Video Game Reviews of Diablo Battlechest [new version]
Customer Review: Worth the time and money
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an old game, and I wanted to review this for people like me that might want to play this game for the first time. First, it is hard to go wrong with a Blizzard game. Two, this is something that any rpg fan should try out. Read on if you want to hear about a great time-consuming rpg.
This game is really a lot of fun. There are seven character classes when the expansion set is applied to the game, and this means there can be a great deal of diversity in gameplay. There is more than likely a character class to suit any gamer. (I chose to play as a druid on my first play-through). After you pick a character, you get thrown right in with really no cushion to speak of.
When the game starts, you begin the first quest, and any tiny little enemy is daunting. To make matters worse, you can't restart from an old save spot. This is the first game like that that I have ever played, and it made me really think twice about battle strategy and potion usage. If you die in the game, you go back to your starting place, and you lose all your gold and the items you had equipped. If you quit right after dying, the next time you play your corpse will be next to your character. You can retrieve your items, but the gold is still lost. At the beginning I lost a whole lot of gold. If you keep playing right after dying, you can travel to find your corpse where you died and you can retrieve the gold and the items. I want to just emphasize that this game is no walk in the park.
Graphically, this was pretty good for when it was released. I have no problem with it, and the style suits the game well. The areas are interesting and the characters are all unique. I play games on a laptop, and it was nice to play a game without having to turn all the visual options to LOW. So I highly recommend this game to anyone that is playing games on an older or less powerful machine.
The contents of the battle chest make this game highly worth the money. I spent forty dollars + tax on it at gamestop and I am still happy with the purchase. Buy this on amazon though because you can save ten bucks. The guide that comes in this is totally worth it. It gives a lot of detail to the different abilities each character can learn, and it gives brief walk throughs for quests. It goes into even more detail with full lists of enemies and items and all kinds of things. If you really like to dig deep into a game, this book can help on Diablo 2.
This game has enough content to make it fun for a long time. It has free online play with friends or random people. The expansion adds an extra act into the game. The seven different characters will make for a different experience, and the individual characters can be leveled up in countless different ways. It would be pretty much impossible to find another player that made the same character as you.
A great deal of fun is in store for those with patience. I gave this a four out of five because, even though its great, I don't like: the way the game saves itself or the initial level of difficulty with no real in-game advice. I enjoy every other part of this game, and I think it is a great investment for people playing on a budget.
