Diablo II Resurrected Open Beta 8/20/2021
 

Open Beta starts this coming Friday - looks like its open to everyone even if you didn't pre-order. See you in Sanctuary maggots

https://www.pcgamer.com/diablo-2-res...-this-weekend/

Or you can play diablo 2 with various mods that have large active communities.

Season 3 PD2 just came out (closer to D2)

Median XL 2.0 coming out Aug 27th (d2 on steroids)
https://www.median-xl.com

Both have end game content. So you can play D2R and do 100k baal runs or either of these mods for D2 LoD which expand the original content.

I'll be playing median xl on aug 27th weekend if anyone else is, PM me and we can play together or I can help you.

Blizzard/Activision is a dumpster fire.

I'm more excited for the graphics upgrade and modernization changes. I cant bring myself to play real old school D2, looks like utter garbage

I am by no means a graphics snob either - I love SNES and even NES (and EQ obviously)

Original D2 had that fake parallax scrolling perspective you could toggle, which looked like dog shit but provided somewhat of a 3d effect. The remake seems to completely lack that, the environments are just totally static and there's no sense of depth or perspective. I'm assuming that's because they realized if they added that it would just look exactly like Diablo 4, cause it looks gorgeous in that, and they don't wanna cannibalize any shine D4 has.

median xl for example is going to have 4k resolution support. I'm just saying.

a dog turd in 4k is still a dog turd. im just saying

I will probably check out Median XL - looks aight

Installing the beta now - PM me if you want to group up!

game looks fun but tbh its not something I would buy

still rocking with my smiter paladin over at chaos sanctuary B)

blizzard games can go eat a dick

u can hop on for free and do some diablos ii's with big polygonal boobies and amazon bros :D
