To tell you the truth I've never played an RPG before. However everyone in the office insisted that I play this game. So I did. From the first few levels I played I started to get addicted to this.
I started out on Single Player on warrior.
More action, less story is the way of Diablo

If you have not already noticed, Diablo is easily located within Dungeons and Dragons. This is actually a benefit for Diablo, since it has very little story going on. This RPG/action hybrid is nice and it's multiplayer community is huge. Too bad there are millions of cheaters. Just be legit and everyone else will catch on. The game offers lots of fun. Not many complaints though. They are really your choice as to if they're bad or good. Get the game if you want. Not a wasted "money".
really cool D-n-D like game

Diablo is a game that can easily entertain you for months on end. It's incredibly addictive, and you'll probably find yourself playing through it many, many, many times. You'll spend a lot of your time working the statistics of your character, seeing which items will help you the most, or what armor will help you take down a certain enemy. All in all, this is an amazing game anybody can get into, almost everyone will love, and it's one of the most addicting game of all time.
Awesome Game

This game is fantastic. I play it non-stop everyday, several hours a day. This game is incredible! The detail in it, the characters, the monsters, the stuff you can find, and everything else all add up to a superb game with good graphics, immense playability, and vever-ending fun.
The multiplayer Battlenet is great, too. Me and a friend get on it all the time and fight to defeat the forces of Darkness and Hell save the land (which appears to me to be Britain[Griswold, Ogden, Gillian, ect...])
You must try this game. You simply must. You won't be dissapointed.
5 Years ago it was a 5 star game, today it is simply quaint.

When I first played this game 5 years ago I was blown away by its reality and detail. It was a RPG brought to exceptionally detailed life. Today's games have left Diablo behind, but I still never did manage to beat it with the Sorceror character who was just too darn weak. Despite its age, and "primitive" technology, this game is still worth its low price because it can provide a couple of weeks of entertainment before it is beaten. Diablo II is definitely worth getting after this one and has lots of terrific add-ons, and the WarChest is a great deal overall.
Great game

...this is definitely one of the best games for the PC. True the sequel is better, but when this game came out almost everyone I knew jumped on it. I just bought it to see what all the fuss was about, and I found out in a second. It took me awhile to actually UNDERSTAND how the game works, and I didn't even go on the multiplayer for awhile because I couldn't understand that either. But now I do and this game is loads of fun, although cheaters in the m-p tend to ruin it sometimes.... so in the end cheaters are still a problem but not a major one. Multiplayer mode is more fun than single-player especially because you can team up on hordes of demons instead of fighting them by yourself. Not only that but players can duplicate their items for you, so you won't have to search around all time for better items like you would in single-player. The graphics and gameplay are extremely superb in this game, and the music and sound as well. ... GET THIS GAME AS WELL AS THE SECOND ONE ASAP!
fun fantasy. But, bloody, violent, and somewhat disturbing

Diablo is a sweet RPG game with a terrifing setting. In this game, you play a brave knight who goes down to the catacombs and fight evil satan-like demonic creatures. This game is not for the seven year olds or the younger. So, if you kids at home are reading this review, don't ignore this because let me tell you, this game will honestly scare you. This game is bloody because you cut off arms, and, not to mention, in one quest, you find a guy sitting in a pool of blood. It is also somewhat disturbing because of the hell-like settings after you enter the under world.
One of the best I've seen of a new game series.

The interactions between your character (you can chose between three types) and the enemies/allies is very funny and entertaining at times. I got a bit bored with having to go back and forth between levels at times -- the goat guy and his special item isn't really worth going back for. Clearly the ending of the game is set up for continuation of the basic world/plot. I was anxiously awaiting the next edition after I won this game a few times. With it had a balance of male to female characters though.
A Classic RPG!

Diablo is the first computer-based RPG that I played and by far defined what I expect in such a game. The gothic fantasy is dark and makes you feel as though you are truely fighting evil. I remember that I became very attached to my character and always wanted to develop it further. The story is decent, but what makes it is battle.net (which was introduced with this game). I spent many hours of my ninth grade year (four years ago) playing this game at night online with my friend. We would adventure for hours just killing all the evil foes in our way. It can seem repetitive and very much hack-and-slash, but still, it is very, very addictive. Especially since this game is now so [inexpensive], I would suggest it as a good buy for someone with many hours to spend developing a character.
