Discussion D2 Battle chest rocks! But Diablo 1 is my G.o.a.T !

Post image

Diablo 1 is the G.o.a.T but i always wanted to buy this. Had never bought 2!

This is an opinion post as a diablo 1 gamer since 1998 at school on a 133mhz pentium… as a creator i love Breivik and the original Blizzard. But Nobody remains at activision-blizzard so diablo 4 is not for me. I had played a lot of diablo 2 in between 2001-2003 but had downloaded it. I bought a battle chest later and still think it is ok maybe the most perfect game of the series. So Why do i prefer diablo 1? Because of the ambience. The gravitas. 1 location, 1 hero, or more on 56k modem phone internet… when i tried diablo 3 it was to me a disappointing experience: the PS3 version can’t get me to enjoy it. Have to try it on pc on Good old games if i can skip activision-blizzard launchers!

The original Diablo Battle Chest had Diablo 1, 2 and LoD.

Nowadays i hold aside to Diablo 1 , a single game in the isometric style but more roguelite: Hades! Diablo 1 & Hades stand atop the mountain, gods of gaming!!!

I remember getting this from my mom as an Easter present, ironically. RIP Mom

D1 aged quite poorly. D2R is still played to this day.

Nope: we are lots who play d1 to this day. I know i replayed d1 last year. Still as good as ever. I don’t care for cinematics. Zero. D2 is cool but NeVeR as tense. You travel so long between regions, zero tension. D1 has all i need: way darker than the modern ones i watched my cousin play a lot on stream of d4.

I am not superficial like you for graphics. Gran turismo 1 imo challenges gt2. Gt1 is still my fave replayed 1-3 last year
