The game itself plays like a combination of Fate and Diablo. Taking what was the best from both of them and fusing them into a game worth playing. This is not surprising as you have both the teams of the original Diablo and D2 with Fate working together to produce a Prequel to the MMO coming out in a year and a half. This game represents both the setting of the new world as well as a polished single-player

Difficulty is quite scalable, you can jump in a jump easily and the learning curve is a "easy to learn hard to master" type.

The classes are quite distinct and play differently, however they are meant to be hybrid-able easily. For instance I have a Alchemist (mage) with great magic skills, but decent melee (269 DPS) at level 13. The classes feel like the most played Diablo 2 builds except for the fact that builds are much more looser in this game.

Story is great it ties the infinite dungeon, the side quests, and a main quest in well. There's also alot of suprises along the way.

The UI is quite clean and was meant to be simple, a little too simple for my tastes but works well all the same.

Lastly they have a modding tool that is simple to use and easy to modify the game in, thus the 20 dollar deal for this game is outstanding
