Finally, the last subject that we were able to tackle, Blizzard is aware of the failure of Warcraft III Reforged and considers having made a mistake in the communication around the title by having made it pass too much for a remake while it was just a remaster. An error that the studio does not intend to reproduce in the future.

Comment by MiriandandesRemovedComment by LilyValentinAs long as they don't fudge it up, like Warcraft III, I'll be happy with it. Oh, but they can't use it to override the original like Warcraft III did. Even if Warcraft III: Reforged was good, I don't see why they needed to install on top of the original. Some people like the older graphics and what not, it's got nostalgia.Comment by GabrielinhoRemovedComment by ArchimtirosAs long as they don't fudge it up, like Warcraft III, I'll be happy with it.

Exceedingly saddening :CComment by lovelywazAlthough I am not interested in Diablo 2, but it seems like a rush announcement, although I don't think it will be much of a success after the debacle of Warcraft 3 Reforged, although fingers crossed for fans!Comment by Kaimasafumipeople already comparing it to the wc3 remaster are cringe

1) no one cares about cinematics or anything like that in diablo, they want a game with up to date graphics and is grindable
2) no custom games or other crap means no stupid eula %^&*
3) as long as they keep it core to what diablo 2 was, it'll be just fine
4) we know there wont be a real money ah

chill out on the immediate hate. i dont like blizzards choices as of recently either, but immediately comparing it to a game where they themselves basically hyped the ^&*! out of and gave us fake cinematics for, is pretty god damn brain dead imo.Comment by TattaliaThe fact that they think the issue with Warcraft 3: Reforged was a communications issue is exactly why I don't expect this 'remaster' to be any good.Comment by ZeMooKhajiitWhy Vicarious Visions? They've done a lot of the games for Skylanders and Guitar Hero and Spongebob, Blues Clues and Barbie: Magic Genie Adventure, Zoboomafoo too!

How in the fel are you gonna get them to do something as dark and sinister as Diablo 2? You can't! I'm just filled with all the "But Why's" that any single person can muster...Comment by zomjIs Diablo Immortal even going to happen still? Or was the backlash too much that they axed it?Comment by SquishyTiapeople already comparing it to the wc3 remaster are cringe

They've said they don't have the original source code for D2 anymore.Comment by SwapMePlzVicarious Visions did a great job on Destiny 2, not only port and "Warmind", but "Season of Opulence" also was their work - which is the best season and content for Destiny 2 to date. So I have my hopes very high for remastered Diablo 2.Comment by Archimtirospeople already comparing it to the wc3 remaster are cringe

Considering their showing there it is really hard to be excited about any more potential remasters.
