How many copies of D2 and LoD have you purchased over the years?

I’ve personally purchased 17 key sets over the years, 9 digital, 7 battlechests and one set in separate boxes. I’ve never botted nor had a key disabled. I use to manually play 4 characters at once on 4 machines, and now I manually play 8 on one machine.

I ask because a game reporter on IG a few years back claimed that IMDb Pro (Amazon) says D2 and LoD sold 100 million copies, which I don’t think is far fetched, considering the number of gamers in the world and the number of botters and all the keys they’ve purchased over the years. I do understand that there was a huge used keys black market business that IMDd may be including.

So how many of those 100 mil have you owned or purchased?

I had many back on classic, I loved using follower scripts…

For d2r 3 x PC copies and 2 x switch copies too which doesnt give me extra accounts :sweat_smile:

Regardless of the true number, d2 lod profit was no doubt demolished by d3 sales and either way, it is chump change compared to what wow was raking in…

I think it must be around 7 or 8 full key sets (all sets but 1 where physical) for D2 LOD and 2 digital for D2R.

All of my Diablo purchase history.

D1: bought it 3 times: PS1 version, original boxed copy, and GoG (and techinically a fourth copy that came with D2 battle pass). Never bought hellfire boxed, but have it on the GoG pack.
D2 and LoD: bought the battle chest back when that released, bought it again on battle net when I entered college, and that’s about it, I never multiboxed. (the answer to your question)
D2R: bought it 3 times, for PC, PS5 and Switch
D3: bought the original on PC then bought the PS3 release, then RoS, then the PS3 version of RoS, then the PS4 version of D3 + RoS, then on switch.
D4: bought it on PC and ps5.

My interest isn’t if people “multiboxed” or ran multiple games at once, but to see how many people have purchased multiple copies over the years. I mentioned what I do with all my copies because i wanted to be sure others know I don’t bot with them. Saying that I know no one cares if I bot on LoD or not – if I ran 8 copies of D2R it would be manual as well.
