14 DAY TRIAL // The latest installment of comedic YouTube series Honest Game Trailers, a spin-off of Honest Trailers where the crew makes fun of various consecrated video game franchises instead of the usual movie-related stabs, pokes some fun at the Diablo franchise.
Developer Blizzard Entertainment has just released the latest installment in the series, Diablo 3: Ultimate Evil Edition, marking the action role-playing game’s debut on next-gen platforms and the release of the Reaper of Souls expansion, available on PC since March this year.
The trailer dissects the Diablo franchise in the typical Honest Trailers fashion, ridiculing everything there is to be ridiculed. The video parodies various aspects of the legendary Diablo franchise, from the ones that fans hold most dear to the ones that cause the most frustration.
The various hacking and item-duping issues that plagued Diablo were not spared, as wasn’t the rocky launch of the third installment, that suffered from technical issues that prevented gamers who owned the game from playing for weeks.
The much-debated real-money auction house also gets some love, and pretty much everything seems spot-on, including the bit regarding the brown and gray color palette that the game uses and the fact that there is, in fact, a cow level.
