Diablo II: Resurrected - Bolty - 02-20-2021

Blizzard announced today at BlizzConline that Diablo II: Resurrected will be released in 2021, a full HD remaster of the original game and the Lord of Destruction expansion pack with updated cinematics.

I don't suppose they will give us our old characters back?


RE: Diablo II: Resurrected - Bolty - 02-20-2021

You mean....Resurrect...them? :p

I just really want to know if it will be moddable. Considering Blizzard Activisim seems to be highly anti-modders, I doubt it. Truth be told, the only game I play now-a-days is Diablo 2 Median XL. I tried so many current games, and absolutely nothing even comes close to MXL, not by a long-shot! If Resurrection drives up interest in D2, I can almost guarantee MXL will see an influx of players as well.

The crazy sons of bitches finally did it.

It'll depend on the type of mod. Any mod that requires hacking the game won't be possible, since they're bringing it to the modern Battle.net to help combat duping, etc. They are keeping the existing D2 game alive and won't touch the mods that already exist.
Some mods will apparently be easier, since they are moving some of the hard-coded stuff to data.

I have to say - I'm very excited by this news. Smile

Does it make you Mel Brooks very excited from Life Stinks?

Well, I'm not expecting much mod wise, but I mean, a remasterised Diablo II is still something I'll be waiting for!
The only thing that worries me is that the games I'm always excited for are remakes, or continuations of older franchises, like Ace Combat 7 two years ago. Am I just old, or are current games just not that interesting, as most studios just make MMOs with lots of microtransactions or mobile games?

Been lurking in the truest sense of the word for... years...

But I hope all are doing well.

Oh great. Now I have to ask myself if I want to spend hundreds of hours clicking. Do I? Yes of course I do. But should I? I'll be dead in 15 years and I've never been to Peoria.

It's overrated (Peoria that is)

Hello friends!

I can't wait for this.  Between D2:R and D4, I'm looking forward to crawling dungeons with Lurkers again. Smile


RE: Diablo II: Resurrected - Vandiablo - 06-14-2021

Just saw a thing that said the release is planned for September 23.

It's the 24th for me. Sad

Luckily my 24th is your 23rd. Smile

Genuinely excited for this - already pre-purchased. I'll have to keep tabs on this place when it drops to see about some possible MP action.


RE: Diablo II: Resurrected - roguebanshee - 06-23-2021

D2:R is in my "Wait for user reviews" list.

On one hand there's SC:R, on the other there's WC3:R.

FYI, the Diablo II: Resurrected Open Beta is now live!  You can install and play it from Blizzard's Battle.net launcher.

Thanks for reminding me. I was supposed to go away this weekend, so I didn't think I'd get a chance to play it, but now we're in lockdown again, so I can.

The Cinematic Trailer is out today!
