If I remember correctly, in d2 the paladin was always black.

Yeah, but at least the black paladin in original D2 didn't look like a crackhead.

Does the Paladin say "I can't breathe" before getting ripped?

Just completed D2 with a Frenzy Barb. Extremely mobile, and great dmg output. But limited AoE, and there's 3 buffs you should keep recasting (tiresome). Overall I enjoyed the build!

Might do Paladin next. Once you get higher tier helmets you should be able to "seal him up" so that no dark pixels are leaking through, right?

My verdict after playing the open beta: I am going to wait for a D2 Resurrected sale instead.
Blizzard games go on sale?

It is on sale right now: EU price is 13 EUR.
Oh snap

That's interesting,I don't think Blizzard games have such high discounts often.I haven't been keeping up with D2 Resurrected,does it have any significant changes compared to the original apart from the graphics?Gameplay,quality of life changes,etc.What's the Kodex Kritical Konsensus,is it worth it?(at least at this price point)

Recommended you play a holy fire build until Nightmare Act IV. Will be the only time you want to put points in the resist fire aura.

I am tempted to play it but it doesn't support ultrawide and honestly I don't know if I really want to play it, odds are I'll install it and then quit playing after ten minutes

You can obtain most improvements for free with mods: widescreen support, higher resolutions, shared stash and auto gold pickup. The remastered graphics are the only significant change, they are certainly not worth 40 EUR, but might be worth 13 EUR if you want to revisit the game.

The biggest downside of the remaster is that it does not support LAN, so the only way to play it in multiplayer mode is to connect to Battle.net which implies occasional lag.

Get out of here! I just started a Frenzy Barb 3 days ago. :eek:

I just bought the remastered version a few days ago, and I'd say yes. While the character re-designs are shit, the enviorments are fricking gorgeous.
I also bought it on a steep sale it was on and I am doing Trap Assassin.

xir doesn't look like trap. more like full scale tranny.

Producers are slave drivers not game related decision makers. (if those titles mean anything)

That abomination? You sure it wasn't "I'll suck your dick, unless you <<see me>> in the game."?
In 2021 there was some controversy about Blizzard devs stealing breast milk from the company fridge. If they've still got a hankering for breast milk, it might be that this druidic woman is their milking cow supplier. She might've threatened to cut off their supply.
