I’m gonna play the ladder for a couple weeks when it resets in September but am gonna go back to D4 right away for S2

I’ve enjoyed D4 a lot, hoping for good improvements in S2 and beyond

Where do I find the most players for trade and pvp? Project d2? Joined the discord looked kind of alive?


They don’t allow d2jsp trading you get banned.
They have trading on their own site

Same here, got back after reaching 91lvl in D4. There's literally nothing to do there anymore, even nothing to grind for. Got all the class uniques I was interested to experiment with, fully respec'd few times.

Once you learn about "damage buckets" and core mechanics it becomes really stupid regardless of the class you play – just bump global multipliers, vuln and crit.


How did you grind all the way to 91 dude. Felt like upgrades were few and far between after 60. Didn't make it much longer after that

50-70 was totally about Paragon boards and pushing for higher dungeons. 70-80 was the most boring part of the game, which really killed it for me.

After reaching level 51 and having learnt about the mechanics of paragon, I soon lose interest in d4
I only play d4 because of my real life friends

Anyway, it’s all about business. If blizzard keeps investing more in D2R by inventing more uniques, runewords, or endgame events, they’ll make much less money than making a new game.

If there was a organized ranked pvp system in D2R, that would be dope.

lol D4 way overhyped, so many left D2R for it but realized D2R is the true sanctuary experience.

Or blizzard completely blew it again for fan base!! But they made boat load profit back :o


I wonder about that....they advertised the hell out of this turd and prolly spent just as much for every critic to rate it a 9.

D4 wasn't so bad--but I only have a couple lvl 100 characters on it. Lvl 99-100 in D4 took only like 2 hours though, whereas in d2r, it took me two weeks to get from 98-99 lol.

Uber lilith is boring, whereas the Uber farming in d2r is more fun and rewarding.

It just sucks you are so limited in trading in D4--which is a big factor that keeps d2r alive tbh (and d2jsp).

Can't wait for the reset! There's something in D2R that other Diablo games can't match---the reset ladder rush and trying to go to hell baal and fnding that ber rune or shako or griffons--and maybe finding it (or even a vipermagi) and the joy and satisfaction from your hard work of grinding /w rng luck is something you can't really describe in words.
