The new work of “Diablo” occurred in the three generations and ten years later. The vacuum of power brought chaos and death. A new force shrouded the land of refuge, and the new hero was called.
It is reported that the new work will return to the dark atmosphere and bloody performance of “Dark”. In the opening CG, this appeal is well expressed, and the final scene of “Lilith” is a good one. bright.
CG is one of Blizzard’s housekeeping skills, but for game works, the game content is the key to final recognition. According to the official introduction, three new professions have been added to the game – Druid, Barbarian, and Master.
This is also the place where the official highlights in the opening ceremony. Druids will be followed by wolves, crows and other animals, and in the battle can be transformed into wolves and bears to release shock waves; barbarians can jump and hit the surrounding enemies in battle; the wizard can release frost or flame.

In order to ensure smooth gameplay, the new five major scenes can be seamlessly switched, and the open world setting also means that the narrative will not be the previous linear mode.
In addition to the above major innovations, the new work also made some interesting small changes, such as the return of the second-generation rune system, increased mounts and the ability to release skills during riding.
At the same time, “Diablo 4” will also emphasize the socialization of the players before, players can communicate, team, trade items and even PVP battles.
“Diablo 4” mount settings
Overall, the open world should be the biggest change in Diablo 4, and opening the world means non-phenomenon of narrative. This is completely different from the previous three works. For Blizzard, when faced with the old players of the “Diablo” series, you dare to do so, and you need to take a relatively large risk.
“Watching Pioneer 2”: Full Upgrade + Filling Holes
On the opening ceremony, “Watching Pioneer 2” appeared as the finale project. The first CG, the first CG, tells the story of Winston’s re-convening of watch members to Paris. Xiaomei, Winston, Hunting, Genji, Sledgehammer, Hammer, ECHO and new robots as villains all appeared.
If you summarize the new work of “Watch” in one sentence, it should be “full upgrade + fill the pit”. According to the introduction of the brother-in-law, “Watch 2” has a new PVE mode, a new hero image, a new PVP mode, a new interface, a new map, a new hero
PVE mode is one of the focuses of “Watch 2”. According to reports, there will be two important modes in the new work – the plot mode and the hero mode. In the introduction of the brother-in-law, the former is a systematic review of the story of “Watching”. The starting point is that Winston summoned the former members of “Watching”.
The latter is more similar to the adventure mode or the copy mode. Players can use a single hero to perform different tasks in more than 20 cities around the world, thus improving the hero’s proficiency.
“Watch” has a complex and broad world view and unique hero setting, but the story line has always been a hard injury to the game. Fragmentation and slower update are the places where the player is most criticized. PVE of “Watch 2” hopes to Have some improvement.
The brother-in-law said in the following sharing that the official does not want the player to use too many heroes in PVE, but there is no clear how many options will eventually be available.
For the PVE mode, Blizzard has made a lot of different changes with PVP, such as the skill upgrade system.
This system allows the player to accumulate experience and upgrade the level of skill in the PVE process, and the effect of the skill is also very different from the PVP mode, such as the sledgehammer 360 degree cracking, Tobyon continuous release Three turrets, chain reaction of hunting empty pulse bombs, etc.
In addition, Blizzard added some temporary props to the PVE mode of Watch 2, which are similar.Randomly placed on the map as if you were eating a chicken game.
In addition to PVE, Blizzard added a motorized cart mode while retaining the “Watch” PVP mode. Both sides of the battle need to compete for the control of the cart robot, and the robots push each other’s goals to each other’s destination. The party whose own target is closest to the opponent’s destination wins.
For this model, Blizzard officially launched a symmetric map for the first time, including Toronto, which is still in the process of production. In addition, there are two maps such as Rio in production.
In addition to the map, Blizzard will launch a new hero, “Sojen”, which appeared in the comics and “Havana Action” and was blown up according to the manga headquarters in the comics, Sojen It is very likely that the ghost in the black claw hidden in the watch pioneer.
At the same time, Blizzard will also adjust the hero image and light and shadow effects in “Watch 2” and adjust the UI in the game. As can be seen from the CG and the demo, the sledgehammer made more adjustments than other heroes, including hairstyles, face shapes and armor.
The brother-in-law said that “Watch 2” and “Watch” will not be independent of each other. Players who purchase “Watch 2” can inherit the skin and other data in “Watch”, and the team will continue to develop the new “Watch”. Arcade mission.
However, the most common words spoken by my brother-in-law in sharing are “these are still under development”. This not only makes the outside world worry, although the “Watch 2” is huge, but the development plan of the whole game is relatively large and complex, and the completion degree is complete. And how much balance performance is still making people
