Depends on how well the game has been done. Sacred got boring, because there
were so many monsters thar were so similar.
Diablo had a great variety of creatures with different tactics, so the fun
and the skill comes in adapting and changing your way of playing to the
game. Of course, there's also the loot, the decision on what weapons and
armour to use for what critters.

Then, if you play for story (as I do) there's the constant 'what next' as
pieces of the story unfold as you work your way through the game.

Do you play first person shooters? Do you enjoy them?
