A basic teardown of diablo's gameplay

Diablo classifies as "hack and slash point and click (sort of) rpg". Let's tear that down, the hack and slash means the gameplay is biased around mainly fighting. The point and click means you will mainly use your mouse for the game. The rpg means you have experience points and have different roles you can play as. There are 4-character attributes, strength, magic, dexterity, and vitality. Strength allows you to use better items and deal more physical damage. Magic allows you to use better items, deal more damage with spells, and have more mana. Dexterity allows you to use better items and be more accurate. You can upgrade these attributes after gaining a level.
