Story

Diablo 3: Eternal Collection thrusts players deep into the corrupt fantasy world of Sanctuary, where horrifying creatures roam among the ruined land. You begin your adventure in the town of New Tristram, where you learn of an ancient prophecy involving an invasion of Sanctuary by the Lords of Hell. In order to learn more, you must assist a young woman named Leah by rescuing her mentor, the wise and elderly Deckard Cain. Following Deckard and Leah's advice, the player must travel across Sanctuary on a quest to conquer various foes, including demons, zombies, and a varied assortment of other supernatural creatures. Diablo 3: Eternal Collection also includes the Reaper of Souls expansion, which continues the story in an all-new final act. This excellent additional chapter revolves around a powerful artifact known as the Black Soulstone, which harnesses the power of the seven Great Evils.

Gameplay

Much like the previous games in the Diablo franchise, Diablo 3 is played from an isometric perspective, with players exploring dungeons and open-world maps as they collect new loot. The game can be played either solo or with a party of four players, making it great for a group of dedicated adventurers to enjoy together. Before starting the game, players create their ideal hero by choosing from one of seven unique character classes. Each character has a completely different set of abilities, ranging from fierce close-ranged fighters to magic-wielding wizards. There are numerous difficulty settings to choose from, including a “hardcore mode”, where players lose all progress after dying once.

Regardless of the class or difficulty level you choose, Diablo 3 presents a fun and addictive gameplay loop, rewarding you with shiny new gear as you hack and slash through hordes of enemies. In addition to purchasing and selling gear, players can also earn new items through the blacksmith by collecting crafting resources. Quests are simple and straightforward, often tasking you with clearing a specific dungeon or defeating a certain amount of enemies. Although it sounds slightly repetitive, Diablo 3 never grows boring or tedious, as the constant promise of better loot keeps you engaged and excited.
