Title is weird with how it could be interpreted to mean mtx was $1 billion.

So for people who might be confused

150 million dollars from in-game microtransactions.

1000M/150M = 666% That title is at least 666% misleading.

This is excellent publicity that convinces me not to even try that game.

They killed it with D2R. I was so scared they wouldn’t, but it’s fantastic.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is that some d2 remake? I'm so out of the loop :-)

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That is! Came out a couple years ago. It is one of the best remakes I’ve ever played! After the WC3 disaster I had no hope, but the smashed it out of the park. I heavily recommend it if you loved Diablo II!

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thank you!

Is it like D2 with the expansion pack?

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Yep! Full LoD. Full controller support. Tons of added stuff that fits PERFECTLY with Diablo II. Tons of new runewords and items and events. It’s an absolute banger at like 40USD.

I'm still pissed I bought that piece of shit game

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I barely got through the story on my first character. Every other Diablo, I did at least one full run in every class.

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Honestly I fell asleep playing the game... Twice.

There's just something that makes me so bored.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm right there with you. I won't deny that there's a chance that it's just a side effect of being old, but I nodded off more than a few times.

I can't put my finger on it either, but everything just felt like a chore. I must quit playing it for months and only fired it up to finish the story because I knew I had to be close, and I couldn't leave it like that.

[–] Minnels@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Can't say that I enjoyed the story but I think the game is in pretty good shape right now after a couple of seasons. If you like to just kill stuff at least.
