I definately come back to Diablo time and time again for Andy.
Nothing like a female bondage Goro to get you addicted to a game.
That, and the fact that in D2, necromancers actually were cool. None of the crap in other games where you can only have one skeleton. I want to spam for corpses and hate paladins thank you.

I have yet to EVER play this game. The peoples on vent told me to get it but i am hesitant. I have never played it so it probably won't be any fun. I find that if you miss an awesome game when it comes out then go play it 8 years later, the magic is lost. The reason others still love this game is because they remember how much they loved it when they were younger.
Now I want to play Diablo 2 again... :( If I fail my degree I'm blaming you guys :P *hunts around for the discs*
I think people ,myself including, come back to it because you can never get the perfect setup of items you've always wanted and each time you come back to it, you feel superior to everyone else because you've done it all so many times before.
I think the main reason I go back is because the gameplay is so simple. You could easily get bored of it, but it has an addictive quality like orisinal.com games that makes you just come back for short (or long) bursts every now and then.

I haven't gone back to this game in years. If anyone would like to actually play through with me and not just do a rush through, I'd gladly go purchase a new cd to get back to the magic.
I've just waiting for a reason to come back to Diablo 2, and you have sparked my interest once again. I need a new copy though, I hope they aren't hard to find. I know all my mules and characters are gone but damn I love this game.
ok, so I think I am getting D2 now. they better still be playing by the time i get it or i am gonna be pissed on teh waste of time
@Petrie: Data FTW! If you want to roll with the Dcrew say the word and we'll give you some game times. Same goes for all of you.
Not many people know this but Diablo was actually made by Jesus for propaganda purposes. That's why it soo bad ass, and that's why I pray for Diablo 3 every night before I go to bed.
How weird. I've been trying to get my scratched disk working and just installed it this afternoon. Then came back home to find this article
I gotta say, I still prefer the Original Diablo, and that has just passed its 10th anniversary. That game is freaking tense, and there's an amazing sense of loneliness in the game you just don't get in Diablo II.
I miss the old days of hacking, using 'white' armor, doing baal runs, pwning up noobs... I think I might reinstall the game now that I think of it...
us venters are playing too!!!
i would love to join you guys on bnet, however, my cdkey on my lod case is smeared!!! i cant read 3 of the letters on it, arghhh.....

It's kind of surprising how three of the games with replay value are all made by the same company:
StarCraft, WarCraft III, Diablo.
And then...
Just my two cents ^_^

I was never a fan of Diablo games. I usually get bored in an hour or two and do something else. For me, the game I keep coming back to is Master of Orion 2.
X-com: UFO DEFENSE!!!!!
X COM!!!
Seriously! That game RULEZ. Alright, I'm gonna go play some D2. Thanks, Dtoid. I'm supposed to be beating Zelda Wii, but nooooooo....

Deus Ex probably counts as old school now. I've beaten that game at least 20 times and every time I play it I find something new.
I still play D2 because of its thing. its like WoW but a lot less time consuming. where a raid run lasts days of playing 4hours a day. you can do 5 Bloody Hill runs in an hour(with a good group of guys). thats what makes me come back to it.
This is so weird, I just started a new D2 game and all these other people are, too. It's a New Year's thing, I guess.
I never got into D2. I played the first one and enjoyed it, but just never even tried the sequel. I missed out, I know. :)
If anyone is on East Non-Ladder and wants a rush through just friend "cavapower" and ill gladly help any dtoider out
I still play D2 at times. Other games I like to replay from time to time are all the Infinity Engine ones(BG1/2, IWD1/2, PS:T), the Fallout series and Arcanum.
All about Fallout 2 up in here, I always manage to replay it till I hit another game-breaker bug, then stop for months to a year.
you guys should all check out planescape: torment - more fallout than diablo but still fucking awesome. very underrated
I actually had the inclination to reinstall D2 yesterday...since my video card is screwing up on AOE3 and NWN2, D2 might actually work. I'm always up for some demon killing in the new year.
Just about every year I re-install Diablo II and then slowly start to realize the amount of time I waste on it. There are tons of other games to play! TONS! LIKE LITERALLY THOUSANDS.
Amazing that this was just posted, as I was just telling my girlfriend a couple days ago that I had the urge to re-install Diablo 2 again.
Now that I've pointed out this post to her, she may go install it herself. I may have to pickup another copy of the game with it's expansion, 7 years later!

I think the multiplayer really ruined the whole D2 experiance in the long run. When me and my buddies got into multiplayer, it was awesome. but through time, i found myself getting rushed through 5 acts of gaming greatness, just to make a charachter...that i really cannot do anything with. I came down to who had the best items, which i never had becuase i didn't get to play it as much as everybody else (parents).
I am a D2 fan, unfortunately I am in China working and can not get an English version of D2!!!!! I have a Chinese version installed but the cd key is bogus. I'm sad and angry!!!!!!!
Whenever I go to a thrift store trying to find some good ol' classic rock vinyl, I always check the CD bins. I always see Diablo II, and Lords of Chaos at the same time. I didn't pick it up until like 6 months ago, when I didn't have an internet connection. The single player mode was entertaining enough to cure my boredom. Then I got the net back, and multiplayer just rocked so much face.
I love diablo, and I started playing no more than 4 months ago. I have begun to learn how to perfect my characters, to own the "not so good players". Makes you feel high and mighty aye?
I heard that Diablo3 WILL be coming out SOON! How did I learn this exclucive news? Google.com, duh.
I hope they have really good chars for diablo3. Also, Paladins will most likley be the weakest link when it comes out, I myself is a fan of paladins, so it will be a dissapointment. I have but only one question.. Are sorces good? They cant do anything good at first, and they cant wear any armor really.. Adding strenght to a sorc makes a sucky char!!! Help?
