In addition to dealing damage and gathering Essence, Decompose periodically summons skeletons for the duration of its damaging effect, acting as a twofold source of damage in addition to gathering energy to lead into other abilities. The other confirmed Darkness skill is called Blight, launching a ball of darkness that detonates after contacting an enemy or after a set amount of time; after doing so, it deals an initial burst of damage while leaving an area of corrupted ground that deals damage over time to enemies standing in it. These skills provide a great baseline for the new playstyle and a hint as to the levels of synergy that could be reached by combining Darkness skills with other facets of the Necromancer. Though the Necromancer's inclusion in Diablo 4 might've been predictable , innovations such as Darkness prove that the developers are far from playing it safe by reusing old cont

Diablo 4 boasts a few other key features as well, such as an open world that is explorable and changing. Players can customize their characters through Paragon Boards, skills, talents, and cosmetics. Story-wise, one big change is that the main antagonist isn't Diablo. Instead, Lilith, daughter of Mephisto, is returning to Sanctuary after being trapped in exile.

Working together with friends to shoot Stormtroopers, discover Maz Kanata’s castle, or do battle with the Dark Side in LEGO form alongside an epic musical score makes for a great adventure I cannot help but recommend. The game’s brilliant design to adapt events in the movie to fit perfectly in a co-operative game deserves immense praise and sitting back to view the cut-scenes you know from the movie is like re-living the first time you saw the f
