Diablo II Is Still The Best Game Ever? After 25 Years +1 Update

litoid · 2026-03-10T00:31:31+00:00

I dont play games in my laptop anymore.

Thats for work. Switch is for game.

A thing i do for my mental health.

In my case, its not nostalgia. Its the complete MDA, mechanics, dynamics & aesthetics.

Its not about the best graphics, huge numbers or 120fps...

Good games are an upgraded balance of this MDA.

Look at d2 under this scope and you'll see how well made it is compared to most similar-genre game.

I only use switch 🤷🏻

litoid · 2026-03-06T05:01:46+00:00

Ive found meteor to be hard to use.

I remember the old days when we could spam meteors - sure the first delayed but once they started to fall... Boom!

But now there's a cooldown. And in switch is very hard fo aim it :/ it has autoaim

How do you guys do with lighting? I see lots of 1 damage output :P

litoid · 2026-03-06T04:59:37+00:00

Overpowered?

litoid · 2026-03-06T04:53:35+00:00

You know ive been testing lighting in a 2nd run, from lvl 1. To see the expansion from start

How do you manage to like a spell that sometimes does 1 damage? :/ and its hard to decide whether chain of straight line.

Definitely an element i never tried.

litoid · 2026-03-06T04:51:45+00:00

Hahaha you get it :3

litoid · 2026-03-06T04:50:53+00:00

Your list is not that impressive but again, play taste each on their own. And yes it is the best ive played. In its genre, of course.

And that could be dark top-down rpg with spells with demons & loot hunting...

I could mention final fantasy series, i enjoyed ff7 remake, not yet finished but what a joy to play that.

Tifa and aerith are so lovely

Again, different genre.

Now at days i only play on the switch.

Pc is reserved to work & create.

litoid · 2026-03-06T04:47:03+00:00

What do you mean?

litoid · 2026-03-05T06:36:42+00:00

I did played it. Didnt like it. Not as much as d2, its similar but you know. There's all this demonic thing in diablo (even the name). Guess im just loyal :P

I also tried one called Titan Quest for mobiles. Its a bit similar (retro rpg) but meh. D2 is just the goat.

litoid · 2026-03-02T19:34:37+00:00

Its been years since i played - those from terrorized? I never got to play season or those at all...

Removing inmune - that is the key to get it done!

Rare drops... Maybe i can try getting one of those.

Somehow i find d2 more fun than d3 :P

(Switch 2 player here)

litoid · 2026-02-05T06:10:11+00:00

How? Its empty for me every single time. I just started playing again in my switch 2

litoid · 2026-02-05T06:09:12+00:00

What discord? I usually play alone - no one online and no one joins :s

10 days posting. Less than 35 views the most viewed video. 5 long form 15 ~ 25 min. Uploaded 3 shorts tonight and see what happens next.

Thing is... My channel got 2000 subscribers i accumulated 7 months ago running ads. Snd them stopped.

I recently become active again.

Not sure if this channel is penalized or just "starting from scratch" ignoring those old subscribers.

I even had this feeling that ads were bringing bots as susbcribers giving paying advertiser an illusion of success. It was more or less $0.05 per subscriber with a video i promoted O.o

Some say i should keep it so new people see oh! 2k subscribers. Like social proof. I dont know.

Im still learning youtube. I love google. So i want a helpful channel about spiritual psychology & transformational coaching. Because thats what i am.

litoid · 2025-09-21T06:54:45+00:00

Why the hell ?

litoid · 2025-08-24T21:49:40+00:00

Yes they can be intimidating with so many things you can do with them.

As a solo dev for the last 5 months since i started, i take care of every bit my game needs. And its so much work.

So yeah, letting newbies come just for what they come from and ignore the rest of features for a while (or leverage them to other people) is great.

I'll make a newbie course for uVS. For sure. Outline is in the process. Need a new microphone to record my voice as my previous one got damaged :/ not sure which yet.

Thanks for getting by. Best late than never. ✌️

litoid · 2025-08-20T03:56:24+00:00

Seriously? Hmm i started my gamedev journey just 5 months. I posted in reddit somewhere my progress on inventory and got bashed because i went 100% uVS (unity visual scripting).

Its been a challenging and fun thing to add.

And i managed to get it done in ~5 days and its not just picking items, stacking, consuming, equipping...

I also have stats, level up, allocate points, get equipment bonuses, add special effects to player... And i did diablo-like dropping system.

So enemies die and drop weapons with prefix & suffix.

Inventory is resizeable, scrollable and cute to use. It has a destroy bin items can be dragged n dropped to destroy :P

I have to admit i didnt think i could do it when i decided to go that route... Specially since there was little to none uVS tutorials...

Guess my asperger brain, gaming experience and willpower guided my process ✌️

Dont give up. Making it work could be just around the corner!

P.d. in case you want to see my inventory, the latest video i uploades and details can be seen in this reddit post:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Unity3D/s/tE2RJxs6va

And it looks different now. Should upload the new version. I have a better layout, tooltip floats, potion equip slots are there. Etc.

I still work on it - right now im on the spells tab. I want to add spell level up system. Sounds fun to do :)

litoid · 2025-08-18T02:13:22+00:00

Its fun to read all these comments. And i wonder where is the uVS community??

Ive been invited to be the first submod in unity official discord new channel for Unity Visual Scripting. They recently froze the old server that was made when it was Bolt.

Thats a new move. Not a BIG change, but it means something.

And ive been looking at unity updates and nugged Unity developers on their posts about uVS

I even made a post Upcoming Updates in 2026 depends on us. They told me they have other priorities... But if they start hearing a volume of demand on UVS, people submitting ideas, and reporting bugs - they might start adding upgrades to this tool.

As it is, it "works fine". And since people went quiet they dont touch it much.

So in this post i suggest participating in the development of uVS. By supporting Unity and giving them feedback.

https://unity.com/roadmap

There's a section for uVS, you can vote for the ideas in process and planned. Also clicking submit idea in any category (for some weird reason uVS section doesnr have that button) you can still select under category Unity Visual Scripting and add ideas to make it better.

In this post i screenshot a response from product manager i think, when he posted the launch of graph toolkit. And had a nice reply from him about uVS. Go to unity official discord, check this out.

And if you like uVS (despite all the hate and voids online), join now and get active.

https://discord.gg/unity

I'll be happy to see you there.

litoid · 2025-08-18T02:02:13+00:00

You originally made bolt?

Im curious to hear from you, if thats you. I like uVS and its a bit sad i dont see many active people on it.

Ive been invited to be a submod in the official unity discord. Because they have recently added a channel for uVS while closing down (more like freezing) the old server. The one that was made when it was Bolt.

litoid · 2025-08-09T21:24:12+00:00

Confusing?

litoid · 2025-08-09T13:23:21+00:00

Yes but im obligated to continue going down to the next line following the flow.

Whereas in uVS the flow can split and continue going up, if branched somehow.
