Diablo 1 with sound/music on is far more scary, i remember walking into the butcherers room and i screamed out loud when he charged me and killed me in less than a second

I loved Diablo 1, the gameplay wasn't that fun but everything else was top notch (Good music, Sound effects and art/details).

The first two Diablo games have some of the best atmosphere in any game I've ever played. The art, mood, music, and all the sounds just create an amazing setting.

Diablo 3 has a lot to live up to.

"ITS SATANIC, STOP PLAYING IT!"

and we were like "???", come to think of it, i didnt even notice all those dark imagery... my 12 year old brain was fully occupied trying to remember the loot colors lolool

Back when I was 10, it took me 3 weeks to work up the courage to face Duriel for the first time, lol. I was just so creeped out by that ominous hole in the wall.

I agree, this game is very disturbing, but I think it should be more a testament to Blizzard's incredible art design that the game still creeps people out 12 years later than it should be a problem. It's rated M for a reason, after all.

Butcher made me freak out and run around a sarcophagus hoping his pathing will get him stuck somehow while my archer chick tried to plunk away at him with arrows.




...it did not work.

diablo 1 was insane. diablo 2 never bothered me. I really think d3 will be more cartoony hack and slash rather than atmosphere and dark themes. I hope I'm wrong but I can't see activision/blizzard going for a niche market of dark RPG when they can appeal to their huge market of SC/WoW.

I noticed all of those details really...

By far Durance of Hate has the most bodies in it, sometimes there's just body upon bodies piled into a huge pile.

I'm amazed the diablo series didn't start a huge outrage like grand theft auto and doom, it's incredibly gory and full of satanic imagery, how it escaped the gaze of the media is beyond me. Might be because of the low res sprites, but still.

Best part of diablo2 for me was playing with lights off, volume cranked up with my sub on and all the effects on with an untwinked character in singler player on hardcore. The challenge + atmosphere of the game made for many memorable gaming experiences that few games can capture.

I'm just praying they don't tone it down for diablo 3, but I'm guessing they will with activision in tow. It's hard to judge based on the limited amount of media that's been released with the game so far, the art style looks the same just at a much higher resolution.

EDIT:
Upon further investigation I've found some hung corpses in the d3 screenies and recall a certain epic death animation from a boss, time to rejoice in gratuitous violence once again!

That is not gory... that's just over-saturated photoshop bullshit with no soul.

Look at THIS, butcher's block from D1... take a load of this!!

u know why D1 is scarier than D2?
You can actually DIE.
FAST.

Look at all the videos, you have to basically spam pots to even survive... but in D2? lvl 90 hammerdin just spam hammers and NOTHING could even touch him. That itself takes away so much thrill.

Diablo 1 ended my childhood.

Somewhere between getting stun-locked by goatmen, being PK'd by hackers, and chasing that goddamn advocate around over level 16, I became a man.
