[TTOOLL]

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Yasssss!

 

[Kimahri]

Le sigh. Diablo 1 would be more exciting for me.

 

[jaysius]

Can't make a new good one because you fucked up the last one, making it little more than a cookie clicker with it's lack of difficulty, bring back the one that works.

TECH ALPHA isn't even ready? Sweet fuck this is going to take forever.

 

[Desless1]

My God this will consume sooo many hours of my life.

Mephisto run, here I come.

 

[GHG]

Fuck yes.

Looks decent as well. Day 0.

 

[Tickle My Tendies]

Damn dude, it came out 20 years ago?

I feel so old

Cross-progression is nice touch, looks like a nice facelift. Very excited to play it again

 

[kraspkibble]

Fuck yas

 

[Nikana]

I will end up triple dipping with cross progression...PC, Switch, and Xbox.

 

[Lux R7]

give it to me now! that's amazing holy hell!

 

[harmny]

Can't make a new good one because you fucked up the last one, making it little more than a cookie clicker with it's lack of difficulty, bring back the one that works.

TECH ALPHA isn't even ready? Sweet fuck this is going to take forever.

but they are making a new one

 

[Tg89]

Lets fucking go.

As someone who still plays D2 almost daily, long time coming. Between the brief clips and the fact they seem to have gotten MrLlama's input, im hyped.

 

[amigastar]

I'm curious if Loot will get a rework also.

 

[Red Rackham's Revenge]

Ok this looks good. I was afraid they would "remaster" into a cartoony look.

 

[GHG]

I legit might buy a switch to play this in bed.

 

[Beer Baelly]

Day one on Xbox baby!

 

[LisaMariaMartin]

Kinda looks like a prettier Path of Exile. This is exactly the artstyle they should have used for Diablo 3.

 

[AlteredForms]

 

[martino]

they did it.
let see more details.
they will need more to get some of my trust back

 

[Ovek]

Well colour me suprised they didn’t fucking ruin it.

 

[sircaw]

i am a very happy old man tonight, old fish i mean.

 

[ItsTheNew]

I just want couch co op. That opened up the world of gaming with me and my GF.

 

[bender]

Triple Dip (PC, PS5, Switch).

 

[HF2014]

Ooooo yeah!

 

[Fake]

They lost the oportunity of call Diablo 2 reforged.

 

[CuteFaceJay]

LOL No thanks, After seeing what the did to Warcraft I'm not about to relive that groundhogs day all over again.

 

[LazyParrot]

Looks pretty good. But so did the Warcraft 3 Remaster when they first showed it off.

 

[Revolutionary]

I think I liked it more when you couldn't really see their faces in-game

Seriously though, it looks good. But I'm going to laugh when they slap some modesty bras onto Charsi and Andariel lol

 

[AJUMP23]

Looking forward to playing this again.

 

[Fake]

Poor Amazon.

 

[Bladed Thesis]

LETS GO!

 

[{insert code here}]

For the love of God please don't fuck with the skill tree mechanics. Otherwise I'm in for the PC/PS4 versions day fucking one!

 

[LordCBH]

Hopefully it doesn’t suck like the one for Warcraft 3

 

[Tomeru]

My God this will consume sooo many hours of my life.

Mephisto run, here I come.

So many hours? How about all the hours? Cuz once I fire it up, only an act of god will make me stop playing.

 

[Werewolfgrandma]

I legit might buy a switch to play this in bed.

stream from PC to phone and use a ps4/xbox controller with a clip thing. Its what I do

 

[Saber]

Well its cool, looks exciting...but still theres no garantee this won't be another reforged and broken promises outside the fact that the Crash Team is behind it.

Won't be spending money on this until I know what I'm dealing with. Gonna take my time, months or even a year to see if they're up to make this game worth its name. Its not a farming game we're talking about, Diablo 2 is my childhood.

 

[K' Dash]

Cross progression sold me on it.

 

[Fake]

Price?

 

[Rathalos]

In my veins! I used to play this to death as a kid. It actually looks really, really well done.

 

[Dampf]

Looks incredible

 

[Bodomism]

That was good

 

[BigbyTheSheriff]

Price?

40$.

 

[Null Persp]

Wow, looks great.

 

[Spukc]

feels good.. paying 10 euro's for 1 pet + wings fuck it i need this so bad

 

[brian0057]

It's like people forgot WarCraft III: Reforged was a thing that actually happened.
Hype this game up at your own peril.

 

[TTOOLL]

They'd better make some QOL changes. Stash space is atrocious in vanilla D2


It looks good etc, but c'mon dudes, stop pre ordering shit. Game is not going to disappear

 

[Spukc]

It's like people forgot WarCraft III: Reforged was a thing that actually happened.
Hype this game up at your own peril.

this looks good reforged looked like sheit

 

[CamHostage]

Excellent.

I'm a little sad that the developer Vicarious Visions gets no credit for this now. (Activision unceremoniously folded the studio into Blizzard recently; VV is the studio that did THPS 1+2 and Crash NSane Trilogy.) Ultimately though, it is a Blizzard game.

LOL No thanks, After seeing what the did to Warcraft I'm not about to relive that groundhogs day all over again.

I would assume that's one of the reasons why they got a good studio experienced in fan-lauded remasters to make this one.

 

[Fuz]

Did they just kill Diablo 4?
