The four main characters include Devinder Crousley, who is armed with his own inventions, Layla Ellison, who has telekinetic abilities, Remi de la Rosa, who has a robot companion, and Jacob Boyer, who has a vampiric eye and a spectral raven. In both single-player and co-op playthroughs, players can experience their unique abilities and upgrade them to suit their st

Luckily for those that weren’t a fan of Jar Jar Binks, they could find the goofy Gungan frozen in carbonite in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed , a now Star Wars Legends game that featured Starkiller, Darth Vader’s secret Sith apprentice . It’s a shame there’s no way to unfreeze Jar Jar and bring him along for the adventu

Reading the above ideas about Diablo 4 may come off as pessimistic, but again, the point is to consider how a design for the next game would look with a revenue model that would satisfy Blizzard’s expectations, and that of its shareholders. Gone are the days of putting out a game with a single DLC pack and calling it a day. Blizzard, and many others, seek to produce games as a service, and Diablo 3 simply did not cut it. Let us cross our fingers and hope for the best, that Diablo 4 both meets our expectations and Blizzard’s – though it’s hard to imagine such an ideal landing spot for the next game.

Finding a compromise or even a hybrid of the two would be a great way to satisfy the fan base. Skill trees that allow players to pick individual skills or pick an automatic template that makes the choices for them, even introducing the skill trees again but with a respec/reset option would be a great middle ground for f

The statue is alive. Held together by chains and metals, the heart of the statue beats slowly, and Nico Belic can do nothing but watch this dark secret. It’s certainly creepy to see a heart larger than a car, and even creepier still that it lies within the iconic Liberty City statue. Yet, it’s just one of many unexplained and mysterious easter eggs in Grand Theft Auto

Cosmetic items are also an obvious place where Blizzard could be making money. It’s honestly rather surprising to see that so much is given away freely in Diablo 3 , including wings, pets, pendants, and more.

World of Warcraft is in a unique position to have a monthly subscription still serve as a viable model after failing so many other MMOs. Their expansions also demand purchase and serves to literally gate characters in old content and ten levels lower.

The Witcher series is made up of three games, each following the adventures of Geralt of Rivia, a gruff monster hunter with supernatural powers. Choices made by players impact the world as Geralt battles through monsters and political intrigue. The Witcher games are based on books, novels by Polish author Andrzej Sapkow

When thinking about some of the best features in the Diablo franchise, challenge is one of the main fan favorites. There’s nothing more rewarding than encountering an extremely terrifying boss, only to beat it down with hard w

When it comes to some of the more useless features announced for the game, mounts definitely feel like one of them. Although the world of Diablo 4 strategy IV is supposedly pretty big and mounts would, therefore, make traveling easier, they just seem like another superficial, cosmetic, addit

Scheduled to release in 2023, Minecraft Legends is an action strategy game that takes place within the Minecraft Universe. Created by both Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive, the game follows the customizable protagonist as they fight to save the Overworld from the evil piglins and their Nether corrupt

Releasing on July 19, As Dusk Falls is an interactive drama adventure game that utilizes a unique art-style that combines both still images and animation. Although objects such as cars are animated normally, each character’s movements are portrayed as multiple still-images that are meant to mimic graphic novels. Though potential players are divided about this design choice, it’s obvious that this style has made the game stand out at le

The grind for loot is only worthwhile if the loot is good. Diablo 3 introduced an interesting concept to have players grind for more and more personal power, but this had the effect of making the items less interesting or import

Instead of players grinding for that powerful sickle for their necromancers they were wielding random spears or axes because it boosted their overall power. Introducing powerful items that shakeup the gameplay or interesting synergies would put the grind back on items and less on Paragon lev

Using the mystical Shadow Merge ability, Ayana can literally become one with the shadows, which can help her hide, sneak up on enemies, and travel to places that would normally be impossible. During the journey, players can decide whether to kill or avoid enemies and can use items to create various gadg

Blizzard’s current business model is to create games that demand an infusion of cash from their consumers for them to remain relevant in the content of the game, to for the company to justify its developmental resources. Take a brief look at the 2018 earnings below. See a pattern here? All of these games, including those of Activision, and Candy Crush, are always bringing in constant revenue.
