The Loot 2.0 system (which affects both Diablo 3 and Reaper of Souls) is worlds better than the previous arrangement. As a whole, Adventure Mode feels like the perfect facilitator of Diablo's addictive brand of action: getting loot so you can kill monsters quicker so you can get more cool loot.Īnd there's cool loot aplenty. These dungeons provide a kind of exhilarating, unpredictable fun, where daunting challenge (an assortment of crazy hard bosses and elite packs) mixes with thrilling empowerment (new Pylon shrines that provide absurd temporary buffs like max movespeed or 400 percent damage). Topping off Adventure Mode are the Nephalem Rifts, randomized gauntlets that crank the chaos meter all the way up (in a good way). Listening to the Crusader's dialogue across all the Acts (yes, it's more than just Act 5) is a treat, and their savvy remarks sound decidedly more self-aware and relatable than the borderline-ridiculous seething of the Demon Hunter or the Wizard's haughty quips. They're empathetic without feeling soft, and have a penchant for making witty observations that genuinely made me laugh. Both the female and male Crusader voice actors are superb, portraying warriors with a deep-set loyalty to a religious faith without being overzealous or fanatical. On top of the Crusader's emboldening playstyle, they're also some of the most well-written characters in the game. As before, the instantaneous jump-in co-op makes multiplayer demon killing simple and exponentially more fun. The Crusader class plays great on a controller, with its capacity to wade into the fray, soak up tons of damage, and clobber monsters until none are left standing. If it's in the PC version-Adventure Mode, Nephalem Rifts, what have you-it's here, including up-to-date patches so you won't feel like you're missing out on future refinements. It bundles in the original game with everything from the Reaper of Souls expansion stacked on top, and brings the hack-'n'-slash fun to PS4 and Xbox One in addition to the PS3 and 360. If you were vaguely interested in the couch co-op of Diablo 3 on consoles, but held off for whatever reason, the Ultimate Evil Edition is a strong reason to finally take the plunge.
