The sequels, while super fun games, didn't really capture the atmosphere that made the original so haunting. The desperation in the original was palpable, and moving through the dungeons really felt like a descent into hell and madness. Everything from the spanish guitar theme in the main town to the progressively more manic tone of the journals in the dungeons to the crazy ending just fit so perfectly.

The way I've always put it: Diablo 2 was a better game, but Diablo 1 was a better experience.

Yeah the sequels feel like a greater game in terms of quality and features. But fuck me Diablo 1 was scary as hell, even when played multiplayer. Man.. that Butcher.

  AHH, FRESH MEAT! You can almost tell a gamer's age by how they react to that, said in the right voice.

    If you want to hear that, try Heroes of the Storm :) you can play the Butcher, I actually kinda like him as a character.
