Diablo 2 Resurrected

[Singularity7]

some of the changes there would seem decent, but I think it should be something like if 70% of the population agrees with it or something like that if Blizzard wanted to go that route.

I'm iffy on some of the changes. I embrace the QOL stuff like stash/inventory, especially ladder runewords on non ladder characters. I'm just worried about balancing skills etc. After my friend told me about the warcraft 3 remaster i was horrified with happened to that remaster. What i personally want is for them to focus on the QOL and small fixes so that the game comes out this year with no problems and then if they want to balance skills etc they can do it during ladders so if there are bad changes they can revert it next ladder. With the minor spell/skill balance survey as someone pointed out you can't do a minor buff to Inferno and have it be anything. So i reckon they need more time to really think about changing core stuff so it's done properly and not rush it.

Oh i forgot i am definitely in favour of more endgame content.

agreed, I think the stuff like increased stash space would be great and ladder/non-ladder runewords. balancing skills I think they should do after they release the game, charms probably not in favour of it because that could completely change the balance. modernized hotkeys, horadric cube encyclopedia, loot filter, additional item tooltip showing the min/max rolls.

I think over time they should add more end game content. I think after a 2-3 months or so people will just realize it's the same game with a different skin and just quit.

the griefing was one of the most memorable parts of the game.

trade scams
popping bodies
naked killing
chasing people in hardcore
entering public games and hunting down low levels

das it mane

some of the creativity of the scams was amazing

There was this glitch on 1 version of the rogue encampment if you teleported on the wall, you will enter but your merc would stay outside

You could then hostile people from in town and your merc would kill them. This is after you convince them to drop their gear for whatever reason

I think someone might have got me with that one.

Here is a survey done by several thousand fans on reddit on changes and the results.

i swear to fukking god if they do the personal loot in multiplayer i will lose my chit. HOW FUKING HARD IS IT TO REMASTER A FUKING GAME THAT IS ALREADY A 12/10 LEGENDARY STATUS??!!? LITERALLY UPDATE THE GRAPHICS, INCREASE STASH SPACE, THAT'S FUKKING IT.

I didn't include the part with suggestions. Literally mind boggling some of the stuff that was posted.

I got caught with the bait and switch trade scam (I put my item, he puts his, I checkmark first, he switches item to some useless junk and checkmarks quickly)

I can’t wait to go back to having gear that doesn’t bind to you so you can trade for whatever.

Brb create game titled “Brg *specific item*”
Brb dude shows up and puts it in the trade window and says wug
Brb i put up a bunch of random uniques and set items
Brb we make a deal

Agree of all of that. I do play a lot of Path of Diablo so i am use to the charm inventory but year it can get ridiculous with the amount skillers you can put so if it isn't added (which I doubt it will) i'm fine with it.
I really really liked the corruption of items though. Added another layer of gear set up which im sure mods will add in the future.

Also I literally cant think of any downside if they put well thought out end game content.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

So I gather that Thursday we will find out if we got into beta or not?

[ohiostate124]

Technical alpha going on now with streamers. Invites going out tomorrow for the rest of us. Good luck to those who signed up.

[Singularity7]

I've got the weekend off so I hope I get invited. Pls allah let it be so.

[chino3]

Looks like I will be buying a new pc just for this.

pindlebot paid for ALL of my books in college. Every morning was like christmas, running to the computer to see what my haul was (or wasn't).

Also loved power leveling chars with the assistance of my enchant soccy. brb lvl 5 char almost able to take out mephisto lol

Also would lol hard af during cow runs when CK was lightning enchanted, and I would lure him to the group with enigma hammerdin, then spam the chit out of hammers and tele away and watch every die and reeeeeee lol

Livesteam from a Hololive member



I can notice the graphics improvement but animation looks the same? Movement looks stiff. Are they still going to make improvements with this?

[Soonerjohn]

I really, really hope they don't give into new age cucks and give quality of life improvements and prevent people from trolling. I really want to watch people REEEE, it will be glorious

You know they will, they have been consistent in this regard.

No invite

[S_H_A_D_O_W]

No invite

its bull**** how all these streamers "magically" get invites yet none of the active community gets them ever. Blizzard playing favorites and proves that the beta testing isn't "random" what a joke.

[Singularity7]

From the 45 minute developer panel they said they’re trying to keep it as authentic as possible so I have reason to believe they wont

Small thing but rejuvs are not instant anymore. You can actually see your bars fill. Still fast but not instant anymore.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

No invite

I know like literally 7 people who pre ordered and signed up. Not a single one got an invite. lol

what gives you the idea that the testers would be "random"? did they ever state that?

of course streamers are gonna get invites. They stream it and generate hype for it. And they're friends with the community managers on twitter so it's easy to communicate with them about getting access. This isn't rocket science lol.

generate hype....for diablo 2.

A nice long clip from the D2 speed runner Llama:



Some weird frame drop issues but besides that, as an Alpha it's looking not bad. Just don't go caving into "custom changes" requests and I think we could have a winner.

He also has a final thoughts vid on everything. The loading screen times reminded me of Bloodborne loading screens. Hopefully that's fixed.

Another video if anyone wants to just skip to his final thoughts:




I don't want to get myself excited but it's sounding amazing. I guess it's theirs to ruin now, it seems the direction, visuals and sustain everything that is D2 has been done correctly.

[WHChampion]

Haven't following but have they increased drop rate on higher level runes? I know you basically had to rely on duping if you wanted to make any of the good runewords in the original game.

[Lollaff]

it looks good, but I just have no faith in Blizzard not to ruin this game. Looking at their last couple projects they're really struggling to stay connected to the players it seems. I hoping this will be their redemption though.

Nope. Tbh i hope they keep it that way.
