Direct feed Switch gameplay video for Diablo III: Eternal Collection
- Thread starter Dranakin
- Start date
What is up with this video? The rifts are different from what we got on PC. Stuff like molten lava randomly on floors, Rift room 3 being a butcher arena with 3 Diablos while only halfway done progressed through the rift, or Butcher in town...
I have a feeling Blizzcon is about changes coming to D3...

Me too. Switch in particular is hurting me so good this fall
These 3 games and I don't need to buy another game for the next 6 months.
And one of them is free! I put in a few hours into Warframe on PC in July, but decided to put it on hold and wait for the Switch version. It is going to take over so much of my gaming time.
Looks good but I'm more interested in the performance when I'm surrounded by 60 monsters in a rift and there's multiple explosions per second as I'm spamming them with my turrets generating dozens of fireballs per second. The start of the game running smooth is like the bare minimum, but that's not representative of the main part of Diablo 3.
Thought I was going crazy. I haven't really been active in D3 for a few seasons. I only played like 4-5 days each of the last 2 seasons, but I've yet to see a rift look like what was in the video.
probably just a custom rift they've thrown together for demo purposes

Likewise, since I play my Switch 95% handheld. I remember someone saying that the only difference is the resolution drop between undocked and docked.
I hope people don't keep comparing the console versions to the PC version - they've always been two completely different beasts. Enemy placement and density have always been different in either case due to different control methods and the slightly more zoomed in view for the console versions.
This video looks pretty standard for a low-level rift to be honest, the characters don't even have any paragon levels. Wait until we start seeing higher GRift stuff before we get the pitchforks out.
Also, Blizzard already answered the question on mob density ages ago:

EDIT -
Here's a video from Digital Foundry about the undocked performance from what looks like that same demo, playing with four players, looks pretty legit in handheld mode. Absolutely cannot wait! ;3

God Blizzard makes such good ass video games
This'll be my third purchase of D3 w/ all the expansion stuff.
And i've put in at least 100 hrs every time. One of the most satisfying treadmills in gaming for sure. And perfect for Switch.

This was already a lock for me ever since the rumours started circulating (that infamous light switch tweet). It's been consistently my most played game both this generation on PS4 and the last on PS3 :V now that it's portable, those long plane and train journeys, even those long lunch breaks, will have me grinding forever...
Looks good!
Yeah, I've bought D3 on PC and PS4, having barely played either... but am considering it on Switch as it's the platform I'm likely to actually play it on for the long haul, due to that handheld convenience.
Im ready, come on lets go!!! This wait is crazy....
Wait is that the icon?
Neiteio time to bring the thread back
So you can play offline characters OR online only characters.
The latter has the same hard-to-hackness that the PC one has.
It'll work like the other console versions - basically offline characters that can be taken online, or you can take part in online-only seasons.
So yeah, you can imagine the reason why Blizzard are hesitant to allow players to move their characters around, thanks to console hacking.
EDIT- beaten :V
So we get the Ganondorf stuff, but any word on the other items consoles usually got?
