I bought Diablo II when it first came out for the Mac, and it occupied most of my free time for about three months. However, once you have 5 realm chars of all the classes to Chaos Sanctuary on Hell difficulty repeatedly, it gets boring. If you are looking for a great game to occupy yourself with for a while, get D2, but if you want a game that will last you quite some time, dont bother.

best computer game

This game is a very entriuging game. I know this 4 experience. This game contains little to no violence, unlike the box says. The only kind of "gore" the game has is maybe a corpse after u defeat an enemy, but that goes away farely quickly. TRUST ME, it is not violent in any way. Think of it as self defense. While you adventure in the game things attack you not nise-nersa. So allow your kids or whoever to have a good time and understand that games like this are very unviolent and totally over rated in the violence scale.

what a waste of 35 dollars

wow. i bought this game hoping that blizzard had stopped going half way on their games( which is clearly evident in games like, starcraft, warcraft, diablo)well i bought this game, and it was stupid. this is what i affectionately call a "clicker" game. you know, i left click on you,i hit you, i right clic on you, i do a magic thing. boring. they try to make it interesting with the whole unique character thing, but the fact that it'll always be the same thing, every time you play it, doesn't really give you much re-play value. also a killer is the mandatory quests,you must complete every quest in order to move on in the already dull plot. if you really want a real RPG, buy Baldur's Gate, it's cheaper, and you get to completely make your character, and there's a totally non-linear plot. do waht you want, or don't, but be prepared to suffer the consequences. Baldur's Gate puts YOU the gamer in control, while diablo 2, you are just kinda along for the ride. diablo 2 is deffinitely a game for those simple-minded gamers, who don't really like the whole variable plot thing,the ones that don't like having a choice where to go or what to do when they want to, the ones who just want to click their way to victory. this game gets one star, which is many , many more than it deserves

I take it back.

It IS point and click! Yeah, the greatest RPG of all time! It certainly makes you gain weight faster than any other RPG. All my friends have been fattened and dumbed by this marvel in brainwashing. They are all now one with the chair that they sit in. Greatest RPG? Not even close. Those who say it is are probably physically dependant upon it by now. I observe people play with their eyes two inches from the monitor and their mouths slack with saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths. The only thing that moves is the hand, making quick, convulsive movements. I say that even if it does expand your brain (Ha, ha), the other negative effects far outweigh the good.

Diablo 2 on the Macintosh is the Best Video Game Ever

There was once a time when Donkey Kong on the Nintendo Entertainment System was the best video game ever, which lasted until Mortal Kombat on the Sega Genesis was released. There are many things that make Diablo 2 even better than either of these two games, but I'll cut to the chase and give you the number one reason; summon resistance. Summon resistance is a spell that allows the necromancer to raise the magical tolerance of the skeletons and golems he has created. Because some of you must certainly have a shorter attention span than myself, I must in good concience insert a warning here that it will quite likely take you 40 hours to raise your necromancer to level 30; the minimum level for using summon resistance. DON'T GIVE UP! There are several things that will tide you over and remind you of your steady progress towards the all-important goal of protecting your crew with magical resistances, and they are: 3 five minute videos in between acts, and the ability to transform 6 small potions into a rejuvination potion. Do not forget this. In games like Donkey Kong, and Mortal Kombat, there is no way to protect your minions from attacks of ice, fire, and lightning. As I have not myself gotten to level 30, I am uncertain as to whether the skill will protect from poison. When you get poisened in Diablo 2, your character, and your life ball will turn green. Green potions however, do NOT cure poison. Another great potion is the plus 20 to live potion that you will recieve in act 3. Act 3 takes place in a scenic forest with beautiful trees, and gental rain. DO NOT LET THIS SIDETRACK YOU! YOU MUST KEEP WORKING TOWARDS SUMMON RESISTANCE. Word is bond.

hear me, bi-pedal primates of earth!

lo! i stand before you to tell of my exploits! once, not so very long ago, i had a vision. more than a simple thought, no! an epiphany! you see, the dinosaurs - you know, those big lizards? to continue, the dinosaurs are in great peril! for you see, the coming of our Lord and Savior is coming soon; a little thing called the apocalypse, ragnarok, doomsday - you dig me? the dinosaurs, not having heard of the wonder of christianity, are in great peril of burning in hell forever. i, for one, mean to do something about it. so i, being the brilliant mammal i am, built a time machine and have completely spread the dogma of christianity to those extinct thunder lizards. "did they accept the inherent vacuous symbolism and absurd bronze-age superstition", you ask? of course! their minds, walnut sized in some cases, is not their strong point. but so what? they'd still eat you not realizing that you are their intellectual superior.

so in closing:

dinosaurs converted to christianity - good.

diablo 2 - not good.

have a lovely day

Oh please...

Come on! Diablo isn't much. It's just kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, rescue guy or girl who tells you to kill more, than kill again. And they call this an RPG? Folks, RPGs are supposed to have an intresting plot and variety. This is just killing demons for several hours. Sorry, but it gets an F from me.

A Wonderful Game Ruined by the Save Function

I enjoyed the original Diablo greatly. I could not wait for the release of the sequel. I preordered it and waited for it to arrive. The weapons and characters were great. I started my first game and went to save it and was shocked. I could not save unless I began the game again. The save option degraded it to an old Sega Genesis game. The entire point of a computer game, in my opinion, is to save and explore. With the saving format, I lost vauble time, gold, and weapons. If you want to spend your day other places besides your computer DO NOT!!!!!! get Diablo 2.
