Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 206: Player Opinions

There were many new posts in the Diablo official forums.

Diablo is so fun, I cant stop at all. Theres nothing more I want to do after I get off work than doing three hours of grinding!

Yeah, this game is basically made for us that get motion sickness from 3D games. The best part is that in the later stages of the game the game isnt all that taxing on the body so you could play anything. It feels so good to watch my damage numbers go up.

Previous poster, you probably havent played for too long right? Im ready to quit the game.

Quit? Why?

Its so boring. I was one of the first to buy the game. I finished the story in two or three days, and the rest of my time spent on this game was just grinding equipment. It was quite fun to grind equipment at the start, but the satisfaction eventually fades away.

I agree, the post game is really monotonous. You just grind on the same four maps again and again. It was quite fun at the start, but once you more or less have everything you need, theres no point to grining more. Eventually youd have to grind two or three days before getting something usable and youd feel miserable if you didnt make any progress.

But I think I could play this game for a few months just grinding away.

Thats just you. How many players truly enjoy the grinding?

I think you guys are on the wrong side of the discussion. This is a single player game. Have you guys played Tale of the Sword? You also only go through the story once before being done with the game. How can you expect a singleplayer game like this to last a lifetime?

But this is a Chen Mo game. All his previous games had a pretty long lifespan. Moreover, Diablo was really fun at the start, I expect it to last me at least a year.

Geez, I dont know anymore. Lets see if Chen Mo will release a new update.

Im fine with DLCs too!

Following that discussion, more and more posts of players giving recommendations started appearing.

Is there some special game mode you can add to Diablo? Wasnt there a lot of daily quests in I Am MT and Onmyoji? Those games arent that content rich but were still quite playable after a long time. Surely you could do that too in Diablo right?

Please stop talking, dont make Chen Mo bring those terrible mechanics from pay to win games into a high quality game.

But it really feels meaningless to play Diablo now!

Its a singleplayer game, how much time do you want to spend on it.

Stop talking, previous poster. Were here trying to think of ideas. What do you guys think about a map editor like Warcraft?

I dont think much about it. They are two completely different games, theres no comparison to be had!

I think we should give Chen Mo more time. Diablo could be considered a revolutionary game that is different from other RPGs. Chen Mo must be thinking about how to extend the lifespan of the game, well just have to wait. Moreover, even if he cant solve that problem, a DLC is not a bad idea.

Geez, well just have to wait for DLCs.

In the experience store, Chang Xiuya was watching the ending cinematic after finally beating Diablo.

A new light was in the endless sky above the clouds.

In the end, it was a mortal heart, had saved two worlds from ruin, and cast down the prime evil, forever.

Diablos corpse fell in front of the camera, falling from the high heavens turning into ash before disappearing forever beneath the clouds.

The high heavens which were previously corrupted slowly regained normality as the sun shined.

A new day breaks for both angels and men.

The corruption disappeared as they were met with sunlight.

For mankinds greatest champion, the Nephalem, rose to confront the darkness that we in our pride would not face.

With orchestral music in the background, the camera panned to a long shot of the High Heavens, looking scared and solemn under the sun.

My brethren, I will take my place among you once again, but this time as a mortal.

Tyreal walked onto a set of invisible stairs.

Since justice has been met this day, I will now stand as wisdom. On behalf of those who risked all to save us.

Forever more, we shall stand together, angels and men, in the light of this glorious new dawn!

The was set on the recovered high heavens before the cinematic ended.

Chang Xiuya stretched, Geez, I finally beat the game. Im so tired. This game really isnt meant for us who arent mechanically skilled. I was so tense when I finally got to idea.

Zou Zhuo said, Dont think theres many others who tried so hard to beat the game just for the ending

Changn Xiuya yawned, It cant be helped, you have to finish the story when it comes to games the manager made. But I do have a question, why is the angel Tyreal a middle-aged black man?

Uhh, the manager had explained this previously. Its because when Tyreal transmigrated through the ozone layer, he had his face first. It wouldnt make sense to maintain a pale face after all that friction and heat

What an explanation.

But I always had a question. From the looks of it, the story of Diablo seems to have finished as the Demon Lord was slain. There cant be much to add in terms of enemies right? asked Zou Zhuo.

Chang Xiuya shook her head, Not necessarily. Who knows where that soul stone landed in that final scene. I feel likes its foreshadowing something.

Thats true. But I care more about what happened before than after. Have you realised that Diablos story was the latter half? How come the Great Evils and Baal, the Lord of destruction were only mentioned in scripts without any actual arcs? asked Zou Zhuo.

Chang Xiuya replied after some thought, Probably because the story had been written early on, but the manager only chose to use the latter half? Didnt Warcraft do the same?

Zou Zhuo nodded, Makes sense. But I think the manager should consider making use of the story that occured before this game and make a DLC or something. Based on the quality of Diablo, he could continue making money off this by releasing new classes and adding new scenes as the brand is so well known by now.

Chang Xiuya added, Yeah, perhaps even a VR game!

Zou Zhuo waved his hands, No no no. Make an Azeroth VR game first, so many of us Warcraft players are still waiting on that.

Geez, that too. The manager has so many great IPs on his hand, I hope he can start making VR games soon.

Zou Zhuo added, Yeah, it should be in the near future. The manager had so many successful works recently, he probably has enough funds to make a small VR game. Who knows what hes thinking.
