In 1997 (technically on December 31, 1996!). Blizzard North released Diablo, from the creative vision of the game -David Brevik. And 28 years later the game still holds up. The game features randomized dungeons, loot, 3 classes with their own skill trees and a dark story. This formula is still very much popular to this day. Diablo was the first. In today’s episode we take a look at the game that birthed an entire genre – the Action Role Playing Game.
