honestly it was great game long time ago.
Now it is not. I love it. I spent a lot time in it, but we have to accept the truth - it is bad in almost every aspect comparing other titles.
It reminds me all this old men who talks that all was better 20 years ago. Games were making with love, girls were better, sun lighter, etc, etc.
In fact, we have legendary title that was very good long time ago and that is okay for now. I play it for some time every season, but in comparison you can feel the difference. And how ugly and uncomfortable it is nowadays :)
If it were as good as you describe there will be ton of new players. But they dont want to play it :)
well yes but i dont think that means the game is bad

first of all the fact that it looks "ugly and uncomfortable" doesnt mean its bad cause you are comparing it to things that are 30 years advanced in technology. by the same logic you could say that lets say an aston martin DB5 is bad because hey, a fucking chinese car can outrun it now

we cant compare stuff with far advanced technology to it, cause by that logic you could say that literally every game ever will be bad because there will be much more advanced games in the future

and second, yes games were made with love, and are now just made for the money

and girls were indeed better, now every 2nd girl has fillers and tattoos and is ugly af. man, fuck tattoos and plastic body parts and manly waistlines.. and the sun was brighter because now i cant see shit due to pollution and vapor trails. so why are there no new players? because we, the old d2 players, just had our time with it, and the goddamn zoomers have been primed into different (and objectively worse) stuff since young age

its the same reason why i listen to turbo folk even though it kills you on the inside, because i didnt have anything else when i was a kid so now im used to liking it

you know that meme helikopter song? we actually LIKE that because thats what we have been primed with since young age

my theory is, i dont think im a boomer when i say everything was better. things were actually better

and i think we are actually the only generation that has any right to say which game is bad and which isnt, because we know how a good game feels like. zoomers are plebs compared to us and their opinions on this should be ignored imo!
personally the only reason i dont even touch d2 anymore is nostalgia, it reminds me that im old af
