    You did beta twice, but the first two weeks after release still feels like another beta. All the issues you should fix were never fixed.

    You blame us are playing different: we have created too many games. It's been 20-ish years we play it this way and you only realize that today? So it's all our fault?

    Die! Blizzard! Die!

    The game itself is great and looks very good. I have spent in the original Diablo 2 handreds of hours. And now after I purchased the remaster I have loved to play more. But I can't.
    World of Queues. Thanks Blizzard for the state of the servers...

    It's a game from 20 years ago. It's servers are still from 20 years ago.

    Who would expect a game in this era will have such horrible server issues. Unable to log in every single night and you may have to line up after few hundreds of players. Even if you managed to log in, you might not be able to join a friend's game due to server issues. The 1 point is for the improved graphics.    It's a game from 20 years ago.

    Good work blizzard, thanks for best supporting! Really well
    according to the developer, the development of the Internet and modern players are to blame©

    Right now, ZERO for server issues.
    Game is still unplayable. Long queue to play??? Absurd and ridiculous, server managed by 12 year olds who has no no clue what is going on, Frequent crashes, 5 days straight server crashed, rollbacks wasting time. Yes, Diablo 2 is an old hard game, but that is the challenge. It's not like Diablo 3, Torchlight, Path of Exile,    Rating: 8 for the game core

    Log in interface is outdated and very bad design, stamina issues, constant health and manna pots, monster immunities, small shared stash are still there.    … Expand

    And single player in NOT an alternative, as the gameplay is CRIPPLED and you are missing many things, like most of RUNEWORDS, Diablo Clone, Uber Tristram etc. that are only available online... but you can't play online, as servers are overloaded...

    Cannot reccomend it to anyone...    … Expand

    The game is ok, albeit a bit repetative.

    But, the servers are almost never working, stuck in an endless login queue. If you are lucky and manage to log in, you will crash or disconnect after a few minutes of play.
    Here, have a rating of zero, as the game is UNPLAYABLE.

    Daily 1+ hour long of queuing, and sometimes you get booted off in the process, forcing you to re enter the queue again. Extremely poor quality and performance, with zero support from Blizzard. I do not recommend this game at all.

    Wow - where to start? One would think if you purchase a game - you would conceivably be able to play it? Another sloppy release from Blizzard which they do not care about after they've taken your money. Server issues are not getting any better.

    Is it a good game? Yes, it is. As good as the old one.

    But in 2021, sold an old game for 40 USD, with massive server issues after 2 weeks of the release is not acceptable. This is not what a game should be.

    To be honest, this is an old game. It's already priced at it's maximum. With the disastrous issues, I only want to tell Blizzard: Die. Blizzard. Die.

    Was stupid enough to buy twice since I loved the original. Since implementing the queue system I haven't been able to play once on PC. Error message after every 20-50 minute queue wait. On switch out of hundreds on attempts I have only been able to connect to online once since the introduction of queues.

    1. Ugly characters throughout the game.
    2. Clothed (censored) the mobs in the game.
    3. There is no adequate modding support.
    4. Left outdated and unnecessary aspects of the game.
    The game is not worth it to even waste time downloading pirates. Bottom.

    Critic Reviews are off basis and don't hold any substantial value. I have to question the validity of the critics giving the ratings as they blindly ignore the year, price, and hype around this game. It has completely fallen short of being praise worthy.

I have to question the validity of the critics giving the ratings as they blindly ignore the year, price, and hype around this game. It has completely fallen short of being praise worthy. Toggling between old/new graphics is quite interesting but I would say this would have been better released as a $10 expansion to the original offering it just a graphics engine update and improved cinematics as that is what it really is.

    I rather play the game in its original form than this replica without local multiplayer.

    Connection interrupted many times, wish I could host my own server instead of their instable servers. Online hardcore server will guaranteed kill you as you will teleport some times at the worst time. Losing connection = losing progress and loot on the ground.

    Unit pathing/collisions is identical, pretty sure they just updated the graphic engine and left everything else untouched. Graphics are slightly better but don't feel better with how clunking movement and world interaction is. Not to mention players blocking doorways etc.

    Inventory management is still a nightmare. They added tabs to the storage for shared storage which is nice. But, doesn't improve potion management. Should be able to set slots to auto pickup and slot specific potions. Also should be able to set auto use conditions.

    Multiplayer loot is first come first serve. Makes for a lot of communication required around loot which slows gameplay. Would be nice if loot would be suggested based on class/build. Considering the cost for the game.

    The original Diablo 2 I would give a 9/10 considering it was made 20+ years ago. This game you can only rate it on the reskin that it is. I would say they did a 10 out of 10 on updating everything artistically. But, unfortunately this is a game and visuals only affect the first impression and reality sets in and in this case I'll stick to the original game than this joke "resurrection" that tarnishes the original's legacy with no improvements to the game mechanics including no balance improvements.    … Expand

    Do not waste your money on this game. Servers are literally unplayable for 8+ hours a day for the past 9 days. Blizz is not giving refunds and have gone as far as to blame the players for farming to much causing their out dated codes from the original game to crash

    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: Resurrection is outdated return of the legend, but it brings such a perfect atmosphere and such a wonderful audiovisual processing, that serie fans will be excited.

    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]
