Ok, being an RPG fan, I was pretty much dissapointed with the first release of Diablo. It offered very little in the ways of options that most of us RPG'ers are used to handling around, but with the second release, it's a totally different story. The whole game had an overhaul, where to get rid of it I had to move my home PC to the office to avoid playing it. It is the worse addiction I have had in my life. I am now under therapy. Thank you.

This game is very addictive I have spent almost 8 months trying to beat it but have failed. I really recommend this game to anyone. One problem i have is I can't install the expansion set. I get a message Insert Play disc when the play disc is already inside.

Amazing

Diablo and Diablo II are one of the best games in the world. I played Diablo II when it was first released. For 1 month I was stuck to my monitor playing Diablo 24 hours per day but its problem is:

Its entertaining at first only then you will get bored from it ... I recommend you play it one month per year ... but I assure you will get stuck to your monitor this month.

Your finger will hurt you after this month from that horrible mouse clicking you did

At last Star Craft is the best game blizzard did

A Masterpiece!

Simply put, this is one of the best RPG's ever made, anywhere.
It doesn't take much power to run. The graphics are storybook come alive. The sound is beautiful. The enemies are diverse, the plot spectaculier. The variety of items and rare weapons is very satisfying. And the replay value is high! You'll play it in terms of months not days. Simply put, buy it.

Hackers ruined these games online

Great game, Great expansion. But for a short period of time, hackers duped the crap out of an item which cause me to stop playing for a while. The orginal Diablo is destroyed online but still fun to play single player.

Addictive

I gave this to my husband for Christmas last year, and he didn't surface from this game for about two weeks. It's intricate, imaginative, even fun to watch. The only thing I would change, if I were the creator of the game, would be to make winning more exciting, make the landscapes become more beautiful, make the townspeople throw a party - something! Overall, it's pretty brilliant and very absorbing, and stands up well to repeated play over time.

I WOULD GIVE THIS 999but i cant

THIS IS BY FAR THE B E S T GAME EVER!!!Ive played A LOT og games but this tops everything. I myself have played hours at which r very very unhealthy srry to say. The interaction with other people online or the nice play of offline is one of the 999 (or something like that) reasons this is the best game ever.
U can start with either one of these charictors and can switch without deleting them unless ur playing on battlenet u can have up to like 9 on battlenet or somthing ike that. U can pick bewteen a Sorcerous-Power ful ice fire and lightning spells at her disposel if u use her right she becomes one of the best charictors of the game, Necromancer-Summons skeletons and golems to help him defeat his enemys he also uses curses and poisen-bone spells to weaken and desroy his enemies,paladin-sword master he is very good with combat skills and defencive and offencive aures, Barbarian-This awsome charictor can hold 2 wepons in his hands the only cahrictor that can do this besides assissns who can use to claws he can master the arts of wepns and more, assissin-Traps martial-arts are her best abilitys with powerful finishing moves and traps that will send eniems against each other make the assassin one of the best charicors in the game, Druid- this shapeshifting charictor has mastered the art of shapeshifting summoning vines and bears and wolfes he can also call hurricanses and volcanoes to stop his foes,Amazon- she can use either javolins or bows/crossbows. she can use magical arrows or thunder javilns to destroy her eneime that is all i have to say there maby some more i left out srry if i did.

One of the few and proud, "Best games". Ever.

Maybe I haven't experienced other RPGs, and that is the reason this one, my first RPG experience, is so relished. Maybe it is the epic proportions of the game, with massive battles raging across a unique fantasy planet. Maybe it's the appeal of a classic, good vs evil quest, and the journey that you make in the game to become a hero.

I'm not quite sure what it is, but this game is a MUST OWN.

If you haven't played this thing, and are just now reading this review, I pity you. You are really missing out on a gem! This game, I could review it for hours, but just let me say pick it up NOW. Get the battlechest, like I did, it is by far a superb deal. Even when it was $50 early on, it was a steal. And trust me, you'll get wrapped up in it too.

Sure, the story is dark, and a little creepy if you get too into the background story itself. I mean, it is called Diablo, and that right there might make some hesitate. But this isn't some dark and dank dungeon game, (at leaste Diablo 2 and the Expansion - the first Diablo was not a good game IMO) , but an epic struggle of good conquering evil. That's how I see it. And if you look at it that way, it's great.

This game has so much, it's scary. The graphics are the only downfall, but the fact that it is an areal view helps set it apart from its era and it really is pretty timeless. I'd enjoy playing it today, but my computer's pretty bogged down and the final levels start getting choppy. Put it on a system better than mine (I have a system running Windows 98) and you'd be in gaming bliss. So don't hesitate if you're thinking it's "outdated". This game is as timeless as Solitare.

As for quick highlights of the best parts of the game, all I can say is this thing is massive. Massive on quests, on land area, on character developement, and weapons...but it's all fairly easy to get into. Trust me, you get the basics down early on, and you're whipping out terms like "Druid" and "Tomes" and "Mana Recharge Shrines" just as you would make comments about your Uncle Fred, a travel map, or multivitamins. It's all really absorbing. I got into it, and I'm about as mindless for gaming knowledge as they come. My brother even got into it, once I finally persuaded him to play. This game will have you hooked.

My only complaints: 1. Graphics are slightly fuzzy, but still highly acceptable even in 2005
2. Size of game (Windows 98 users, you may want to put it on a newer system. By the time you get to the end of the game, things may get choppy). This, however, shouldn't cause problems for anyone today, as most own newer and better systems.
3. Time consumption. This game will have you hooked, yes, HOOKED. And on a bogged down, dated computer, you spend more time!
4. Saving. Waypoints are the only way to save, making you play longer than you want at times (or your previous progress means nothing). This is the biggest flaw, and takes away that much more of your free time!
5. Act III. Anyone who plays it knows: this is the puberty level of the game. It's just one of those points you gotta get through, but don't really love to look back on. This is the worst part of the game, navigating those jungles...ugh.

Hopefully my rambling is decipherable enough to help those interested in this slightly aged but timeless classic. My complaints above are only minor, and to list all the benefits here would not only prove how much they outweigh the bad but also take up waay too much space! So, with that, I'll just say quit reading these reviews NOW and BUY THE GAME!

Peace out, courtesy of Who from Home.

PS - rated Mature. Violence, dark story. 'Nuff said.

Great game for lower end machines

Diablo II is a great game. The expansion pack makes it even more fun. If your like me and haven't kept up with the latest games and hardware you will enjoy this hack and slash adventure.

All my hardcore gamer friends make fun of me for playing such an old game, but my entire system costs less than the graphics card they need for the latest games.
