Ostensibly a pet class, the Witch Doctor casts many spells that just looked like summoning. Maybe it's just me, but the name alone implies a unique quest line or some other kind of story content to round out the mechanical additions.ĭiablo 3's existing Witch Doctor sidestepped that balance with smart art design. It doesn't help, of course, that Blizzard calls this DLC pack Rise of the Necromancer. So $15 for a single character class is a slightly tougher sell to me. Before the Necromancer, I played Diablo 3's story twice: once on PS4, and most of the way on PC. An entirely new class adds a lot of value if you play Diablo 3 not just over its five-act campaign, but for the endlessly repeatable content Blizzard is continuously adding. Diablo 3 is the certain sort of game that a certain sort of player can play for an entire "season" or tinker with for just a few hours in the excellent Adventure Mode. Additional valueĪfter a more-than-rocky launch, the Diablo 3 team has pivoted its product into a largely successful and well-loved platform. Deckard Cain still says "The Skeleton King!?" that way he does. Unlike Diablo 3's last new character, the Crusader, the Necromancer doesn't coincide with a major new expansion, storyline, or "Acts." There is new gear, much of it specific to the Necromancer, but front-to-back this is a new avenue to play existing Diablo 3, rather than "more Diablo." You still click on things in dungeons until they die. With the Rise of the Necromancer, DLC wants $15 for the new Necromancer class, plus a handful of other goodies. Which is exactly what you can do in Diablo 3, now that Blizzard has resurrected Diablo 2's Necromancer. You can't get much more "grim and decayed" than someone who literally brings the dead back to life to fight demons. In early pre-release screenshots, some saw Diablo's grim and decayed world of Sanctuary slipping down the rubbery, cartoonish path of Blizzard's own Warcraft universe. It feels like a million years ago now, but there was a time when one of the hottest topics among the video game community was over whether Diablo 3 looked too colorful. that's just a heart, y'all! reader comments 153 with
