It’s funny you mention your first skills (basic skills) are just filler because this season some of the meta builds use basic skills as the main damage dealer so you don’t need to even think about resource regen as they don’t use it. Rogue and Sorcerer both have their best builds use the basic skills and work around them. There’s still a lot to be desired with balancing and endgame but I feel they are turning things around gradually.
Honestly, I can’t get behind d2r. D2 still runs perfectly fine, my Battlebox still installs, and I know it won’t have any bullshit from this side of the 2010’s
Seriously, give it a go. It’s honestly a great remaster. There are some extra runewords added and some other small stuff, but it’s basically D2 with nicer graphics and prettier cutscenes. Gameplay is unchanged, warts and all. We even get ladder resets again!
I agree that an item-filter would have been a nice addition, but with Blizzard you have to take a hardline #NoChanges approach. Otherwise you’ll get something like the WC3 remaster, or every Classic WoW expansion. They did add a few small additions after the remaster was released, like Helltides and some new Runewords, but they’re all thankfully ignorable if you want to.

I may try it, I just can’t get behind paying blizzard more money.
Yeah, that’s fair. I guess I’m hopeful that things have changed after Microsoft bought them, but they probably still suck.
