We were coming from 5 years of Diablo 1. That’s what was fun.
Diablo 2 brought new things Diablo 1 didn’t have:
- 5 new classes
- Separate skill trees for every class
- Rare items! D1 only had white, magic and uniques
- Acts with 3 different cities and the Pandemonium fortress. Diablo 1 only had Tristram
- 8 player coop on Battle.net (D1 had only 4)
- Horadric Cube
- A stash for your items! It was small, but D1 didn’t have on AT ALL
- We did have gems in D2. That was also new.
- Sockets on items, also new.
- SET ITEMS!
- RUNNING!
All of these were super new for us. That’s what was exciting. We didn’t even know about Runewords and Charms.
Sure, we ran Chaos Sanctuary over and over for a year, but how is running the same dungeons over and over in D4 any better?
D4 doesn’t offer anything new. It actually has less than D2 in many cases, and even less than D2LOD. We don’t even have runewords or sets in D4 for crying out loud!!!
