It's been 12 years since I've played this. Hell, short of sports titles on Xbox, this would be my first gaming since finishing Skyrim in 2014. That being said, I'd be in for playing some D2. However, I'm so rusty that I would most certainly be the "special" "short bus" member of the party.Does anyone want to form a group and play this when the time comes? I kinda feel like diving into it and getting carried away like I did 20 years ago. I still have the original CDs.

I wonder, if they make D2R a battle.net only affair, will the skeletons add modern desync to the gameplay?Its easy. Roll a Necro, raise skeletons and enjoy the TV. Its really a great way to explore the game because you can see how monsters work without dying left and rightthat setup only gets challenging in the highest difficulties.

Yep, absolutely zero atmosphere -- 100% Chinese arcade.As much as I dislike Acti-Blizz these days, Im going to try it at least for free.
Beside that, original game was by Blizzard North, which has nothing to do with today Blizzard. And it kinda shows, in today quality of Blizzard.![]()

Tbh, when I wrote "modern desync", I was thinking of desync in single player, because it is only "modern" to be tied to an online connection when playing on your ownIm sure they looked at D3 netcode... I do hope they rubber band like they used to...![]()

What a rip off ( I have pre purchased the game prior to the open beta announcement) :
a)I had the game dialed to max details before anything on first run only for the game to just barely make 50FPS In the " Rogue Encampment";
b) following above point a I set the game to minimum , at where it yelded ~60 fps's
It ran on a Ryzen 5800x , 32GB DDR4 and an Rx 480 8GB.
Le: I mean wasn't the minimum spec for the remastered to have the in-game FPS limiter removed or what? ( Yes , I somewhat know the original ran technically different, sprite-like animation)

Newer isn't always better. Many people consider D2 the pinnacle of its genre, and I'm pretty sure a big part of the reason Blizzard is doing D2R is so they re visit and do some solid take aways so they don't end up with another Diablo 3.Reskin.
I played it in April or when it came out on alpha, played it now. But this time I played it with 3 more people.
I can say this: it's the only hack &slash in the planet that has 7 player co-op (one for each class). And on that note, this is 100% a reskin nothing more. Only worth it if you have your friends with you in a lan party or via Discord to laugh your ass off while having a drink and doing infinite dungeons.
The mechanics have not changed one bit, you are playing a 21-year-old game. And that's the sad part.
So many games, on the top of my head, Chaosbane, Van Hellsing, Walcen etc have new mechanics. know how to do micromanaging on the potions and over-all inventory ++ the visibility of the map exploration wise is still the same one from 20 years ago.
Choasbane and Walcen lord of mayhem have one of the best way of showing the map as you progress through the dungeon without having to constantly keep the map open....from this point DIablo 3 had better map visibility and potion managing than this. And of course it id, its a newer game with a better way of handling everything.

Maybe the D2R is a try-out before releasing D4 and they want to see people's reaction. If this d2r turns to be ok and has a warm welcome, D4 might be more likely like that but added few things, something changed or expandedThey're just betting nostalgia will have us buy Diablo 4, after that Diablo 3 train wreck.
I'll take this for a spin, but I have no intention to touch Diablo 4.

Well, for games like D2, polishing is exactly what I want. Not a remake/reboot, but a remaster.
