Do we care, Zig Forums?
Well?
never played diablo so nope
no
diablo 2 doesn't need any changes
is anyone even remotely hopeful for it being good quality if they do?
especially after the warcraft 3 bullshit?
no
i'll care when the remaster replaces my regular D2 installation without me asking
You'll have no choice but to care when they somehow overwrite your original shit like they did with WC3
the dreadlord my planet needs me now wemb sums up my interest in a d2 remake
rip
theres a perfectly good remaster already
made in grim dawn
go play it
Yeah, this is the fucking thing right here. Players will care, and not because of excitement, but out of fear Blizzard will find some way to retroactively fuck D2 original.
I'm still amazed such level of incompetence really exists. You think I'd be numb to it from Blizzard by now, but they gotta keep upping the ante.
Blizzard has not only proven they cant make good new games, they also fuck up their old ones, so no. But its not like it matters, people still buy whatever blizzard shits out anyway
Blizzdrones aren't players.
If it's a remaster like the Starcraft remaster I'd be interested. Don't want another remake from those retards tho.
No, because they can't be trusted with that shit. Diablo 2 is fine as it is. At least D2 is much more independent from battle.net than W3, so even if they fuck it up not many people will care because they are already either playing the game on some private server, modded and on private dedicated server for that mod (Median, PoD), or just play single player pluggy.
no because the only good Diablo is Diablo 3, not that clunky piece
also I know it was just a tech demo but d4 looking fucking dreadful, like the only lesson they learned was that d3 was too "colorful" so what do they do? they turn it super bleak and just shitty looking
>buying a modern blizzard game
are all their fans just going through stockholm syndrome?
there's a reason why the term blizzdrone exists
If Blizzard had some talent left sure. Unfortunately that is at least ten years ago.
Every single boss will require keys to unlock their chests. Keys can be bought for 5 for $4.99 (BEST VALUE!)
D2 is my favorite game. I wouldnt even read a news article about a remaster, let alone buy it.
>nu-Blizzard
>removed all boobs because muh wahmen
>removed all skeletons because muh Chy-Nah
>moved to new, slow 3D-engine with terrible mobile-game optics
I think I'd rather eat my toenails.
I used to joke about it but after that WC3: reforged horseshit you really have to be a shit eater to have any faith in Blizzard.
They arent. They said they lost a lot of source code of the game.
Don't forget chromium menus.
>I need Internet strangers to tell me what to think
Reddit pls go
>some based blizzard employee rm -rf'd the source so they couldnt rape it like some starwars remaster
God speed you noble hero
800x600 is pretty weak.
they did an awesome job with SC:remaster at least
they said the exact thing about classic WoW.
Diablo and diabolikes fucking suck
That's a pretty shitty excuse, considering the modding community managed to reverse engineer so much of it. With the millions they have it would be trivial to redo a 3d engine and inject back all the *.mpk in it.
D2 on bnet is a waste of time anyway, and outside of bnet you can just mod resolution.
They only have diversity hires, no passion or skill. They could however discuss how several classes are problematic.
...Did reforged even get any patches?
When I bought it you literally couldn't start the campaign, it was the most surreal game launch I've ever experienced
It did, but a lot of things are still pretty fucked.
It got a bunch of patches at the start with promises of more on the way then it started to slow down drastically, then corona virus happened and now that is their excuse for not having really done many patches in like 4 months.
>Implying Refunded was even made by Blizzard
>you can play diablo 2 classes in the grim dawn campaign
YES
IT'S PERFECT
anyone know how the balance is?
Diablo is trash so no.
They outsourced the models, but putting everything together the way they did is solely Blizzard's fault.
No. I'm past Diablo 2. I loved it as an adolescent but if I want my Diablo-style fix I just play Path of Exile. It is essentially a modern Diablo 2 with new content constantly being haphazardly added to the game. Diablo 2 has a fantastic art style, story, music, and atmosphere but I don't feel like doing any more Baal or Mephisto runs.
no, action RPGs are soulless
>Mods
>Balance
You funny
Everyone who wanted a D2 remaster will be playing Path of Exile 2 by the end of the year.
I highly doubt PoE2 is coming out this year. I would be impressed if it did. Maybe a beta or something but I dunno.
PoE is actually nothing like Diablo 2, it's a soulless 1 button screen clear simulator. PoE is more like Median XL than D2.
People won't care unless they do it like the StarCraft Remaster. And of course they won't go that way since unlike in case of the former mentioned game, they don't have anything to loose with doing a DII remaster. So expect another Reforged situation and your copies forever shat on by their incompetence and Battle.net 2.0.
>1 button screen clear
Choose one of the 100 other viable builds and play properly instead of playing broken streamer metashit. You decide that, it's not the game's fault...
