    It was a revolutionary game, but I don't like it, only click&click to kill enemies with no history or special concepts, no enough variation, only push down floor by floor

    I really liked Diablo 1 when I first played it. A dark fantasy game with challenging gameplay and nice art? Sign me in. Nowadays FromSoftware is doing it better, but the OG Diablo 1 have its place in my memories.

    Well-crafted playground. Simple yet charming. At that time, Blizzard was completely different from what it is now...

    Diablo 1 is still great game but needs mods like DevilutionX. It's superb when playing with The Hell 2 mod.

    This 10/10 rating is obviously based on the graphics of 1996. But it is one of the best games of all time if not the best in this genre.

    An absolutely amazing game.
    If you pick this up in 2023, and you should, then play it with the mod called The Hell for the best experience.

    A masterpiece that made me feel scared while playing games late at night. I was 20 years old.

    Please all hail before the mighty Diablo franchise. This game created a term for average gamer: "Diablo like". Possibly ancestor of hack and slash ARPG.

    Игра интересная только на определенных классах, и до определенного уровня подземелья. Дальше это рутина.

    It is pretty good, old but good, nothing more to say really, it is like diablo 2 just older and less fun.

    Базированная игра основавшая жанр диаблоид. Всё ещё играется увлекательно и выглядит неплохо

    What's there to say!? It's THE ledgenday Diablo, from the time when Blizzard was the best game studio in the world. The stuff that Sweet childhood memmories are made from.

    Atmosphere, music, voice acting, progression pacing, this game is a masterclass in all of the above. Only the gameplay and abilities/spells show their age a little, but if you go into it expecting an old school classic arpg that defined the genre, you will not be disappointed.

    Very cool game, cool spooky atmosphere. The game is fun to play. It's had a great impact on the industry, so you should check it out.

    My first experience with Diablo 1 was on playstation and it was the worst thing that happened to me...
    I'm a Blizzard fan (not anymore after WoW SL release) but this game was such a garbanzo back then.

    I bet it would be different if played on PC.

    Grew up on this game. Sure it has old mechanics, and it feels somewhat clunky compared to today's (2022) games... but this game is still a hardcore gem of an adventure. If you don't mind the old school game once in a while, you should try it.

    This game launched a new series. A new genre.

    I played it way later than I should have. But the RPG and grindy elements really got me.

    The start of my game life literally. My first game ever. And I played it two months straight until I realized I played the demo only. Still better than any other game at that time.

    Still a go-to game. If I could have the hours I've spent playing this game back, I wouldn't want them. I am the rogue. I'm no milk maid.

    The legendary game is the progenitor of the genre created by those Blizzards who created masterpieces

    The first of its kind. Whoever digged this at 86, found a goldmine. A designer must always look back on what has gone well with this game to find answer about the current age.

    piece of history and the best diablo... Must play game... Diablo 2 sometimes is boring but Diablo 1 is a jewel.

    The nostalgic feeling I get form thinking about this RTS trend setter for so many games. Made me start getting into the genre I will never leave. Just epic.

    A feast of atmospheric entertainment. While it might tire after a while, you'll likely get your money's worth long before that point, and moreso if you venture into the chaos that is Battle.net, where life takes on a whole new meaning and the hours slip mysteriously away. Diablo is a landmark game.
  2. About as close to Hell as you're going to get - whether you believe in it or not. Everything about this game just rules and it will blow you away. The gameplay is the easiest I've ever come across in an RPG which is just fantastic.
  3. If you're looking for an action RPG with medieval roots and influences, dark and moody settings, and unique game play, then run to your nearest retailer and pick up a copy of Diablo!
