Let's have a good thread.
Does resurrected have different inventory behavior than classic? Control clicking to throw stuff into the stash gives some utterly insane nonsensical behavior: putting an item bottom right then an identical item top left, then the next several top right then bottom right again. Straight fucking deranged.

I tried Torchlight 2 since I wanted a single player ARPG and holy shit is it badWho the fuck designed knock back as a mechanic? What do people have against melee characters?Every enemy in the game either knocks you back (sometimes to another screen) or runs away from you.
>>120354461 was good, 2 not so. More was not better.
>>12035447It's absolutely insane that they released the game in that state. There's not even a dedicated summoner role. All summoning skills have lower duration than cooldown until level 95. Somehow there's less variety with 4 characters than 3.
Putting on 5 pieces of 10% lvl3 charged bolt in act 1 amuses me more than it should.

>>12035506I used to love doing this, especially with frost nova items.
>>12035446>>12035447>>12035448I played TL1 on XBLA back in the day. Decent little game, nowhere close to as good as Diablo but fine for what it was. Tried TL2 later, didn't make it far enough to get pissed at any mechanics, though. The tumblr nose art style, weird pirate theme and all of the skills being nearly fucking identical filtered me long before the gameplay.
>>12035105>Control clicking to throw stuff into the stashI wonder how many people have played D2 for years without realizing you could do this or other things like mapping skills to F keys.
>>12035509>look mom i posted it againthe generals aren't going away, and i'm not sure why you'd want them to. the generals on this board are where you'll find most of the actual discussion related to video games and not pure shitposting (chinkheld general being the exception to the rule). is something like /cbg/ really such a blight compared to the 10,000th "how do you save the Dreamcast?" thread or some guy spamming rule 34 of Mario and Luigi having sex? let it go man.
>>12035125This looks so much more fun than the PC version.
>>12035829DevilutionX can be a big help but compared strictly to vanilla PC Diablo 1 yeah, I'm liking this a lot more for singleplayer in spite of the cutbacks and godawful save times (that's where states are helping me).
>>12035835Definitely gonna give this a shot next. I've tried to get into D1 on PC many times but it just never clicked, and having to use mods to make the game playable is unacceptable to my autism. This though, I dig the speed, less inttusive HUD and the slightly crispier look. What are playing on, duckstation?
>>12035125Did they add a glow to the gold coins??
>>12035846That's through Retroarch though Duckstation is also good if not better. The big thing for me is the smoother player movement, they move on a smaller grid like in D2 without feeling like it makes much of a gameplay difference. You can enable gamepad support in DevilutionX but it's not the same.>>12035853There's glow on those, torches, and other lightsources such as spell effects. There's a lot of colored lighting too. The downside to all this is having severely reduced enemy frame animations. Not a bad tradeoff especially when you see Tristram: Animated birds, reflection in the water, it's really nice.
Just finished normal with my paladin in diablo 2 classic 1.05b. Put too many points in zeal and he does too many hits per attack, which is annoying. Found a decent rare pike and started charging stuff instead - surprisingly effective.Couldn't for the life of me find a decent 1h weapon. Rares are really, well... rare in this patch. Farming bosses isn't nearly as effective: they only yield rares the first time I kill them.Been doing pretty ok other than that. Guess pally is balanced enough to carry through hell, since he relies on weapon rather than skill damage. Got killed a couple times in CS though, because of iron maiden. Let's see how NM fares.
*sip* yep. It's gaming time
