Yesterday I asked /b/ which Diablo should i buy 2(LoD) or 3(RoS)

>>738867396

Idk man it depends..

Median XL will and is going to kick your ass unless you read alot on the forums

Get the D2SE mod manager off google.

Install plugy which is a stash expansion mod and it grants all the battlenet runewords to single player.

Then pick a class and run through the first act
to get your feet wet. Idk how server popularity is now adays on D2 but single player has been rewarding to me for atleast 10-15 years solid

>>738867618
Samefag here

Good classes to solo singleplayer are :

Summon necro, Shapeshifting druid, Fireball/Frozen orb sorc, or a holy freeze/shock paladin

You don't need mods but if you want to play offline solo (are there even D2 servers anymore?) there's a mod called plugY http://modsreloaded.com/plugy-the-survival-kit that lets you play the game as if you were online and gives you more storage etc.

Or you can just play Path Of Exile. It's free and is what Diablo 3 should have been.

Diablo 2 has one of the best soundtracks ever.

>>738867769
Op here

A lot of people recommended me Sorc so I think ill start with him, thanks for the help
I will be trying to conquer SP before getting into Online :)

>>738867937

Here's what I recommend:

>play Diablo 2 single player. Revel in the music
>play Diablo 2 multiplayer
>play Diablo 3, demo if there is one
>play Path Of Exile
>realize how utter shit Diablo 3 is and how amazing Path Of Exile is

>>738867937
What you can do is level the fire tree until you hit lv 30. And the chick that sells potions in the ACT1 can completely reset all your skill points as a respec when you complete the game completely.. So fire tree up until 30 then spec everything into frozen orb and cold mastery.. That will work untill hell difficulty and then you come across common monsters who have cold immune so you have to hybrid spec to another element. Hope this helped! and that you enjoy my favorite game in the world

I like Diablo 3.

>>738867769
Always start with an orb sorc, then use her for runs until you're able to snag a nigma. Sorc is the only class who gets tele (without a nigma) and isn't super gear dependent (although gear will definitely help her). She'll be the best to start with for quick tele runs and once you have some dope items just respec her... or not! ORB SORC FOR LIFE!

>>738868830

If Diablo 2 never existed Diablo 3 could be considered a good game, but they shit all over the franchise and it took Path Of Exile to make a true spiritual successor to one of the greatest games of all time.

>>738869188
Blizzard is just shitty company nowdays they only care about money. what made them big is back in the days people who worked there and made blizzard name where making games for pure passion and love to what they do money where not the prime goal. now they do games as simple casual PC and child friendly as possible so they can cash as much money possible

>>738869271
You blasphemous whore. (2x)

>>738869646
The company behind path of exile is all about the money too.
Your thoughts on this?

Derailed by pay-to-win arguments.
Huh

>>738869646
Blizzard unfortunately made a successful game called World of Warcraft which changed everything.
At that moment they realized that if you simplify everything and make it shallow all of the kids will love it. Add some "rewards" like as if you are training a dog and give them the illusion of that skill is required and they'll never leave.

SC2, D3, OW are all based on that concept.
Take something that has been done before, add nothing new and dumb it down.

>>738869271
this this this this this, i played a lot of 2, i've played a lot of 3 and POE still shits on both of them. POE is literally D2s spiritual successor

>>738869743
no its not they have cosmetics shop ? so what they have to make money somehow you know they have to eat and stuff also no one force you to buy cosmetics and they dont affect the gameplay also game is free

Blizzard games worth 60+$ and they charge you for every DLC you pay monthly for WoW also you buy the game last time i watched they wanted to charge money for the new diablo 3 hero the necro. Card stone is pure pay to win. Heroes of the storm sell skins for 10$ also the game is shit casual and no one care about it. OW is casual as fuck and worth shitload they will probably charge for dlc in the future.
Shitty jew company with shit games almost no one from the old blizzard work there any more

Lol get D3 you faggot only people that pls D2 are angry fat neckbeard hipsters. All of the issues with D3 were fixed. It was great when it came out and is better than ever now. Fucking edgy ass teens trying to be edgy by playing some fucking Stone Age game. Sure D2 was fun back in the day but cmon

Path of exile fucking blows lol

>>738870368
You pay monthly for Diablo?
That would be the only question and I heard that POE did stopped selling items that helped the gameplay, but- it is large enough now, so I can say they /are/ eating enough, no?

>>738870248
at the start WoW was something new and different in the mmorpg genre. shit went to shit with this game later on also almost no one from the OG staff work on the game any more

>>738870408
>It was great when it came out
been playing since the closed beta and i can tell you that your're completely wrong

I am still playing D2 (with an D3 intercourse of about 1 to 3 months playing time) because IT IS SIMPLY FUCKING AMAZING! Barbarian is my favourite class, necro, pala, druid, assassin are cool, too...

>>738870606
you stupid or just young?
you pay for biablo
you get poe for free and you can play without spending a single $ on it
thats the difference you can play POE absolutely free
and if they are big now and get money from people who want buy cosmetics good for them since they made one of the best game in the genre

PoE had an incredible amount of character customization and I've got 2600+ hours into it. The biggest downfall is the reliance on trading. If you're not willing to spend a shit ton of time learning and monitoring how the economy changes (which happens fast) you'll end up poor and unable to buy the super rare items that you'll never have drop. I love the game but if you can't no-life it you'll be frustrated.

>>738870774

So you are judging it off of the closed beta? Fucking retard. They made the game darker with ROS and they got rid of auction house. Have fun playing your 16 bit piece of shit you hipster edgy lord. I bet you listen to Sun 0)))))) to

>>738870408
Sorry man D3 is great but it'll never be better than D2. The loot/trading system is shit and completely ruined what was amazing about D2, the player based living economy.

>>738870617
Other than the graphics, it was a simplified version of OU with no PvP, even on PvP servers.

Took them a 6 months to implement a simple PvP system that was pointless and another 6 months to implement a PvP system that was no skill and all grind.

The only thing Blizzard did great was the cinematic and VA.

>>738871074
>So you are judging it off of the closed beta?

>>738870774

ok so you're retarded, that explains everything

im just happy Blizzard movie bombed and they wont do Star craft, OW movie or another WoW

Play a necromancer -- become a virtual God, destroy anything that opposes your might with an army of skeletons and golems to do your bidding while you cast nasty spells from a distance.

They fixed that though. And I am not saying d 3 was better than d 2 when it came out, but if you are looking for a dungeon crawler to get into in 2017 why would you go for a game that is over ten years old? D 3 is just more more modern and frankly better. D 2 is stale and the same builds due to the game not being updated since the early 2000s

I agree that D2 is definitely stale at this point, but the D3 loot system still sucks. I realize you can trade as things drop, but there is still no trading or player driven economy. Some of the best times I had on D2 were just hopping from game to game, trading my way up until I was rich (in gear/runes).

>>738867769

…until anon gets to Hell difficulty and then it doesn't matter which class is chosen because, at that point, it's necessary to have a party just to proceed past the Blood Moor.

I agree and I'm not saying d 3 was better than d 2 when they both launched. But to get into a game now ( not circa 2000s) d 3 would be the way to go. There are going to be even less people on d 2 if he is looking for a community

Oh yeah D2. I remember being a fag. D3 is tons of fun, don't let "muh D2" crowd nostalgia you to death.

>>738871958

Soloing all the bosses in the game in under 5 minutes ain't "playin' the game".

If true (it's not) how much of the game did you really enjoy?

I measure based on enjoyment, not based on how fast I could run away from every monster in the game and then cheat past the bosses.

d2 ladder just reset roughly a month ago.
check out d2jsp.org
trading made much easier

>>738874095
um...you don't understand how to play diablo. you beat the game, neat, beat it with all classes, cool...then get all of them to lvl 99...fun...but that's where your endgame seems to be.
for me after i got beyond that point i began to collect all the best gear by using what's called magic find % and being in full games id repeatidly beat the bosses over and over and over again for better gear, then trade that gear for currency like soj's or better gear...so on and so forth - the end game was the economy. so instead of say 'cheat the bosses' maybe you should understand the full extent of what im talking about instead of act like you are some superior gamer.

or maybe that's all too complex for you.

>>738874322
Truth. The only thing to do after beating the game was to grind for level 99 then farm to get the best elite unique items. All of that lead to being the best in PVP. He probably doesn't understand it because he wasn't there.
