Imagine Starcraft on the Switch. That could be a system seller.

Especially tabletop mode.

How would it even work? I understand turn based games, but RTS?

Hmm, if Blizzards starts to spend attention to Switch, they also should bring Hearthstone, that one so much matches the Switch.

Gonna give this a shot. Hope it's good.

The switch and diablo will be a match made in hell 😀

No release date? Hopefully it comes out before Season 15 starts.

So, are they working on Diablo 4? I also think $60 is a bit much for a 5-6 year old game, all DLC included or not.

It's the same price on PS4 and Xbone.

The Fury The Fury (on 16 August 2018)

And that excuses charging $60 for a 5 year old game? It's too much on all 3 consoles, should be no more than £25/$30 at least by now. Not £55 like it is on the PSN store, I got it for £25 in sale 3 years ago.

Diablo 3 regardlrss of its age has more replay value than majority of games at its time and present. Be nice to be cheaper but the game is packed full of value.

Mnementh The Fury (on 16 August 2018)

So, this game with all the content has enough value for some and not enough for others. Let's sales decide if the price is indeed right or too greedy. It's not like a game is a product you have to buy, otherwise you starve or so.

I'd take Diablo 3 (in its current state mind you) for 60 over most AAA titles nowadays. Will sink countless hours into this.

The Fury The Fury (on 16 August 2018)

I agree with all 3 of you, great amount of content, great game, good support but still not worth $60 after 5 years, no game should be, espcially as it's late on Switch, they should sell it for $40 to entice Switch players in.
