Diablo 2 Resurrected might be the best remaster ever

[admiral1018]

Can't say how much fun this game has been. I got it for $11 during a sale and probably have close to 1,000 hours in it now. I loved the D2 and LOD when I was younger, and this game just improves on them in every way, without adding any modern-day garbage like MTX.

This game sadly isn't on Steam yet, but there is some hope as D4 and its expansion are. I'd probably buy it again to bypass the Blizzard launcher, and it would be worth every penny.

Anyone here played or playing D2R?

I played. The Christmas event they did back in 2023 was neat.

Whoa, I didn't know that game was remastered, that's neat.

Pala/Necro, this and Black Mesa best remasters.

the xmas event is going every year, different buff every day (resist, xp, gold, mf).

That sounds awesome, how did the Christmas event work? Was it like a special ladder?

I swear Charsi's melons are smaller in the remaster.

My only complaint.

Apparently 2024's was a lot better. Especially random chance for every enemy kill to spawn a Hell Bovine minion.

I agree. Diablo 2 is also an iconic game. It was deserving of a remaster. I like also that in game you can switch between old and new graphics by pushing a key. I prefer the new graphics myself, but some of my friends liked the old better for I guess nostalgia reasons. The most critical thing I think is that they made all the drop rates higher, meaning less grinding for getting high runes.

I was also glad to see Command & Conquer remastered. I know that's an entirely different game from a different company, but I think CnC and Diablo 2 being remastered the way they were shows how remasters should be done. We want the original content, just updated, not changed.

I really do hope they remaster Diablo 1 next. I don't get why so many people hate that game. The story was intriguing and the game play wasn't terrible either.

Wish you could say the same praise for 3 and 4, right? Lol

Oh right we are in the new universe timelime

I own it and played it, but it shows its age. I'm glad PoE2 is around as that is the future of ARPGs.

No, we just do not speak of them. SPEAKING OF THEM GRANTS THEM POWER.

3 always has been just as awesome. Monk power for ever.

i don't get the hate either for it, or for 3. but ok to each their own. D1 remastered would be excellent idea, going through the entire Zakarum Cathedral again but in todays graphics.

long live Griswold.
