Yep, sadly.

It's only February but 2021 delivers as predicted

Have you got your posters ready for the protest? Just deal with it, princess.

Lets do a little experiment. Get a group of people together, the only requirement is that they've never played D2. Show these people a screenshot of the classes standing around the campfire, both versions of the game, and ask them to point out the differences if they can spot any with special attention to the ama and barb. Results are predictable don't you think? The differences are very obvious, the ama looks like a dude with boobs, the barb looks like he's been put on a soy diet.

Now look at the ingame footage and think for a moment. They did a fantastic job on the environment, everything looks gorgeous, attention to every detail down to some garlic hanging from a beam in Lut Gholein. It's inconceivable that the artists weren't capable of recreating the classes or that there were technical difficulties or some other bullcrap.

This has nothing to do with the devs or the artists, they're stating how passionate they are about the project and how important it is for them that the remaster stays true to the original. They multiple times state they're looking at every detail.

The only conclusion is that this has been forced upon them by the ActiBlizz management. Now ask yourself for what reason, there's only one answer really --> 2021 gender politics are being forced upon the fans of a 2 decades old video game.

If this was a new videogame I wouldn't even bother with it cuz I can't stand the garbage they produce these days, last time I bought a title was at least 5 years ago. But this is a game that I love, granddaddy of ARPGs and in my opinion ActiBlizz has no right whatsoever to try get into the players' minds with their leftist propaganda.

It's an ARPG for christ sake, the classes are all very different and special it's part of the frikkin game. The barb is huge and muscular, his specialty is his strength that's why it's the only class capable of wielding two 2-handed swords. The ama compensates for that with her bow and spear skills it's an immensely powerful character.

The classic D2 classes are oozing diversity already, both male and female classes are present and skin tones range from white to dark WTF do you want more Blizzard.

I'm playing this videogame for fun, entertainment and immersion and your forced politically correct BS takes away from that experience. If I wanted to be fed propaganda I would turn on the TV but not play a videogame thank you very much.

Typical shitpost. I don't think you've even read the OP or though longer than 2 seconds, you sensed something and spouted typical BS

I mean they made the characters faces more realistic, likely because they used real peoples faces to do the new designs.

I don't know what anything you said has to do with 'gender politics'

Think about it, Hollywood is forcing this shit in movies by not accepting movies for oscar nominations it isn't up to Hollywood standards of "diversity". There are literally rules for that, freaks are counting and ticking boxes on gender / skin color / LGBTQ and so on. What does this shit do to the quality of the movies we get these days, I haven't felt the need to go watch a movie for a very long time ffs.

This same thing is happening in the video game industry, like it or not, but it's happening. Fact

They look 20 years older than in the original game.

Do people really care what the characters look like in the character select screen?

Jesus fucking christ.
