While the beta only allows you to explore the game’s first act, it’s clear that Diablo 4 will encourage more exploration than Diablo 2 and even Diablo 3. Instead of being ferried from location to location, players have more agency over where they go and what they do. Instead of the randomly-generated levels found in some old Diablo games, Diablo 4‘s world is as sprawling as it is nonlinear. Speaking of the world, the game’s level design is, for the most part, an evolution of the dungeon-crawler genre. The world of Diablo 4 once again feels as if it’s barely hanging on, and every level and enemy helps get that feeling across. While Diablo 3 took a break from that aesthetic (at least until the Reaper of Souls expansion), Diablo 4 has gleefully returned to it, albeit with slightly stylized results. The franchise started as a gothic grimdark fantasy where the world feels as if it’s on the brink of the apocalypse, and fans quickly fell in love with that look. Diablo 2 had labrynths and the maps still trip people up, after 20 years, because of their complexity and randomization."Īs noted, many Diablo fans seem to agree with this take, as evident by the popularity of the post, yet the top reply is a reply in disagreement, noting that while the dungeons have some shortcomings, the atmosphere of them is incredible.Diablo 4’s World Is Dark, Massive, and Filled With Adventuresįirst off, I have to congratulate Diablo 4‘s artists.
It was the same every time, mostly a straight line, and it got stale. Dungeons were not fun or exciting to explore because there was no sense of.
I replayed a few dungeons more than once, and I am certain that the dungeons did not vary at all between playthroughs. The classics were so repayable because of their randomization. Completely new dungeons, exact same linear pathing inside. However of the nine or so dungeons that I completed – I saw the exact same layout in three of them," reads the Reddit post. "The combat and art are great, so this game has the potential to be great.
