Diablo had great lighting effects. In the catacombs you’d see a flash of movement in the dark, before being attacked by a goat demon who had used the darkness to get around behind you. Diablo II seemed cartoonish in comparison when it came out.
Yes! I was trying to explain this at a PoE 2 launch party but no one got it. I know Diablo is likely dated in a lot of ways, but unlike with other entries, I remember actually getting scared while playing it. Like it actually felt like overcoming an ordeal.
“Every monster is the Butcher”
You play as the butcher
Fresh meat!
A Butcher that stalked you from the shadows like a kobold would be terrifying
