For those who have never played Diablo II, we do suggest just starting a solo adventure first, and let yourself be enveloped by the experience that is Diablo II. While the story contains many (still) impressive cinematics and a reasonable amount of story content, it’s mainly all about the gameplay. You, an unnamed warrior (of your own choosing) will track down all the forces of evil and try to put a stop to it, once and for all. In short, the world of Sanctuary once again finds itself in great peril after the resurfacing of the Lord of Terror, Diablo. Those unfamiliar with the story of Diablo II may have found themselves living under Mount Everest for the last two decades. That being said, we did enjoy this grim trip down memory lane, even though we found ourselves leaving the world of Sanctuary sooner than we expected. The game is still good, but it misses a lot of its old-school charm and even lacks the basic matchmaking functions it had back in 2000. While a fair amount of effort was put into the Resurrected version of Diablo II, we didn’t get the same quality experience as we did 20 years ago. The Diablo II remaster has been handled by Vicarious Visions, who made sure the game received a massive graphical overhaul, as well as the ability to run on our modern consoles. While Blizzard is in hot water these last few months, and many issues are rightfully being addressed, we are going to be focusing on the developer’s performance, rather than the big publisher’s ethics.
