Brings back good memories from the late 90's.  Good times, good times.

As long as it doesn't get the same treatment that Blizzard gave warcraft reforged last year, it should be good.

To be honest, if I had a choice I'd want the first game remastered like this first, I just loved the atmosphere and music in the first game more...

I feel this way too. I wonder if it was just the novelty of it bc it seems most liked #2 the best.

Anybody know if it is following the same rules as the original D2?

The sorceress in Hell mode was brutal if not impossible.  First act you were facing monsters with multiple immunities or resistances.

The earlier versions were not like that.

Sounds like the game mechanics are almost 100% the same as the original D2, so I would tend to think yes. I never made it past act 1 nightmare with the sorceress because of that.

That blows.

The original D2 wasn't like that, it was something they added into the patches down the line.

V1.14? Either way, it sucks.

I think it was 1.07, or whenever the LoD expansion was put out.

I don't remember it being in LOD at the start, but maybe it was.  Very long ago

I don't remember it being there before LoD but I remember it being there after LoD but I also don't remember much of anything from 2 decades ago so who knows

Looks like it was patch 1.07 though


  • Monsters in Nightmare/Hell difficulty, have higher Resistances, Hit Points, and lower Attack Ratings than before.

Browsing the changes they made it brutal.

I think 1.10 is what did it for me.

it was a bit rough against elite packs. played dual wield barb with scepters. i wonder if it was tuned higher damage.
overall it was fun.

I can relive the fun of losing all my stuff when running the council.

I still remember some of the early bugs and poor design decisions.  The bug that made %damage modifiers not apply to bows.  Skills like jab targeting a huge number of enemies at high skill level and effectively getting you killed due to animation lock.

Looks fun though.  Likely more fun than D3.
