I dont understand all the D2 love here..

you could literally play and beat the game with the mouse alone. clickclickclicklcick ooh drop clicklicklclicklckliclkcklckliccklcklcklck

the story was kinda neat but the first diablo scared the shit out of me and i loved every bit of it. d2 was taking the horror rpg and making it fantasy for me =(


edit;

imagine this when you are 10 years old, alone in the dark playing computer games for the first time.AND these graphics are the top of the line for the time.




some scary shit, the room of bodies at the end haunts me to this day

I actually learned this language on USEast, trading stuff on D2 ^^. My English would be even more broken without it.

Diablo 2 for me was more of a trading game. I'd log in to get "richer" and then people thought I was cool because I would go around wearing Tyrael's Might when it sold on ebay for $100.

I was a cool kid back in the day. I remember crying because of it too.

Yeah, the first one was a fair bit darker than this one. But there are some fairly gory scenes. The Durance of Hate and the slaughtered harem girls were pretty strong. I got the same feeling as the butcher from that fallen angel Tyrial sends you to fight, and from Radament.

hehe. D2 and I had a strained relationship. I was around 10 or so at the time, and my brother had played it a bit. I had watched how he could level up and get new spells. So I started playing, and for some reason, the necromancer reached out to me. The cinematic of the army of skeletons attacking the tavern was just soo cool, that I had to control that power.

So I put my first point into raise skeleton, and not too long later, I had a sizeable army of (extremely weak) skeletons, and I was still whacking fallen in Act I. And then for some reason, my mother happened to see what was going on in the screen; the Fallen die with a semi circular arc of blood spraying out of their mouths, and special monsters exploding into piles of blood. My mother soon decided this game was too bloodthirsty for a impressionable young child as myself, and banned me from playing it.

But this only made me want to play even more. So on saturday mornings, when everyone was out of the house, I would sneak onto my computer and start up D2. Since I was starting anew, I decided to start a new character, so I started a sorc. With this new more powerful character, I was finally able to reach Act 2!! (the skeletons were REALLY horrible back in the day hahaha) Oh how I remember the bright and exciting landscapes of Lut Gholein; the Jewel in the Desert.. However, with every slight noise or hint of my parents returning, I would have to exit the game just of sheer nerves. For that reason, I never got that much playtime, leading to the demise of my sorc at around lvl 20, never to be played again.

Of course several years later, I was finally allowed to play, as I was now older. However, this time, I had the power of the internet, and I logged onto B.net, much like many of you, and walked down that wondrous path of Online play.

Hackers messed up D2 real bad. I hope D3 will not go down the same path.

there was a brief period of time over summer vacancies last year where i wanted catch up on d2 bnet play (only played single back in the day) and i NERDED THE SHIT OUT OF IT. holy crap. it was like a certain time in wow classic when i went two days without sleep just because the game was able to keep me awake 24/2.

i had this incredibly well equipped mf sorc after like three weeks of getting the hang of the game with trading, efficient boss runs etc. and then i suddenly stopped playing because i was simply oversaturated.

maybe i'll start again some time before d3 is released to compensate my hype

Great game - great play, awesome music, spectacular gfx.
I especially enjoyed the different settings of each act - wasteland, desert, jungle, hell, snowlands... each forming an unforgettable atmosphere.
Although not too "balanced" in terms of characters and skill choices, but it didn't matter at all.

fuuu. yup, got owned by that game a few times. losing a few 90+ hardcore characters to drops or script PKers was enough to get me off it though. I never liked 1.10+ much, so I got mostly out of it after that.

hehe yeah, I finished Diablo 1 ages ago and it was awesome, but after getting used to the walking speed on 2, I just cant go back no matter how many times I try. Some friends and I teamed up a few months back to finally finish Diablo 2 on all difficulties and it was a awesome time, we had some good laughs and ragefests. Imagine this, you are in the worldstone keep on hell, pinned down from one side by a bunch of gloams trying to 1 shot you offscreen, the whole party is fighting like mad just to move up a few meters, its slow but its going, then suddenly we notice one of our sorces is missing, where the hell is he, at that moment someone up ahead lures some more gloams and we are forced to retreat, just to have that missing sorcer show up from behind luring 20 more monsters right into our escape path because he went exploring on his own, the whole party gets slaughtered, good times are had by all. Amazing game.
