 "A real unbiased review" | 2004-09-10 |

| I am a Blizzard fan, I have bought many of the previous games that the company released like Starcraft and Warcraft 2, both of which are not only some of the best games I have ever played, but in the case of Starcraft, the single best game I have ever played and a game which I probably have played more than any other game. So I had high expectations of Diablo 2. Diablo 2 feature pretty impressive sound, good multiplayer, and is a mildly fun game. The only real problem though, ends up being the downfall of the whole game. Diablo 2 doesn't have a real good story and is almost totally linear, not involving many tasks that are not part of the storyline. Now a lot of times this is not a problem. However, in Diablo 2, it's linear nature is a huge problem because of the pedantic gameplay. The gamplay is fun for a couple hours, but by the time you reach act 3, you will be totally sick of just hacking through millions of monsters at every turn, and i'm not kidding, there are monsters everywhere in this game. Now the game being linear, there is nothing to take away from the boredom and frustration of fighting millions of monsters. After I beat this game I decided to check out the game on the internet, as this is usually where blizzard games shine. Unfortunately, in Diablo 2, there is no real difference between the internet gameplay and the single player gameplay. On the internet, you and other players are stuck in games of about 8 people, where the mission is to journey through the 4 stages of the first person game. That was a major shock to me, as I thought that if blizzard had made the multiplayer game include new maps and more pvp combat with allies against allies and goals to accomplish it would make up for the bad single player experience. Unfortunately blizzard did not do this, and I gave up playing the game totally because after playing the levels on the internet with a new character i had to level up from the beggining, I realized that it was more of a chore than fun. In the end I can say only a couple good things about this game: one the cinema scenes are spectacular, and two the multiplayer network is so solid from years of hosting diablo and starcraft that even though i did not like playing the game, i would play every once in awhile by getting sucked in through talking with people in the battlenet chat boards. If this isn't your opinion, fine, but I have been fair in this review to the best of my abilities. | |

| OK, if your reading this your considering buying this game. Don't consider it, BUY IT! Here's a short list of the games characteristics: - interesting quests - completely costomizable characters - great melee and spell combat - incredible variation of skills - great multiplayer capabilities (including party spells) - good graphics and movement - the best inventory and weopons' system I've ever seen - very entrancing storyline - awesome replay value I BOUGHT THIS GAME A YEAR AGO AND I'M STILL PLAYING IT (not bored at all) | |
 "diablo franchise has lost its freshness" | 2002-02-16 |

| i enjoyed the first diablo. and i don't have a disdain for twitch games--i fire up unreal for a botmatch more frequently than i'd like to admit. but D2, which should have been the fantasty-twitch bomb, just didn't cut it for me. perhaps it was because i've been spoiled by the baldur's gate series in the years since D1's mac release. you can't find peaceful solutions to hostile encounters in D2 (not that you'd always want to, but BG gives you that option often enough). the D2 quests basically consist of killing heaps and mounds of evil, after you've taken off the thin veneer of back-story; fetch-this quests also boil down to simple blood-letting. you kill a spectral wraith, and you get a random item such as leather armor--doesn't make a lot of sense, since it's hard to see why an ethereal creature would carry such a thing. this is, again, in contrast to BG, in which dispatching a baddie nets you the sword he was hacking you with, or the armor he was wearing. i guess i want my fantasy adventures to make a bit of sense, magic and stuff notwithstanding. BG lets you pick pockets, throw long-winded and sometimes intensely funny taunts at opponents before battle, cancel an enemy mage's magic with your own magic, and lead NPCs down dialogue paths to obtain more information; when talking to NPCs, you can choose to be polite or mouthy. i'm less than halfway through the D2, but it's going to be difficult to finish; there's not a lot motivating me to go on. simply put, D2 bores me. sorry to bring this back to baldur's gate again, but i think i would have enjoyed D2 a heck of a measure more in a baldur-less world. but now there's no going back--i'd rather immerse myself in a richer, more tactical game world that might be slower-paced than slice thru another army of personality-less monsters. | |
| "Great Game, but slow performance" | 2001-10-01 |
| - Reviewed By pm867man | |
| The game is great, graphics are slow. I have a B/W G3 400Mhz with 512MB of RAM and a Radeon Graphics Card and i can only get 15-20FPS (thats Frames Per Second) but when fighting a boss or when alot of monsters come onto the screen the FPS drops to 5-10FPS and that is totaly unplayable. I have found out that when playing Online i get 25-35FPS I dont know why but I do. So I guess what i am trying to say is if you dont have a G4 Mac then dont waste your time or money buying this game. But if you still want it please download the demo first then buy the game if you think it is OK. | |
| "Is this a Sequel?" | 2001-08-18 |
| - Reviewed By pclarke@u.arizona.edu | |
| Though I love the rich storyline of Diablo II, I find it hard to believe this is a sequel. The gameplay has hardly changed, the powers are similar. What's different from Diablo 1? The scenery and the graphics quality. So many times Blizzard releases an expansion, why not now? There is nothing done in Diablo II that Diablo 1 could not have handled. In all, I gave this game three stars for its story and ideas. It has an interesting metaplot that unravels as you progress. The graphics are also spectacular, though sometimes they seem choppy or cartoonish. Would I recommend this game? Absolutely. Will you enjoy it? I did, but I just don't see the difference from the original. | |
