A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

In the context of the leaked Warcraft II remake, do you still trust Blizzard to produce good games? (lemmy.cafe)

If you're still asking that question, you aren't paying attention. Overwatch 2, Diablo Immortal, Warcraft III: Reforged. Do you need 10 more years of shitty games to prove this to you?

There is no such thing as Blizzard. They were bought out by Activision, which was bought out by Microsoft.

From the comments, the remake of Diablo II was decent

Remake already means they failed.
All they did was get rid of the free at&t servers, upgrade a couple 2d sprites and put it in a launcher with a new price tag.

AFAIK it was done by Blizzard North, the same team that actually worked on D2 back then (when Blizzard was more like Blizzard). At least partly. Correct me if I'm wrong (I might easily be) but it is at least not a 100% match with regular Blizzard.

Developed by Vicarious Visions, a recent Activision Blizzard acquisition.

And I thought it was an excellent product (although I stopped playing before they started making larger changes in patches).

They outsource the remake.

I've been playing Diablo 4 and loving it.

It was PERFECT.
