Diablo II: Resurrected
" Depends. If you never played it before you can surely spend the 40$ in a new gameplay experience instead of PoE supporter pack. It has improved modern graphics and QoL but be warned the base game was not changed beyond that (still uses the same engine underneath) and some things may annoy you since its mostly a 2000/2001 experience in regards of user interface or gameplay(speak endgame and flask/potion management). Masterpiece of 3.16 lore
"A mysterious figure appears out of nowhere, trying to escape from something you can't see. She hands you a rusty-looking device called the Blood Crucible and urges you to implant it into your body." Only usable with Ethanol Flasks |

I remember the follower AI as being pretty bad, but it's even worse than I thought.

" Indeed but makes sense considering they still use the old engine underneath with the often buggy grid system, especially noticable in the Maggot Lair. Masterpiece of 3.16 lore

" I've played it before and it was super addictive. Never imagined I be spending 4+ hour/day on video games. D2 is the main reason why I started playing POE because D3 was so meh... |

The biggest thing is that when a rare ring/amulet/helm or whatever drops you think it could be the best thing ever.
In PoE that cannot really happen because crafting with influence mods is just vastly superior. So the raaw loot hunt in D2 is alot higher as opposed to PoE where it mainly is a currency/splinter loot hunt. |

" I just did Maggot Lair today, and yeah, the AI was painful to behold. I also came across some weird bug where twice my follower just somehow "died" (he was definitely technically dead as I had to pay to resurrect him). Both times he was on full or almost full health and there were no enemies around or any other damage sources. He just vanished from the screen in mid walk. No sound effects or death animations. Just one moment he was there, then he wasn't. Despite that though, I am enjoying D2R. Actually, even more than I enjoyed D2 back when I first played it.

" Never had this issue. I'm using the A2 mercs. " I'm also offline mode since their servers are fucked. Which is hilarious btw. The remake was made by another corp and the only thing that blizz has to do was maintaining the servers. Turns out even that is too much;) Masterpiece of 3.16 lore

I was blessed they gave me a refund. I made it to like lvl 87 on an assasin (solo, but did trade a few items on jsp)
Blizzard relies on its forums for tech issues and support. If they banned you 6 years ago for speaking the truth about early d3 you cannot get support for a product you purchased. Worked out great for me :) |
