With all the news of a potential remaster, does Diablo 2 still hold up still /v/? I've been having a crazy urge buy it and to go back and play it, because I haven't played it in 15 years, and I just don't know the answer to this question.

Path of Diablo is basically a better Diablo II. Unlike most mods / private servers it doesn't completely change the game. It's basically D2 if it'd kept getting genuine updates and adjustments over time.
Still playable for sure.
You might want to check out Path of Exile though. Very good diablo-like game. Takes some getting into, but it's free to play and more modern. Has a big update coming in a few weeks.
>>380888284
The original holds up, so I got no clue why you're even asking.
>>380889873
Oh come on. That's a bit much. Diablo 1 doesn't hold up nearly as well.
>>380890063
You're stupid. Opinion discarded.
Diablo 2 and AoE 2 are the epitome of games that aged like wine. Use a high resolution hack and play
>tfw I only played it on normal and as a Barb
What are some other fun classes?
>>380890386
HD modding D2 allows you to offscreen everything. It's pretty much cheating.
>>380888284
Playable.
But it's like a 6/10 now.
Boring-ass game where you spam 1-3 skills for most builds, and shitty-ass clumsy movement
>>380888284
very grindy and graphics suck shit
other than that, 10/10 game
>>380890537
D2 does Necromancer better than practically any other game. But it's slow-starting and bosses are a pain.
All the classes as pretty fun and unique though.
>>380890537
>>380889684
I'll give it a look.
>>380890537
I was always a fan of Amazon but idk either, I only played a couple.
>>380889543
Thanks anon, I'll check it out. Do you know if you can install it if you own the base game via battle.net and not from a CD?
I'm not a fan of the new graphics for SC remasted. They should do some nearest neighbour scaling and allow for widescreen resolutions, that is all
>>380888284
It's dirt cheap
Diablo 2 is the best arpg.
Niggers don't know about PvP.
Jsp is your life line.

>Let's play DII aga
>ActIII
Nope, nope nope, nope: nope; nope - nope.
Limited res is a pain and at least for me forced me to run it in windowed mode while doing some other stuff. Was fun - looking forward to a proper high res release without all those over the top stuff those wacky modders always add.
>remaster it with cartoony blizzard style
see folks? it was always cartoony!
>>380891401
This is why I'm boycotting the fuck outta Blizzard.
For the retards that argue the definition of boycott due to autism every single fucking time:
>to engage in a concerted refusal to have dealings with (a person, a store, an organization, etc.) usually to express disapproval or to force acceptance of certain conditions
I miss the days where these things provided actual descriptions of all the skills like this one does
>>380891710
have some rage fuel
>>380890839
Agreed. Always had the best time making my go-to Skelemancer build and just being the all-around most versatile debuffer in the party.
Large skeleton army if partied with ranged/caster classes to keep them alive, Life Tap to quickly heal melee classes, Amp Damage for increased physical damage and breaking 99% of all Physical Immune monsters, Corpse Explosion to clear the screen, Decrepify and Clay Golem to fuck up boss speeds. Top it off with a decently-geared Might merc from Act 2 and you can make your way through anything.
Shit. Now I want to play again.
>>380890194
fucking please
diablo 1 is hot fucking garbage quit being a nostalgiafag
>>380892135
Kek.
>>380892135
Makes me sick to my stomach.
Just end my life already. I'm done. Get me off this ride.
>>380893380
Dude, it's in my top five. Nothing has ever come close in terms of atmosphere. Literally Claustrophia & Atmosphere & Dope Music & Fun: The Video Game.
Go ahead and neck yourself.
>>380889543
>>380889684
Since you are shilling the game hard i want you to confirm a post i saw couple of days saying that there is now like a habbo hotel shit in the game or smt were you can customize it with furniture 'n shit. Sounds comfy. Is it like that?
>>380893739

I'm not watching your shit videos.
You're literally retarded if you think walking instead of running makes the game unplayable. Other than that, it's the exact same as Diablo II.
Go ahead and buy a gun today. Next time you're feeling suicidal I want you to have the means.

>Path of Diablo is basically a better Diablo II
not true
