    I am very glad that I lived to see the remaster of the game. Everything is done very high quality. My nostalgia is satisfied. Thank you Blizzard for finding people who could do everything well.

    Vicarious Visions are great. This is a great job. Yes, there are errors and bugs in it. But this is fixable. Thanks.

    Price - 8/10 I'm a grown man, and I spend way more daily for food.
    Since I buy games like only once a year (no time and desire to play), I'd pay a 1000$ instantly for a game that actually made me look forward for it.
    Since there's no way I'll spend less than 1000 hours in this game - the price per hour of entertainment is laughable.

    Diablo II Resurrected is exactly how I imagine it in the 2000s! Modern graphics, new features, gameplay and soundtrack unchanged. This is what made the game unique to this day

    D2 was my childhood favourite, and with this remaster, the game reignited my passion for it.

    On my first play I created an Amazon and soon there were 8 players in game hacking and slashing from A1 Q1, and we played together for hours.

    It is visually stunning, I keep myself zooming in to see all the details that were missing from the original. From time to time I switch with a press of a button to see how the original game looked like. Because in my imagination it always looked like in Resurrected, but then the harsh reality comes when I see how simplistic the original was. Resurrected is filled with life, the flags in the city are moving, even the sounds are more detailed and dynamic, as you switch between the old and the remastered version you can clearly hear the difference. They really paid attention to the smallest details.

    I had no issue playing with 8 players together, network connectivity was flawless in EU. So multiplayer works well, don't listen to the negative voices and reviews.

    Auto gold pickup is a very welcome change, and the best is that it's optional.

    If you loved the original there's nothing to complain about this version, it's the same experience with better visuals and sounds. I totally recommend to everyone who loved D2, you'll experience those childhood memories again!

    Stunning visuals and stays true to the original game that we all know and love. I also highly recommend even new players give it a shot, it’s just as addicting 20 years later. Also appreciate that you can flip to the OG graphics, it blows my mind every time I switch

Игра именно такая какой я запомнил её из детства. Игра не заслуживает 10/10 но много людей ставят 0 из-за проблем которые к игре не относятся, так что решил поставить 10.

    The same with improved graphic design, thank god. Old good original diablo is one of the best-rated games here so I am confused about people giving rapidly low scores. And there is a bunch of weird people who are posting "it is the same game" comments - which should be obvious if it's just remastered.

    Great game, perfect remaster. Everything like it should be. At the beginning problems with server, because there is too many people playing. There is also a bug with the map, but those are minor problems. Games is great with perfect graphic! There are no problems in game.

    If you are expecting a groundbreaking game with new features you have to go back 20 years in time, when this was true as you will have a bad time if you expect that this remaster will bring new things into the mix.

    If you are expecting a visual upgrade of your old beloved classic, then you will have an amazing time playing it. It is perfect? No. It is well done? Yes, very.

    I consider this a great remaster, with animations, visuals, cinematics and QOL improvements just great.

    So in summary:
    If you want to play this game for the very first in your life - manage expectations, this game is 20 years old (consider the gameplay) it is fun, but it will not stand well against like Path of Exile, Grim dawn etc.
    If you loved this game as a kid but old visuals kept you from replaying the game, go for it, there will not be a better time.

    Kudos to devs, greatly done.

    Очень правильно сделали, что ничего не стали менять в геймплее. Для новшеств есть диабла 4, а это ремастер, он и должен быть таким как 20 лет назад.

    Обидно что игру бомбят из-за технических проблем, ничего критичного там нет, за месяц патчами разрулят, а нулевые оценки останутся.

    Firstly, I love that, this game has not forgotten its roots. This is a masterfully revisited version of Diablo II, and the feature to move back and forward between the old version and new version by simply pressing a hot key is awesome.

    Secondly, in terms of minimum requirements, I had to update my Windows from 7 to 10 which was fine because it was finally the motivation I needed to
    Firstly, I love that, this game has not forgotten its roots. This is a masterfully revisited version of Diablo II, and the feature to move back and forward between the old version and new version by simply pressing a hot key is awesome.

    Secondly, in terms of minimum requirements, I had to update my Windows from 7 to 10 which was fine because it was finally the motivation I needed to move out of the stone age. Not sure, what this AVX support business is but my computer is over ten years old and still runs it so if you don't have a computer built in the stone age and runs Windows 8 or later you should be fine. My video card is super old too but still runs it with no lag whatsoever.

    Thirdly, the gameplay is just amazing, my friend and I have been crawling through dungeons, completing quests and dying innumerably. It's the way gaming was and still should be. I really don't give a damn about this TCP support, it hasn't changed anything for me, if you want a private game with friends, just create one with a password on it, problem solved. Furthermore, this game doesn't accommodate the cry babies that /gquit at the sign of any difficulty, you actually have to earn your gear and be on to it if you want to snatch up any item before some one else does.

    Fourthly, music/sound, this game is so cinematic and yet, has punchy gameplay to support it, the sound effects have a crunch that is really satisfying, the music changes to all the different terrains, perhaps you're in a dark, underground dungeon or a sprawling city, there's a soundtrack for all situations. Furthermore, All the quest givers have their own voice acted narration and speak every word, not like those half-attempted narrated games you get these days, with NPC's talking a couple of sentences then nothing more... All the voices are different too, so each voice has its own unique style.

    Fifthly, the flow, there's something about the way this game flows that is really gripping. It's not found anywhere else today and this is continuously overlooked. For example, you start off pretty much naked and exploring a cave but then get thrown into a world of lore, mystery and grandeur. You're forever wondering where the journey will take you next? Then, the low drop rate of epic items means that not every player you encounter online is a generic, overpowered God, but you will see them die all the time because of their lack of gear or experience. It's no walk in the park, and therefore there is a gritty, brutal but tactful and persevering mechanic behind its gameplay.

    Lastly, I believe this Metacritic page is getting bombed by people upset with the game. Those instant gratification types or those being insincere and creating multiple accounts to bring the rating down. Just have a look at the amount of ratings that have been placed in comparison to other games on Metacritic, it's absurd. To those people I have the following message, Blizzard have done their best to remain in communication with and provide support to all those that are having difficulty. Check out the forums, they are doing their best.

    Great job Vicarious Visions. Thank you.

Я считаю , что полностью перерисованные синематики, обновленная графика, проф. актерская озвучка, стоят этих денег.Старт был не совсем удачным, некоторые баги, падения серверов.У Близзард сейчас не лучшие времена,и я готов это простить, они в любом случае стараются сделать хороший продукт, но не всегда всё получается гладко,все возможные ошибки они исправят в ближайшее время, я уверен в этом.

    Some server issues at launch but all resolved now. Incredibly faithful to the original, which is testament to the brilliant game design of Diablo 2. If you loved the original, you'll love this.

    Diablo II: Resurrected is far from perfect. The changes in character design are likely to rile up returning players, and the archaic gameplay probably won’t agree with younger generations weaned on more streamlined, sophisticated experiences. While I appreciate that this legendary title is now available in an improved format, it’s not a caveat-free recommend.

    Diablo II returns with refreshed graphics and unaltered gameplay (apart from some small improvements). It’s as fun as I remembered, so I quickly felt at home and gave in to nostalgia. However, it’s hard not to notice that beneath revamped visuals lies a 21 years old design. [12/2021, p.32]
