Diablo 2

When we ask a question in the headline of a post, we're expected to answer it — so when we ask Should you play Diablo 2: Resurrected on console or PC? you'd be forgiven for being frustrated with answers like yes or it depends or whichever, it really doesn't matter.

The beta is coming, the beta is coming!

There is no Cow Level.

Sometimes it's the chance to get to play a game that I haven't played in a while with updated graphics that brings me to a remastered game.

Most launches from Blizzard get a lot of lead time, but not so with the remaster of the much-beloved Diablo 2.

There's a lot of excitement for the forthcoming Diablo 2: Resurrected, a complete remaster of the classic game for PCs and consoles by Vicarious Visions.

If I were making my dream Diablo game, I know it would bring back the original trio of classes from the original Diablo and update them for a modern audience -- since Diablo 4 has both the Rogue and the Sorceress, it essentially has two of the three, although in the original game it was the Sorcerer, the Sorceress having been added in D2.

Diablo 3 is one of the best games ever made.

If you were born after 2000, first off, congratulations on making me feel like a shriveled animated corpse driven from its tomb, but also, congratulations on being younger than Diablo 2. The premier game in ARPGs was released in 2000, and we've seen a whole Diablo game released since then, 2012's Diablo 3.

After spending several hours playing Diablo 2: Resurrected on a Barbarian and an Amazon, I can report that my first impression of the game is that it is indeed Diablo 2, just prettier.
