    "How dare you! You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words"

    I Love Diablo 2, and I just want to be able to play it in a reasonable resolution. But no, it had to be a remaster, Like Warcraft 3 remaster was the benchmark. Not only destroying core game features, by changing the core code. (Bugs are the new features so I heard) They lack server capacity or experience, I don't know. The 20-year-old servers still run better than this **** Weeks after release, still "unplayable" because the servers are crap. Even if ur lucky and the load is not that high, you can lose progress with a rollback, because: the servers are like werewolves, they only seem to work at a full moon.

    Sure graphics are better, boe-hoo. A 4k turd is still a **** turd.

    PS. I did not mention the Amazon Dafoe or some other things that got butchered, because I think I would need more than 5000 characters to swear a lot.    … Expand

    Such a shame how a beautifully remastered game can be ruined by a poor crappy service. Servers go down every day for a couple of hours. Blizzard is doing nothing about it and has a useless twitter account that just copy pastes "sorry for the inconvenience". Literally unplayable. Don't buy this.

    Another amazing IP spoiled by Blizzard greed and absolute incompetence.

    A multi-billion dollar company, who's sole purpose is to provide an online gaming service is incapable of keeping a newly launched game online for more than 15 consecutive hours without 6 hours of down-time.

    Pathetic, horrible company.

    All the problem is that poor server. I can hardly play this title because of the server down in the last few days. I'm also dissatisfied with their dishonest response. They should apologize and refund. This is never forgiven.

    Get woke, go broke.
    AND, to the potential soyboys that use dumb arguments like "omg you want pixelated girls to look pretty you must be a horny virgin' or "shouldn't the mechanic be the only thing that matters", a. aesthetic matters to everything, even the design of a soda can or shampoo tries their best to look attractive, it is an integral part of customer experience. b. do people who like nice-looking cars drive **** themselves, do people watch formula one because they can't afford fast cars not because they just like seeing cars go fast? is there ANY logical connection between wanting things to look pretty, which is basic human nature, and not being able to obtain or achieve the said thing? there is none, you have to be literally stupid(as it is to many SJW) to think there is.
    Games are getting uglier and uglier all across the board, and worse, they are also becoming the same remaster or copy-paste of other games because of the lack of imagination and the unwillingness to take risk in order to make a genuinely good game instead of just wanting to take the safest route to generate money, it is also not to my surprise that these SJW and left-leaning game designers simply cannot do their job despite all their resentment towards things they either do not own or better than themselves.    … Expand

    The main reason is that it is only graphical enhancement. Lots of opportunities were ignored by Blizzard, like enabling already prepared superior gamepad's interface for keyboard and mouse users. Removal of Lan paly modes was the biggest hit in the franchise that really makes it still inferior version to original D2, you cannot play with your friends lag free anymore, and seeing how the Blizzard servers were running you probably cannot play at all with friends. It's made purely as a single player experience. I have spend more than 6hrs trying to connect to games what basically made me illegible for refund! Maybe it was planned this way. In addition the game CTDs like crazy, something original D2 just do no do. Playing on BattleNet requires save and exit every 15 minutes, because when the game/server fails you can loose all progress since last relog (I have lost this way lvl 15 paladin and was really pissed off when after relog he was lvl 1).

    Diablo II: Resurrected is the video game equivalent of your grandpa using black hair dye and trying to convince you he's young again. He may look better, but you still know he's your grandpa, and he still talks like your grandpa.

D2R takes a look at all of the advances and evolution    Diablo II: Resurrected is the video game equivalent of your grandpa using black hair dye and trying to convince you he's young again. He may look better, but you still know he's your grandpa, and he still talks like your grandpa.

    What was a great game 20 years ago unfortunately doesn't survive being brought into the modern day as-is. D2R takes a look at all of the advances and evolution the genre has undergone in the last several decades and proudly says "no, I'm good enough as I am", overconfident that what made it good then will make it good now. This is very much not the case.

    D2R brings with it a host of extremely dated, clunky and inconvenient mechanics, a visual design that leaves you wondering where you're going or what you're clicking on half of the time, server issues that render the game unplayable for days, and the list goes on. The graphics are certainly beautiful, but that's where the improvements stop, and unless you're a die-hard fan of the original Diablo II, and have been playing it nonstop for the last 20 years, this game does not have the means to hook and retain you for very long.

    Game balance is nonexistent, and progress into later difficulties requires guides and usage of specific classes and builds. Itemization is irrelevant, as all classes eventually desire the same 10 items to finalize their builds. The community is toxic, unwelcoming to new players and new opinions, closed to any feedback except how great Diablo II is, an attitude reflected in the game's developers, who largely only considered the feedback of the addicted players and discarded the takes of new players or casual players.

    The multiplayer scene is already host to bots, not even a week after release, and hackers have already figured out how to make popular third party tools, like maphack and pickit, work with the new game. Underneath it all is an economy driven by third party websites where users can purchase in-game items with money.

    The unfortunate bottom line is that Diablo II: Resurected is a very old, dated game with a fresh coat of paint. Once you get past the shiny new effects and animation, there's little to be found here except Diablo II, and while Diablo II is a genre-defining classic, since its release, video games have made leaps and bounds in terms of accessibility, balance, fun and ergonomic design, and in all four of those categories, Diablo II and by extension Resurrected as well, is/are lagging behind painfully.

    This game is a desperate attempt to cash in on nostalgia, at a time when its producing company very, very badly needs you to forget what it is up to right now.

    If you are new to the series, or are not a hardcore Diablo II player who intends to play this game 8 hours a day for the next several years, then this game is not for you. That is its target audience, and it makes no effort to conceal that fact.    … Expand

    Game doesn't launch. Very long loading time and multiple of my characters have been deleted. I have had 3 characters so far being rolled back by more than 5 hours which have ruined the launch for me. Lot of lies from blizzard too where they stated they will fix the characters loading in before the loading screen. Ruining hardcore experience for the players.

    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]
