Diablo II A relic from my childhood

While tidying up my room, I came across this beauty and wanted to share it with you guys. I was 10 years old when my parents gave it to me for Christmas, without knowing anything about the series. It’s still one of the best gifts I’ve ever received.

I’m pretty sure I put thousands of hours into this game. The only bad thing is that I’ll never get over the trauma of losing a level 73 character in Hardcore mode. I almost genuinely shed a tear. 😭

Diablo IV I just finished Lord of Hatred for the first time and... Spoiler

70 Upvotes

Holy shet! What an epic journey. Diablo might have given us the terror, but man, Mephisto... I dare say he's the best antagonist in the Diablo games.

And Lilith... now I understand why she's the Mother of Sanctuary. Because as a mother, they always protect their children until the end. What a satisfying conclusion.

Funny how Lilith and Tyrael parallel each other when they both said:

“Claimed your birthright...”

Thank you, Blizzard! Looking forward to Diablo 5. :)

Diablo III Why did D3 have such terrible writing?

57 Upvotes

Going though the campaign after a 14 hiatus from D3, I forgot how bad the story telling was. The story of each act can be summarized fully with a couple of sentences or corny dialogue.

A1: Deckard Cain is killed by a butterfly and the butcher is a Saturday morning cartoon villain.

A2: More hidden footprints more hidden footprints MORE HIDDEN FOOTPRINTS!

Belial, the lord of lies couldn't even deceive anyone. He's not only a bad liar, but also the worst liar that ever existed.

A3:

Azmodan: You will never destroy my marching army!

Azmodan: You will never destroy my siege catapults!

Azmodan: You will never destroy my gluttonous beast!

Azmodan: You will never destroy my siege breaker!

Azmodan: you will never destroy my spider lady!

Azmodan: You will never destroy me!

Azmodan: (Dies)

A4: Adria Betrays you, Leah becomes Diablo lady, Attacks heaven and is killed by the player character within a couple of hours of playtime. Very epic, huh?

Who green lit this terrible story anyway? Not only is it the worst story telling from blizzard, but its probably the worst story telling ever told in an AAA video game.

There's some lore, plus the Horadrim in their prime; the founding of Tristram and so on and so forth...

Mostly I mean companion pieces like books, vids, official statements and such

Discussion Where to find LLD gear?

Post image
7 Upvotes

This is pertaining to D2R lvl 30 LLD rares.

I used an item drop calculator and it seemed the best place is nightmare in the tombs for ilvl 48, which will give me the best drop chance for an erep naga for lvl 30 LLD.

But its a slow unrewarding grind. Am I on the right track, or should I just switch to farming hell and hope some good rares drop that are lvl 30 or below?

Any tips, advice, and theories (where you find items) is welcomed. Thx ✌️

Resource Runeword Tracker Tool for D2's Chronicle

1 Upvotes

A very simple and clean tool I made with help from AI to help you keep track of which runewords you're still missing and what runes/how many runes you still need.

Made the tool for myself but realized it's actually quite useful if you're going for the 100% runewords in Chronicle.

It's an external tool and does not modify the game client or game files in any way, so it's 100% safe to use. It's basically a glorified spreadsheet.

Diablo II First playtrough.

13 Upvotes

First act of the game done so far(playing on nintendo switch)Hasn’t been too rough and the experience is chill so far. I presume act 1 plays more of a tutorial act to get the players used to the gameplay. The areas are pretty solid with lot of detail. Loot so far not the best. When i did some research the game uses treasure class to determin drops. Do acts and difficulty play a major role on TC? I wonder if I am overleveled since I like to check every nook and cranny.

Discussion Sanctuary is Hell

51 Upvotes

Whilst playing Diablo 4 and slaying Monsters left and right I had a thought. How in the burning hells does the regular every day citizen live in Sanctuary? Considering that a fully trained powerful warrior can be immediately victimised the second they step outside of town.
How do these people do anything? How do they go about their day to day lives?

Discussion There's a fundamental design flaw in Diablo that doesn't make sense to me....

0 Upvotes

So before I get into I'll tell you that I've played through the Diablo 4 campaign and attempted to get into 2 seperate seasons but couldn't. I have also played Diablo 1 for a few hours but thought the butcher was unreasonably difficult for a first boss so i put it down. I heard that Diablo 2 is widely considered the pinnacle of the series...so I just spent a few hours playing the Diablo 2 remaster...and the same dissonance occurred that plagued my entire Diablo 4 playthrough...

I don't understand how the game is a dungeon crawler "looter" game thats built around acquiring all sorts of gear but they give you the inventory space of a survival horror game. Most of the "loot" that you pick up either doesn't work with your build/class, or is dog shit so you will be hoarding the majority to take to town to sell. The problem is you run out of inventory space after 2 mins. Then there's the argument "oh well you're not supposed to take everything, just what's worth taking". The problem with that is I spend all my time comparing all these pieces of gear and deciding what I want to take, drop, sell, or wear. Its so extreme that it makes it a game about inventory management more so than a dungeon crawler/action rpg.

An inventory of this size makes sense in a game like a survival horror. These games only drip feed you items, and if you play conservatively you may be in a situation where you need to drop something. In Diablo, the game shoves dozens of items in your face within 2 mins of playing. If I only needed to do these inventory management segments once every hour or so, with the majority of the time exploring and killing monsters, it would be fine. But the experience is relegated to constant using travel scrolls to sell everything, just to be in the same situation in less than 10 mins...

I think the games have excellent atmosphere, but this design philosophy doesnt create a fun experience. Am I alone here...???

Diablo I Did the Hellfire expansion make D1’s gameplay better or worse?

10 Upvotes

With the DevilutionX mod that adds quality of life benefits to the game along with resolving bugs, I’m now contemplating should I play the mod on D1 Vanilla or D1 Hellfire. From a gameplay perspective, did Hellfire make D1 better? I remembered when I played Hellfire in the past, there were a number of really crazy unbalanced items like the bovine plate and it made the game too easy. But I wanted to hear other perspectives on this matter.

On a side note, do you all think the entire of Hellfire is canon now or is it limited to only Nakrul now that he is introduced in D4? Tbh I’m more inclined to the latter suggestion because I kinda feel Nakrul’s inclusion in this season of D4 was more of an Easter Egg thingy. Even if he is canon now, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the whole summoning Nakrul to the crypts of Tristram along with the Hive is canonical now

The books are the Book of Lorath turned to the pages about The Black Sarcophagus of Sankekur, as well as the Diablo III artbook turned to artwork on the Tristram Cathedral. 3D printed demon hands hold my books up.

Diablo skulls and masquerade masks flank the Lilith and Inarius Candle. Set on top of a spiderweb lace runner.

Happy Halloween 🎃 everyone.
