Someone was saying that it's hard to recreate the atmosphere in D2 with such high detail graphic. I think the problem is more like making that atmosphere in 3D and not have everyone flipping a shit over it. I mean, with such high-detailed graphics nowdays it's hard to make a body on a stick and not make it noticable.


That's acctually a really good point literally hundreds of high res corpses everywhere not to mention what the butchers room would look like in high resolution 3d, fresh meat indeed.

Diablo 2 wasn't that scary imo. But Diablo 1...oh my god. The butcher scene gave me a heart attack.

I fucking hated the butcher back then, I was too scared to open the door, so I always fought against him after I finished lvl 4. I remember my hand shaking like crazy, my heart beating faster and the fear everytime I heard "Ahhh fresh meat". Diablo 2 had some nice scenes, but this is nothing compared to the horror that is Diablo 1.

Omg, The butcher scared the shit out of me. I was like wtf, and then I got pwned
Diablo 2 was also scary for me. I really doubt Blizzard would make Diablo 3 a game with rainbows and all. I mean, they got a lot to live up to, all that creepiness, gore and all. It wouldn't make sense.
I am pretty sure they would lose a lot of customers.

End my suffering

Oh my god Diablo 1 was shittacularily scary. I know everyone was scared by the butcher but damnit so was I. As soon as I opened his door and heard that bastard's growl I bee lined for the stairs and stopped playing. Then I started again and, a little more ready with my bow at my side, opened his door and ran to a gated area and closed the door after me. My heart was pounding out of my chest and if I knew how to swear by god I would have been a sailor. Even though he was beyond the door I'd almost cry whenever he walked into the dark areas because I thought he had found a way to get to me :S

Now that I've discovered the magical psychological effects of THC I'm hoping D3 is as good as the first so I can experience it all again!

holy smokes, it definitely is Aldaris.

I really loved the art style of D2, so I recreated some scenes with my lego men and some army men fortress, as well as copious amounts of red paint.

I still remember when I finally got a skeleton legoman, I was so happy so I could finally make a bone wand for my necromancer lego dude.

CAN'T BE UNHEARD!!!

On topic: I think the reason these games will always remain so classic and scary, far beyond our childhoods is because as children, we all had the best imaginations. Honestly, children have the most creative, and active imaginations. It scared me because I thought any second the butcher or diablo himself was going to pop out and grab me.

Diablo 1 is far more creepy and I literally scared when I played that game when I was 14.

This. Diablo I to me has a much darker feeling to it. Granted, I was yougner when I played it, but the atmosphere seemed much darker, grittier. The catacombs scared the living shit out of me as a child.
Not to mention The Butcher.

Oh yeah that voice actor is all over Diablo I. He speaks in nearly every other paper scroll you read inside the dungeons. There is a text on the 3rd level that speaks of Lazarus, which has his voice to it as well. I bet there are dozens of places where his voice can be heard.

Oh man those ugly ass shaved monkeys that dripped and made the gurgly dry heave noise when they attacked are the things of nightmares.

The gore seems about on par with most other games at that time. Ever play the Myth series?

I think Diablo is just cornered into a niche genre of demonic hack & slash (e.g. Doom). It's nothing like a horror game, but it compensates for lack of plot, character development, and other convincing qualities by challenging your sensibilities. You see a cop out for gore and sex in a lot of simplistic games.
