It took me roughly 3 to 4 hours to complete Act V, which is very short especially, considering this is an expansion pack. However, this was only briefly touched upon and I wish they would have delved deeper into this lore as it was interesting. I did love how as playing with a Monk I got to learn about their Ivgorod and how the Monk society functions. I also feel like I am not spoiling much either, because those who have played Diablo 3 know the story was fair at best. This just felt like incredibly lazy story writing. Another problem I had with the story overall was why would he break open the Blackstone when he is an Angel and knows that Prime evil’s are trapped in it? The game ends by even saying then they are free to walk the earth again. Honestly, the story feels a little like an afterthought and they only gloss over Malthael’s intentions. In Act V you go through the city of Westmarch, where the Archangel Malthael goes mad and tries to kill all Nephalem using the Black Soul stone, which he stole from Tyrael possession. In addition, the Reaper of Souls adds a new Act. He or she is very powerful and gets some interesting abilities, such as the Heavenly sword. The Crusader is probably one of the best aspects of Diablo 3. Reaper of Souls adds a great new class called the Crusader, who is Strength based, using abilities similar to the Paladin in Diablo 2. So what exactly does Reaper of Souls add? However, one thing to note is that this new “Loot 2.0” system was NOT added by Reaper of Souls. It’s great to see Blizzard take such initiative to fix this game. Over my time playing the game, I have encountered about 25 legendaries still rare, but not as completely ridiculously as before. When you find your first Legendary out of crate it is pretty exciting, and harpers back to Diablo 2’s loot system. Even the Legendary drop rate has been significantly improved. Those who played before the patch know legendaries were very rare, so this would be extremely frustrating. This would often mean that before “Loot 2.0” while you might be playing a Demon Hunter a Legendary would drop and it would be for a Witch Doctor. The loot now has a much higher chance of dropping items that are based on the character you are playing as opposed to before where it was completely random. Diablo 3 feels a lot more smooth in progression and the loot is rewarding unlike the state it was in almost 2 years ago. However, I can safely say that neither are the case. Now that Blizzard has had almost 2 years to fix Diablo 3, which is arguably there most controversial game, how has it evolved and changed? Actually quite a lot.Īs someone who played Diablo 3 religiously for a while after realizing all the flaws in the loot system especially, I expected either not many changes at all, or legendaries coming out of everywhere. I like many players loved and could not wait for the sequel to Diablo 2, which was personally a childhood favorite of mine.Īfter the nostalgic factor wore off, Diablo 3 began to quickly show off all its imperfections and revealed many problems that where just underneath the surface of what could have been an incredible game. Reaper of Souls is the expansion pack to the best selling PC game of all time, Diablo 3, which was released in May 2012.
