Man, I bought the 3D all stars game last week thinking it would be fun for the wife and I to play through together. I couldn’t finish more than a few levels - the camera control in those games is so so so bad. I was ready to puke after 15 minutes from motion sickness.

It’s a shame because I’d absolutely sink 20 hours into Mario 64 if they just imported modern day camera controls. I understand that would likely require some work to implement but I’m paying you 60 dollars for a 20 year old game, so maybe having to put an bit of work into it isn’t the worst thing in the world.

But apparently they had the time to take out the backward long jump glitch? WTF? I always loved skipping straight to Bowser 3 after Bowser 2.

What character did you go with?

[prana]

Sorceress but I’m scared and suck at these games micro involved kind of so thinking of leveling a Paladin up to see what’s before me as I heard they are a faceroll class haha.

Always loved a zealadin

I sucked so bad at SC2 micro. If you guys could have heard my buddy who is a great gamer bitch at me while we got rolled in duos it would be comedy gold.

I always liked golem necros, but it ended up being kinda weak by the time you get to act 4.

The streamer I watched that got me into this was playing a necro and got pretty far but died because of shitty gear rolls and a fat finger button mash in hell. It looks fun.

[wirelessgrinder]

Necro was always my fav, never played hardcore though fuck that, also I never played on battlenet really, played it all offlien

[prana]

That’s what is making it interesting imo. It seems easily doable if you are careful and plan things instead of just rezzing and button mashing again. Back then though, a dial up connection could ruin it. TBH, this first Act was not hard really at all but, it’s Act 1 in Normal so still Nightmare and Hell to go. If I make it all the way through I’ll be amazed.

[wirelessgrinder]

I think most areas are fairly safe if you think about it before hand or if you have played it through before and know what to expect but the bosses would still scare the shit out of me on hardcore

That necro died and his barb died last night too I guess. Yeah, I don’t have a chance of finishing probably. It’s still fun af.

[wirelessgrinder]

Lol man I forgot about the cow level, sick!

[prana]

Both of his deaths have been just dumb shit not on bosses. Head on a swivel. i’m pretty sure they were both in hell difficulty too. A lot of time spent.

Diablo 2 most fun I’ve had in a game since like Warhammer (MMO PVP game). Act 1 on hardcore complete. Hades is fun af too but you can die in that. Hardcore Diablo makes shit exciting.

What class did you select.

Let us know when you die to Duriel :)

[Chuckleslovakian]

I think I made it through act 1 on hardcore. Had a slight lag that cost me in act 2 which is why I never did hardcore again. Was fun though. All about being super duper careful, and grinding out that one last seemingly unnecessary level.

[catfacemeowmers]

Outside of the bosses, my most hated enemies are those fucking monsters in act 2 that shoot out lighting when you hit them. They’ll kill you super quickly if you’re not paying attention.

[TheHip41]

Fuck those bugs lol

[wirelessgrinder]

some of the poison ones in Act2 can creep up on you quick as well
