dead rogue

Halt! You should complete Akara's quest
>imps and goatmen raped them to death
Act 1 smells like death and cum
>>720629293As a kid I always felt bad for these rogues. So many cute women dead.
why are there dead guards in the canyon of the magi? How did they get there?
>>720630134The deranged hobo protagonist of the game, Marius, had to hire a bunch of mercs to cheese through all the content. All those dead rogues and dead guards are from his party. Dead mercs stop appearing in act 3 because even Marius is better than an Iron Wolf.

>>720630935Now post the renders of the rest of the corrupted rogues.
>>720629293Shame nu-Blizzard is too afraid to add some real grimdark to their Diablo games. GGG has to pick up the slack.
>>720630110I liked the part with all the nude executed rouges

>>720631553ass!
>>720632029post iti need this
>>720632706Nice burka.
>>720632706There are naked bodies in the OG sewers also, just in different placement.
>>720632706The butcher room is proof that the remake is botched.
>>720629293>wipe blood off of legs with water>dry (wet) hump dead rogue legs
>>720633091Inshallah she shall be covered head to toe come next patch.
>>720632585Apparently Act 5 will have "pleasure district". And we already saw one of the districts with Mercenary fighting the monster mother trying to castrate him with massive scissors.
all defeated heroines are canonically raped by demons, yes?
>>720634334I don't see any cocks on the fallen and they're clearly naked.We can see bobs and vegania on the succubus tho so actually female heroes are killed while males are drained by succs
>>720634334Why else do you think they spawn back at camp completely stripped.
>>720634616
I'm about to play this for the first time. Best class?

Why is it so perfect, bros? I have never seen a remake that is just flawless in every way. There is literally nothing I would do to improve it. Why can't all remakes/remasters be this good?
>>720629293>hate women IRL>still feel sad when they get hurtfemale adventurers shouldn't exist
>>720637131I know what I'd do to improve it. Remove all the censorship.
>>720636123uninstall wizardNot really, but less and less games work for the joke as times goes on
>>720637131It's garbage thoughever.They had one job and they blew it.
>>720637131kill yourself>>720637195learn to be aroused by itthey sure as hell are
>>720637460What's garbage about it?
>>720631935what game is this ?
>>720637515>>720637460Name one thing they did wrong with it.
>>720637548>>720637973Observe the differences between these two player characters >>720632706

>>720636123blizzard sorctrapsinskellymancerhammerdinjavazonthey are easy to grasp and strong
>>720637131buy an ad you piece of shit
>>720638030Is that really your criteria for the entire remake being garbage?
>>720637131>Perfect>Most females look like troons>Men look like Walmart boomersHuh?
>>720636123Paladin without a doubt
>>720639165>one job>improve graphics>can't manage it>goes out of your way to censor it praise AllahAs I said. Garbage.
>>720639293Does the rest of the game not count, only the class characters?
>>720639489the class characters you literally play as are the most important things to get right anon
>>720636123I recently played through all difficulties with trapsin it was pretty easyFade helps you with defense/resistances in hell a lot. Lightning Sentry was easy to scale just get +skills always. once you have a Spirit, Lore, Ancients Pledge/Rhyme you're all set pretty much
>>720637131They need to remake the rarest items so they can be useful.Also, very controversial and I don't give a shit, but drop rates should be buffed.
>>720639168>Most females look like troonsAmazon and Assassin have a lot less femine faces, but you don't really ever see them during gameplay. Only thing that is obvious in gameplay is their legs being covered, which you're completely right in saying is a change for the worse
>>720637569Path of Exile
>>720631553Portholed
>>720639553Yeah, but you don't really notice any of the changes while you're playing. The improved animations are also a welcome addition
I'm having fun with assassin so far. Not sure where to go in terms of skills.>>720638420seethe
>>720639882It's not an excuse to hit them with the ugly stick, it's a shame really since it's good overall
>>720640004True
>>720639489>Does the rest of the game not countWhy would it?
>>720631553I bet she's still warm, you can even use her blood as lube.
>>720630935She was a sexy bird the whole time?Curse these 640x480 graphics
>>720639629>drop rates should be buffed.No matter what you say or think this one change will always ruin any game.
>>720640069Why would you judge a remake if you're not taking 95% of it into account?
>>720640145The player character is something you have to look at 100% of the time.
>>720631935awooga
>>720636123Barbarian is the purest Diablo 2 experienceDon't listen to coddled babies with their runewords and Paladins
>>720636123sorc is just gonna be the best for clearing the game pretty much, teleport is too op and sorc's kit of spells are all fairly stronk and safe to use without getting your cock ripped off instantly at higher difficulties (note: if you accidentally tele into any pack of mobs at higher difficulties the sorc will get her cock ripped off almost instantly)
>>720639670ty
>>720640225Most of my time playing Diablo 2 is spent looking at the map, environment or the enemies. Aside from that, how would the visual experience of say, a paladin, be any different in the remake?
>>720636123barbblind playthroughfollow your heart
>>720640353>>720640369i am enjoying the exposed ass cheeks of the assassin so farreally putting the ass in her name
>>720640464Wouldn't know, faggot.I'm not buying.
>>720640523Show us.
>>720633967that's just hellraiser but even shittier
>>720640534>Wouldn't know, faggot.Yeah, exactly
It's funny to me that the Warrior shoved a rock into his forehead, the Sorcerer went schizo and started summoning demons, and the Rogue turned into a demon and raised the dead to attack her own people. Meanwhile, Tristram burns to the ground and all the citizens died.Not even my poor nigga Farnham with his PTSD made it out. And, to make things worse, they decided to make it so Adria actually did survive but was playing the Lazarus game the whole time.
>>720640627You're over here telling me how you play as if that's important to me.Consider suicide lmao.
>>720640802Warrior was just trying to socket a jewel. He was years ahead of his time.
>>720640802>Sorcerer went schizoEven worse, he went batshit insane. I don't remember the details of the Rogue turning into a demon thobeit, probably got gangbanged by demons Taimanin style and got mindbroken/corrupted from the constant non-stop rape.
>>720629293Damn I thought it was a dead women make me hard / ryona thread. It's just a regular diablo thread.
>>720640880>You're over here telling me how you play as if that's important to me.You said you spent most of the game looking at your character. I brought up the fact that you spend a lot of time looking at other things. I then asked you how the character model would be worse for something like a paladin during gameplay, which you refused to engage with>Consider suicide lmao.How rude
andariel best girl
>>720640802Sorcerer was interesting, it sounded like he wanted to roleplay and be a demonlord.
>>720641197>You said you spent most of the game looking at your character.No.The player character is on screen 100% of the time. The implication my simpleminded shill is that the player character's appearance is important.>I then asked you how the character model would be worse for something like a paladin during gameplay, which you refused to engage withA useless sentence since if you had paid any attention you'd know I don't care about the paladin.
>>720631553>pressing 'z' intensifies
>>720640276goddamn
>>720641045The Rogue is Blood Raven.She came home to her sisters after her adventures in Tristram seeming off. Then, when Andariel showed up to take over the place, she immediately flipped sides and started putting arrows into her own.
>>720641045i get hard just thinking about it
>>720629293I'd like to play the game in all three difficulties, but I don't want to grind much, collect unique sets and do runewords - are there mods for such casual playstyle?
Should I get the Book of X books?
>>720641221>dyke torture rapes the ranger into submission
>>720641449>The player character is on screen 100% of the time. The implication my simpleminded shill is that the player character's appearance is important.Sure, but not every single aspect of the characters are worse. Amazon and assassin are the biggest offenders, but most of that boils down to their faces (which you never really see, especially since you're using helmets), with thigh skin being removed (which is gay as fuck btw). Yet the characters look great from a graphical standpoint, and they have improved animations. Tell me, how would you experience as a paladin be visually worse compared to the original? And what would fix the characters that are fucked?
>>720630054Sometimes I do a Goblin Slayer playthrough where I hunt these critters and their shamans all over the act 1 till I get bored. If there are no critters left I continue with the game to kill Colenzo and finish the job and get bored halfway.
>>720642032So you know what the problem is after all.We have nothing more to discuss.Garbage demake.Malicious developers.
>>720641981>the rangerthe who now?
>>720641528>>720641045
>>720636123amazon or sorc if you're a beginner so you can farm.
>>720637131>flawless in every wayall the females aside from the sorc are hideous and censored. the guys look like methheads. aside from that yes it's pretty good. but not flawless
>>720642402I hit a google search on this and only found the single page from a reddit post, is there any more stuff like this floating around out there about the D2 Dev?
the dark rangers have their asses outthis game is nice
>>720632130well at least they're having fun
>>720642402Is this pre-D2 in-house planning? It doesn't quite fit the actual D2 world since the Rogues weren't all corrupted, but it's neat to see the ideas being tossed around.
>>720642673the OG D2 came out when it was the height of my puberty and i can assure you there were 0 people oogling any of the things happening in Diablo 2 so fuck off with your made up bullshit, who fuckin' cares
>>720637131they turned charsi from a bubbly blacksmith muscle waifu into a roided out hag. her voice doesnt match at all.
>>720629293Are rogues related to amazons in some way? Or are there two separate female-run archer cultures?
>>720642861>animefag is a homoMakes sense.
>>720642861>the OG D2 came out when it was the height of my pubertyso was I. eat a dick faggot.
>>720642890bro, her arms are smaller in the new onethey made her less of a roided out hag
>>720642861low ti jerked off to andariel repeatedly when i was 13
>>720642861>0 peopleMeanwhile in reality, some nerds counted pixels and deduced amazon was a size 36 DD.
>>720643023OGD2 Charsi is a number 2
>>720642861Yeah bro, people picked the females because of their stats. Didn't have anything to do with their asses hanging out for all to see.
>>720642890looks fine to me, she was a paladin before right?
>>720643065>retarded nerds don't know how bra sizes workThat checks out.
>>720642683It was posted by Phil Shenk on his twitter account during a "going through old files" dump, shortly before the account restrictions (that post specifically was on 2021-03-23). The document was written by Shenk as one of his first lore entries for BlizzNo, and the handwritting he said>Oh the notes on the margin I'm 95% sure are @HedlundStieg.With HedlundStieg being the handle for Erich Schaefer.I got quite a few posts from back then, but most are in mp4 with (silent) audio and can't be posted here without conversion.>>720642851Yes. And while the in-game never touches on it, it's essentially the unmentioned reason for the schism that divided the Monastery (Assembly sisters vs Akara's puritans), mentioned in The Smith's Arreat Summit lore>When Andariel’s deceit overthrew the structure of the Sisterhood, a great struggle between the followers of Blood Raven and those of Kashya, erupted. The Rogues were forced to give up their ancestral home and the Monastery is now filled with voracious hellspawn. While all of these dark beasts are dangerous, the Overlord who guards the Malus is particularly brutal. Known as The Smith, this vile craftsman now uses the power of the Malus to create weaponry for the minions of Diablo.
>>720642148Things are not either shit or perfect. The fact that the amazon has a worse face, and her thighs aren't exposed, isn't reason enough to call an entire remake garbage. Your complaint wouldn't apply if you played a paladin, so how would you rate the remake if you did? By your logic, the rest of the game doesn't matter if you want to determine the remake's quality. You even admitted you've never played it, so I can only assume you're repeating what you've read on 4chins
>>720643367>let me tell you what you wantSuch arrogance. Kill yourself as soon as possible. Do not delay.
>>720643227No, Charsi is a young, curious barbarian orphan who never knew her own people. The A2 smith is the retired paladin.
>>720643449You should become a games journalist, anon
>>720643227that was the chick from act2
>>720643567I'm sorry you had to learn that people have different opinions than you, but that's just part of growing up.
>>720643237Fuck if I know how exactly they did it. The calculation was done on an assumed height.
>>720636123Summon druid if you just want an easy start for the first two difficulties.
>>720637131They fucked up character design and didn't unfuck act 3.
>>720637131What the fuck is up with that expression?
>>720643679What opinions? You haven't even played it. How could you possibly determine the quality of the remake, when your only complaint applies to a very small part of the game, a part which you in most cases won't even notice, and that in other cases doesn't even apply. You don't seem to know fucking anything about it other than that
>>720644017its hard to express emotion properly when you don't have a face
>>720644136>What opinionsI do agree. My posts are facts.Shame you can't seem to accept that.>how do you know it's shit? You haven't tasted it yet!
>Mephisto is supposed to be the oldest and strongest>he's the weakest in the gamewhat's up with that?
>>720644318viper you stupid
>>720644202This one expressed emotion just fine.
>>720644368>noooo you can't just not buy our game!!!All you had to do was improve the graphics.But being malicious you had to go out of your way and have meetings on how to best cover up "problematic" elements.Strange behaviour.Now you're in this thread having a little schizo-tantrum because I don't want to buy your censored garbage.lollmao even
>>720632706I am actually surprised there isn't a mod fixing the character censorship or at least fix their faces in the remake.
>>720631553i can hear itthese were the most cunty enemy in diablo 1 if they were in any numbers, lazarus's rooms are a fucking nightmare
>>720629293HAHA! Violence against women.
>>720644017dyablo skull man had a recessed jaw and tapering chin
>>720637131>I have never seen a remake that is just flawless in every wayit's bad, it's worse than the original in every way, from the art design, the death of half the atmosphere because of it, to the shitty rebalancing that makes it worseyou people are insane. they categorically changed entire characters looks, they fucked up the armour, you will just defend any slop at allsimply boot up pd2 instead, 10x the game better in every single way
I always, ALWAYS make the mistake of speccing Lightning Sorc because I want to roll wit the wizards yo, going all ZAP MUTHAFUCKA with Chain Lightning but realize by Mephisto that it's kind of shit then really digest how shit it is by Diablo before respeccing Fire.
>>720644613You're making up a person in your mind to avoid having to actually engage with any level of analysis. You're devoid of a measured opinion, a fact which you seem to take pride in. You are, in other words, the perfect incarnation of a /v/irgin
>>720644862What's pd2?>>720644898Oh it's an analysis now? A measured opinion?>y-y-you can't just love the female form!! It's not a hecking argument!!I'll remind you that you should kill yourself as soon as possible.
>>720644862>the death of half the atmosphere because of it,Which areas do you think suffered?
Did those guys in the tavern deserve to die for laughing at poor Aidan with his failing body struggling to hold Diablo at bay?
>>720640102completely false, it depends on what the drop rates were originally if increasing them will ruin the gameif you balance around retarded spreadsheets where only 1 out of every 100k players can get a thing instead of around individual player experience, buffing your drop rates will not only not ruin your game it will make it exponentially betterif your drop rates are already reasonable and based around individual player experience to begin with, then buffing them will take the fun out of the - short - grind between good drops.d2s drop rates are close to okay, especially with the ability to eldritch nihlathak council run in easily <2 minutes per run. the real problem with d2s drop rates are high runes given no way to target farm them, anything past 20 is unreasonable and countess is the only farm spot for them and it's a dogshit 5 level run everytime
>>720644862>the death of half the atmosphere>implying D2 didn't kill D1's atmosphere
>>720645086>Oh it's an analysis now? A measured opinion?Why would you have and defend an opinion if you didn't even analyze it first? That's basic thinking>y-y-you can't just love the female form!! It's not a hecking argument!!It actually is an argument. I agree with you completely on the female classes, but it's not nearly enough to condemn the entire game, especially when you won't notice the problems for the majority of it>I'll remind you that you should kill yourself as soon as possibleno u
>>720637131Those with slow minds will not understand
>>720645291>but it's not nearly enough to condemn the entire gameUnfortunately for (you), it is.
>>720642851The document states that Blood Raven created a secret lodge within the sisterhood (the assembly), because the main branch of the Order wasn't ready for her prophecies. Akara would probably have put an end to it if she knew about it.
>>720629293I found a stone of jordan in dead rogue once. Must've have sucked hard getting killed with such items
>>720640464>Aside from that, how would the visual experience of say, a paladin, be any different in the remake?you're no longer a fictional black guy from a fictional in game location with a specific lookyou're now generic nogroid tyrone from random american city #563this, believe it or not, makes people not want to play as much. the character is not cool, he is not respectable."oh but i'm looking at the map" you didn't even get to that point, because the character select screen was so reprehensibly awful you simply didn't pick the character. same goes for granny amazon, asian karen, the druid isn't even bald anymore for fuck sake lmaoyou can pull up the d2 remaster characters, then pull up the d2 original character concept artwork side by side and clearly see night and day that one group is cool and appealing and one group is a trashfire
>>720645428LMAOing at ur lifes
>>720645127Yes, especially the midget.
>>720642861I was straight up jerking it to the harem girls, dead, living and corrupted rogues, Andariel and the succubi for sure. Also the merc leader in A3 with the snake
>>720645397The original US release used the same box art as the EU one listed here. It even says on the image that you're comparing the old stuff to the shit remaster.
>>720643227>looks fine to me>hair isn't even red>cleavage isn't out>is now 50 years older than she wasShut the fuck up good god
>>720642861(You)
>it's poopy wooby doody schmoobyThat's right big boy. You cracked the code.Now open wide for the aeroplane.
>720645759Yes and you should kill yourself if you think otherwise.
>>720645086>What's pd2?project diablo 2. it's d2 with rebalancing and poe style maps that runs seasons every however long. the problem with d2 mods, is that even the very good ones are just mods, one and done, standalone. arpgs need seasons with new content and resets to be worth playing repeatedly - and we all know blizzard can't do that, their "seasons" are like once a year and their new content is just nothing.>>720645124almost all of them, because realistic ass grass and rock and lava textures do not improve the atmosphere they had created, they are a detriment to it. even in act 1, every open field area looks worse because the trees and grass look like shit.>>720645218d2 has an entirely different atmosphere to d1, and i prefer d1's of course, d1 tristram is an atmosphere they've never been able to recreate since. that doesn't magically mean they can be as shit as they want and ruin everything free of criticism because d1 did it better
>>720645565Asheara is underappreciated for sure
>>720645759I can already play the original in widescreen and modern resolutions. Why do you think I need worse graphics and ghetto blacks to do that?
Why was paladin late to the fight?
>>720645597very attentive
>>720646207I always saw it as him corpserunning
>>720646090I love women so much brosShame nu-blizz hates them.
>>720639670>>720631935>>720633967Is Path of Exile 2 something I will enjoy if I loved Diablo 2, but hated 4?Either getting this or doing Diablo 2 again, but I'd prefer something new if it's actually good.
>>720646207He was stuck in transit.
>>720646207He killed every single enemy in the way while the low level players used sorcs portal to get there.
>>720646380Just add it to your wishlist and wait for it to be free.
>>720646380no. poe2 minions are shit and half baked because they're terrified of bots using minions
>>720646207So that Necro and Barb would die and he could get all the women to himself
>>720646207he's a nigger
>>720629293would.
>>720646090Wife material.
>>720631115technically, pants are a downside in combat as they slow you down and distracting you male non-chud enemy with your vag is an upside.
>>720646207>Barb is dying because he leaped right into a swipe>Necro is getting sonned and casting a curse>Sorc is like "nigga, where you been?" like she's not being useless>Amazon is waiting for her moment to shove her spear up Diablo's ass>Pally is late because he was farming minions
>>720631553would.
>>720647062Fuck off, Lazarus.
>>720632624would..... man i should just make a "would." mass reply. Been posing like 2-3 "would"s here already.
2 has such a great opening, Blizzard was never able to reach these heights again.
>>720647039>spearThose are javelins, she's still using the basic ones and she only has one left in her stack.
>>720646380You'd probably enjoy PoE 1, not a chance of enjoying 2.
I genuinely believed the blacksmith girl was completely naked with only her apron on as a kid.
>>720647286I liked the minimalist opening of the first Diablo, it perfectly sets the tone without revealing too much and zero dialogue/exposition/lore dump.
>>720647172I still "would" most of the pictures in this threads.... this is not /v/ but /s/ for me.
>>720646967who bitch this is
>>720646380probably not, it is much more like diablo 4 than diablo 2poe1 is less like d4 than poe2 is
>>720647325I'd like to point out that the game counts javelins used in melee as 1H spears. Same thing with throwing axes and throwing daggers
>>720646191At least you can cover up the paladin's face
>>720647530>posts "sara lima" filename>cannot read but needs to fapunderstandable.
>>720646380poe2 is ~100 GB of hot garbage, with GGGs trademark shitty optimization because dev time spent on optimization is dev time not spent on making mtx.The guy mainly responsible for making poe1 a success left GGG 5 years ago.
>>720647441Same. Life was good.
>>720646207>wyt bois useless>wyt women being useless hiding behind pillar >ayo wer da wyt womyn atwhat did blizzard mean by this?
>>720644357He spent his energies convicting zakacucks that Hell is our greatest ally
>>720647441Same, naked apron is patrician.
>>720647834There are no white women in D2.Sorceress is fantasy Middle Eastern, Amazon is fantasy Greek, and Assassin is fantasy Asian.

Single. Goddamn. Mod
>>720648127They even censored dialogue because think of all the poor vertically challenged people (they/them) in the Modern Audience™!

>>720648468>tfw they turn her into an asian dyke>she's probably twice as hairy to make up for being hairless originally
>>720648582OMG i forgot they changed the midget with the peg leg into a normal short guy.
>>720648514except pd2 does also fix drop rates in addition to having tradeand the game NEEDS bloat you clown, because it has no endgame, which is why every good d2 mod adds a fucking endgame to play instead of "well baal run to 90 then you're done i guess"

She deserved a better game.
>>720649410>>720649765>early 2000s model where everyone looks the sameIs this supposed to mean anything?Everything about the class is Asian themed. Do you need a rice hat, yellow skin, and big buck teeth since all the rest isn't enough to get it?
Diablo 2 was never supposed to have sequels, it was supposed to be the final game, that's why they killed off all the prime evils and most of the lesser ones too.
I really wish renders of games like this were all public. So much has been lost to time. Imagine having the original renders of the Starcraft units.
>>720650143I wanna see xer with a queue.
>>720650106She did end up on Hots at least.
>>720650167Honestly, chasing the isometric arpg genre feels like a lost cause at this point. The genre has been utterly boiled down into an autistic 'how fast can you aoe clear rooms' simulator. If Blizz really wanted another hit with the franchise, they'd be better served going the soft reboot prequel route with a soulsclone rollslope game set during the Sin War.>Player is a Horadrim working for Tyrael>Have to prove yourself by taking down the 4 lesser evils before being allowed to go after the big 3 (very Souls-esque formula)>Maybe throw in some Mage Clan War shit for more nuanced and varied enemies
>>720649504>spends a lot of time kicking>practically on one leg more than two>every time that piece of cloth has to go all over the place>a non-stop porno luke
>>720650897I don't see where they can go forward from a lore standpoint.We've had Diablo 3 times and we're now dredging up random mid level demons for our big bads.I think you're right and going back to the time the Primes were roaming about after getting kicked out of Hell as one of Horadrim who put them in the stones seems like the best option.
>>720650143And everything about the paladin is European or Aztec themed but he's African black. It's almost like their world isn't actually real and the races don't line up with ours you dumb retard.
>>720646090It's a shame she has basically nothing to do because her items are bad and her mercs are bad.Why do acts 3 and 4 feel so barren compared to 1 and 2.
>>720642890It's the washed-out palette look.

>>720642890They turned all the female characters into ugly troons in the demake, granted it was to be expected from nublizzard right at the peak of gay libtard trannyfaggotry circa 2021.
>>720651953What is a cancelled game supposed to prove?
>>720650897>The genre has been utterly boiled down into an autistic 'how fast can you aoe clear rooms' simulator.We need to retvrn to D1's roguelike roots. To quote an anon, game's meant to be beaten, not corpsefucked for eternity.

>>720652582Not Hollywood-esque enough.
>>720652287D1 had a few funny old-school quirks to it, like the one specific variant of zombie that would permanently reduce your max hp with their attacks.

>>720634334Imagine that happening.
>>720652097No matter what you do with one of these games now, the reality is that 99% of players are softcore tradefags, and they will shit and cry about not being able to make number go up fast enough until the devs buckle because that's where the money is.
>>720652725The whole monastery must have been one giant torture/rape/snuff fest after the Dark Wanderer passed through.
>>720652889Why did the rogues have a 3-level prison to begin with?
>>720652813I imagine the number of people who specifically made female characters just to jerk off to them dying is less than a thousand but probably more than 10.Likely the same crowd who commission porn of girls drowning.
>>720652716in D2 the knights I think in Act 4 originally had the ability to steal items from players. I think in the earliest version they stole it, then they patched it so they just drop the items, then it got patched out

>>720652961The place in D1 was excavated by basically possessed monks so perhaps something similar.
Still mad we never went to Skovos.
>open diablo 1>play game, hit skeletons>go back up to restock and sell shit>barely have enough to afford a single potion, can't even heal fully>skeletons don't respawn so i don't have money>die because i can't heal and can't get gold to healhow did you kinothroating mongoloids find this fun
>>720645206No it won't. You don't NEED those items and the longevity of the game is based entirely around how rare these optional items are.
>keep bringing the Butcher back in every game because "ah fresh meat" is iconic>refuse to do a "Resurrected" D1
>>720642861Look I don't really give a shit about the D2R changes but that's straight up false.
>>720650167Imo D2 did end in a bit of a cliff hanger. At least they left the door open, if nothing else.
>>720653226Are they just chilling on their matriarchal femdom islands while the rest of the world burns?
>>720653302>baaaw give me resloooop baaawDevilution exists.
>>720652836see, you're retardedthe first guy said about clearing roomsand you turned it into something elseit is perfectly possible to create a slow paced arpg like diablo 1, but it has to have drop rates to suit and not have drop rates like d2 or fucking poe, it's simplethe time you spend fighting anything and its risk must be proportional to the loot it giveswhen you one button clear a screen, then drops can be low and you're still getting outcomes by volumewhen you remove the volume, your drop rates MUST be changed so that one moster drops the same amount - in value and usefulness - as 3 screens of fucking enemies otherwise your game is dead
>>720652961They didn't build it, Eastgate Keep was originally a fortress for soldiers which was later abandoned before eventually being converted into a monastery by the Sisterhood.
>>720636123if you dont actually want to play the game: trap assasin. Master of Murder Roombas ass gameplay
>>720653302Blizz doesn't give a shit about D1. The Battlenet version is barely functional
>>720653428proof it

>>720646207Even divine and righteous hands of God have to take a piss sometimes
>>720653689Credit where it's due; at least the D3 Succubi had their tits out.
>>720646380>Is Path of Exile 2 something I will enjoy if I loved Diablo 2, but hated 4?Yes. The basic gameplay is like Diablo 2, bosses are more like top down Souls bosses where you have to dodge roll red attacks like in Sekiro and shit.https://youtu.be/1Am4OpooPCE?si=xSNfTwGMxRRGKHe-
>>720653268yes, that's how dungeon crawlers work anonyour first ventures are short due to limited resources, no staying power and desperately trying to scrape together moneythis improves as you continue until you are going back to town once every few floors at most>>720653278"need" has nothing to do with it, you are being retarded.arpgs are about scaling your characters power. if your power plateaus and stops going anywhere, you have failed in your game designit does not matter what you "need" to beat the end boss or whatever scenario you make up, what matters is progression at all timesthe longevity of your game does not exist if the grind is absurd, because nobody will do it . the grind has to be in the fucking sweet spot where if you play for 2 or 3 hours, you WILL get an upgrade
>>720653692Yeah that one works great
>>720642424what gayme
Dead rogue (current year)
>>720653808>Only a long fight because the boss spends 80% of it immune to damageGross
>>720653987Dat ass in the back tho...
>>720653987Mashallah she's a hajibi
why no one played druid?
>>720654160who the fuck wants to play a fantasy hippie?
>>720653781Many of the females in D3 were pretty hot.
at least diablo 3 wasnt rollslop
>>720654160summons and transformations were not good enough on their own, and EVERYTHING is fire immune in hell. all good with the sunder charms and flickering flame now though, druid is strong
>>720654349Minions weren't good on their own in Diablo 2 at all. Necromancer was fun class but complicated to play because you had to juggle curses, Bone Spears and minions all at the same time. Maybe add Corpse Explosion to the mix.
>>720654267But was Leah sexo?
Stay awhile and listen (The voice acting in this game is surprisingly comfy for a 2000 game)
I miss female witch doctor...
>>720654460yes. adria was a total milf and even that rita repulsa woman was fuckable at least. at the very least much better than that chink neyrelle in d4
>>720654484I AM-THERE IS-
>>720654160they did, it's arguably the easiest class. sure it can't teleport, but neither can sorc for half the game until they get the spell and get the mana to do it reasonablyfire druid into hurricane druid clears everything just by walking around until it reaches end of hell and its damage plateaus hardbut then you can just play werewolf
>>720654460In-game, not really. But she had a surprising amount of rule 34, that is to say she got more than a few works.
>>720653467I don't care, retarded tradefag. Literally every single one of you has different ideas of what the correct proportion of player input to loot output should be. This is why none of you should be listened to.

>>720652582because he left blizzard for runic games
>>720655171Man Torchlight and its only sequel were good
>>720633967Too bad everything else in the game sucks.No coomer armors (even in cash shop) and gamplay is "what if we made D2, but worse?"
>>720655232yep

>>720654734>>720654994nta but PoE2 is just ugly for the sake of ugliness, at least Andariel was hot, GGG only knows how to make things gross.
>>720655254>No coomer armorsAct 2 armors are all about harem outfits because its the desert amazon Act, its just that Sorc and Witch who most likely wear them are both flat as boards.
>>720655398What they changed was adding trade, making everyone compare their loot to everyone else in the world instead of their own finds. This was a killing blow to the genre.
>>720652793Ehem.Is that all?
>>720642364I think he meant the PC Rogue from the 1st Diablo who is in fact Blood Raven.The PC Sorcerer later goes crazy when he manages to find Tal-Rasha's Sanctuary and becomes the Summoner you have to off.The Warrior becomes Diablo's host.
>>720655398>shilling for a game made in the mid-90s that was surpassed in every way by Diablo 2D2 had the best atmosphere, best story in an arpg. And beyond a shadow of doubt, the best cinematics in the history of videogames.
>>720649870lol, yeah
>>720655398True but don't tell the D2 tards.
>>720655473
>>720654160Druid doesn't have an endgame niche where it's the best class.

>>720655498Anything for archer though? I remember mine having nothing but some hobo rags
>>720655584>D2 had the best atmosphereD2 can't hold a candle to D1's atmosphere.
>>720652582Apparently Blizzard casually stuck the unused Diablo 3 music into WoW. It sure sounds like it, you just go into Auchindoun and suddenly Diablo music starts playing.
>>720654160All my friends wanted to be badass wolfes.I rolled fire drood and sometimes stopped casting spells just for the lulz
>>720655584The music in Diablo 2 was great too.

I always hear that summon necro rocks and can take you to hell so I tried it out>spending over 20 minutes or more chipping down bosses in higher level difficulties>summons randomly despawn if you run too far away>if your army gets wiped you need to collect new ones from a different act usually. It just takes so freakin long to kill anything. I guess i'll "never die" but holy shit neither do the bosses.
>>720655473You haven't even seen the worst of it. Look at this unshaven hag. Disgusting.
>>720655931Witch has always been flat, by intentional design. Her boobs look a bit bigger in Demon form though.

What the fuck was his problem?
>>720650167Diablo 2 released early so they could start working on Diablo 3
>>720656128Why use fire ever if resistances and immunities to it are so common?
>>720656170Hot, sexy/lewd armors confirmed yet?
>>720656396The female playable characters in PoE are pretty boring as someone who likes paying attention to dialogue.>muh nature, muh wilds, fuck society and laws and shit>muh power, muh chaos, fuck society and laws and shit
>>720656165In the older versions all you needed were mages and a good golem. No idea about now with all the retarded balancing and additions justifying that.
just make a sorc to farm the gear for your real character, sorc is the best at it hands down if you are starting from a fresh account.
>>720656512Nobody whines about the boss fights though, everyone thinks the souls bosses are the highlight of PoE 2. Turns out people prefer epic fights against giant beasts over destroying a glorified loot pinata before it even appears on the screen.
>>720656082effortlessly moggedhttps://youtu.be/SEpydfXj87M
>>720656534>Diablo 2 released earlyit released so early they broke their development deadline by 2 whole years
>>720656512Why are you talking about money and not game quality? Because GGG said PoE2 has almost made back it's cost and PoE2 has been more popular than PoE1 ever was during 0.1 (and based on steamcharts possibly during 0.3) in spite GGG having not one but TWO actively developed ARPGs (competing against Grim Dawn, Titan Quest 2 and Diablo 2 (Resurrected and Path of Diablo), 3's new season last week, and 4) and lootershooters.
>>720656532least evil zakarumite
>>720656723Okay what the fuck are you even talking about? Mages were historically dogshit until they added synergies to the game.
>>720656170>body inspired by picrelBased artist
>>720650106She's great in HotS>striker skinHNNNG
>>720646380give it more time, it's bretty fun but it doesn't have an endgame worth playing yet, and the skill balance is shitty, around half the content is missing, including most of the latter half of the campaignyou'll like poe 1 if you like opening super chests for runes
>>720656686She looks healthier than in the first game.
>>720656749And people really like it if you have both, which PoE2 does that even newbie youtubers can play it to T15 maps. And thanks to stuff like advanced tooltips and the new gem system + auto trading, PoE2 is more complex yet more accessible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9jNUe36UksGGG did more right than 'wrong' with 2
>>720650106III was alright.
Nevermind, my skelly just soloed blood ravenholy shit
>>720656082true, i still listen to the original WoW + D2 soundtracks when i play certain other games, because their music mogs most other games in the same genre easily.
>>720650143>everything about this class is asian themedmaybe martial arts, everything else is not, hell even the thematic weapons like Claws and Katars are fucking Indian
>>720656686>fuck society and laws and shitWhat did tencent mean by this?
>>720646527PoE2 minions are pretty good though? Not meta, but design wise it's the most innovative necromancy in an ARPG in a while
>>720630110How does someone "rape someone to death" do they have barbed peckers of somethin'?
>>720642861>he didn't farm andariel for totally normal gear related reasonsfaggot
>>720656756pretty sure that music's been used in D2 aswell probably, or somewhere else, because i've never played it, and i have never listened to the D1 soundtrack, but i've heard that track plenty.
>>720657249>>>fuck society and laws and shit>stated by China?
>>720657336GGG is completely owned by tencent
>>720657040You destroy bosses in map system automatically because you will eventually overlevel the content. Even in campaign if you go back to a previous Act you just melt the previous bosses. Reason why the campaign bosses take longer to kill is because usually you're either same level or one level above the area.
>>720657336Anon said tencent, you assumed he meant China, why is that?
>>720657403Yeah eventuallyEventuallyThat creates a sense of progression as you go from playing to farming so you can clear end game uber bosses and encountersBy maps you already 'beat the game'
>>720654160I did, only because I refuse to play females and Sorc is unfortunately nonwhite bitch.
>>720656756Counter pointhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0e3PCR9bfp0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OGJ2W6t26Q
>>720656892>he never played the original releaseSad. Many such cases.
>>720657249China has their own branch of the game with loot pets, changes to visual designs of certain areas and enemies and an in-game marketplace for years. I get the epic funny implication that Tencent is in control, but there's no reason for them to inject anything into the main game when they have their own version with its own team to change whatever they want.
>>720629293rape
>>720657596nta but are you suggesting the chinese version omitted the 'fuck society and laws and shit' lines?
>>720657824No.
>>720656639True, but you have no other choice, really.Lightning is too point hungry for a second element, it "works" but it's really subpar. This is the best you get unless you have access to stuff like Enigma or Infinity. Also the reason Sorc is the best class is solely because of her teleport breakpoints. Everything feels like shit to play compared to a 105 faster cast Sorc.
>>720657975proof?
>>720657594I just wanted to say that other anon wasn't me, I'd never be that hostile with a reply. Good day sir
Chris Wilson (of Grinding Gear Games, creator of Path of Exile) says vanilla Diablo 2 was better than Lords of Destruction. Is this true?
>>720658164I've seen some anons telling the same but maybe they were Chris all along.
>>720658017Back in the day Nova was fine too. Although back in the day Inferno was also useful, and Blaze was ridiculously overpowered. I think Frost Nova was also pretty good. Hydra was the only really shitty skill. I guess I'm finally up for a Sorceress run in v1.0.
>>720658047I'm not making any claims of what changes specifically Tencent has made to their branch of the game beyond what I just used as examples. What I'm saying is that if you want to know what Tencent's influence on the game is and go "what did Tencent mean by this" you can see that influence clearly in the Chinese version. There's not a Chinese representative at GGG telling the writers there what to do.
>>720658343I remember, yeah Nova is mechanically ridiculously powerful. As long as you deal enough damage you can stun-lock everything on screen.
>>720658164He's 100% in the right.
>>720658252>Bald fat retard could be here
>>720658164Yes. Specifically Diablo 2 was better before 1.10
>>720658164Vanilla didn't have any unique art for uniques. Most of the shitty stuff with LoD actually came from the multiplayer updates. I guess Chris enjoyed farming SoJs and didn't like how this economy got changed to be all about runes
>>720658558>Novayeah, that shit was insane before immunities, it's still really mechanically powerful if you get can enough damage.Think I ran a tri-ele FO, Hydra, Charged Bolt Sorc back in 1.09. Shit was so cash.
>>720658068No problem. I read his as disbelief but it's normal for most to have never played anything that didn't have rune words or whatever those things are. I don't remember how skeleton mages were in 1.07 and I think that's the last version I've played. And not for long. LoD is definitely not for me.
>>720658757Runes have been a disastrous addition to the game. Deterministic gearing has no place in an ARPG.
>>720657148India is Asiaand she throws shurikens, too
>>720654460Its so funny to me that she was never mentioned ever again.

>>720654460>back when blizzard still knew how to make normal looking womenWhat happened?
>>720658164Vanilla as in v1.0 doesn't have limits on block percentage, resistances and a lot of other things. Sometimes this is "bad" becase a Paladin missing during a ~23 hit Zeal continues swinging through empty air. But overall it's very fun when nearly everything is broken and the only things that aren't are due to bugs or oversights.
Speaking of the assassin, I've been trying to track down a full version of this art from the strategy guide, but I can't seem to find it.Does it exist anywhere?
>>720658164There's definitely some merit to that statement. Think the old sorc build of that era was 20 static field, 20 orb, 20 warmth rest Cold Mastery (you couldn't buy manapots in shop and no Insight). Orb also didn't have a cooldown which was sick.
>>720658874>>720658941Keyed.
i don't fucking have to do anymore with three skellies and a bowthot following menecromancer is broken
>>720659140keep us up to date on your adventures
>>720659028>~23 hit Zeal continues swinging through empty air.kek, that shit was so silly, also fuck the bug where if you missed first attack rest also auto-missed
>>720659136Answer the goddamned question.
>>720657257they feel lame to play. not many spectres, the skeletons aren't that interesting, can't aura stack to juice them up like in poe1, no convocation, they're designed to die all the time, no good uniques for minionsit's just a lame archetype
>>720659140Max Dim Vision for complete peace of mind.
How did the Rogue and Mage turn evil when they didn't even touch the soulstone?
>>720659286Yes, you win.
>>720659293>not many spectresthey added like 30ish with 0.3>skeletons aren't that interestingthey need comboing with alt weapons then they're good>no convocationYou still have a keybind to move them but it's ` (left of 1) for some reason>they're designed to die all the timediffers from build to build>no good uniques for minionstouche
>>720659381Isn't the rogue an assassin for hire and the mage hungry for more power?
>>720657278It hurt their feelings that much
>>720659381Cause the writers wanted to shit on previous protags and turn them into jobbers.
>>720655473>grimdark fantasy fans when their grimdark fantasy game is grimdark
>>720659054The real bullshit was Blaze dealing several thousand damage per second. Like 5-7 at maximum, I believe. Inferno was like a shitty lighter in comparison and it was still something like 500-1500. I usually had both Energy Shield and Thunderstorm on all the time to get rid of chaff and prevent the rare instant kill bullshit out of nowhere. I don't think Energy Shield went above 63 back then but my memories are apparently fading. Definitely time for a new replay.
>>720658941Siberia is
>>720659572But women CRAVE rape though apparently
>>720659219I didn't mind usually because I could have 98% block with some bronze (I think that's legendary?) shield that has IIRC 75% base block.
>>720659634>the retard is still goingYou lost, take the L.
>>720654484Starcraft 1, Diablo 1, and Diablo 2 have insanely good voice acting. Console plebs talk about MGS, but back around 2000 Blizzard meant a level of quality beyond AAA.
>>720656512oh no why cant i play a blow up the screen while optimizing for elemental resistances simulator anymore!!!!!???
How did Marius traverse Kurast and inside the Travincal?Was Marius OP?

>>720659707WW 1h+shield barb in some patch before the WW and leech nerfs then.>still dies to Iron Maiden
>>720658164The balance was all over the place. I don't know if you can say it was better or worse than synergies, but it was at least "interesting". The biggest problem with Diablo 2 was that like half the skills in the game were straight up Noob traps that do nothing.
I loved pre-ladder D2R where /v/ would post rooms and drop high level loot.Now with constant ladder it's been shit.

>>720659721That's literally the geographic division Siberia is North Asia and the rest is in Europe>>720660205These are a native SiberiansDoes this mean it's fine for the Assassin to look like she does?

>>720661073That the vodka-slurping cyka blyat Muscovites don't get to claim the Assassin and cry about her having Asian features?
>>720659946>MP faggotryIf that tickles your fancy then sure, but we played co-op over LAN and it was great.
>>720657081True.HC with some friends was a quite fun before the expansion. Think I had like 500h played on the same Witch Doctor.
>>720660825It's a mistake older than the Internet. I'm not him, I just find your reaction strange.
>>720654160extreme jank class before D2R megabuffed and fixed him.>combat minions that synergize each other, BUT you can only have one and it kind of sucks even with extreme investment>vines are a meme>oak spirit is better than the other two in 99% of cases>wereforms have extremely fucked up attack animations with no upper limit, but extremely penalized low speeds, so starting out you attack about 1/2 the speed of other characters>rabies and hunger bugged to miss every other hit every time unless you have the correct attack rates>every fire spell has a massive cooldown>fissure and volcano both have nextdelay so they don't work together>volcano has extremely fucked up nextdelay>fissure is basically blizzard but weaker in every single way: can't multihit nuke, has nextdelay AND lastcollide (blizzard only has lastcollide), fire damage, lower damage, no mastery, longer cooldown>wind tree is retarded until you get tornado at which point you have the only decent druid build (not really a problem now that there's respec in newer versions)>twister, arctic blast, molten boulder, volcano, armageddon are meme skills (armageddon at least has a use in dueling)it's like they threw together an obvious hybrid character, and then intentionally made it as anti-hybridization possible, with tons of skills being mutually exclusive to each other. you can only have one animal of three, one vine of three, one spirit of three, you can be a werewolf OR werebear, all the fire cooldowns make it shitty to use them together or with anything else, wereforms prevent you from casting most spells. just an all around dumbfuck character
>>720659865He had rags of darkness and opium pipe of darkness to get -100% light radius and went full ninja Marius>>720659578They speedran turning barbarians into jobbers. The manual has you believe they are all superhuman gigachads and when you get to their lands they're all cowering behind a walled town and the only other live ones swat at some enemies slowly and ineffectually, walk a bit and then die
>>720637131It is far from perfect.
>>720639629Yup.>>720640102It will ruin the game ONLY if you are a tradie/gambling addict. For normal people, it will improve the game.
>>720662115>oak spiritReally neat until you realize it dies of anything farting in its general direction.
>>720661652>MP faggotryChaos Sanctuary, anon
>>720661309What?
>>720656642No, the game goes Berserk route where humans dress up in fairly down-to-earth clothes and its the monsters who walk around naked. Theres a couple of exceptions like the Mata Hari in Act 2 and the main antagonist the Countess.
>>720654160I'm not super good at the game but I found Druid to be a lukewarm middle ground that always felt like a lesser version of other classes. If I wanted to just turn into a bear and clickspam I'm better off as a Barb or Pal, if I wanted to cast spells the other magic classes do a lot more, if I wanted an army of summons the Necro does a better job. The only time I felt like my Druid had his own place in the game was on Bnet giving buffs from his support summons to the party and filling in as a placeholder if one of our roles was vacant.
>>720662641Don't even remember if v1.0 had monsters cast Iron Maiden anywhere. Might be. You can just wait it out, especially as a Paladin who can just pop a healing aura up and walk away.
>>720663120Damage was so low in classic D2 that Iron Maiden probably wouldn't even kill you. Hundreds of damage was enough to clear the whole game up to Hell Diablo.
>>720663329>Iron Maiden probably wouldn't even kill youYou could just say you've never played a whirl barb in classic.
>>720663329I only remember Iron Maiden been useful on Necromancer, not whether it was very strong. It was definitely good. Teeth were usually underrated by newer players because it's basically a shotgun. They outpaced the spear quciky enough and are much more spammable due to cost. I think the homing spirit was a meme.
>>720663120>Don't even remember if v1.0 had monsters cast Iron Maiden anywhere.It did. Chaos Sanctuary was fucking awful for Barb.
>>720663597I don't think I've ever got a Barbarian to Hell (difficulty) because it was sort of boring and least appealing to me. Might be the reason why I remember some things much worse. I definitely will start with either a Sorceress or a Necromancer once again.
Oh, one thing I remember vividly is how the namesake wiped out my first ever Necromancer's 20+ regular skeletons with just one fancy ring of his. That was painful.
>>720663493Just throw on a low physical damage weapon with perfect gems socketed, it'll still rape enemies.
I just started playing diablo 3 for the first time.What the fuck is going on here? I die in 4 hits to the basic zombies, and it takes me 100 hits to kill them. It takes a full minute of hit and runs to kill 1 enemy.
>>720664157It's okay to admit you're larping, anon.The correct socketing is 3 skulls and 3 diamonds because most of CS is undead and IM only reflects physical damage, not the bonus damage from the diamonds. You still need the leach from the skulls because whirling with a white lance or martel still does enough damage to kill you faster than you can exit whirl and pot.
Skeletal mage any good or should I keep leveling my melee skellies?
>>720664697shoutbarb wasn't a thing in 1.0?
>>720662189>The manual has you believe they are all superhuman gigachadsWell, Frenzy mercs *are* superhuman gigachads.
>>720664703just a point or 2 for chill. With +skill items they can meatshield
>>720664957>warcry>doing damagePick one, larper-kun. You didn't have synergies, let alone the required uniques, to make it a viable solo build back then.
>>720661309>seething cockholekekaroo
>>720662115>vines are a memeVines are still a meme.>rabies and hunger bugged to miss every other hit every time unless you have the correct attack ratesRabies are still bugged, and suck ass without endgame equipment.
>>720664697>6 sockets>d2 classicWho's the LARPer? You got a max of 3 sockets in classic, you poseur.
>>720665891>whirling with anything but a 2hander in classicDo you enjoy being retarded?
