Still enjoy original diablo 2 with mods. Won't buy this unless they add something interesting.

Fingers crossed that they won't require your original installation to update && download a ~30GB patch... LOL let's not kid ourselves here...

Seriously people, please DO NOT give in to your craving and pre-order this! Remember Blizzcon 2018, I beg you.

i think, d2 beta will be very short because d2:r is already in the app.

I am very hyped about it! Looks like they did what i wanted: better graphik, shared and bigger stash tab, automatic gold pickups.
I am worried about infinite power leveling. I hope its not paragon leveling like d3.

Some of the animations seem to be off. Look at the Necromancer moving.

i didnt see any mention of infinite leveling?
even if this was true i doubt it would make any meaningful difference tbh. hitting 99 is already hard as fuck, so the payoff for hitting 100 or 101 is pretty shit

at the very least I'll wait to see if they actually do ban cheaters which they should have been doing on D2 all this time and now... (can't expect they will)
and then 1.10 still isn't quite the best version, so that's just a graphics redoing mostly, nice for shared stash could have easily been patched in anytime . ......... i dont know lolz
i might play it but only if its legit and cheater free and even then, are they gonna keep dealing with cheats or just let it rot after a while?
again I suggest going back to 1.09 I think it is superior. Or maybe do patch progression on seasons or something ^^ that's kinda hard and complicated i guess. why use your high runes if later you can make a OP runeword with them instead, which part of each patch to use, or rather why use a patch older than 1.09 etc
there are some bugs worth fixing like the desync exploit in pvp (on weapon switching) and overall pvp balance seems terrible in 1.10 and revolves around teleporting around spamming a few skills a lot (because of enigma 1.10... etc)
I like the original graphics, they just need to be able to be displayed properly. i dont really expect anything w/e cool if ppl get to play D2 after this who haven't played it yet though it's the best ARPG i know
i'll prob want to dodge it cause i hate giving any money to actiblizz. sorry want to be honest its not against u devs. love d2

No way in hell im paying $40. It should be $15-20 tops FOR BOTH GAMES INCLUDED.

Will i still be able to use my regular D2 is the question, or are non-buyers screwed.

They really milk the cow with this one.

This pretty much sums up my feelings completely. I really doubt they would make an effort to get rid of cheating; if history would be any indicator it will be a couple of weeks until patches are abandoned and bots/mh are everywhere, devs never to be seen again except to throw in a big patch that makes the game worse without addressing exploits. Would be an enjoyable game if there was a legit player-run economy, and rolling back to v1.09 would be nice but a pipe dream imo.

Personally won't buy. They already got my W3R money and can fuck off with that.

I should make a thread in the TL Mafia subforum and link this post. Anyway.. disregard your perspective of an outsider to programming diablo 2, and think how you'd accomplish making the design process worthwhile without money being involved. An industry secret has to be that developers are a playful bunch and that their drug of choice is mafia/werewolf—the information-prerogativist minority vs the self-teaching majority, educated-guessing, party game. Therefore..

Indication that a game's design involved developers playing mafia:
  • Apparent Randomness
            The fact that there are runewords you can't intuit no matter how inspired you are, mechanisms of crafting overpowered items you can't deduce no matter how intelligent, details about areas and ways to find elite magical loot.. not to mention speedrunner-tier tactics and insider knowledge like the 25fps-based cast-rate, farther teleport.. very complex and essentially random stuff you can't possibly know are a giveaway that what the consumer winds up getting is a dead state of a game that died the instant a mafia game among the original developers concluded.
            Unless you are part of the information-trump faction that has to compensate for the adversaries' strength in numbers, and purposefully implements bug-like features into the collective playing field you have no way of orienting yourself on your first playthrough. . which is what it's about, the first couple of times quality-assurance testers get their hands on a play-in-progress product, and have no idea which fellow peers—acting amnesic—are the mafia devs, when they get together at a LAN and compete to find out just that AND, as in in-tandem, play the actual game well.
            Such is the nature of events that have an official chimerical objective [image loading] sweeping the commercial goal of coming up with a best-selling dead-state, posthumous final version, where item property exaggerations, runewords, hidden areas, jest, game-overarching lore and references tell a different tale; one that the people in the interviews are dying to share with the general public (yes, diablo2 resurrected mafia is afoot as we speak)

I just find it hard to believe they can announce this while completely abandoning War3. I don't expect people who love D2 to not be hyped by this but there's something very very off about seeing them get traction for another classic remaster when the one they did barely a year ago is on community life support.

Blizz seems to be striking while the iron is hot with Diablo 2.

D2 mods have recently picked up a lot of players. IIRC path of diablo had almost 15k concurrent during its last season reset. Project Diablo2 had similar numbers as well a few months later.

I cant help but be optimistic. Call me a sucker but I dont mind paying 40 bucks.

This is a very easy pick-up for me. I've spent thousands of hours playing D2, and I'm super psyched for this resurrected version The 40+ minute video with MrLlamaSC was awesome!

I really wish all you guys the best, but I can't help but be skeptical. The way they did WC3 remaster dirty is still too fresh in my mind, and I have absolutely NO FAITH or any benefit of the doubt left to give them (even though it's a different studio doing the remaster). And if for some reason this will be badly received as well, the rats will start jumping ship from this project just as quickly as well.

The StarCraft Remastered was pretty good though, right?

The problem with W3R was that several different teams were working on it. Including some studio from Indonesia that did all the art. To their credit, the art isn't bad, it just doesn't fit the game...

With D2 you have a team that has experience with doing remasters (Tony Hawk remaster is amazing). Judging by the deep dive video and what they've shown so far I'm eager to jump on the bandwagon (despite absolutely hating everything Blizz did since SC2 announcement). Call me naive, but the fire looks awesome and I can't wait to roll a blizzballer in the remaster.
Time is precious. Waste it wisely.

I'm waiting until it's out and word on it is good before I go for it. It looks really good visually, and I would love to go through it with friends again, but I'm not doing pre-orders. I don't do them in general, but definitely not after WC3 happened. They have to earn the trust back.

Well for what it's worth the team that is remastering Diablo 2 is an entirely different studio than the one that worked on WC3. Apparently said studio was let go.

And to say you will never need mules anymore is so wrong.

Problem now is the cd-keys you own (i got 6) will most likely not be usable to launch many clients for muling.

By muling i mean having many accounts filled with items, just as plugy does, infinite space. 10x10 space is not enough.

Also they need to fix a trading system so we can skip d2jsp. And kill bots ofc.

Edit: An idea how to fix this would be as i said a trading system where you could put items on the market for X price (competing vs others prices) and this item wouldnt count towards your space, this way maybe 10x10 space would be enough and the few chars you have per account.

Only question is how you would control this as people could put whatever shit item on the market, maybe it doesnt matter if there is a search function. Maybe there should only be a search function so you have to search for what type of item and sockets and defense etc (stats of item) you want.
