Forums - PC - Diablo II Ressurected is simply a perfect Remake of the Original

Perfect to a fault. I'm not a big fan of just updating the graphics of older games because a lot more has improved in the gaming industry over the years other than just graphics, and Diablo II Resurrected brings everything back from the original, both good and bad. Whenever they do these type of updates I would love them to also bring a lot of optional quality of life improvements so those who want to play a good game can still do so without needing to get bogged down with all of the annoyances from decades ago.

For example: Inventory management is just SO tedious and unnecessary given that it would be easy to just have everything take up less space. Even back in the day people were annoyed by the inventory, so why not just give people a QoL update now that they would have also wanted in the original if it had been available at the time?

I agree with you 100%, and D2 was one of my all-time favorite games. After playing much more fluid games, the mechanics just feel a bit wonky, and the inventory is and was definitely the biggest annoyance. It feels more like a remaster than a remake. Maybe I will pick it up at some point, but I canceled my pre-order for now. Still, glad that some people will be able to (re)experience it. Bilzzard is a mess right now, so fingers crossed on IV.

Been playing through the Beta of the game right now, and I have to admit, Blizzard just nailed the Remake.

The enviroment, the gameplay, the feel to it. Its all so... perfect.

Go give the game a try. The open beta is running this weekend. Anyone who have played Diablo 2 when it first launched, or anyone who never played it, should give this a try.

It looks amazing and plays great when everything is working properly, but the Beta isn't perfect - it's full of bugs and annoyances that weren't in the original. Hopefully they fix them before release, although with less than a month to go I'm sceptical they'll get it all done in time...

I feel like they're going to be patching it frequently in the initial few weeks after launch.

Yeah, hope they do. Oddly enough, there were several bugs in the game that was originally in the vanilla version. I have nostalgia for the game, but not that much.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Thankfully Blizzard has a track record of supporting it's games decades after it's release... I mean, Diablo1 servers from 1996 are online.

One of if not my favourite game of all times. But after what they did to 3 I fell out of love with the whole company. And now the recent shit is going on.

I just need to know if the single player is not mandatory online only. Its the only thing that will keep me from buying this game.
