When
a game comes from Blizzard Entertainment you can be rest
assured
it will be like no other game on the market at the time.
Diablo
2 is continuing that tradition. With unique characters,
an even
more unique storyline, beautifully orchestrated music, and
an
extensively addictive multiplayer mode, the game is one
of Blizzard's
crowning achievements.
The
game's story sets you into a medieval fantasy world of Sanctuary.
As you take the role of either one out of five characters,
each of whom has different spells and attack abilities.
When
the game begins you are set off on many dangerous quests
to battle demons from the underworld, and
eventually you must defeat
the lords of underworld. (the main baddie who's causing
most
of the trouble is the lord of destruction Diablo) As you
progress
through the game you will encounter many characters
along
the way, such as the lecherous merchant Gheed, to the
incredibly
cool Archangel Tyreal.
The
gameplay goes way past just point and click attacks, you
have to dodge assaults as you also cast spells to wipe out
you enemies.
One neat feature is that your tactics have to change
on the basis of which character you want to
use. For example if
you want your Paladin to be an incredible melee fighter
you must
use certain skills in conjunction with other one's, such
as having
sacrifice as your main attack while having the might
ability on, this makes your attacks insanely
powerful.
The
Game is great that's the bottom line. You MUST buy
this game!
You'll love it from it's amazing beginning to it's shocking
conclusion.
Although some may gripe about the ending which
has
you buying the add-on to get the entire story, but to me
it was one of the aspects that makes this
game great. So don't
hesitate GO GET THIS GAME!
