Are you
looking for a fun action RPG game like Diablo 2? Well, here is a list of top 5
games that are very similar to Diablo 2.
Diablo 2, by
Blizzard Entertainment is the most popular action RPG of all time. It has an engaging
story, addictive leveling system and great replay value. While the graphics are
quite outdated by now, many gamers still go back to Diablo 2 to get their
action RPG fix.
Since the
release of Diablo 2 way back in June 2000, a lot of games like Diablo have
popped up. These are referred to as Diablo clones. Some of them are really good
and play out just like Diablo while improving several core aspects of the game.
Here is a list of the best Diablo 2 clones.
5. Diablo III
Diablo III -
the most obvious game in this list, as it is a sequel to Diablo 2. However,
since it is in the same series, I am going to place this in the fifth place as
an honorable mention, as I want to focus more on the other games by different
developers.
There are
several differences between the two games and players are divided about which
one is the better Diablo game. Both have their ups and downs and I feel it's
unfair to compare them in such a way, since Diablo 3 came out 12 years later. I
recommend looking them as separate games and as such they are both really great
and definitely worth picking up.
There are 5
different character classes in the base Diablo 3 game. These are: Barbarian,
Wizard, Monk, Demon Hunter and Witch Doctor. You unlock skills for your character
as you level up and in order to enhance your skills, you have to find skill
runes, which offer various improvements to a certain skill. Visually, the game
looks excellent and features destructible environments.
Recently,
Diablo 3 received its first expansion pack: Reaper of Souls. It adds a new
character class, the Crusader, who specializes in defensive gameplay. They also
raised the level cap from 60 to 70 and added a fifth act to the game. Of course
there are also numerous new skills, runes and items added to the game.
