    I like games with less monsters on screen. If one monster is a challenge, you're afraid of waking around, it adds to the atmosphere so much. If you're character can kill 10 generic monsters at once, you're not afraid if waking anymore. You're just too strong to be afraid.

    The butcher was super terrifying on a first playthrough because all you saw was a part of a bloody room and there was the sense of “should I open that or just keep moving”

      @TheCraziestFox Месяц назад

      I also realized one thing that is absent from modern versions.
      If you play Diablo on period hardware, Butcher's line isn't loaded. It loads from the CD when you open the door causing a slight freeze and by the time it rebounds back and plays his line, Butcher is already in your face or at least most of the way to the door, which made it far scarier.

    Pretty much agree with everything. I've been wanting a Diablo remaking and you pretty much described the game I wanted. I love the idea of an open ended skill system, but the remake should expand the number of skills. Something I think could be done with the skill system is to make it so that the more you use a skill the stronger it becomes. Weapons would also get their own proficiencies, where the more you use a weapon the more damaging, accurate, and faster you become with them. You also would be limited to the number of skills you can learn. This would make it so you don't have to worry about heavy theory crafting, keep the skill system open ended, but still force the player to make some choices with what skills and weapons they use.
    I think the dungeons should also go hundreds of levels deep, beyond the main story content, to really test the players skill.

      1) censorship
      2) hyper realistic graphics that take away from the "ugly in a good way" and creepy feel and look of the game and world, artstyle sacrificed. Cutscenes look like Warcraft now, like a spin off to that rather than it's own thing. Not good.

      @AndreiCatalin42069 I still play with the old graphics too, I don't mind it. I'm just impressed with how D2R turned out, despite what everyone expected. I'd love to see D1 get the same treatment, tho with the underlying game left alone. No story changes, censoring, rebalancing, etc. I could even leave out new cutscenes, just update the existing ones. The only "change" I would make to the base game is to enable the cut content (which is all in the original game, just disabled) and maybe add a stash. That's it.

    If they remade Diablo, they just need to add in all the original cut content (many of the HD mod versions already do). I wouldn't reveal anything new in cut scenes or new dialog tho, part of what made Diablo great was how the story was just trickled out a little bit at a time, and you had to be paying attention to what you were reading or being told. The later games clubbed you over the head with more and more story all the time, and I never liked that as much. In Diablo, you had to "earn" the full reveal of the story, which was much better. Most of the game, you got hardly any story, so everything was a mystery until probably 2/3 of the way into the playthru. I'm all for more cinematics, but not ones that are full of lore and story elements. I loved the fact that the story during your playthru had no characters really knowing anything about what was going on, and it only gets pieced together near the end of the game. The only additional content i would add in would be the original cut content (which is in the existing game, just disabled) and maybe add a stash like D2 had. Thats it tho.

    I have a buddy who is 13 years younger than me. His first encounter with Diablo was Diablo three. A fun game, but a more beer and pretzels version of what we had growing up. For Christmas this year he is getting a switch and Diablo two remastered so I can finally show him what a real challenge is. Getting to plan an updated Diablo one would be an incredible adventure.

      @allyoucangamebuffet reimagining of the genre, maybe. Marathon being a story driven single player game with tacked on Arena PvP, much like Halo, is very different from the class based extraction PvEvP game the new one is. But the story and universe itself is meant to be a spinoff in the same universe as M1&2, taking place some time after I believe M1, but before M2.
      So everything from M1 is canon, and everything in M2 and 3 will still happen afterwards.

      Yes, but there is still lot of work being done for item ballancing.
      Best experiance so far is by playing with single class of the Diablo 2 classes.
      Once you get the Horadrim Cube, clicking on it once will make it spawn close to you so you can click on it as a forge for crafting items.
      There are all the receipe there and plus added new rune words that does not exist in the original game and also added relics for Diablo 2 characters.
      Also most rune words have added modifiers that modify both diablo 2 classes skills and Grim dawn character skills.

    Strongly disagree with your ideas. D1 needs no more than D2 did. Gold as a number instead of piles in your inventory, more hotkeys for skills. Graphics. And auto attack on click instead of having to keep clicking. *Maybe* a shared stash. That is all. Start changing or adding story elements and it's not the same thing. Diablo 1 was dark, grim and terrifying. You didn't know what was down there, except that it was demonic, evil, and it brought Tristram to it's knees. Start doing big cutscenes explaining everything and that is lost.

    I haven't played this game since it came out so its been a long time. Loved the music, and voice acting, and the game in general, but I don't remember there being much content to it for it to be remade. There was that Hellfire xpac as I recall, and it wasn't made by blizzard, and to be honest, I didn't like it. It took away the vibe of the game for me with I think it was bugs. I don't want bugs. I want dead creepy stuff to kill. I'd order it if they made it so I had it in my account, but I think it would be done so fast these days that it would just be a bunch of drama over paying what ever Blizz would charge for a game that is over so fast.
