LO2: Task 1 - Game Reviews - Reviewing the reviewers (Video format)

Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Ultimate Evil Edition

Genre:
Action-oritented Dungeon Crawler (This was due to the game being controlled using a controller)

Target Audience:
People who enjoy a more action styled version of the original Diablo 3 gameplay (Mouse and Keyboard to a Controller)

Narrative:
The nephalem arrives in Survivors' Enclave which is a small outpost for survivors as the city that they were previously in has been wrought in destruction by Malphael, the Angel of Death. The narrative of Reaper of Souls is an addition to the original narrative of Diablo 3.

Characters:
Since the addition of the new story, some new characters have been implemented to help move the story continue forwards. There are also returning characters from the original storyline of Diablo 3.

Gameplay:
Fast equip system which means you can equip gear that you have picked up without having to go through ones inventory to disrupt the main gameplay. A change from the PC version is that the console version has a more zoomed in screen which means it is more difficult to keep track of dangers around the players character. Blizzard has compensated for this by givin the player the ability to roll out of danger, giving the players some breathing room whilst rolling away from danger.

Platforms:
PC and Xbox One

Personal game recommendation of the reviewer:
A game that was recommended was Path of Exile which has a similar gameplay style and theme to Diablo 3.
