Diablo II: Resurrected Review – Another Warcraft III: Reforged? - Wccftech
Oct 10, 2021 2 mins, 0 secs
Following Warcraft III: Reforged, Activision didn't trust Blizzard to develop Diablo II: Resurrected, handing it over to Vicarious Visions, leaving Blizzard in charge of the backend and Battle.Net integration.

I've had a few times where I've timed out due to work or other matters, and Battle.Net has thrown a strop and will not let me reconnect unless I close the game?

It may be a PlayStation 5 only issue, I don't know if the same thing happens on the PC, but it's something that's hit me twice now.

I can't help but praise Vicarious Visions in their development of Diablo II: Resurrected and the aim to keep this as close to the original as possible.

Much like many things you see in the game, this is a relic, a fossil, a spirit of a bygone era, and it's proud of it.

While a few quality of life changes have happened, it's still the game we all loved.

Diablo II: Resurrected is a game with masses of content, but it's also a game that makes you work for that content.

It's almost pointless for me to run through every character and have multiple trees to go down, letting you choose your path.

It's pointless for me to tell you that I have returned to the same sort of character I was playing almost two decades ago, a necromancer that loves to raise little skelly-buddies to molest all of the creatures and demons around.

With Diablo II: Resurrected, you'll find yourself fighting through five huge acts: The four from the original, and then Lords of Destruction acts as the fifth and final act.

The original is an old game before hot bar sensibilities were a thing, so this implementing it makes perfect sense.

I genuinely wish they had gone just a few steps further with quality of life changes.

If there's any difficulty in playing Diablo II: Resurrected, it's that..?

You can always play this as though you don't know anything about the original, maybe you don't, or you've never heard of GameFAQ's.

It's not something I can hold against the game, it's a legend.

Diablo II is one of the best ARPG's in gaming history, and Vicarious Visions haven't made many changes for Diablo II: Resurrected

A few quality of life changes help keep this fresh and make it playable on consoles, but it just doesn't go far enough at points
