Old timer here.... Diablo 2 has a story with an atmosphere that sucks you in. In that sense Diablo 3 was a real disappointment.

Now, if you're going for Diablo 2 it's the remastered version you want. The game is like 20 years old and not made for widescreen so it really feels dated on a modern screen. Also, prepare for isometric pixel graphics.

Grim Dawn also has a mod called Reign Of Terror that lets you play the entirety of Diablo 2 in GD, complete with classes, skills and items! It has some differences because it's built on Grim Dawn's systems, so it has the dual-class system from Grim Dawn (with similarly laid out skill trees), item affixes work like Grim Dawn, etc, but it feels great to play! And you can combine Grim Dawn classes with D2 classes, D2 classes with other D2 classes, or just play the D2 campaign with a regular Grim Dawn build. It's great!

EDIT: spelling

Omg how have I not heard about this. I'm blaming you for my lack of social life in the next couple weeks. Not that I have one to begin with.

I'll see you at the end of Act 2 when you remember what a fucking slog Act 3 was and decide you've scratched the itch.

I'm now just learning of this too and intend to do the same
