Good to see plenty of people in the comments experiencing nostalgia due to fond memories of playing this great, great game :)
You may be unaware that there is "Belzebub", a "HD mod" for the original Diablo, available today, that taches the original engine a few tricks (besides the obvious 1080p resolution), and also re-introduces a lot of the game's planned content that had to be cut from the final release shortly before the gold master was spun. And IT IS AWESOME! Even if you never tried the original classic, you should probably give this a go if ARPGs in a dark fantasy setting are something you might like.
To whet your appetite, check the trailer (https://youtu.be/m4PfLbMJCoA https://youtu.be/m4PfLbMJCoA) on the (afaik, unfortunately discontinued) mod's website: https://mod.diablo.noktis.pl/features https://mod.diablo.noktis.pl/features
The 1.045 release you may still download there (you need to provide a copy of the game's assets in the form of the main CDs ".mpq" data file yourself) is essentially a polished and extended re-make of the original Diablo 1. I played for hours each day for a few days straight after I discovered the project in 2015. Hope someone else in here enjoys it as much as I did! :)
- lobotryas 9y agoDo you know if the mod includes features/content from the D1 expansion? It's hard to track down and I never played it (despite wanting to).
- c0l0 9y agoIf by "expansion" you mean Sierra's "Hellfire", then no - there's no content overlap between it and Belzebub that I'd know of (that's not already included in the original Diablo, of course).
