games website Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls Detailed review: Save the day

At 2 o 'clock in the morning on March 25, our "Diablo 3" first expansion "Reeve of Souls" subservice opened, Blizzard has already "injected" all the content into the game itself, so at that time to update us a few patches so that we can play freely.

Whatever? Ho ho

In order to give you a first-hand review of the game, the author bought the expansion pack as early as a month ago, so the entire review was completed overnight. Here, players, try it while it's hot.

Game screen and configuration: the configuration and the original no two, the game screen precision greatly improved

Blizzard this do not know is the old problem or what, expansion can always make the picture great, admittedly we know that after all, the game engine is there, the expansion picture rarely can surpass the original.

However, the background of the entire game is much richer than the original, there are more destructible objects that can be included in the scene, and the parts that serve as the background are much richer than the previous chapters, the town can be seen, and the details of the captured Wesmachu are really careful.

One of the rare visual highlights, the battering ram of hell

However, it is a pity that I personally feel that the CG part of the expansion film is a little bit of corners, for example, the final animation of the original version is still a normal style of CG, but the expansion film still uses the sheepskin style of CG at the end.

Although the technical friends told me that these two are complicated to do, but the discerning people can see that the scroll style CG will stay on a small change of the picture for a long time, I believe that this part of the saving is definitely not a bit.

Eight original drawings to get the final CG, the script is probably a page

Game story and content: A true return to Diablo 2

The following reveal the plot, please watch carefully:

Like the rest of Blizzard's expansion packs, the Reaper of Souls game follows the original, telling the story of an angel of wisdom who transforms into an angel of death and begins to harvest humanity indiscriminately, before we go through all the trouble of blowing him to death with an arrow (sorry, I'm a witch doctor).

Although generally speaking, it expresses a rhythm of killing those who do not appear as soon as possible, but the detailed levels are found that this part of the plot is too "dead" - yes, this expansion film has filled all the pits before.

I am the final BOSS, Marcel! I'm not just a cheap product of Blizzard changing the demon Hunter model and then enlarging it!

Let's look at the main line, the appearance of the enchanter who just came up is very sudden, and then it appears that she pretends to understand everything, and the history of the hero controlled by the player is like a flow, so that the author almost thought she was pretending to be Adria, and the result is a enchanter;

By the way, said Adria can not forget her, the sister Magda somehow lived 2 chapters before we were killed, and finally can come to a haunting, but Adria is not a No. 2 BOSS appearance, no prelude nor came out to pretend, directly to the nest two words stabbed to death, in a hurry to die comparable to the first part of the BOSS Ergel.

And how to bring back the dead.

I'm Adria! I'm not Mephisto who takes jagged tentacles from his crotch to his back! Not the Queen of blades!

The CG left in the final clearance is even more confusing. After completing the clearance, Terrill will explain that the character controlled by our players may become the BOSS in the future game, which... Anyone who plays in the dark knows that the dark Wanderer, the Blood Raven, and the summoner have a good end...

The side plot is also very abrupt, Templar Cormack is a man of Weismachu, and it is normal to fill out his story here.

But the thief Linden is incredible, originally thought that Linden's brother where the king's harbor should be able to come part of the result of the Weismaki people actually took over the prisoners there, civilians do not save the first to save the prisoners makes people feel very inexplicable.

More inexplicable is why his brother's cell is modeled after Leorick's wife's cell in Chapter one...

As for the return to Diablo 2, in addition to the above, the following content is in the real sense, first of all, most of the terrain in this expansion film is a replica of Diablo 2.

If you look at the map, the western swamps look a lot like the Kurast swamps in Diablo II, Act III. The tomb where Edelia is hiding is a cold version of the tomb of Dark II Tarasha, even though the stone door of the tomb falls down.

The chaotic world of the final BOSS battle is more like the "Broken world" behind the hidden portal under the palace in Diablo II.

What's more funny is that they also deliberately put black 2 female mage interaction there, Black 2 there is black 1 mage to do the BOSS, Black 3 there is black 2 mage to do the plot, Blizzard your bridge some "traditional"...

Get started: There's no better brush game than this

Of course, we have to understand that the "Diablo" series has not been based on what plot, setting, world view and so on, and you see those old RPGS from the 1980s that rely on these things to eat have survived to the present.

Blizzard also proves in this point: brush brush is the true meaning of an RPG. You see the current players say that RPG is attributes and equipment, with these is RPG is not, the meaning of Role Play this thing who still remember, ha ha.

"This is what Diablo is all about! This is what RPGS are all about! None of this is an RPG!" "A Blizzard fan shouted to me, and it really shocked me and changed my perspective on RPGS

Blizzard found that the previous several patches of equipment reform although several times to allow players to work hard to brush the equipment into waste, forcing players to new brush.

But because players are so familiar with maps and missions, they brush each time faster than the last time, you scrap each time they brush a set of top equipment faster than the last time, the player's increasing mechanized FARM ability directly crashed the auction house, inflation.

Blizzard eventually shut down the auction house in this expansion, and made the dropping of equipment tied to the player.

It turned out that Blizzard's designers were right, after closing the auction house.

Players can not directly access the advanced equipment played by unknown players in the game, and entertain themselves in their own small world without pressure and torture, so they frequently say that "finally you can brush" such remarks. Who cares about the faster pace of grinding and the total overflow of game data?

The Grand Jewel? It's all over the place. With inflation, millions of gems from the past. Anyone who thinks back to their past and can't accept this fact is not a Blizzard fan!

And Blizzard takes into account the player's pay-to-income ratio, so in the new expansion pack added a variety of ways for players to get good equipment, reset the task of Big pineapple must drop the hidden gold is an example, the newly introduced enchantment system is a big example:

Just think how easy it is to have equipment that can be washed over and over again without exhausting brushes, as long as you have the money.

For example, if you want a weapon with 801 attack power, wash 790 once, no wash 760 again, no wash 780 again, no wash 800 again, and almost, it can be washed repeatedly why not this, continue to wash...

Reaper of the Soul This expansion also naturally brings us the brush brush that Blizzard is proud of. That's right! Blizzard has officially brought the convenience of World of Warcraft to Diablo III.

In Adventure mode, you only need to repeatedly complete certain tasks like the daily World of Warcraft to get rewards, and you can change the "brand" to gamble on D2. What is more commendable is that even the illusion system has been introduced!

As long as the player can ensure that the "left left right right right 123" at the same time - living in D2 is not finished. Yes, the Reaper did!

Like a gold outfit style but want a dark gold look? Wash ~

Innovation failure to return to the tradition, this expansion film will return the entire Diablo 3 system to Diablo 2 is rational, the player is the most no way to a high is not low is not the game to talk, Blizzard is now more than 20 years old, has passed the age of the innovative impulse to bring players fresh feeling of the young company.

More stable games, frequently out of the old brand to play emotional cards to cheat old players money is a mature game company should do, look at others EA is so live 30 years, and now is still the world's top three (not the image of the player's mind, pure assets).

Therefore, you players see such a high score of the evaluation as soon as possible to buy the game and the author together in such a good expansion inside the adventure, I really do not want to "such cheap" I a person to occupy ah.
