    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.

    Worst online game ever. Endless disappoint. Hopefully someday blizzard will learn how to make stable servers

    It's a shame because the game is great, but apparently Blizzard doesn't know how to set up servers because the online experience is atrocious.

    Lied to again. We were promised a 1 to 1 recreation of the game all the way down to the garlic. What we got was Diablo 2 Re-censored. The amazon and Assasin no longer resemble the original game nor do some of the monsters specifically the Succubus and Sabre cat/ Slinger.

    Blizzard does not provide refunds for bugged games. My level 36 character is missing. On my ssd, the game loads it 100%. The game starts in 5 minutes. The support team is sent to the forum to resolve issues. I will certainly survive this, and the company has become a slop.

    Today I've just lost all my progress. Yeap, that's it. Leveling, legendary items, time - all's gone. There's no char-vanish-issue, no. There's a rollback, so my character was about 75 lvl now it's 21 with proper item progress. That's all you need to know about this "astonishing" release.

    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 Left outdated and unnecessary aspects of the game.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.

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

    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.

    The biggest disappoint with this game is that Blizzard can't seem to keep connections to their servers up. Several crashes an hour that lead to deaths and loss of gold is unsatisfactory.
    On top of the the crashes you also have terrible Desync that adds further frustration to gameplay. Blinking back and forth between being safe then into the middle of enemy groups to then die....

    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]
