Online vs. Offline
Which one you prefer and why?
>>
I don't play Diablo 2 super often but I quite enjoy playing it alone. I tried playing with my cousin once and he's like... super sweaty when it comes to this game, and I couldn't even keep up with him the entire time and it kinda sucked and wasn't fun. So, I'd say alone is better because I can take my time and play the game my way.
>>
the novelty of online wore off as I aged so it's always offline for me.
>>
>>749111821
I have never given a fuck about Diablo online. You literally just see other people run by.
>>
>>749111821
For LoD, offline since cheat engine top speed up the slop
For the warlock one I pirated offline so I can use faster run/walk
>>
Offline SSF and mod it to increase rarities x10
just get the loot goblinism out of your system and move on
>>
>>749111821
I would kill for offline D3
>>
>>749112125
Can't you just make a private lobby?
>>
>>749112347
you need to be online and rely on their servers even if you play alone
>>
>>749112125
Switch port
>>
>>749111821
The problem with online ladder grind in this game is that you're severely penalized for playing solo compared to players8, and playing with randos tends to be a crapshoot. You really need a static group to grind optimally. Solo doesn't have this problem.
>>
I started a warlock and didn't like it after act 1. I've never cared about grinding d2 online or off so I just started another necromancer because he's cool for solo play until my retarded build and act 3 combine to annoy me into uninstalling.
>>
>>749111870
BASED. Get to level 99 and get in that closed invite.
>>
>>749111821
Vanilla?
Online= Easy mode, free loot, trading, you can ask randoms to help you with bosses, you can play with friends.
Offline= Normal/Hard mode (unless you use save editors, then it's very easy mode), you're on your own, from start to finish, only QoL is infinte respec and players 1-8.
Mods? Project Diablo?
Awesome, but way too much stuff in them, I can barely keep up with items etc. from vanilla.
>>
>>749111870
I always go back to PD2 at least once a year, so good.
>>
>>749111821
offline never got the appeal of online shit in a diablo and that ruined diablo itself and the likes
>>
>>749112125
emulate switch version
>>
>>749114959
That seems really shitty.
>>
>>749115154
diablo3 isnt worth to be more than shitty

playing with IRL friends > playing solo >> random online cunts

Fair enough.

Solo online

>nuD2 has no LAN support
I hate it thanks.
>>
online solo because offline is capped to 20 fps and makes the cursor feel like shit
>>
>>749111821
Offline for the first run to experience everything at my pace.
Offline with friends for the second run and onwards since I already know what's going on.
>>
>>749111821
Offline for sure. Online is full of bots, and the shitty servers will kick you if you make lobbies too often.
>>
>>749115456
this pic is a time warp portal
>>
>>749115723
Are you okay anon? that isn't the case at all, I play offline solo almost exclusively
>>
>>749116776
I'm talking about OG Diablo 2, the game is hard capped 25 FPS offline without mods to unlock it and it definitely affects how smooth the mouse feels. Online you can bypass the fps cap.
>>
Online.
Offline modes are illegitimate and the only people who prefer them are ones who just want the cheat the game.
>I just wanna instantly skip to endgame
>I just wanna spawn in BiS gear without having to farm for it
>This boss is too "tedious", I'm going to just command prompt instant kill it to get it over with
etc etc.

Offline is for shitters.

>softcorefag
opinion discarded, enjoy the lag spikes retard
>>
Online
I just buy my gear with real money and skip all the boring farming and grinding and go straight to end game.
>>
>>749111821
Offline.
>>
>>749118873
Imagine not having two sojs at the start of a ladder
>>
>>749111821
While i usually play solo, i prefer to do it online. I like to show off my character in the menu and the opportunity to play with others adds more dopamine when i progress my character.
>>
>>749119137
Also, i always played Diablo 2 online in my childhood, so it adds to the nostalgia factor
>>
>>749111821
Online

The economy is the best part of the game. The fact that most people play D2R in utter silence 99% of the time is just sad
>>
>>749111821
offline

Online only with friends
>>
>>749119340
>>This boss is too "tedious", I'm going to just command prompt instant kill it to get it over with
Yeah, but that dopamine rush offline when you get some good gear is godly.
>>
>>749120324
Even more godly than online? I think fucking not!
>>
>>749120376
but online you can get gear for free in various "free items" rooms.
>>
Offline. If you play online then you farm for items that are good for other people, not for yourself. You don't find your own valuable items, instead you trade for them. Kind of kills it for me. It's fun with friends of course, but I have no friends and never will.
>>
The one time you snap back to a previous position because the online servers lagged you will never connect to them again.
There is that cool effect where the map doesn't load because the servers are borked and you can walk up to unloaded map tiles (the void) but...I'd rather play the game.
