Diablo

Game history, especially the history of the development of a game, is essentially like all history everywhere -- it's the story of people.

Last week we talked about what you might expect to see in a Diablo 4 in terms of the story.

The lore of the Diablo franchise has gotten deeper and more involved with every new game, expanding from the small town of Tristram and the catacombs beneath the cathedral there to a globe-spanning adventure that led to Hell itself and finally in Diablo 3 we went to the Heavens and Pandemonium in turn. We've seen nightmarish monsters, Baal's army overwhelm the Barbarians and the destruction of the Worldstone, the siege of the Crystal Arch and the Nephalem stand triumphant against a former Archangel with the power of all seven Evils in its grasp.

Hear me out -- what if Diablo 4 dropped with entirely new classes?

When discussing Diablo 4 and what classes we'd like to see in it, the first thing to realize is that each new Diablo game has introduced new ones.

Don't get me wrong.

If you like Diablo 3 you probably already know about Season Play.

Season 13 of Diablo 3 seasonal play is coming to an end on June 3 with season 14 arriving nearly two weeks later on June 13.

Last week we talked about Imperius, the Archangel of Valor and de factor head of the Angiris Council.

One of the things I find continuously fascinating about fandom is how far particular fans will go for the things they love.
