3 out of 5 stars It is fun...but way too hard!   October 14, 2001

D2 has a LOT of good features. The graphics and sound effects are great. The character development is better than any which I have ever seen (I played AD&D for the last twenty years, and I think that D2 has developed a better character system). The game is divided into four acts (five with expansion). The first three acts are fun, challenging, and not too hard. The fourth and fifth acts are just rediculously difficult. I find myself running my characters around in the third act in an attempt to beef them up, only to still find them far too weak to stand up to the hordes of far-too-difficult monsters in the fourth act.

The only reason I have even SEEN the fifth act is because I have some "hacked" characters, which are ultra-powerful (one is a 93rd level paladin with about 3500 HP, and yes he has been killed on the hell difficulty level).

The difficulty goes to the extreme with the Nightmare and Hell difficulty levels, and I don't know how anyone could ever beat them. A typical monster has over 1000 hp, and does hundreds of points of damage. At the same time, the experience point demands for advancing levels becomes sky-high. While the ammount you get for each monster becomes miniscule in compairison.

All in all, a good game that needs to have the monsters toned down a bit.

Diablo 2 with expansion pack is very replayable. Very fun and easy to learn but a long time mastering and lots of ways to do things.

I wouldn't really describe it as a role playing game at all however. You don't really play a role. You have one of 7 character types that you can develop in different ways. It's more of a game of character development and exploration of tactics from my point of view but it is very fun and liked by a wide range of people.

Diablo 1 I played a while back so having it free is a nice perk I guess. It was fun but has rather simple dynamics compared to what you get in D2 and D2X.

Some might want to give D2 a try and then get the expansion. Really, you are just shorting yourself. The world is far more complete if you just start the game with a full expansion install.

Be sure to download the most recent patch by connecting to battlenet or going to their website. Version 1.10 changes the dynamics of the game dramatically by introducing "synergy skills", improved monster AI and a lot of new items. It really improves the game and makes certain character builds such as the assassin and elemental druid far more playable.
