Judgement: Not Recommended
View review on Steam
For casual play the game is great, but after the campagin the game turns into annoing slug-grindfest, so if you want to 100% it, you WILL suffer.
PROS
+ Diablo 1 remake that Blizard could never accomplish :)
+ Fun gameplay
+ Many mechanics which feel cool in the campagin.
CONS
- Heavily RNG dependent
- Unbalanced cards, some are must-haves on every character, some are completely useless.
- Unskipable animations and UI that makes everything take forever
- Freeplay feels horrible and everything that felt good and nostalgic in the campagin turns ugly really fast.
- Many mechanics, which in freegame become too much to keep track of.
- There is no reason to play with the other 2 classess after unlocking them, as they do not change the gameplay in any meaningfull way, and only force you to replay the game for achievements. No new lore, no new secrets, half of the cards stays same, the new class-specific cards are all about the same just with different painting. Many class-specific spells are garbage anyway.
- There are some original achievements, sure, but most of the achievements that you will be grinding for are there just to artifically increase your playtime with mindless worthless grind, that you will be doing even after beating the whole game with all the characters, at which point, the game has overstayed its wellcome and feels extreamly boring and flustrating to play.
- While the writing in the campagin is ok and feels like a parody of Diablo 1, after playing the Rogue (a female character) I have a strong feeling that some female developer inserted herself into this character, and is constantly spewing ♥♥♥♥ about "her ex", and it feels extreamly cringe.
