The Current State of Diablo 2

CarbotAnimations: Hey! Thats me! I made it in the video!
Most of these changes could actually be implemented pretty easily. Come on BLIZZ, do the THING!
Great video as always Cooley!
Fitsuuu: They just need to open it up to modding, no minor tweaks they do will ever match what PD2 etc. has already done. PD2 with D2:R level graphics would actually compete in the current-gen ARPG market.
CreationsVibration: I still play D2R everyday I fkn love this game
ATBediting: 1 to Town Portal and Skill Shrine effect while equipped are the coolest ideas I've ever heard for Tyreal's.
PhixonFire: Those Tyrael's Might ideas were some of the coolest things I've ever heard. I have never even considered Skill Shrine effects and 1 to Town Portal before. I'm imagining that the Skill Shrine effect would be a random roll, similar to how Ormus' Robes has to a random skill. A Tyrael's Might with a permanent Experience Skill Shrine would be bonkers
yearzer0: Mosaic gay
joshuaclouthier4405: The problem is PD2 is superior
dwarflord: Good video as always, I would have liked to hear more about the player population and botting etc. My favourite time of D2R was on launch prior to ladder and botting was not figured out, every item I found felt worthwhile. Nowadays even a rare item such as a high rune is worthless after a couple weeks of ladder.
shiversky: project diablo 2 > any other diablo, it's just that simple
MrGWAMPO: D2 FOREVER
bicdNW: If they just got rid of bots the game would be amazing.
RoastedPheasant: Ideas for Fixes:
1. Leap Attack on a unique boots to give a mobility option that isn't just teleport, make it work on any class because a leaping Werewolf or Bear would be sick. The stronger option would still be to run enigma, but you're then committing a body armor slot as a cost for power, instead of it just being the best option by default.
2. Add ias to increased speed, fhr and fbr to iron skin, double swing as a whirlwind synergy
3. Add werewolf synergy to summon wolf skills, add werebear synergy to summon grizzly. Potentially let wolf and bear use werewolf/werebear skills (set bonus?)
4. Make attack rating 25% more lenient so melee attacking builds are more competitive with casters
5. Ability to use potions while leaping or whirlwinding seriously this is such an unnecessary issue.
6. More dynamic end game content or obscure puzzle things for the community to figure out. Uber Tristram was a cool secret and did a lot for interest in the game at a lull in interest, an uber travincal or uber worldstone would work wonders.
looter_game: We need D2RR,D2RRR,D2RRRR...
greatvalue1337: D2's biggest problem is that it incentives people to play solo, grouping is worse for loot
Omnip073n77: It's irritating that a lot of these changes are pretty low-hanging in terms of time and resources, yet they probably still won't bother implementing them. They probably want to focus on bringing the hype back for D4 instead.
Driven2Chonk: PD2 solves pretty much all these issues hundreds if not thousands more. It's amazing what happens when a game is developed by passionate fans of the series. JOIN US.
warp1geon: Project Diablo 2 folks - that's where it's at.
xPremo_: No way we got a Video upload on the same day as DFC! Dude's putting in work.
Dro4Sho20: NIce ending... I want more!
Macdaddy8124U: Cooley's channel is the only thing keeping D2R alive
RandomStuff-zw7uh: The problem with the game is the business model.

When your game has a box price and nothing else, it's hard to keep a team to update the game like PoE which offers a micro transaction model..
securatyyy: Make the standard of heroes a tome of town portal with 100 quantity.
General-Gauder: A small change that I have been wishing for years would be if the Anya Quest reward would also color the item so that rune words could also get colors
Odin_Oian: This put a smile on my face, as every "what if" video does. D2 is still the best game, even after all the flaws, old and new. There's not a lot that needs to change to me happy. :)
I would also literally pay $10 per month, $20 per season, or $70 per year, if Blizzard took updating and maintenance seriously and communicated with top D2 focused content creators
xDivulGeX: You absolute monster. I can't friggin' believe you would end the video like that.
jessesandburg: Would be dope if Blizz took a peak at this video!
