Put it this way only a handful of games have ever had genres named after them. Gold so pristine, that there was a measurable dip in the global workforce.ĭiablo 2 is so well known and held in such high regard, some people still call the genre in which it resides, Diablo-like. It took the pioneering aspects of Diablo, which in turn took its inspiration from Baldur’s Gate, which in turn absorbed the entirety of Dungeons and Dragons (tangent ends here) and made pure gold. There was one other little series that was released during this era, and that’s Diablo. These games pioneered an entire genre and, in some cases, are still best in class. We got Starcraft, Warcraft 1-3, Frozen Throne, and World of Warcraft. This period was known as the Blizzard Golden Age, and let me tell you straight, that is one of the most accurately named periods ever.
This might shock some of you younger gamers out there, but, did you know, once upon a time Blizzard wasn’t known for ruining Warcraft 3 and abusing their staff? I know, a totally ‘out there’ concept, but it’s true.
