finishing this game will make you feel like your soul has been sucked right out through your arsehole, but in the best possible way.
as the title suggests, diablo is the predecessor of all arpgs to come! it forever changed the landscape for rpgs, as at the time of its release, turn based rpgs were the golden standard. it's been over 20 years so there's a lot that's dated about this game (graphics and certain mechanics), yet it still oozes plenty of atmosphere with its music, voice acting, as well as setting. plus it's just really fun to play! i recommend downloading a mod to increase the movement speed, otherwise it's best played in its current state. i recommend it to all fans of rpgs, especially newer ones as it's relatively simple to get a hang of. once you've beaten it, go out and get diablo 2 lord of destruction! even after all of this time i still consider it one of the best of its kind, and sadly not many arpgs have been able to capture the essence that made it so enjoyable. even now the servers are still active, and new builds are being discovered!
