Now that Starcraft 1, Warcraft Orcs & Humans & Warcraft 2 have all been remastered. Are there any chances we might get a Diablo remaster?
That is honestly what I have been wanting to play for years.

I would bet the odds of them not remastering the original Diablo are fairly low at this point. Why remaster all of the classics except the original Diablo?
I’d buy it.
I think it’d be neat if it had an optional first person mode.

The coding of the original diablo might elude their new generation “talent” so it might not be possible for them

Give the devs/coders enough time (and coffee), they can make it happen.
My guess is they’d do something very similar to what they did with D2:R… A graphics overlay on top of the original game. They could probably reuse the D2:R graphics overlay engine.

I am having a blast playing the new Remastered Warcrafts and I never thought I would play Warcraft 2 Online with people again - Such an absolute blast.
At the same time, I really wish for a Diablo 1 Remaster. I could easily sink thousands of hours into it as it is my favorite game of all time.

Diablo 1 and Hellfire’s mechanisms have been extensively detailed through documents like Jarulf’s Guide, and a significant amount of modders know the inner workings well enough that it’s not absurd to see the devs get the info they need to remake the game from scratch or alter it to do what they need to.
This doesn’t mean that they are going to do the remaster, just that it’s unlikely that it’s a matter of being capable of doing it.

There are plenty of Diablo 1 mods that already “remaster” the game, stop simping for blizzard and throwing money on nostalgia.

Said the one who purchased D2:R. Oh the irony.

It’s either that, or Lost Vikings.
D1 is still my favorite game, but D2 gets more love from me. Both are like top 3 games for me.
Anyways, I’d 100% buy a D1 remaster, and I would LOVE to see the D1 cinematics done up like they did with D2:R. How crazy would that be?

I guess it’s possible just like 2.0 for D2R. Let’s dream again for currency tab, removing Sunder charms and Mosaic, immunities rework, melee big rebalance, teleport nerf.
D1 remaster, yes please!

Are you sure you want that? These things enabled so many builds to actually be playable in hell difficulty.
Is there something you’d replace them with?
Yes to everything else though.

No fkn synergies and 1.09 monster health numbers.
I would honestly love to try this. I really dislike how synergies made all of the chance to cast effects, and items with charges worthless.
The only CtC effects that are good now, are spells without damage synergies like fade, frozen armor and curses.
Does anyone know where I can find data on monster health values pre-1.10??
I also mentioned reworking immunities or even removing them along with nerfing builds damage (maybe by removing synergies as others mention) so game doesn’t get too easy.
Imo Sunder Charms only enabled Fire builds but there are better ways for that. For example Fire Druid could get a buff of physical damage of these skills.
I don’t like how Sunder Charms are pretty much only endgame option and doesn’t help with early play at all (besides op combo of Blizzard+Cold Mastery+Cold Sunder Charm). Also how Blizz ignored all feedback on forum when everyone here had better ideas for immunities than this.

I sometimes wonder how the game would be, if synergies were scrapped, monster health buff was scrapped, but we kept all of the other changes that have been made. If your main attack spell only costs 20 points… what do you do with the other 90ish lol. You just spec into all the best skills, and run everything all at once?
I can’t even fathom how this worked pre 1.10 lol
Other than sunders that sounds like all the reason I bought D2R to avoid rather than play on those janky p-serves.
Then they patched it into crap. Should have stopped at 2.3.
Because you needed a way to hit immunes pre busted items. 
Also don’t forget no insight, and no mana pots in shops. So you actually needed investment in mana and ways to return mana unless you wanted to tp back and forth every 30 seconds.
There were also WAY less +skills around, so you needed more investment than just 1 point wonders then slap on 17+ to skills. 1.10 was the 3rd worst thing to happen to D2… right behind Mosaic and Sunders.

Oh wow… that’s the key. That’s it right there. That’s where your skill points go. All the 1 point wonders wouldve needed at least 10, but probably more.
I really like this. Gives you more control over your build, and more options.
My clay golem has like 7000hp. Because of + skills, he only cost me 3 skill points.
To get a golem like that without +skills would be a 30 skill point investment. And that’s foregoing any “summon resist”.
Wow I’m blown away… I actually am a big fan of this.
Why the HELL did they change it lmao. Now I’m disappointed lol
