Diii.net delves into the one potentially interesting aspect of the latest Diablo 2 Patch. Is this a Diablo 3 related change?
"One of the odder tidbits in the v1.13 patch notes is this little line, "Updated two Act 5 mercenary names to Klar and Tryneus." What does this mean? Why was the change made? Has it been confirmed? Yes. Thanks to MakeLoveNotDupe's screenshot we know both of them are now hireables on the test realm, and thanks to the code-delving of Silospen, we know that the names were indeed "updated."
So it's been done. But why?"
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.
All those games had to release without bugs.
Diablo IV may be the latest entry from the Diablo series, but it can sure learn a thing or two from the iconic Diablo II. Both of these games are different and similar to each other, but Diablo II's phenomenal presence should still be more appearing in Diablo IV to make the game even better in its current state.
A fan-run initiative called Project Diablo 2 has brought a 60 FPS update for the classic Diablo title, among other changes.
Boo! Thought this was eventually a patch for diablo2 on PS5. The fact that they can’t get that game to run in quality mode at 60fps is an absolute joke!
It's an interesting read. I think it would be really cool if they were already integrating Diablo II with Diablo III.
It's kinda weird indeed. Especially with the original meaning of the names, compared to the new ones.
I think he might have stumbled upon something real here!
Always finding that needle in a haystack eh?
Blizzard never does anything without a reason. Even if it's just to throw people off of the real trail. :)
I can almost bet these characters will be prominent in a new Diablo novel.
