Back of the Box

The storyline of Diablo II progresses through four acts, with each act following a more or less predetermined path and list of quests. Some quests are optional. The player assumes the role of a hero from one of five different character classes. Players fight monsters through wilderness areas and dungeons in order to level-up their character and gain better items. Combat is in real-time, and shown from an isometric viewpoint. Players also have the option of hiring one of several computer-controlled mercenaries, or hirelings, that follow the player and attack nearby enemies. A powerful boss monster awaits the player at the end of each act. Item drops, monster attributes, and most dungeon layouts are randomly-generated by Diablo II.

Great game, but as time progresses and improvements in technology are made newer releases need to be brought out to meet customer demands. Personally I feel that Blizzard have dragged the release of Diablo III out for far too long. They need to release newer versions sooner.

@BinarY -> what do you mean you used BattleNET to download it? over BattleNET you only automatically update game version, but installing the game itself is supposed to be using cd-s or...? I also bought the original and expansion and I couldn't start the game unless set to XP compatibility mode. Too bad I have 22'' monitor and I cannot play it on 800x600 resolution, and I'm afraid to use HIGH-RES mod, I could get banned :)

@ Hellfire_zg

Hmm... I bought the game 2 days ago and it works fine. I am using Windows 7. However I did use BNET to download it so I dunno if that has anything to do with it? But as soon as it downloaded I was playing :D
