I admit it, I’ve never been a Diablo fan.
Alright, Blizzard, you got me I’m all in on the hunt for Lilith inDiablo 4.
Meeting the angel Inarius did not go quite as I expected… But I wasn’t surprised.
Not my first experience with Diablo
The Diablo series is actually older than I am.
Still, Diablo 4 is not my first experience with the franchise.
I was actually first introduced to this twisted world withDiablo 3: Reaper of Souls.
The architecture and environments in Diablo 4 are just stunning.
I tried to play Diablo 3 multiple times, but it failed to hold my attention.
All-in-all, my past experiences with the Diablo franchise have been forgettable, at best.
So, what makes Diablo 4 different?
When playing Diablo 3, I felt a disconnect between the events unfolding and how those events were portrayed.
Diablo 4 is a dramatic departure from this art style, with every pixel of Sanctuary oozing detail.
This world bleeds gore and death, and it’s not for the faint of heart.
Diablo 4’s visuals and art design perfectly match the more nuanced, emotional narrative.
I can strategize and plan ahead without needing to already be an expert on Diablo.
In Diablo 3, I felt like I was always simply moving forward without rhyme or reason.
Diablo 4 feels more accessible and approachable to newcomers, while still catering to hardcore players.
With my newfound appreciation for the franchise, I hope I can also enjoy Diablo 3 in retrospect.
When I’m done with that, I’ll go back even further to Diablo 2.
June 6 can’t come soon enough.
Thanks a lot Blizzard, because my video games backlog wasn’t large enough already.

Diablo IV
The legendary franchise is back with an all-new, gore-tastic campaign and countless hours of epic content.
As a Necromancer, I was very prone to leaving countless corpses behind me (unless I used them).
I felt very strange bringing my contingent of undead soldiers to the Cathedral of Light.
I’m definitely playing as a Necromancer again, but who knows how my character will change in the full game.
