might cause your frontal lobe to atrophy. There are some options you can tweak to diminish some of the annoyances, but in the end, playing this game today feels like you’re playing a bit of an artifact. Regardless of aged features or minor camp or the year this game was made, it is again one of the greatest dungeon crawler, hack and slash games you’ll ever play. If you can’t see past the forgivable flaws then you’re missing out on a wonderful gaming experience.
