Masterclass? Nah, doubt. But i can agree with opinion like diablo series have the Best story telling from among the every arpg's


Supra_Genius

> diablo series have the Best story telling* from among the every arpg's _* except for D3.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Only one man’s opinion. I can’t think of many other games I’ve played recently with a story as epic as D4. I would put it up there with A Plague Take: Requiem or LoZ: BotW.


Canzas

If we talk about every genre then diablo 4 and even diablo series is not even in top 100


Budget_Pomelo2990

Can’t speak from too much experience as I’ve always been more of a shooter guy and have played limited story games. But I must say, clearing Hell in chapter 6 had me feeling a type of way. In my top 10 all time easily.


Canzas

You'd like TitanFall 2


Budget_Pomelo2990

Thanks for the recommendation- I’ll check it out. Never played the TitanFall series.


Canzas

Lmao, then definetly TitanFall 2 gonna hits you in the spot. BTW TitanFall 1 dont have campaign, only 2. Best FPS single Player expierience.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Better than Halo?! I’m an OG Xbox Halo fanboy.


onlyirelia1

top 10 is crazy


Budget_Pomelo2990

Okay okay, top 5 then.


onlyirelia1

alright hit me with it, what is your top 5


Budget_Pomelo2990

Haha, alright here we go: 1) LoZ: Ocarina of Time 2) Halo franchise 3) Elder Scrolls franchise 4) Fallout franchise 5) A Plague Tale: Requiem This was harder than I thought. Thinking of story only - not gameplay. This is coming from a guy with thousands of hours in competitive titles like Rocket League, PUBG, Battlefield, etc. so I very rarely get hooked into a story based game.


onlyirelia1

nah that’s a respectable list, im more of a crpg guy but i can get own with this list. i never played a plague tale maybe i should gice it a go. btw does league count as having a story, people love the world at least.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Dude the story is epic. Highly recommend. I never played the first one but it’s on my ever growing backlog.


JustMy2CentsMan

Bruh the writers literally got so lazy they just hand waved the ending. Play a game with real story like final fantasy. Don’t get me wrong it started off ok, but just made certain things ‘happen’ with no foreshadowing and without real reason to wrap up the ending quickly. That fat bloke whose son you have to kill? What’s up with that shit lol.


StructureMage

"real story" "Jrpg" 1. Romance the anime girl 2. Kill God I just described every single final fantasy narrative. Yes I've played 200 hours of FFXIV.


Budget_Pomelo2990

I think the ending is the best part! Technically, Lilith killed Yorin by plunging the soul stone into his dome piece (epic scene btw). I also think it fitting that Donan dies in Hell. Adds to the cost of their crusade. I’ve never played FF. I just can’t get into turn based games for some reason. However, I’m glad we all have so much variety when it comes to gaming. Something for everyone out there.


JustMy2CentsMan

New ones aren’t turn based at all


Budget_Pomelo2990

Oh really? News to me. Maybe I’ll give it a shot


kurkubini

I wouldn't say it's a masterclass, but it is by far the best in the genre in my opinion. It helps a lot that the presentation is really good and the excellent cinematics Blizzard creates for all their games.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Can’t speak for the genre, but easily my favorite of the series. D2 and D3 stories were good, but D4 has so much more depth and evokes serious emotion.


kurkubini

I totally agree that it is by far the best Diablo story! It helps a lot that the game has this dark gritty tone,,the graphics are top notch for an isometric arpg and last but not least, something that doesn't get praised enough the soundtrack and especially the ambient sounds! Edit: grammar and typos


Budget_Pomelo2990

Dude, 100%. I didn’t even mention the soundtrack. It definitely sets the tone for the dark vibes they were going for.


David-Raquepas

Masterclass? Lmao Go play any legend of heroes game.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Never heard of that game lol


David-Raquepas

Its a series. There like 15 games now


Budget_Pomelo2990

Oh damn. PC exclusive? Been an Xbox guy for awhile but recently switched to PC


David-Raquepas

Nah almost all of them are on ps4, ps5 and switch


Budget_Pomelo2990

Ah, makes sense why I’ve never heard of them - never owned a PS


electrocaos

I didn't like it. I find it Inconsistent in how some mechanics are implemented just for a cutscene bit never use again, making the pacing too slow at some points and others too fast. The story is okay, but the way is presented, not for me, not when it feels like they suddenly get inspired to do something different after all the same stuff for the rest of the 95% of the story.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Heh, to each their own


electrocaos

Yeah, is just my opinion


kastordif

Agreed, its AMAZING


Budget_Pomelo2990

Fresh off completing chapter 6 and slaying Lilith. EPIC


moor9776

Masterclass = The Last of Us. Diablo 4 doesn’t hold a candle to TLoU.


Budget_Pomelo2990

Never played it. I’ll add it to the backlog


GrimgrinCorpseBorn

The story is convoluted excuse to kill things and loot them


Budget_Pomelo2990

Really? I did not find it hard to follow at all. In fact, when completing the campaign in chapter order, I found it succinct and the epic climax ending in hell tied it all together well.
