So... I'm guessing they lost the source code, right?

All they had to do was to slap together a source port and spend all those years not on matching a new 3D game to the feel of a 20-year-old 2D game, but on re-drawing the sprites and iterating until everything feels right in hi-def 2D. It would've been cheaper, faster, and would've yielded a better result.

Better yet, release the source code and just give D2 to the fanbase. They'd do a better job in a matter of weeks. Added bonus of much-needed good press.

Fuck this industry.

While the gameplay graphics look kind of OK-ish, I guess, the character models are fucking atrocious. The amazon is a complete trainwreck.

Time will tell, as usual. I want to believe, but I've burnt myself too many times.

Am I seeing things or is the Paladin a black guy now?

Tha paladin was always black, albeit with somewhat caucasoid facial features.

Also, thanks to the low-rez graphics it was easier to pretend the paladin was white.

They went full-negro in the remaster, tho.

Real question is are they taking down the ability to buy or download the original diablo 2 on the bluzzard website like warcraft 3

Anybody that has their old Diablo 2 manual would know the Sorceress in her artwork was a real FOX, undertits and all.
