Core mechanics:
Diablo III; Reaper of Souls is the first expansion to the hack and slash action role-playing video game Diablo III developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. The combat and game engine of the Diablo III are core mechanics of the game. This is because by slaying computer controlled enemies player gains experience and ability to loot enemies which allows to acquire better items and using more powerful abilities by reaching a certain rank. Each enemy is exclusive in both it's fighting style and abilities. Therefore a player must approach every enemy decisively, because it is possible that even the weakest enemy can one shot a player. It becomes even a greater challenge when a player is faced with a crowd of enemies at a tight location. The game engine allows destructible environments to be created that can be interacted with and even destroy the enemies.
Enemies are gathered around a player and attacking him.

Another gating mechanism is the epic monsters ( bosses). These bosses prevent the player from passage to the next zone and challenging them.
Positive feedback comes primarily from successfully executing enemies, especially a really strong enemy that drops a lot of items.

Negative feedback comes from the player losing health and dying. This leads to a text on a screen saying : You have Died. Your deeds of valor will be remembered.
Getting killed.
