People who complain about imbalance remind me of Harrison Bergeron. If you want balance, try checkers.

Not PvP balance. God knows I never played Diablo for PvP.

It's basic game progression balance. Difficulty curve is broken all to shit. The game stopped being fun years ago because of this.

Let's be more sarcastic because we're afraid to be vulnerable and admit we like a game.

Let's be more loving because we're afraid of someone calling us edgy.

Shit, I'm on the anti-edgy side, but you guys can suck my penis.

Also, Diablo does suck pretty bad. Worth one playthrough tops.

Meh, D2 is good for what it is. There definitely hasn't been anything better in recent times as far as I know.

The original was just so much better. Diablo 2 is pretty much consoletard easy, if you aren't fucking around with obviously stupid shit, until you play through it twice just to unlock the highest difficulty. Excellent atmosphere, area designs, background story, enemies, etc though. Its sad to see Blizzard nerf the few last half deadly enemies just to appease the consoletards (like the guys with the iron maiden spell).

After reading this multiple times, I still can't figure out what you were trying to say.

Give it an hour or two, I'm sure it'll come to you. I'll give you a hint: You're the one calling us edgy.

Is ? How many years ago have you attempted to play co-op in this game for over half an hour ?

Two years ago its difficulty curve was already raped and gutted, Battle.Net "5-second killpauses" were already there, and some characters' animations were unnaturally fast on multicore systems.

If you can enjoy that sort of thing... you're probably a happier person than I am.
