I know, I've tried it a couple of times in Monkey Island 1 & 2, but it's a rather pointless feature unless you're very nostalgic about playing the game with the exact same graphics and audio (but then what's the point of playing a 1:1 remake?).It's standard in most of 1:1 remakes (Monkey Island, Halo, Command and Conquer).
Point is to play on modern hardware instead of super old console or computer which with high probablity doesn't work anymore. Most of remakes are targeted for old fans anyway.but then what's the point of playing a 1:1 remake
For me, MI remasters, the new graphics do not hold up :/... art style is quite bad. Diablo II: Resurrected not bad actually .I know, I've tried it a couple of times in Monkey Island 1 & 2, but it's a rather pointless feature unless you're very nostalgic about playing the game with the exact same graphics and audio (but then what's the point of playing a 1:1 remake?).
you work at blizzard?Showed the reveal to some old timey D2 players I know. They don't really get hyped over modern games, but this? This got them emotional.

So, loot works the same so a controller spammer will be picking up all the loot before you see it lol. That and no local co-op is sad.
Sadly i feel so much like this cliché for now....
you work at blizzard?
"So here's some info about Diablo 4, You've all got mobiles right?"I think I've put more time into their products than I have into some of the jobs I've had. So...yes. Except I pay them, they don't pay me.
Diablo 4 looks great, but they've yet to drop the bomb on that one. Just give em time, they've yet to talk about their monetization strategy. That's going to be a fun news day.
Come on now, Diablo 4 and Immortal aren't made by the same company."So here's some info about Diablo 4, You've all got mobiles right?"
Yeah I know, was just messing, I still laugh at that video though, I dont think I've ever seen anyone read a room so badlyCome on now, Diablo 4 and Immortal aren't made by the same company.
Lol even loot works the same!
To be honest that’s one area I wouldn’t mind a modern touch, I don’t feel like running an autoloot script.
And speaking about tools, I wonder if they’ll get a maphack running...
I always feel sorry for the developers of these kind of games with a cult following, they literally cant win with any new games. Half the lunatics demand it to stick to the originals, dont you dare change things....the other half of the lunatics then just moan and whine because "its just more of the same"....Poor bastards get abuse no matter what they do.You an me both but I was watching that Mr. Llama and he was talking about how if they made the looting different "it wouldn't be Diablo 2.". I swear purists can be the worst.
Yeah Blizzard literally sent him out to die on that stage.Yeah I know, was just messing, I still laugh at that video though, I dont think I've ever seen anyone read a room so badly
I mean, I agree that there are things they could fix without ruining the essence of the game, like stacking gems / runes for example, but I'm not sure what you're getting at with the shared stash. You don't like purists but want to keep muling, one of the dumbest aspects of D2?You an me both but I was watching that Mr. Llama and he was talking about how if they made the looting different "it wouldn't be Diablo 2.". I swear purists can be the worst. I would have loved something new in Demon's Souls as well, but the meganerds, would cause an uproar. Who wants to compete for loot, honestly? So a barb will be looting more GG items than a ranged character. And now with shared stash no one will be sharing save personal friends. It's annoying that they couldn't fix that.
I'm so fucking pumped
Did they ever get rid of the hackers?As someone who has only ever played D3 on console and really loved it, colour me excited.
Check out Project Diablo 2Did they ever get rid of the hackers?
Edit: I somewhat forget D2... but if ther'es as many hackers as were in D1 and console D3 then I'm out...

Most of the good drops come from bosses, who everyone stands right next to when they die anyway, barbs grabbing the loot has never been an issue... you have 1/8 chance of getting it though.
can we please get controller support in Diablo 3 now?!?
I think this would be a lot of work. The UI isn't made for controllers either on PC.can we please get controller support in Diablo 3 now?!?
If d3 was your first game, you might lower your expectations. The game is great for those who grew up with it, but it's missing a lot of QOL stuff we take for granted today.Ive never played diablo 2. I love three though, i cant wait to try this

-Infinite respecs is a serious QOL. But you can do infinite if you farm for mats.Say, you wouldn't be someone who defines infinite respecs as "QOL stuff", would you?

-Having a skill bar instead of a left and right mouse damage ability
-losing items on you after you die (it's not a problem, just different from Diablo 3)
-inventory is smaller. Items has bigger sizes, and you have charms that also takes space.
You only get to see that on the character selection screen, so no big deal honestly. Anyway, the devs have said that they are listening to feedback and going to fix it, so hopefully she'll be less ugly in the final game.If the "new" Amazon's look stays, I will not be buying this. I figured they would ruin this somehow, I can't expect much with their track record. I will wait until this is actually in the hands of players before even considering it.
The Ninja Stars didn't give it away?The have also made the assassin an asian for some reason
20 years of diablo 2 on my belt. Fucking hate D3. And yet i want controler support. D3 on console convinced me. Because i realized that tying character movement to targeting instead of it having detached is fucking stupid idea. And all it took was 15 minutes.
Moreover you are effectively looking at twinstick beat em up game.
Now that D2 will come with controler support it will be best great version.
Ninja stars are cool everywhere bro.The Ninja Stars didn't give it away?
I never said these things were bad, I'm just saying that people who are used to these modern features could get pulled off by Diablo 2. Personally I can't wait myself and will spend years replaying this again.Ehhh...I'll give you 2/4. Maybe the UI revamp will solve #2, as you ended up using a ton of skills via hotkeys anyway. Showing them all would be nice. #4 is a balance thing, if they added larger inventory they'd have to nerf charms into the ground. You're literally trading convenience for power with them. If you take away the cost, then you gotta lower the power.
Imagine skipping what seems like a loving remaster of a top 5 PC games of all time title because you don't like a face on the character select screen.I'm psyched for this, but yeah..that new Amazon...what the hell. It's like someone is making fun of that "Maam" meme. I don't get how any group can be happy with visual, regardless of their stance on the subject matter.
LOL. Fuck that hordratic cube. That thing was rigged.Can't wait to listen to Deckard Cain's demented ramblings about Horadric this and Horadric that again.
My body is ready.
