Post by: Lonewulfeus on February 19, 2021, 10:05:21 PM: Seriously though, it looks like they largely just updated the graphics and didn’t fuck with the gameplay. Will probably be my only non-gamepass day 1 purchase this year.

Post by: who is ted danson? on February 20, 2021, 02:30:09 AM: I guess this will be a good hold over until Diablo 4 in 2027. Or maybe they should just scrap D4 and stick with this lol

Yeah.

If it's just D2 but 3d graphics, I'm very down to play this.

Title: Re: Diablo 2: Back Up In Your *** With the Resurrection Version
Post by: Human Snorenado on February 20, 2021, 11:02:25 AM: If y'all read any of the articles or watch any of the videos, it is LITERALLY the D2 engine with new paint over it basically. In fact you can toggle the 3d graphics on or off. There is no downside to this, it's like spinning the wheel of fortune and landing on the "oral sex for a day" space.

WC III Reforged was done by some scrub ass team, this is being done by Vicarious Visions who are not bad but ALSO have just done the Crash and THPS remasters, so this is completely in their wheelhouse.

Seriously, y'all watch this video. The dorky ass streamer they got is someone that HATES D3 and is known for doing D2 speedruns; I can almost guarantee you he was picked for that reason.

Post by: paprikastaude on February 21, 2021, 12:08:06 AM: Activision and VV did really well and crazy fair remakes this generation, probably even better packages than Bluepoint did, even if the base games aren't as good. So as long as Blizzard doesn't insist on any shenigans, should be good.

Post by: Mr Gilhaney on February 21, 2021, 05:09:48 PM: I was fully expecting blizzard to have fucked up the looks. But it looks... Pretty good? Been forever since I played a Diablo game, so yeah, I will play it.

Post by: naff on February 21, 2021, 07:26:41 PM: doing boss runs for better loot to complete more boss runs a fraction faster is not an endgame. pvp was a joke (though a pretty funny one i did spend a stupid amount of time on)

if they incorporate something like d3's rifts into d2 and a better way of grinding runes and other endgame gear i might be interested. d2 kept pretty vanilla with a significant overhaul to the endgame is enticing

Post by: Lonewulfeus on February 21, 2021, 08:05:27 PM: My end game was to collect every set and unique item unidentified unless said item could become multiple possible items. Took like 8 mule accounts to hold all my shit and once I got it all I stopped playing lol.

Post by: Human Snorenado on February 24, 2021, 04:04:10 PM: I'm absolutely looking forward to this BUT after a month or two of playing it without new PVE endgame content people are going to realize that all there is to do is shitty pvp griefer crap which is what the couple thousand people who have never stopped playing D2 love so that's gonna be fun

Post by: naff on February 24, 2021, 04:10:58 PM: d2 pvp definitely had a vibe... i would chat p often and remember it being like, unemployed dudes in middle america with nothing to do with their lives contemplating whether to join the military or keep doing fuck all in bumfuck nowhere.
