10 Video Game Characters Who Should Probably Stay Off TikTok

From Prophet of AI


Overall, one of the best things about Diablo IV is how it looks. The color scheme is drastically different from Diablo III, which was much more colorful. Now, the dungeons are plunged into darkness just like in Diablo II, and the colors are less vibr

The intention of the Auction House in Diablo 4 news 3 was positive in its inception, but its implementation was flawed and problematic. With careful planning, a second iteration could be a hit in the game - but only time will tell if Blizzard ventures into a second attempt, or if the failure of the first Auction House was simply too harsh to ever consider trying again.

Since the removal of the Auction House in Diablo 3 , gold became a useless currency that would accumulate endlessly. It was not until the Empowerment of Greater Rifts that there was finally some form of gold sink added into the game. The problem of course is that Diablo 3 has a bot problem, and thus players have access to massive amounts of gold. To avoid this in the next game, Blizzard would need to implement a new manner of currency that could be used in the Auction House, along with a method to moderate and control the bots.


There are some TikTok videos that make you cringe, but do you know what would make you cringe the most? The fairy from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time following Link around, going "Hey! Hey! Listen! Hey! Watch out!" all the t


Redditor MonkawMonk liked the more subdued direction taken in Diablo IV , saying "I definitely dig the less flashy combat. I don’t know about you all but when I play ARPG or even an MMO I like to see what the hell I'm doing and what’s going on around me." The developers seem to also make combat less visually frantic while still keeping the spectacle factor and feeling cathar


It almost feels like the game is being turned forcefully into an MMORPG similar to Blizzard's World of Warcraft , only the difference is its dark aesthetic and a different kind of lore and world. Hopefully, the fact that the social features are there won't take away from the game as a solid solo dungeon crawling experie

This may sound radically different from what Diablo has had in the past, but there is reason to consider the possibility. Diablo 3 has suffered for years with the problem of creating engaging endgame content to keep players around for the long term. The ability to find Legendary gear is now trivial, and players are bombarded with drops, especially as higher levels of Torment are added with their increased drop rate multipliers.


Final Fantasy 16 is one of the most highly-anticipated RPG games, and is breaking new ground for the iconic series. FF16 is making changes to the summons system which will result in unique Kaiju-style battles between Eikons, a grandeur not seen in previous Final Fantasy titles. Players will be able to control Eikons and use their god-like powers to defeat their enemies, which is different from Final Fantasy 15 , where summons can only send one powerful attack before disappearing. Eikons will also have more presence in the story, with the creatures being connected to the major characters who are their Dominants. Although Dominants can tap into the power of Eikons, they have to pay a high price with each transformation shortening their lifes


Another major concern, especially with Diablo IV going open world, is the game morphing into a watered-down MMORPG. World of Warcraft is Blizzard's flagship MMO, and Diablo made single-player its crux, not tethering players to a large-scale online wo


Developers also stated that characters could perform special attacks when getting off their mounts, but if anything it just feels like an extra feature that was brought in to fluff up the game's feature l

In sum, the intent in Diablo 3 was to provide players with a safe, legitimate way to exchange in-game currency or real money for items, rather than continue to see players use unsecured, third-party websites. In that sense, the project was a success, but the Auction House also had the unintended effect of becoming the most efficient way to increase a character’s overall power level, rather than actually playing the game.


Diablo 4 was certainly this year’s worst-kept secret for BlizzCon. It's now been formally announced with a great looking cinematic trailer and gameplay footage that has revealed three of the playable classes at launch. Still, apart from a fancy trailer and a few details about the world of Sanctuary at BlizzCon’s developer panels, little has been revealed about what the game will look like. Fans are waiting with baited breath, as they've been disappointed time and time again - so, what are the issues Blizzard needs to address in Diablo 4 to ensure long-term succ

Another option would be to artificially lower the usefulness of the market by limiting the number of items that a player could wear that were purchased on the Auction House. In Diablo 3 , players could trade for everything they needed, acquiring all their armor, weapons, rings and necklaces as well as gear for their followers without ever fighting a single demon. A limitation of two to three items worn at a time by players would force players to actually play the game, but also help provide an option to locate an elusive missing set piece or two.
