Hack-and-slash games have been very popular among gamers for quite some time now. These games feature a type of gameplay that focuses on combat with melee-based weapons like swords or blades. Blizzard Entertainment’s Diablo series is well-known for popularising this genre but these series lacked something that fans have been craving for years. The hack-and-slash game is fun but it really needs a first-person camera to make things much more exciting. Many players have attempted to make this possible using various mods but Blizzard has never acknowledged this idea.
