Major factors that contributed to Diablo II's success include what fans found to be addictive hack and slash gameplay and free access to. Diablo II was developed by Blizzard North.īy April 2001, Diablo II had become one of the most popular online games ever. It was released for both Microsoft Windows and Mac OS in 2000 by Blizzard Entertainment. As with Diablo Wiki, the text of Wikipedia is available under the GNU Free Documentation License.ĭiablo II, sequel to the popular game Diablo, is a dark fantasy-themed Action role-playing game in a hack and slash or "dungeon roaming" style. The list of authors can be seen in the page history. making D2:R work on an ARM processor is like trying to stuff a square peg into a round hole.This page uses content from Wikipedia. Making games on the ARM processing platform and having them properly communicate to the server that is meant to function and communicate with an x86/64b platform is a huge issue.ĭ2:R isn't a NEW game, they're basically just putting a facade over the OLD game. There is a reason the WoW version on the M1/ARM platform runs on a guided virtual framwork, because without it, the game would not function at all.
it costs a HUGE amount of money to fund re-coding of old games for different architectures and making it work properly with other architectures. I don't know how much you know about computing, but changing their entire platform over to an ARM based processing architecture is a huge move and is NOT developer friendly. MacOS is not what the problem is here, programming for MacOS on an x86 architecture or a 64b Kernel is not much harder than programming for Windows (on the same platform.) Blizzard also had years to prepare for the ARM move by Apple, they were given a huge amount of notice for that.
