pjquinones747: Diablo 2: Resurrected

pjquinones747 04.29.22	GAMER NERDS? Come on, Susie.
budgie 04.29.22	all my buds are playing it but i dont really know that i can spend 40 buckers on a game rn the huge balance patch looked real interesting though. hybrid zons and caster druids
pjquinones747 04.29.22	I just hopped back in so I hadn't taken notice of any patches! I'm just happy to have a re-skin that keeps the integral parts of the game the same.
budgie 04.29.22	oh shit dude look up the balance patch that was published maybe last week. they just buffed almost everything across the board. crazy. the old meta of blizz sorc and hammerdin is fully overturned, maybe, we'll have to see how it plays out i guess.
pjquinones747 04.29.22	Damn, they enacted the Ladder again as of YESTERDAY and i started my sorcerer literal days beforehand! Oh well lol.
budgie 04.29.22	lmao i figured the timing of this thread was about the ladder reset. rip
pjquinones747 04.29.22	I'm so sick of act 1 i will not remake another sorcerer to make it onto the ladder. i'll save it for my amazon.
pizzamachine 04.29.22	I love that game but it’s so expensive wtf
Trebor. 04.29.22	I'd rather die than play something not on Steam
pjquinones747 04.29.22	I like Steam but to be fair PC Game Pass through Xbox provides a large chunk of the games that constantly go on sale through Steam and Steam also will never acquire the Activision Blizzard catalog either so I will forever be torn between gaming platforms.
pjquinones747 04.29.22	@pizza it definitely wasn't worth $40 as a remake but I've also put more hours into the Diablo franchise than any other game so I was bound to make this purchase
budgie 04.29.22	i mean $12 movie ticket to see a 90 minute film $40 for a game that i prob over the past 22 years have gotten a billion hours out of def worth it but bleh im too old to spend money on games
pizzamachine 04.29.22	If a game’s over $25 I don’t buy it I wait until it’s not
pjquinones747 04.29.22	Well what you're paying for is pretty much just a reskin and an active development team for new patches so I would've sold it at $25 or $30 but i'm not the multimillion dollar company so who cares what I think.
budgie 04.29.22	im not looking at it like id be paying for their labor or effort but their maintaining & supporting the servers so i could continue to play d2 with my buds you know. reskin i couldnt give a fook abt. ~$25 in 1999 is $40 in 2022 anyway BUT im still probably not going to get it haha.
pjquinones747 04.29.22	RIP my puny paper-mache ice sorc
Egarran 04.29.22	Sorry, but I regret having bought this. I've played it once and didn't feel it. Which is tragic.
pjquinones747 04.29.22	I don't blame you. Once I realized it was just a reskin and an active development team for new patches I was pretty bummed but I still enjoy the gameplay enough to keep at it.
Egarran 04.29.22	I was going to play with my in-laws so I made a paladin to buff and be nice. That may have been a mistake. I'm just a lightning sorceress/necro kind of guy.
budgie 04.29.22	you have it egar??????? eeeeeeeeeeee
pjquinones747 04.29.22	Zeal Pally has been my main since the olden days. Wanna link up sometime Egarran?
Egarran 04.29.22	I do Budgie. Really PJ? Nice. I can't get into that pally gameplay. Linking up would be nice but something special has to happen before I'm playing for serious. But like maybe I break a leg or something.
pjquinones747 04.29.22	LOL alright fair. I am procrastinating on finishing Elden Ring cuz the last boss is an absolute bastard so that's what has me playing D2:R again.
budgie 04.29.22	shit now i am extra tempted to get it. but might be laggy for me to play in EU realm? idk
pjquinones747 04.29.22	I'm unsure how the EU servers are! But let me be the devil on your shoulder to say DO IT.
InFiction 04.29.22	Would you say it's worth getting for someone who didn't play the original? I played Diablo 3 a while back and wasn't really feeling it.
budgie 04.29.22	its the greatest game of all time diablo 3 is garbage
