You do realize you’re the probelm right? The only vote that matters is the one you make with your wallet, and you voted the subscription hikes are ok.

BonerMan,

Typical .ml moment.

Buttflapper,

I don’t subscribe anymore. I unsubscribed with the other people who left when the subscription increase was announced

I played so many games back then I can’t really say I’ve missed too much. Maybe I should have looked more into games like Jagged Alliance or X-Com but I wasn’t into turn-based games back then. But I also didn’t care much about puzzle games as a kid and now I am and that’s ok. These days I don’t care about multiplayer games anymore, which I used to love.

StarCraft. I played it, I liked it but never really invested time to get better at the game. My friends were really good and they would include me by putting me on the opposite team so I can backstab later in the match 😅

That’s actually same as me. I did play Diablo 2 tons of time. But that was just to finish the game with different characters and different skills combo.

Like one time with Amazon with bow skills, then next time with Amazon with Javelin skills. Also, since I couldn’t afford many games back then, I would just re-install it every few months or year or so, and play through it once or twice.

Though, to be completely fair, I didn’t even know you could keep playing after finishing the game. Thought it was some glitch that game restarted again 😀

So, not exactly same as you. I want to play with all the characters. At least once.

I can recommend Grim Dawn if you haven’t played it yet.

Can you “grinding for better gears” in Grim Dawn? Or the loot doesn’t matter and you should just stick to the quests?

SanitationStation,

You can definitely grind. It’s not necessary for beating the game, but it’s helpful.

But I’m just halfway through my first run, so I’m not a expert. But it’s definitely a good replacement for Diablo so far.

WoW maybe. But Runescape was good too.

I have done several D2 playthroughs, but end up stopping part way through the barbarian tundra chapter, it’s somewhat boring.

Now I listen to Diablo 2 soundtrack, when I miss the game, especially the wilderness music, it slaps!

Trail,

Wilderness and tristram. My childhood.

I haven’t actually enjoyed a Diablo game since playing the original Diablo 2 as a teenager

Blizzard make money extraction software now, not games. The lifecycle of their products starts with a complicated system of overlapping, interrelated components like events and currencies and battlepasses and sales and shops and services and items and subscriptions, and then they dress it up to look like a game.

I'd honestly love to see them try a different take on Diablo. It won't happen since Blizzard is all about live service games these days, but I'd love to see a single-player, traditional RPG version of Diablo. Imagine if Larian got the rights to make a Diablo game.

I was talking with a dude last night about what I termed a “Diablo themed Skyrim”

Imagine going through Sancturary during one of these hell uprisings in first person. Would be wild.

Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm kinda surprised that there hasn't already been a Skyrim mod that does exactly this.

Hammocks4All,

That would be awesome. It’s funny to think how somewhat similar Diablo is to Skyrim except Diablo is bird’s eye view and Skyrim is 1st person.

tissek,

Have yet to play it but Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous does have some similar themes. If you haven’t looked at it already give it a glance.

Trail,

Path of exile is like a spiritual successor to d2:lod. Can play solo only, but requires online connection. Huge amount of content and complexity.

Zahille7, (edited ) do gaming w I can't enjoy Diablo anymore.

That’s how I feel about games like Borderlands. They’re incredibly fun games with simple yet fun gameplay with decent stories and cool maps.

I can’t get into the whole min/maxing, “proper” builds, or gear loadouts. I just wanna run through a wasteland blasting dudes in the face with cool guns and abilities.

Euphorazine,

Elden ring was my first souls game and I kept away from fan sites and youtube videos as much as possible until I beat the final boss. Didn’t want to tempt finding a meta build.

If I needed help, I asked friends. It was a great experience!

BaroqueInMind, do games w Are there any recent-ish single player, complete games that are similar to Rise of Nations and would work on Mac or at least on WINE?

Dark Age of Camelot, heard it was one of the best MMOs of its time. By the time I heard of it and had a PC I could play it on, most of the player base had moved on to other games.

Any of the halo games really, they’re so fun and younger me would’ve absolutely enjoyed himself playing it back in its prime. Thing is I owned an xbox but I mostly dismissed halo as the weird orange visor green helmet guy, not knowing what I had just slept on.
