Years ago, when I was but a whippersnapper, everyone else was playing this game. I was behind the curve. I picked up a used copy of Diablo the first, and was instantly hooked on that hack-and-slash experience and the sound of monsters and treasure hitting the floor of a dungeon. So of course, I had to get this game. Over the years, I have spent well over $[...] on this game, buying copies of it for my brother and friends, and to replace mine when I lose it. Surprisingly, this game still provides new challenges even though I am now in college whereas I picked it up in middle school. Tons of people play this on battle.net, and there are lots of fun mods for the game as well. At this point in my life, I go through phases of playing it. About once or twice a year, I will dig it out and play through it again for about a month.

Years ago I wasted months of my life playing this game over the LAN with my husband. In anticipation of Diablo III my husband and I re-installed Diablo II. I must admit we un-installed it immediately. The graphics are just HORRIBLE by todays standards. The highest resolution the game will play is 800x600 and the colors were awful. Blood spatter was literally showing in little red pixels. We should have known better when noticing the game will run on Windows 95. Please, Blizzard, hurry up and release III already. You've taken way too long.

After completing Diablo II I needed something else to give me a rush, I was playing round the clock, pausing only for the necessities.
The only way to get back to my life was by physically destroying the discs.
After becoming the Lord of Destruction myself, I finally rejoined the world and also got a job...

Good Expansion

I played the original diablo II for a long time before this came out. This was a great improvement to one of the best games that I have ever played. If you are a real diablo II fan get this and you can love the game even more.

This is a great game, my buddies and I play it as often as we can. The expansion was a good add on to Diablo II, I liked all of the new items, classes, etc. I think this is a game most would enjoy.

Ceilings be damned These folks have put together a dream game. Perhaps out of date by today's standards. But nonetheless, Diablo II is a winner! In fir the long haul, this game offers, and supplies gameplay! With multiple races and combat styles, Diablo II will keep gamers on their toes for milennia. Blizzard, you've scored another historic event! A game that promotes itself!! I am 60 years old. Been gaming since I was, but gaming since I was 18, yes, 18. I never thought I would leave Viet Nam alive, but here I am! Guys and Gals!! You have made a mirical!!!! Games for the Ages. Hats off to you ladies and men!! You've created a Bloody monster of a hit. Keep at it boys and girls. You've designed a winner!!

Tons of Fun!

The expansion pack to one of the best games out there!
Diablo 2 has taken many, many hours away from my life...but it was too addicting, I couldn't help it! For anyone who likes 2-D style dungeon-crawls (Bulder's Gate, Champions of Norrath, Diablo 1, etc) this is THE game for you! The replayability of this game is phenomenal. There are so many items (various types of weapons, armor, charms, amulets, rings, etc.) and monsters that every single time you play, the experience will be different! You play underground, in deserts, ice caves, forests, jungles, castles, so many places. It can take hours to beat each act (5 in all) and there are three difficulty levels to play (15 Acts total if you play all the way through). Hell is the hardest difficulty setting and VERY challenging. There are many sidequests to play, though your main goal is to kill Mephisto, Baal, and Diablo.
The characters are more fun than any dungeon crawl type came I have ever played because each class has its own sepcific skills, spells, and auras (30 for each of the 7 classes) that it can learn. Because of that, even one class can have several different styles of character by the end of the game. The expansion adds the sixth and seventh character classes.
Many people still play this game online, though I have only ever played it offline, single player. I have talked with peopl who play it online, and if you have a fast connection (I only have dial-up) they say it is a lot of fun.
So if you want to go back to the classic days before everything was in 3-D, and on massive online servers, Diablo 2 with or with out the expansion (which adds the fifth act to each level of the game), is a fun and challenging way to whittle away hours of your life on the computer!

This game is very entertaining and lots of fun to play. It is well worth
the money. It is a challenging game, with hours of stimulation. I am glad I purchased it. The whole family loves it. I let a lot of people I know, about this game and told them to purchase it!

The game is fun, but with blizzard's constant eye over World of Warcraft, Diablo II hasn't been paid attention to in years. :(
