![]() While Blizzard Entertainment has been toying at the release of Diablo 3 on consoles, there has only ever been one game in the franchise that has seen the light of console days, the infamous Diablo on PlayStation which was published by EA in 1998. Lead Designer of Diablo 3 Jay Wilson also stated in the Polygon interview that Blizzard are still exploring console options and continuing to "expand and add onto the game." The whole team is essentially working on the next big Diablo thing," Wilson told Polygon during an interview this weekend. "A lot of that stuff will show up next year at some point."Hopefully if a console version of Diablo 3 ever makes the light of day, it will be just as feature rich as the PC version is. For now though, it's simply a Blizzard trademark Soon.

As someone who is not a fan of RPGs/Action RPGs in general, I'm still confused about this. In terms of gameplay and replayability, what did Diablo 2 have that Diablo 3 doesn't?

This.

1) The 99 Level cap was extremely hard to get to. Far longer than this paragon thing they brought in. Seeing that bar progress gave you a reason to play even when not getting upgrades, and death would cost you 10% (i think?) of your xp bar so each one was a major set back.
2) No respecing your talent tree and stat points to assign in D3. in D2 this meant you could really chase the perfect build, with not a single stat point wasted. That often meant re-rolling your character to accommodate even a small upgrade just for the sake of being perfect. Variable stats on items meant you might re-roll just because you got a better or perfect version of the same piece of gear.
3) Because you could assign stats and didn't get one base set of skills you'd roll new characters all the time. Sometimes you just find a piece of gear and think..."Man that would be cool for a fury druid, I'm going to make one!". Once you have all the classes in D3 it really feels boring. I didn't even get that far.

Then the direct relation that gold = real money killed all motivation.
