A genre defining game that shows its age
To start, I will mention that I played this game a lot when it first came out so I am not new to this Diablo game or the franchise at all. Diablo 1 was indeed a genre defining game that gave PC gamers a taste of RPG mechanics but with a much faster and more interesting loot system at the time. Unfortunately, despite creating the Hack'n'Slash genre, Diablo 1 is very slow and boring by today's standards. Hack'n'Slash games have become faster paced in every way: movement, enemy behaviors, loot systems and character progression. If you have enjoyed more recent games like Grim Dawn, Diablo III, Torchlight II and Path of Exile you will find that Diablo I is definitely a case of "you think you want it but really you don't". I understand Diablo I was breaking new ground and that we would not have any of the above mentioned games without it. What I am saying is that there is no reason to go back to Diablo I regardless of how much you think you are going to enjoy it. The die hard Diablo fan like myself could only endure about 12 hours of this game before feeling bored. Everything about this game is boring except the music and overall atmosphere. I have given this game three stars based on my own subjective metrics. Those being: 1 star for being awesome when first released and a genre defining game. 1 star for music and atmosphere which still holds up well today. 1 star for having at nice random map and loot system that does encourage exploration.
