Long hair has always been tied up in my personal identity since I tumbled into heavy music as a passion – a form of expression, for sure, and a marker of kindred spirits when out in the wild. "We wanted to provide as much variety as possible in terms of there being a ton of different ethnicities and hair and markings and eye colors, but there were certain things that made the class the class, and for Diablo 4 it was body type." "Body type is something we consider to be part of the class fantasy," Rod Fergusson, Diablo's head of franchise, remarked in a roundtable interview. For starters, body types are predefined – each class has two options, and they are justified non-negotiables. Let's stay on that 'forward-thinking' track for a minute, because it's worth praising Blizzard for its overall approach to character creation and customization, even if I do believe the studio could have pushed it a little further. The story is more cinematic and character-driven, while the presence of other players in the shared-world only heightens the opportunity for meet-cutes / expeditions into the catacombs of hell with a party of strangers. That's a shame, because Diablo 4 is doing its best to make you believe that there's more to its heroes than a series of statistics stuffed into Legendary armor sets. It's more robust than anything I have seen from this series before, which is certainly appreciated – although there's less depth than you might expect from an otherwise forward-thinking role-playing game. Your adventure in Diablo 4 begins with a campfire, five classes, and a light character creation toolset. And I only wish my character looked a little more like a reflection of me as I endured the Daughter of Hatred's new reign over Sanctuary.
It took fewer than 60 minutes for my Sorcerer to begin stalking hell-touched corridors in Diablo 4, and not much longer for them to be force-fed Petals of Blood in a blasphemous ritual. Not because of its music, necessarily, but because of the Prime Evil Vibes it puts out into the world – familiar to any who had the good sense to rebel while wearing a denim patch-jacket adorned with the artworks of iconic illustrators like Ed Repka, Larry Carroll, Joe Petagno, and Derek Riggs. Diablo 4 character customization showing a sorcerer with bad hairĭiablo is the most heavy metal video game series in existence.
