This thread will probably go on for sometime.
We saw it happen with D3 and D4 appears hardly any different. Within 5 years the majority of the D4 player base will go back to D2R.
D2R is near perfect and with continued updates it will remain the champion of the series.
Prove me wrong.
Its year 2023.
It is not 1997 or 2000 and this game will not be played 23 years like Diablo 2 was..
This time is gone and World Changed.
Diablo2 was the only one and will stay forever.
Why do you think that in 2030 there will be Mouse+Keyboard games and such games like d2r played?
There will be completely next gen gaming systems and games.
Something like d2r will be dead quicker than d4 or any like game..
D2r life is given for next ~2-5 years till hype of 30 years old players of original d2 will be gone and next gen kids will play Next Gen Gaming systems.
The main bad thing on D2r is,
that there is not even Physical Disc with Case or Box copy..its just blizzards digital content..
So you cant have it in your Bookshelf with the rest of Diablo games collection as memory since 1997 D1 CDs....
Diablo IV has atleast physical Disc for collection,
its next Diablo game for collection and not only digital game/content of blizzard like D2r clone/update of D2Lod.
And it will brings new Story, New Game to play so ofcourse
everyone will play it to acomplish another diablo game done.
Time of 20+years trading hoarding pixels and Boting is gone thats why blizzard is doing what is doing since D3...
Every year is technology moving and moving, especially gaming.
2043 and D2r isnt real...even in 2030..same with DIV probably..
2000-2023 D2 became real and will stay forever
