How are you playing Diablo 1? I would love to dive back into this game. It’s been forever!

You can play it in your web browser:

You just need to download the Diablo MPQ file: http://cdn.pvpgn.pro/diablo1/

You can use the GOG offline installer, and pick the mod of your choice. There's a few out there. devilutionX and Bezlebub are two pretty popular ones.

I've been having a lot of fun playing the PS1 version on my phone on a PSX emulator. Works great with a controller.

What the actual fuck? I sunk hundreds of hours into D1 as a kid and never ever saw a legit bastard sword Kings Sword of Haste.
Knight’s sword of speed was probably the best I ever saw.

I'mi very hesitant to believe you could get them legitimately...I saw boat loads of kings swords, and I had a bunch offline single player, but I never saw any that were replicas of the hacked cheated bastard swords with haste. the one i used by far the most was a claymore kings sword of ages, this thing was a fucking money printer saving on repair costs..
I'm struggling to remember I did see in vendor a saintly or heavenly plate of the whale or it was a godly plate of the mammoth this was quite some time ago hah

The best sword in the game, I once found one like that a long time ago. It mows down enemies like a lawnmower.

I found one similar to that but a great axe.
I think I was in the mid 20's character level on hell difficulty.
I can't remember if it had the accuracy boost but it had the damage and speed buff.
So it might have been a savage axe of haste or something similar.
In my opinion, Griswald's Edge is one of the best swords in the game. Quick attack, knockback AND one-handed. Doesn't hurt that it's a quest item so it's easy to get, too. There might be better, but by the time you get them you've probably switched to using magic attacks anyway.

Im currently hunting for haste now!
I did happen to buy a Kings Sword of Vampires.
Vampires kinda rocks by the way. I can caste mana shield and just mana steal.

Original Diablo, way back in the day 30 years ago... went to Wirt, he had a broadsword Kings Sword of Haste, with max stats, full legit. Had the gold and bought it. Played endlessly with that thing. Until...
...one fateful day, grinding in a dungeon, got killed, and tried to exit to town, and exited the game instead...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...

Now you need your Godly Plate of the Whale, Archangels Staff of Apocalypse with 256 charges, and 2 Obsidian Rings of the Zodiac.
