like it's not. between being buggy,people losing characters,can't play offline or getting kicked from a private session and no local multi-player it doesn't seem like it's worth $20. I loved playing the game on PC when I was 16, I played for hours on end. Never got bored with the game but the reviews make it seem like it's not the same game I played back then.

Wait what, no offline play?

Even on like switch? I was thinking of picking that up as it seemed fun on my giant gameboy.

Also this game came out not too long after that scandal where Blizzard bullied an employee to suicide, so a lot of people are probably against the game for that reason.

The original version had local multi-player I believe. I know the OG Diablo did

But why would people lie about the game? You have to own the game to even leave a review.

seems like it would be more annoying than anything, being limited to the other players radius

But if it's really buggy and the game doesn't work like it should then I'm out $20. Microsoft is really picky about giving refunds.

Near launch the servers were overwhelmed so you had to sit in some shitty queue that never moved to try and log in. It seemed like that never got fixed as people just stopped playing and the problem took care of itself.

I lost items and progress but never any actual chatacters. I seem to remember reading that at least got fixed. Beyond that, it was a pretty normal experience but the gameplay was so dated that I kind of lost interest. I'd rather just play PoE

I hear you and everything, but look at it this way: It's $20. Take a fucking chance

Game was buggy at launch and screwed up save files and deleted characters. It's fine now though. It's the same game with nicer graphics.

It's been on sale for the past couple of months, might be persistent. Reviews are a bit outdated since it's been supported with more content and QoL enhancements since release.

Anyways, D2 is in my Top 10 games ever and D2R only reaffirms that.
PM for a rush or random junk.

Still enjoy the announcement trailer, great final line:

you'll definitely get your 20$ worth on and more.

i couldn't get past hell difficulty at the starting area :(. on barbarian and valkyrie.
it's not going to stop me to buy it in the future though it'll end up being a off/on again game.
