Will Blizzard’s next retro killer be the Diablo 2 Resurrection?

The technical alpha of Diablo 2 Resurrection gives people a preliminary understanding of the classic remake. Testers are usually very enthusiastic and surprised that the RPG action feels like before, but the action is different. Blizzard seems to rely on Diablo 2 to become the next retro album after World of Warcraft. What does the first generation of Alpha provide? From April 8th to April 12th, the technical test of the single-player game Diablo 2 Resurrection was conducted. Anyone who can hold any key can play the first two actions of the story and place improved graphics and quality of life at their own pace.


Alpha eliminates many testers' suspicion of Diablo 2

How does Alpha arrive? Although there was some suspicion before the beginning of the testing phase, most testers are enthusiastic about it. The fear comes from the less successful Warcraft 3 Reforged. The new version of Blizzard's strategy game is terrible for many veterans.

But for Diablo 2 After Alpha, the resurrection situation looks different. We summarize the opinions of some game media for you

Polygon editor Ben Kuchera wrote in his article (via Polygon) This is not the Diablo I played when I was a kid, but on a cool night, it still feels like a warm blanket.

Gamespot editor Michael Higham (via Gamespot) said, The Diablo 2 resurrection shows all signs, and it will retain the kind of unique RPG that many of us remember.

Ars Technica editor Sam Machkovech (via Ars Technica) explained I'm thrilled that D2R is like the previous Diablo-I's excited about the promised multiplayer alpha test because the old-fashioned awkward games are vibrant and crowded. Like-minded friends will be more satisfied when they play together.

Attack of the Fanatic Boy Brandon Adams wrote (through the attack of the Fanatic Boy) Nothing in Diablo 2 has been deleted or completely redesigned in Resurrection. If anything, If you do, this re-production sometimes feels a bit too safe.

IGN's Mitchell Saltzmann said (via IGN), Yes, the core of Diablo 2 has been maintained for 20 years after the original version was released, although some major frustrations have to be overcome due to certain outdated design issues. All in all, Diablo 2 Destroyer 2 Resurrection is very promising despite being in the Alpha stage.

The community is also looking forward to the release

What is the community's opinion on this game? Even players who are not from commercial media have the opportunity to watch Diablo 2 Resurrection.

ShadeScapes is very happy (via Reddit) It looks great, and it feels like I want a new version.

Darthreuental is still a little skeptical (via Reddit) My main concern is that this will only be D2 doing new painting work. I know I did. The demand for this alone is huge. But, whatever you like, I still hate it. Diablo 3 has a lot of features. I will miss it very much.

TOPCommander said (via the official D2R forum) The feel and play of D2R are similar to D3LOD 1.14d. So far, this is great.

Shivan is not so keen on Alpha (via the official D2R forum) I prefer the original D2 Classic and LoD to this version. Playing this version of the excellent D2 is too clumsy or cumbersome.


What is popular? The testers especially praised the detailed graphics and lighting of Diablo 2 Resurrection. Some changes in the quality of life have also been well received

What is not so popular? In addition to redesigning the opponent Blood Raven (which has received some criticism), it also criticized the following content of Diablo 2 Resurrection

Load time may be shorter

Some skill effects are not strong enough

Too many task progress pop-ups

For non-experienced people, its playback speed is not as fast as Diablo 3.
