At first, it turned out that Blizzard’s servers weren’t just ready for such an influx of users, so they crashed and didn’t allow players to fight the force of evil. After the release, the situation took on a bit of a dimension. In beta testing, some users complained about bugs, but then the scale of the disaster was not yet clear. However, the excitement around the release of the remaster quickly subsided, and there are a number of objective reasons for that.
This was facilitated by both interest from the community and the game’s long -awaited port to the console. Created 20 years ago, the game at some point became the most popular on the streaming platform. On the first day after release, the top online section of Diablo II: Resurrection on Twitch reached more than 415 thousand viewers on nearly six thousand broadcasts. We must admit that Blizzard’s bet was fully justified. Let’s be honest, Blizzard is once again skilled at manipulating feelings of nostalgia in its fans, but it makes it so beautiful that you don’t want to complain.
