Maybe their PC is too weak


This is my reason..I have a lvl 96 sorc on d2R but I need to use it in the old graphics and it takes about 3 minutes to load an act change, 2 minutes to load a wp change in same act and about 1 minute to load a tp.

And I have a think pad with an I5 8th gen in it.

I can't see me buying a new computer for the one game I play. So I just play D2 still.

I do like a few of the features from d2R. Like the join any difficulty game or the right click to sell. Also the shared stash is awesome as is the totals screen (where it shows the total of all your cb/mf/ias/fhr/fcr and so on)

Its about, 30-40 years old people were teenagers, 13-15 years old at 2000s when started Diablo2 mania.

So this game is in theyre lives for 23 years. They will play it probably till servers will be running and when servers will be down they will play it singleplay offline for nostalgy fun.
Its the game of theyre lives. :)



This is 100% me lol. I'm 37 and this is the only game I play still (well sometimes pokemon yellow on my phone using a gbc emulator)

d2r is trash, new updates are trash, graphics are trash. There are a lot more. For me D2R is only to divide and weaken d2 community.

Graphics are trash? That's a fun take

It seems to me that anyone who says d2r pvp is bad is probably just bad at it tbh. Bad = can't use my bugged items, which I'm bad without, so game is bad

its the mechanics thats bad lol, theres no fhr so anyone can mindlessly tele or spam after they are stunned immuned, where as before youd have to wsg to break fhr lock which required more than hold click. Im sure most that say it bad still beat you tho.
