Players will create a hero from one of five distinct classes, such as barbarian or witch doctor, each equipped with an array of spells and abilities. As these heroes adventure through rich and varied settings, unraveling an epic storyline and engaging in combat with hordes of monsters and challenging bosses, they’ll grow in experience and ability and acquire items of incredible power.
The game takes place on Sanctuary, a world of dark fantasy. Unbeknownst to most of its inhabitants, Sanctuary was saved some twenty years ago from the demonic forces of the underworld by a few brave and powerful heroes. Most of those warriors who directly faced Hell’s armies -- and were fortunate enough to survive -- went mad from their experiences. And most of the others have buried their haunted memories and pushed the horrors from their thoughts. In Diablo III, players will return to Sanctuary to confront evil in its many forms once again.
Diablo III will be a fitting sequel to Diablo II, with the easy interface, fast-paced action, and visceral gameplay that Diablo players have come to expect and enjoy. It will also include many new features that will take the Diablo action-RPG experience to the next level.
Features:
* Five powerful character classes to choose from, including the barbarian and witch doctor
* Brand-new 3D graphics engine enhanced with spectacular visual effects and Havok physics
* Numerous indoor and outdoor areas detailing new regions in the world of Sanctuary
* Interactive environments with dangerous traps and obstacles, and destructible elements
* Randomly generated worlds bolstered by scripted events for endless and dynamic gameplay
* Vast assortment of fiendish monsters, with unique attack patterns and behaviors
* New quest system and character-customization options for the ultimate action RPG experience
* Multiplayer functionality over Battle.net with support for cooperative and competitive play
Story :
Two decades have passed since the demonic denizens, Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, wandered the world of Sanctuary in a vicious rampage to shackle humanity into unholy slavery. Yet for those who battled the Prime Evils directly, the memory fades slowly and the wounds of the soul still burn.
When Deckard Cain returns to the ruins of Tristram's Cathedral seeking clues to new stirrings of evil, a comet from the heavens strikes the very ground where Diablo once entered the world. The comet carries a dark omen in its fiery being and it calls the heroes of Sanctuary to defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells – and even the failing luminaries of the High Heavens itself....

"I never catched the Diablo hype. I am mostly a person who hates to see movies or finish games more than one time, and Diablo is made for being finished over and over again.
The story is nothing special, the gameplay is nothing special and the game is all in all not that special.
Rating: Meh"

"I'll admit, I was one of the many people who was furious at Blizzard for changing the art style of Diablo. It turns out that I was angry over nothing. The thoroughly dark and creepy atmosphere of the first two games is alive and well in the third iteration. Now, it does feel a bit like deja vu playing this game, because the player will be doing essentially the same thing they were doing in the first two games. I will say however, that the proceedings have been made much more fluid. There's "

"Diablo III (2012)
Sequel to: Diablo II (2000)
Gap between games: 12 years
Was it worth the wait?: I played both Diablo games as a kid and loved them. I hear Diablo 3 is awesome and I would also love to play it one day. "
"I'm not happy about the always-online requirement, and for that matter, I don't think ANYONE is, but I deal with it. And it must be said that I deal with it BECAUSE this is a superb game. I'm highly impressed with how this game is managing to infuse story into the actual gameplay. I was impressed with how they did it in Starcraft II as well, so on a whole, I'm pleased that Blizzard is moving more in this direction."
