In some respects, this is the question asked by expansion packs more often than sequels, these days. Sequels usually make changes, sometimes massive ones, that make them a distinctive entity despite being part of a series. Expansion packs generally stay within the framework of the existing title, maybe making a few tweaks here and there to compensate for the original game's shortcomings. Of course, some games need more than just a few tweaks when putting out an expansion. Diablo III was arguably one of those games.Two years after its release, plenty of changes have been made incrementally, but Reaper of Souls puts everything in one nice neat package for those who abandoned the game long ago. The end result is still not the game we could have gotten, but it goes a long way towards making it playable and even enjoyable in spots.
