Not make pleased to merely add additional levels, the creators of the Diablo II: Lord of Destruction expansion have improved the entire Diablo II game experience while concluding the tale. The expansion has been described as both an add-in and an add-on, and it truly is a must-have for Diablo II players.
The add-on is the new act, which finally concludes the epic tale of Diablo. The end of the fourth act of Diablo II saw Baal, brother of Diablo and last of the Prime Evils, reclaim his soulstone from the deceived mortal Marius. Lord of Destruction tells the tale of Baal’s destructive trek owing to the Barbarian Highlands of the north. The player must stop Baal before he corrupts the magical Worldstone and opens hell to the mortal world. An ancient barbarian tribe guards the holy mountain that houses the stone, and is the only thing that stands between Baal and Armageddon. The player must use a character who has completed the fourth act to access the fifth act (the expansion) and help the besieged barbarians.
The add-in is all the improvements to the core game. The most obvious is the graphics. Lord of Destruction lets gamers ratchet up Diablo II’s graphics resolution to 800 x 600. This means both prettier graphics and the ability to see more of the battlefield at once, which effectively increases the range of spells and missile weapons. Best part: the graphics boost applies to all of the original game as well as the expansion’s new act.
The graphics boost is nice, but hard-core players will most likely better appreciate the gameplay enhancements. It’s hard to pick the release best element from the long list of significant improvements: a larger character stash, more socketable items, more unique items, new classes of weapons for high-difficulty levels, and new Horadric Cube recipes. Entirely new features include the ability to craft unique magic items, runes (which function like gems but can be combined to form powerful runeword combinations), totems (which add ability, combat, or resistance bonuses, but take up space in inventory), and hireling inventory (you’ll hand down your ancient equipment to your hireling). All these improvements are useful to both the new act and the four earlier acts in Diablo II. After playing with all these tweaks, you’ll marvel how you ever managed to play with the tiny stash, blurry graphics, and weak hirelings of the original.
Even experienced Diablo II players get to appreciate the improvements to the first owing to fourth acts because the two new character classes (Assassin and Druid) must complete all four acts in Diablo II before you can use them in the expansion. The Assassin is a stealthy warrior and wizard slayer who uses martial arts, traps, and mental discipline to defeat hell’s minions. The Druid is a feral whose spells, animal summoning, and shape-shifting abilities suit a wide range of playing styles. Both are cool enough to warrant playing owing to all of Diablo II once again. And the conclusion to one of the best-loved and most-played sports meeting of all time is satisfying–well worth the hours of sleepless nights and blurry-eyed mornings. –Mike FehlauerAmazon.com Product Description

if it was an option given i would have given this game zero stars! This was the stupidest game ever made! Maybe it was better back then, but now its just stupid.The graphics stink, and If your a Christian, let me tell u this is a very insulting game. I suggest it only if u have a comp that came from 1995. I bet no one does. So all u plz don’t buy this. if u want a excellent game, get dungeon siege:Legends of Aranna(releases November 11, 2003), Dungeon Siege 2(sometime in May 2005), or Never Winter Nights, Shadows of Undrentide(already out). If u plot On getting Shadows of Undrentide, get Never Winter Nights first. Undrentide is an expansion pack and wont work without Never Winter Nights.
No matter what you do, don’t get Diablo 2 or its expansion. It’s not much now to anyone and it’s crap. Just don’t buy it. no one’s even online for it. Well, not many people, that is. If u guys get Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna or Dungeon Siege 2 I’ll see u online. I have Never Winter Nights but not the expansion. I don’t plot on getting it either. but their coming out with A second Never Winter Nights and I’ll probably get that. Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna is also an expansion for Dungeon Siege 1 but I read about it online and Dungeon Siege 1 will come with the expansion when u buy it according to its official website.
And one more thing: Dungeon Siege is the best game ever and Dungeon Siege 2 will be even better! My username will probably be dungeonsieger34. Plz get one of them. I’m Definatly getting Dungeon Siege 2 unles its rated Mature. My mother won’t let me get it then.
But I saw an ad for it and it looks sot of like Lord of the Rings which was rated Teen. So was Dungeon Siege 1 And Legends of Aranna. so I’ll definatly get it if its rated Teen. I can’t wait to meet all of you reading this! (ok that was corny)
DIABLO 2 STINKS!!!!!!!

So , it’s coming… I must Admit I’ve been waiting for the expansion pack with a lot of anxiosness. I know Blizzard have made a fine job in making this game. The thing that really bothers me is that (again) for playing under WINDOWS 2000 , I _WILL_ need Administrator rights. I believe this to be a flaw in Diablo 2 , and I’m dissapointed Blizzard aren’t doing anything to right it. You see , the thing is , that while gaming on Battle.net , one is online constantly.And in case of a bug (or a hacker interference) the whole system will go down , if someone is logged as an Administrator. And I’m not sure if i’m willing to risk my computer’s stability for a pleasant gaming experience.Are you?

Ever been divorced then re-walk down the aisle the same person? Then you know what its like to return to …, as you will do in the upcoming Diablo II expansion pack:Lord of Destruction. LoD adds 2 new character classes, new monsters, thousands of new items, an expanded inventory space to hold more of those gems and goodies, and other new surprising features that will keep us die hard Diablo players glued to our monitors for days at a time again. You need the original Diablo 2 to play and as this is a continuation going into Act 5, you will need a high level character. This is defintiely gonna be splendid….Im so … excited Im gonna buy two !!

This is an RPG where you start out as one of 5 Character classes, you then venture off into the wilderness where you will meet enemys of all shapes and sizes. While fighting (and hopefully conquering) the monsters, you gain EXP wich then can eventualy be place towards Your character’s Hurt inflicted, defense, Life, energy, and a new skill that they can go using up energy as they do it.
