I didn't play it online. But with warcraft 3 I think they didn't do a bad job. However, I was routing for it being ok it failed, after it failed because then age of empires 2 got more attention.

Warcraft 3 graphics update was shitty but just turn them off. I liked how they didn't change much.

I’ve been playing Diablo 2 since the announcement of the remaster. The game still holds up nicely, however I gotta say it’s extremely repetitive. Maybe it’s the class I chose or my age now but I find it to be kind of boring and unchallenging.

The music is top notch though. The soundtrack was done by the same person who did my favorite world of Warcraft expansion soundtrack, The Burning Crusade.

That was my initial assessment back in the day. I did congratulate the devs on improving the Skinner Box tho. Up until Diablo games didn't throw a bundle of sparkly junk loot for you to pick the best item out of. Until Diablo you got your gear as reward for quests or out of some chest after defeating all the guards. Diablo introduced the instant reward mechanic where almost any mob and many many 'boss' mobs just exploded with rewards. How could you not mindlessly keep clicking after that?

Taking away the loot-rush feeling and Diablo has a very repetitive and shallow loop.

I think that's an accurate assessment. I will say there is fun to be had though, the atmosphere of the game is fantastic.

Diablo 3 is pretty good now after 10 years of patches. Not sure D2 is going to scratch the nostalgia itch that some are craving

I refuse to log on until my room is clean and my catbabbies washed and groomed. And a healthy breakfast plus walk.

At my highest points of addiction I still took showers before logging in, well most of the time.
