Diablo II: LoD

[Child of The Sea God]

does anyone play this game it's a action multiplayer RPG?
recently it has been getting worser though because of the hacks and items being deleted
the players online are usually a******* too

I used to play the game on occasion but considering that it has gotten pretty well redundant compared to all of the other games out there it lacks the quality and ever changing gameplay of other games. Rather than developing another expansion for it with more gameplay and different things for players to do and new things to discover. You know like some more interesting side quests than what they have there which are more like quests just to push the storyline along or get a few items which by the second go round of the story or even the third is meningless anyway and worthless. In the end this game is lacking in comparison to some of the newer and heck in hindsight even some of the older games where more work was put into it. It is sad really that Blizzard has not taken the effort to do more with this game or at the very least make a sequel to it with improvement which if they have been making one is way way way overdue.

I was incredibly addicted to this game last summer, playing until 7 in the morning sometimes. I still have 3 accounts active from last August that I just don't have the willpower to let expire, heh. I don't know if I'll ever play it again, because like you said it's full of hackers and there is no "community" feel to it. It's mostly level 1 players begging to be "rushed" and level 90 players dueling it out with uber-gear (hacked or otherwise).

I also started trying out different character builds that were completely unique. Like my leap attack barbarian, or poison crossbow assassin, or melee necromancer. :D I got a lot of funny looks with my tank-sorceress, running around in complete battle gear wielding a Lightsabre. They couldn't grasp the idea that I was just having fun, trying to see if I can beat the game without a cookie-cutter character. *shrug* oh well.

Also, I still take pride in knowing that I completed each character's main set (The Immortal King, Trang-Oul's, Natalya's, etc) WITHOUT cheating. I can't say much for 90% of the D2 community though.

It is nice when you find someone in that game that is legit and is just looking to quest with ya. People like that are rare nowadays though...

Oh, yeah. Diablo II:LOD sure was addictive. It doesn't matter how many times i've played it. If i come back to it, i just want to try some more.

But....it's been around for so very long. I've nrealy exercised all the characters and had a taste of what they do. Granted, i did not try all the types of the characters. I have been a Hammerdin (for those who don't know, a Paladin specializing with the Blessed Hammer), an Avenger (Paladin specializing with the super-duper Vengeance...too bad it's useless against Diablo himself), the Elementalist (Druid using only Elemental Magic. Go Hurricane! So easy!), the Martial Artist (Assassin using Martial Arts), the Ice/Lightning Sorceress (self-explanatory), summoner Necromancer (self explanatory) and the Leaping Barbarian (Leap Attack). But i haven't tried others.

I don't bother going further in the Hell/Nightmare levels. The only reason to go there would best be for the secret Cow Level. Anyone playing Diablo II, Expansion or no, must try the Cow Level! But if you're doing the game again afterwards, why bother?

But i sure do have fun playing classics. DII:LOD is truly one of them. *sigh*, time to get Sonic...
