As you can tell by my name, I am really into games. I bought the original D2 last year and started with expansion last Christmas. Ever since I got D2 LOD, I have really been into it and like I said, can't stop playing it. I was really into single player until I beat nearly every quest and every act(I never really did get around to killing Baal at the end of Act 5). I believe one of the great features of the game would have to be battle.net. I applaud blizzard for all the work it has put into it's multiplayer gaming service and I find it outranks many other multiplayer services by far. However, I can understand how those of you subject to lag feel. I don't succumb to lag much due to my excellent system. But anyway, enough about me. Normally, I would have given this game a 5 star review were it not for some unfortunate circumstances. Besides lag, B.net has it's fair share of hackers and scammers abroad. Fortunately, I haven't been hacked yet, but a friend of mine was twice and lost some precious items. I must also admit I was disappointed in the 2 new char classes. In specific, I thought druids' elemental would be much more powerful and the same with the assassins' traps. I have also found myself in an unfortunate position where I'm beginning to feel bored with this game. By now, I have in my possession many powerful unique and set items as well as powerful characters. I feel I am getting to that stage where I feel there is no more point to this game. But, enough with the downside. Before this stage, I felt a great exhilaration while playing this game as I have learned to love it. In conclusion, I say you should really go out and buy this game. It is worth the money. As many have mentioned, this game is extremely addictive and will keep you stuck to your computer for a vast amount of time... I feel I should also draw your attention to the fact that some people on B.net so crazy about this game may wish to buy items/characters and pay you some real cash for what you have to offer... Get into this game. You'll love it.
Single player mode is great; muliplayer has problems.

Ah, chapter V of the Diablo II world is finally played out with the expansion pack. Two new characters are added, items are changed and storeage space is increased -- but you'll need that once you win and start up nightmare or hell level. We can play it between our computers at home with with friends on-line but when we do the graphics get a little jumpy. The previous problems with assistants getting stuck in a pacing pattern continue.
Lots of fun! Spice, variety, magical and rare items! YAY!

I love Diablo II. I really do. But, you know, I get bored with the actual activity of playing because it involves a great deal of clicking a mouse pointer on a little animated sprite. But the music, scenery, special effects, ambience, and the character development parts of the game are totally cool -- and that's what this expansion does. It gives you more character types to play with, more/different items, and so on. It puts spice and variety back into the game, just when you thought you'd put it back on the shelf and play Dungeon Siege instead. I highly recommend this expansion. It's definitely worth the money!
A REAL addition

This was abbosutly amazing and i loved it. I could have more fun than with diablo 2 because you get much better items and assisians are so fun. you can do martial arts with them too. I love this game.
More room? Think again...

First of all, if you're buying this expansion pack simply because you're tired of your bank space being all full and "this will solve it." Well, I'm sorry to say that the increased inventory space here just means you'll keep everything you did before and more! Without adding any spoilers here, they've added enough stuff that you will end up just collecting a whole-lot-more-junk and in a way you will have even *less* space than you did before... kind of ironic, if you ask me.
Also, one of the somewhat "annoying" pieces of this pack, however, if you play Battle.Net - you have to "convert" any regular characters you have in the game to "Expansion Pack" characters in order to be able to use the Expansion Pack with them and you WILL NOT be able to move them pack and play them with people who do not own the expansion pack. This means that if you have friends on Battle.Net that don't own the Expansion Pack, you will NOT be able to use your converted characters in games that you play with them.
Diablo 2 is the best by craig

This game is literally the best. This game has it all, the game play, the graphics, and the characters. I suggest if you get this game start of with necromancer or the druid. So you can build a large army of skeletons with necromancer or turn into beasts with druid. The game is aneed to get game.

This is one of the best games I have ever owned. In my opinion its the best computer game out there. The original Diablo 2 was great and the expansion makes the game MUCH better. I had several hours after hours of fun only on single player but in multiplayer the fun never ends. The new things about the Expansion are all the new items(for example the new weapons on this game are unimaginable compared to the first game) there are several new unique items and now the items are basically endless.
There is the new act which is great and several new monsters in the act. the stash is twice as big and the new druid and assassin are awesome. If you own Diablo 2 buy this game. If you care at all about role-playing games, buy this game.
A very sweet add-on for a great game!!!

This was too cool. I love having new quests to this epic game of riding evil from a world. Sinlge player is well done, 1.0, wasnt that buggy. The hefty system requirments is the only reason why it lost one star. I highly recommend you have at 3d video card, a lot of ram, and a fast Intel chip set! Battle Net makes this game even more fun.
