If only we could play offline…
I miss the good ol’ days haha
Good old days? You mean like Diablo 1? ~~D2 was online as well, except it stored your character files locally (so people could cheat their characters with a utility like Jamella).~~
I was mistaken. Still a long way to go back for an offline option, so it's probably a pipe dream in D4 and beyond.
I didn't mean that to sound as aggressive as it did, I apologize lol.
D2 could be played offline, I had a 28k connection when it released so I generally would just play it offline. I think regular Bnet was pretty good for not having cheaters but Open Bnet is where you could use your offline character and load him up with stuff using a trainer/program and play online.
Thanks for the correction. My memory is a little fuzzy. To be fair, we're still talking going back 23 years to even have an offline option.
Yeah, we played D1 and D2 multiplayer over LAN as a family. SO many good memories. My dad did hardcore on D2 Battle.net but always raged whenever our crappy Internet dropped.
