What's up everyone! I wanted to introduce you all to Project Diablo 2, a game I've been playing for a few years now that I really love. It's a great game, and if you're someone who loved Diablo 2 I promise you will love this game. Also, I forget to mention that we are currently about 2 months into Season 7, so you'll likely see Season 8 coming in August. Enjoy!

Pd2 is the most balanced game I have played. This mod is damn near perfection at this point. Give this a try!

@LordByronicles 10 ай бұрын

Such a great Game, and for those who played early seasons there have been SO MANY quality-of-life changes since, never mind the graphics/item balancing.

@varyktv 10 ай бұрын

Agreed! I hope to get more people to at least take a look at it :) Especially people who decide to stop playing D4 but still want a good diablo experience

To me it’s easily the best D2 experience that exists today and one of the top 3-5 Arpgs out there. They’ve done such an awesome job staying true to the soul of the game while adding great new content and challenges that will keep you grinding for hours. Love it.

Hello! I just reinstalled PD2 and couldnt find a hotkey for move command. I couldnt even find a workaround with left right move click and bind it to hotkey somehow. I swear it was possible like 6 months ago, but I cant figure it out what has changed. This is very annoying relying on only left click to be able to move. Furthermore, the Hotkey D didnt seem to work at all, like I wanted to set the Paladin Skill Sacrfice to D, but he either attacked just once or not at all, whereas other hotkeys (e.g. E or W) worked totally fine. did you have any of those issues?

@varyktv 11 ай бұрын

Hmmmm, I only know of the move command as the left click skill and that's where I use it. Maybe ask in the pd2 discord for further guidance? I'm sorry I can't help more!

I’ve been playing single player project d2 for a bit now, I’m a 20 year d2 vet and one of the first things I’ve noticed is the drop rates are higher then what I’m used to. What are your thoughts on this, specifically regarding single player ?

@varyktv 10 ай бұрын

yeah they've adjusted the drop rates a little, but it doesn't feel too much imo, you still get that good dopamine hit when something rare drops

@flonkas 10 ай бұрын

@@varyktv I’m still experimenting but I think it’s just a tad too much. But I still need to test. Back in the day , I was 16 years old playing 12 hours a day, now I’m 32 and I only play 3 hours a day at the most. So I appreciate the opportunity to still find things in my limited time, but i still think it’s a tad too high.

@varyktv 10 ай бұрын

@@flonkas That's fair! You bring up a good point of being in your mid-30s with only a couple of hours to play at a time. That's what most of us are, so I think most of us are happy to have a higher drop chance. Some can only play 30min, so it's even nicer to actually see things drop

It doesn’t at the moment. And if it ever does, no one will play d2r anymore. Pd2 is objectively the best version of d2, minus graphics. Now that I’ve played d2r I couldn’t go back to old graphics, and I kinda hate that. I wish I never knew the new graphics so I could enjoy pd2, because it owns

So, I have to buy the original Diablo 2 + LOD expansion to play this mod, correct? Just making sure, I already own D2R + D4.. Want to make sure it's worth it before getting the originals just to play it.. + I heard if you pirate the game they will just ban you for having a non official CD key. So... if that is the case, I'll definitely be making the purchase. Just trying to get some insight first. :p

@@varyktv Thanks man. Excellent vid. Your explanation is very concise. I appreciate that a lot. Right now I'm playing the Belzebub HD mod for D1. It is what D1 should have been. It has some crafting, Unique and set items, bigger belt and stash and new characters etc. It is pretty good except for that HORRIBLE grind. Haha. The grind is really bad. But this mod for D2 and there are a lot of them out there, looks really great. From what you have shown in this video it is probably what D2 should have been. I like features such as rerolling of items. Often you find items that are just not right which renders it completely useless. Shared stash. Charm inventory And the new skills looks nice. Crafting Maps looks nice too. I was going insane with Baal's laughter back in the day. I guess the rebalancing of the game is superb too. I take your word for it. I should try this. And don't play D4 indeed. Blizzard is not the same company anymore. That one looks a little bit better than I was expecting to be fair, but you shouldn't support those guys. They are seriously after your money only. Look at Diablo Immoral for example. They're going to do the same thing to D4. Anyway, sorry for the little bit of long read and rant. Thanks man.
