Within my first hour I was already doing Void Ray impressions (Starcraft references ran rampant in my playthrough) and mowing down zombies with my icy death beam. The game is very inviting anyway, even without that niche nostalgia, by giving you powerful, fun, new ability after powerful, fun, new ability very early on. The combination of clicking to move, the perspective and the click-to-attack combat system immediately reminded me of my high school days playing Runescape (but obviously better looking) and I felt somewhat at home. I embarked with my ex-firebending Wizard not really knowing what to expect. She seeks out the meteor because she's fed up with being the most talented magician in her entire country and wants a new challenge, she's always making sassy remarks and is voiced by the voice actor behind Azula from Avatar: The Last Airbender! So in my book she was the perfect class for me. I played as the female Wizard and as a character she's very full of herself. Bar none!Each of the 5 classes, and each gender for that class, have their own voice actor and own dialogue, it's all very smartly done. You play as a character in one of 5 classes who sees this meteor fall and is drawn to it and its obvious potential for adventure. The story follows Deckard Cain (apparently a character from the older Diablo games) as a weird meteor falls from the sky. If there's some way you don't know how a Diablo game works, it's rather simple: You view the game from a semi-top down perspective, you move and attack enemies by clicking your mouse and using buttons 1-4 to use specific attacks you've mapped to those buttons and you also have access to some passive skills. In Diablo 3 I found a mediocre storyline poorly told, basic graphics and, well, a whole lot of magic. In Max Payne 3 I found a mediocre storyline well told, nice graphics and pretty much poo everything else. Much like with Max Payne 3, Diablo 3 was a sequel to games that I'd never played but was, obviously, well aware of.
