The engine is for sure better in D3 but the content is nothing compared to D2.

>>383682045
Actually I'm playing it now, and Diablo 2 is only Nostalgia Zombie. Besides superior to godly level art design and OST, there's nothing good in this game. It's literaly Potion picker Simulator. Items are meaningless, literaly upgrade first skill to 20 and win, #roadtohellmeme. It's not like Diablo 3 is good, it's bad, but actually Gameplay is much funnier than Diablo 2. I'm playing D2 right now only because of Art Design, Soundtrack, and maybe VA(kurwa country here), but for sure not for gameplay.

Diablo 1 is by far the darkest and most adult of the storylines. Diablo 2, comes a reasonable second but with much less claustrophobia. Diablo 1's genius was it's fixation on Tristram and the inescapable dread that emanated from the Cathedral, something the village NPC's were more than happy to testament to. As soon as the Diablo series became more geographically broad, it also watered down the atmosphere clearly present in Tristram. That village was cursed, and no other place in the lore ever came close.

Another thing to consider is that our standards SHOULD be higher for Diablo 3.

It's far newer, the company has more funds and more experience. They should have delivered a product that was unequivocally better, not up to debate on a Taiwanese catfish gutting forum.

Every time I see someone play PoE, it's them mindlessly stomping everything with absolute ease. Where's the difficulty? In D2, you're always kept somewhat in check by immunities in hell. Unless you're a hammerdin.

>d3 is fast and fluid

D3 doesn't even have pvp, you're grinding against predictable as fuck monsters endlessly, what's fun about that? The only fluid involved is the blood the game sucks out of you.

And unless there's a necromancer with +$230% movespeed buffs and enigma going off every half a second I simply cannot understand what the fuck is fast about this game either.

How do you justify playing such garbage?
D2 was good for it's time.
D3 will be shit forever.
>>
>>383694125
Let me guess, what you see when you "see someone play PoE", is one of a dozen streamers who do nothing in their life but play the game, playing with some easymode memebuild, and you've only ever seen people farimng low level maps.

There's plenty of challenge in the game, I haven't made a character that can consistently kill Uber Atziri 2 years after she's been released.

Diablo 1 was the best of the series, not even being a hipster about it
Diablo 1 was more unforgiving and made you tread more carefully, without mentioning that you didn't had to deal with such cancerous bloated loot system

Stop right there faggot, don't say "we", there's no "we" here, just you and your shit opinion.

Diablo 3 is "smoother and faster" because it abandons the depth and minutae of D2 in favor of a cheap, easy experience. D3 is the game you play for a few days and then get bored, whereas D2 is the game you play for years and years and still keep coming back to. The gameplay and combat itself is satisfying, the atmosphere is incredible, the music is some of the best VG has ever produced, and the multiplayer alone fucks D3 into the dirt. If you actually think that this trash game holds half of a shit-covered candle to D2, you have clearly never played PvP, made an awesome character with super rare gear, or engaged in the myriad social activities. You are a normie, and you are retarded. I'm glad you are enjoying your game made for literal autists, but it is not better.

Look at this faggot. Look at this faggot and laugh. "kek klicking ain't gamepluh bro". Really, because it's how you interact with just about... every single PC game ever made. What kind of autistic logic are you even using to form this cumstained opinion? The gameplay isn't "clicking", the gameplay is good combat, finding items that aren't total trash, runewords, jewels, good crafting, PvP, trading, 8-player games, good community, good art style, good music, good story. None of this is found in D3. D3 is a shit game. End of story.

Wrong faggot. Watching waves of enemies run at you while you mindlessly hold down a button is not gameplay, because that is the definiton of Diablo 3. It sounds like you play D3 on console and have never played a PC game in your life, so it isn't surprising that you are mentally retarded. I guarantee you have even't played D2.
>>
>>383701097
Controlling the movement of a character in a 3 dimensional space while you dodge and time individual attacks/blocks is gameplay though

The only good isometric action gameplay of all time is in the first Witcher game which ironically is declared by the masses (who are wrong, but still) to have some of the worst combat of all time. And it's just Diablo combat but fixed.

They're still harder and also have more mechanical complexity
Even in something fairly basic like dark souls you're at least running around with something like ten different attacks plus parrying/blocking/rolling/sprinting/spells/items, in diablo you mainly have a one-size-fits-all damage dealer and a few support skills
It's commendable to blizzard north that they still managed to make combat fun and satisfying despite being so simple, but I really think it's holding the genre back

Okay bud, let's hear your three favorite games. I want to know what's going on inside the head of a faggot who can't enjoy an awesome game like this, consider it a case study.

>Clicking on enemies as the only form of interaction besides special cool down abilities
Are you actually autistic? I'm not even being insulting, I'm seriously curious, because only someone on the spectrum could make this kind of argument. It's a fucking action RPG retard, whether you are "clicking" on an enemy or pushing a button, you are going to press some kind of button that makes your character attack something. No fucking shit. That isn't what the entire game is about. The game is about finding hordes of good loot, crafting unique items, making unique runewords, exploring a randomly generated environment with all kinds of treasures and shrines, fighting other people in PvP, rushing bosses together, tons of shit. If you are seriously too stupid to understand how the game isn't just about "clicking on enemies" the entire time, then I'm glad, because you don't deserve to enjoy a badass game like Diablo 2. Like I said, you are probably 19, and Dark Souls was probably your first ARPG which you consider to be the epitome of the genre.

I didn't say which one is more "harder", they are really different genres so is comparing apples and orange. I said (probably to the consoletard) that they don't really require "skill". Souls series are easy, you just need to practice them.

Kinda fun. Equipment seems to have went from stat slaves to game changing. Kinda funny nuking bosses in a few hits, but that's usually pretty typical for early game in this genre.

If I were to say my favorite games, based on combat alone, I'd say Doom, God of War 2, and Max Payne 3

Diablo 2 felt like playing an RTS with a single unit. I also can't stand assfaggots games for this purpose, because I love Rts games like age of empires and company of heroes.

No I was 21 and yes the memories are relatively blurry. I remember trying to think about how I could rebind the controls to minimize clicking and realizing that the special abilities could be tied to hot keys but movement and combat were both clicking.

Not awful taste, all three of those games are peak for their genre of 3d combat. Doom is impeccable, God of War 2 is fun as fuck with great boss battles and only the most autistic DMC kids shit on it, and Max Payne 3 has the most fluid and skillful TPS combat of all time

I can agree with you saying that ARPGs have dull combat but Doom is very much the same. Barely any aiming or any other kind of mechanical skill. It mostly boils down to knowing enemy spawns, placement and not getting blocked. KINDA SIMILIAR TO ARPGS HMM.

No I really don't know what you're talking about. You're distilling a game filled with intricacies to the the simplest definition possible and then crying because everyone else is doing the same thing. I guess all the time I spent crafting unique items, trading with people, gambling, combining gems and doing tons of other shit was just "clicking on monsters and hoping I get better items". Your opinion is fucking dirt and you only played the game for 3 hours, I don't even know why I'm bothering with you.

No, the skill in doom is movement, knowing enemy patterns, and using level design + movement to not get hit while you manage ammunition and other pickups. Just because there's no vertical aiming in doom doesn't mean there's no skill.

Correct. He didn't want to completely out himself as a degenerate spermling that grew up with the PS2 so he threw Doom into the mix to show he's a "real" gamer. How you can possibly be stupid enough to enjoy Doom and then say Diablo 2 is nothing but clicking on enemies is the height of autism.

Not him, I play the game, it's objectively true.

Each class has 2 builds. The farming Build, and the Pushing build. That's it. They may vary based on which one gets overbuffed into nonsense territory, but it's always the same. It's been this way since about season 2, where they kept reintroducing fuckoverpowered builds with stupid ass stat bloat like +1000% damage or some shit instead of relying on stacking subsets for small ass sequential 25% buffs.

I dont think that I tried every weapon but I think no. To attack or use a skill you had to stop. Some weaponskills let you move but they had cooldowns.

>>383705543
Yeah, sadly it changed with D2 and internet being common in homes.
>>
>>383705505
there's a difference between "you must play this build" and "there is a best build" though.

You can objectively succeed with multiple builds. There will always be a best build. This is obvious and unavoidable and not worth stating.

Diablo II also had a build for each class that was far better at a given task than any other build. The difference is that in DIII, two specs that have a rune or two different from each other will still be referred to as the same build, whereas in DII there just isn't that level of variety.

>>383705654
Not him, but I created my own build using the Inarius set with the Necromancer and it's fun, if not a one trick pony. Bad for pushing, but great for farming Torment 10-13, it's basically an in-geom speed teleporting bone armor build with Nemesis bracers, going around popping all shrines, 1 or 2 shotting with my 0 second cooldown bone armors before teleporting and fucking everything over.

I use Rigor Mortis for Poison=Slow%, the ring for +100% damage to slowed, +400% instead to Slowed+Stunned, while utilizing the poison stun rune on bone armor to activate both effects after just one cast on a 0 second cooldown.

The speed is outrageous in public games, but is absolute dogshit when trying to push higher Grifts.

I just told you. Read your skillgem. Read what keywords support it. Weapon type? Crit? Check on wiki how if it has special properties. Browse through uniques to see if theres something that fits. Pick a class depending what stats you need for the skill gem or if you need specific nodes. Try to reach the most effecient nodes (game has many low-effecient "noob bait" nodes). Pick every hp/es node on the way depending on your build because not dying is better than dying.

not him but "positioning yourself" is just "did I not one hit the enemy, ok, I will walk backwards and cast again"

I suspect samefagging. Anyway, positioning is not about resetting cooldowns it's about making sure that less enemies at a time are hitting you and that you don't get stuck in a bad spot. Also most skills didn't have cooldown in Diablo 2, only the more powerful ones.

Eat shit.

>>383706906
It's actually basically just skills that spwn a lot of particles/sprites, like lightning web or plague javelin
>>
>>383706741
This is 100% disingenuous and you know it. I can't think of a better term for it, but the real time movement and combat of doom change everything completely. Handling the movement of your player through directional buttons is intensely more satisfying than clicking on a place for your character to move to

yes so cast, move back, cast, move back, cast, repat to infinite. and im not him. I fucking hated doom. Its biggest nostalgia goggles game on the planet. comparing it to an actual 3d fps is a disgrace to the whole genre. while sure it was revolutionary and stuff it just doesnt change the fact that the game is inferior in present.

>>383682006
One of my biggest gripes was Belial in D3

Hes called the lord of lies, yet his underlings seemed utterly flabberghasted that he might lie to them, they cannot fathom that the literal embodiment of lies may lie or deceive them

Also theres a big mystery around who belial is hiding as, yet the child kings guards are all demons, he reveals later he can do magic shit and is involved in what you are doing, yet everyones shocked when he is revealed to be belial? Why couldn't they have made the town guard woman belial? Literal shit

I don't understand what you are trying to do here by simplifying what's stated here. We already established that the "Move back, cast, move back" thing you keep repeating also involves moving in a particular manner so you don't get cornered. If you don't like that type of gameplay neither in this game nor in doom then that's just your preference. It's still more complex than you make it out to be.

The irony of this post.

My bro in law just started playing Diablo 2 for the first time in his life a month ago. He's absolutely in love with it. He even tried D3 first and felt extremely meh about it, but D2 has consumed his free time.

The game is still amazing. It will never age because 2D art is timeless. The gameplay is solid fun and rewarding. You cannot say the same about D3 which looked like ass out of the gates and looks even worse now. Has an awful fucking story which after 2 just comes off as pretentious and SJW pandering (Leah and Tyrael becoming a nig). It's just boring bland garbage.

I get ya, (for me) there's more left to imagination because of the low res graphics made in a realistic style. Diablo 3 is more on the cartoony side.

It's not retarded. Click controls are clunky and slow as fuck.

>>
>>383711513
>>383711513
So the combat of the entire genre is uninteresting and dull do to the lack of skill

I'm sure that if you do t mind the click shit that leveling your build and managing loot IS skillful and interesting, but the gameplay itself is too dull in my opinion

I don't mind it if people just dislike Grim Dawn. Like, whatever, go for it.

But what I don't understand is when people dislike Grim Dawn but like Titan Quest. Grim Dawn is just Titan Quest made better in every way except for aesthetic. Titan Quest has every problem Grim Dawn has otherwise. Like what the fuck guys, compare it to D3 or PoE sure, but why the hell would you pick Titan Quest over Grim Dawn?

No one that plays D3 gives a single shit about PoE. I have played them both and given them an equal amount of time, D3 is simply better, smoother, and brings more gratification to the table.

Though I do like the fact that if you haven't paid into any micros in PoE you look like a walking trash can the entire time.

What's your point?
D3 doesn't have pvp, they added a shitty arena that allows you to enable pvp mode, nobody uses it though. Mainly because the game is not balanced for pvp and never will.

I think D3 is an excellent roguelike if you play on HC on consoles

True, pvp in D2 was awsome though, if you liked enigma that is.
You had a weird kind of balance when everyone was just blinking around.
D3 doesn't have that, it's just a mess.

>>383710341
grim dawn, median is autistic as fucked and there are 2 major issues:

a) you play single player and have to grind for months to get very specific drops that let you progress once you hit a certain point
b) you play online and cannot use any mods, no PlugY, no resolution mod etc. or you get autobanned, so you have to play in absolute shit tier resolution that is actually buggy with MXL installed, but you can trade with other people to get items you need faster than self found SP. but no PlugY means your stash space is tiny. MXL is trash because of these 2 things.

>>383721357
D2 didn't have a pvp safe space
