For my purposes, there is no multiplayer.

Is the game worth it? Are my worries about not being able to progress/find good items warranted?


Depends what your idea of good items are, you'll be able to do end game content in garbage gear, there's lots of runewords that are easy to obtain that are plenty powerful for end game content.

Ive played sp on and off throughout the years and I find it rewarding to find my own gear, even if it isn't GG gear I always find any little upgrade a real dopamine hit :p

Gonna play d2r on battlenet I pray to God the economy doesn't go down the toilet instantly, I enjoy trading except when everything is so cheap, pray that bots don't destroy the economy instantly

i mean if you wanna cheat the rest of your life and spend fg to get best items in game instead of finding it yourself i guess single player is boring...

Playing through the game & only using what you find is, imho, extremely fun & rewarding.

When you’re buying things with fg or trading, you’ll self-find a pretty good item, but just toss it because you can buy with fg or trade for a godly item. However when you’re playing SP, finding that pretty good item is awesome, because you actually use it.

Plus on SP, the map doesn’t re-roll every game, so you can use the same illuminated path every time. It makes mf’ing infinitely easier.



Agreed

I like both.

Peak addiction for me is of course PvPing at tournaments with high level gear and being part of the community. Regular TvT duels under GM rules and all that... Can't beat it.

But I have played single player on and off over the years where I haven't had internet, or a crap PC, and have of course enjoyed the game but in a different way.

Patience and good item selection is the order of the day.

Best example of patience I recall is "superdave" who I believe completed the game on p8 with an Amazon armed only with cracked/crude equipment.... On hardcore...

SP is a huge grind with little reward aside from the items you find. If you enjoy this over trading and pvp…go for it.

Sounds boring as absolute fuck to me tho


this. but if you wanna be surrounded by toxicity of grown ass men who's knees click everytime they sit down, you should pvp.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.
