    I would give it less than a zero but that wasnt an option. Any game in volving soo much wackness and booos and fighting cows deserves to be killed. All copies should be emediatly destroyed.

    An old game that has been little or no support from Blizzard (they support WOW, not this old crappy game) whenever they DO update it, it destroys built characters and makes it unplayable. Ignoring user bugs reported, they instead will suddenly get concerned and lock keys with claims that users are hacking. A poor choice for the money - Zero Support from Blizzard.

    Anyone who can sit and play this game for hours suffers from a severe lack of intelligence. Let me clarify: Why spend money on this game when you can just walk over to the nearest wall and bang on it for a few hours. The effect is exactly the same. This game offers absolutely nothing to anyone with half a brain. Boo!

    I think I had no other game I played through so many times as this one.
    And because of this, I know how sick this game is actually.
    The endless killing and hunting of the respawning enemies is just "souleating". You are grinding all the time for a slightly better object in the game. You waste hundreds if not thousands of hours just to get better items to kill more and more. This kind of    I think I had no other game I played through so many times as this one.

    You are grinding all the time for a slightly better object in the game. You waste hundreds if not thousands of hours just to get better items to kill more and more. This kind of games are so vicious at their core that words simply can't describe.
    Diablo is perfect title, but not because the ultimate boss is the devil itself, but because when you play this you are a puppet of the devil itself.
    You put yourself into a false illusion that you are the child of light and in order to get to the ultimate boss you actually kill hundreds or hundreds of thousands of opponents without hesitation.

    You can say it's just a game, but actually it's all in your minds - and I don't talk about the game itself, but the will and thirst for blood and violence.

    I guess nobody will ever write such an unordinary review as I did, but I really felt I have to do.
    If I can shed some light to people who may hesitate and are about to play it, just please avoid.
    And its not just this particular title, but all title around that resembles the game mechanics of grinding/farming/repeatedly killing opponents. For the sake of your souls!    … Expand

    C’est la seconde itération du haque et slache de Bliretard sortie en 2000 et pourtant j’ai cru que j’avais lancé le tout premier ! putain que c’est laid ! oui, que c’est laid même pour son époque, c’est une soupe de pixels qui plairait d’ailleurs aux amateurs des étron indés d’aujourd’hui sauf qu’il s’agit d’un rétron démoulé par un éditeur triple A (à ce qu’il paraît !).

    La version    C’est la seconde itération du haque et slache de Bliretard sortie en 2000 et pourtant j’ai cru que j’avais lancé le tout premier ! putain que c’est laid ! oui, que c’est laid même pour son époque, c’est une soupe de pixels qui plairait d’ailleurs aux amateurs des étron indés d’aujourd’hui sauf qu’il s’agit d’un rétron démoulé par un éditeur triple A (à ce qu’il paraît !).

    La version boîte tient sur 3 cd et met une plombe à s’installer, enfin quasiment une demi-plombe à vrai dire : il copie ses fichiers à chier comme une tortue d’Alzheimer pour un « résultat » à l’écran tout à fait hideux. Et en plus, il faut entrer une putain de clé, même pour le « solo » ! On ne peut pas zoomer ou dézoomer et la minicarte n’est pas une minicarte mais une grosse carte en surimpression confuse, affreuse et inexploitable.

    On ne peut pas sauvegarder quand on veut puisque de toute manière, on reprend sa partie au camp le plus proche quoi qu’il arrive comme dans tous ces hakes et slashes de leur sous-espèce de pseudo-jeux où l’on passe son « temps », où l’on gaspille un temps précieux (le temps, c’est de l’argent !) à cliquer sur des « ennemis » comme un cliqueur ultra débile. D’ailleurs, ça ne monte même pas jusqu’au cerveau, c’est un simple arc-réflexe entre le tronc cérébral et l’index transformé en usine à clics.

    Dire que c’est répétitif, simplet et idiot, c’est rester très en dessous de la vérité… c’est bien pire que ça ! le pseudo-monde fantasy et fantaisiste est très générique ici et d’une banalité affligeante, une foire aux clichés usés de troisième main en solde. On ne va pas s’appesantir ni s’attarder davantage sur ce jeu d’attardés ; la partie la plus amusante (mais fort brève) du jeu, c’est sa désinstallation : efficace et très rapide ! mais aussi les 3 galettes qu’on peut casser l’une après l’autre après avoir fait une partie de freesbee !    … Expand

    Imagine re-selling the same game for 40 meanwhile they **** to players who already have the game, do not make them able to play with the new players.

    In SC they did it, in w3 refunded they did it, here, no.

    They are evolving, just backwards.

    affixes of mobs unbalanced in damage and type. Painful end game bordering on ridicule. How this game can be considered a must today is laughable. a tank and spank for sissies

    Absolute trash. Braindead, monocellular gameplay that is only "addicting" because you grind for better RNG gear solely so the game goes by faster.

    Held back from being an EXCELLENT game by the fact that it features no really interesting characters or roleplaying, it only has a few simple quests, its story is paper thin, it has a few technical issues, Battle.net is unreliable, and the gameplay is ultimately shallow and repetitive.

    Don't steal, but lie and cheat if necessary. As a gamer, it's your duty to own Diablo II. [Aug 2000, p.75]

    If you're going to buy one role playing game this year then this has to be it.
