MS told Blizzard 900p was "unacceptable" for Diablo 3 on Xbox One.

Honestly, it's kinda weird that Blizzard couldn't get a last-gen game at 1080p/60fps. Diablo 3 doesn't even look that great visually.

That being said, I'm not a fan of when console makers force devs to make changes to their games.

Its not about how good a character looks or the scenary. For diablo and games like it, its about all that its happening at the same time. First of your characters have masive magic that can affects large areas, some can sumon multiple creatures or abient changers all of wich with massive particle effects. The badest part is the enemy mobs. In some cases you can face 20-30 enemys at once, each with big atacks unike to it and some enemys can sumon also increasing the number even higher of enemys. Not to mentione the world is ramdomly generated so no game is ever the same, and the combinations of enemys change. This game is more demanding than rise where everithing is allways the same, enemys, dialoge, envyerment, trail you are allowed to wald, character you can be, friends that cant joing you, minimal enemis wwich all use the same moveset and expresions. 

All I know is that relatively weak PCs can play Diablo 3 1080p/60fps no problem. It's all about the optimization.
