I remember when I first played with Diablo 3 and looked in shock to found a vastly different game from what I heard about this franchise. It looked like the game changed drastically from what others had told me at that point, and I was very skeptical when I played this game as my first Diablo experience. Yes, I never played the previous 2 entries until recently, and I had to say, that probably the power of Diablo corrupted my soul, and made me hate the previous games. Yes, I agree, that it is a much more casual friendly experience, featuring many things that people hate in it, but oh how much I love it.
First off, let me tell you that this game has lots of content, and lots of classes, with very varied skills that look insanely good when you use them with the right runes. Every class supports different kind of playstyles and EVERY build you do is valiable, which makes me really grateful for the devs going this route instead of the "you put your skill points into the wrong skill? sorry pal, you will be useless until you redo them". I believe that ARPG's should support every trashy and non viable builds so at least you can finish the story mode with them.
Diablo 3's campaign consists of 4 acts + 1 bonus act which comes with this collection. The 4 main acts are great, I disliked the second act a bit, because I hate the Zoltun Kulle quests, but that is on me. The first one is probably the one that sticks with you the most, featuring very memorable bosses, that will hook you in until the end, because let me tell you, despite what others have told you, this game has a great art design. Every single person will moan about how it is cartoony and the fact that it has "colors", but have you ever looked at this game? Some of the scenery is gorgeous, the characters look great and I especially adore the enemy designs.
Sadly the Reaper of Souls act was not to my liking, as I found it very reminiscent to Diablo 2's level design, and even there is a section that is clearly inspired by a smaller section from that game.
If you ever wanted to give it a try, do it! You will 100% hooked if you do not listen to those, who hate this game for it's visuals only.
