Couple reviews I read said they were big fans of the original D2, but think they'd prefer playing D3 given the choice. @Blackhalo Gameplay is amazing. I was able to create a game and got through 1 tower run. Now I can't make another game. As long as they can fix these issues it will be amazing. But everyone responsible for the launch of this game should be given the dead rogue treatment. |

Can this game be played single player or do I have to join a group?

People are still reporting offline chars are losing levels. Holding off on playing today.

For me personally, I played the original D2, and I really like D2R gameplay. Other than a couple conveniences and better graphics, IMO it is original 1.10 LOD. Started with a bnet character, got to lvl 4 and logged out for lunch. When I came back I was level 2 and couldn't create a game. Said fuck it and just made an offline character, level 12 now. |

I'm loving this. The game is absolutely gorgeous. Feels like the old times. I love randomly pressing G and seeing how far we've come

I didn't realize my graphics card wasn't up to par, lol. It doesn't meet the requirements but the game still runs smooth with everything turned down.
Load times are the only bad thing at the moment. I had to get help with Duriel, because playing by myself I was dead before Tal Rasha's chamber loaded. Going to order a new laptop Monday, this is fun so far. |

Made it to lvl 18 last night, HC
Only had to do 3 countess runs to find TAL + ETH for armor. Found a 10fcr/10mf% ring ?? Liking the graphics, act 2 is progressing nicely for my hammerdin |

Played it on the Switch Lite last night on the couch, fantastic work done to port this to a console.
Spending the weekend playing it on PC with friends starting on Saturday. We're going into it blind with new characters and classes we're not familiar with, should be fun over Discord voice channel |

I played old D2 for years...since then I've gotten old and don't know anything about computers any more. Can any of you tell me if I'm wasting my money on this game with the laptop I currently have? If I can't run it I won't buy it until I get a "gaming" computer or whatever I need to run it right. Just don't want to waste the money if my stuff isn't up to snuff.
This is what I have https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06296498 According to online, this is what I need. I'm not confident I'm up to par on the video card. Operating System: Windows 10.

The game runs fine though with all the settings turned down. |

View Quote You should be fine, might as well just buy something new and better (laptop-wise) unless you only plan on playing for a few weeks and quitting after that. I realize you're 'old' but that's a relative term. Do you have any of the modern consoles? PS4, Xb1, etc? You can play it on those and it's even more 'old'-people friendy with a controller. |

View Quote I gave up on consoles after Playstation put double joysticks on their controllers...so PS1 was my last console. I do have my Sega Genesis set up on the TV right now with NHL95 in it. I may get a new laptop, D2 is the only game I'm interested in. |

Hello everyone,
We’ve paused the process of restarting servers to implement the character lock fix to investigate and monitor why those affected players cannot create games. We intend to resume this process later but don’t have a specific ETA right now. We’re aware that some characters remain stuck in closed games. We are working to return those characters to a playable state as soon as possible. Thank you. Just posted on the D2R forums. |

Thanks for the reminder about farming the Countess for runes!

i did 3 or 4 runs on countess and got a few runes. what runes am i looking for. never did rune words when i originally played.
up to act 5 now and level 28. |

I'm gonna be the cheapskate and bitch about price. $40 seems kinda jacked for an old game reissue with smoothed-out graphics. I guess I just expected it'd be around a $20 price point.

View Quote Depends on what specific item you're trying to enchant. WARNING Runes have to be inserted in order. If you mess up, more rune/ item farming. Example: To make the Leaf staff, ( Tir and Ral runes ) Tir must be inserted first, then Ral. Also, if a runeword uses 3 runes, the item must have the exact amount of sockets. You can't shove 3 runes in a 6 socketed item. https://www.wowhead.com/guides/diablo-2-runewords-types-bonuses-sockets |
