    The Guardian spell and chain lighting spell is a blessing to tackle mobs and range enemies.

    The first time you opened that door and heard "HMMM, FRESH MEAT."

    Diablo was my first game I got addicted to. I was 9 or 10 when I started playing it at my cousins house in 1996/97. They had two computers wired up by LAN and we would play it for hours. It was such an amazing game. I'm gonna have to get it to install the Mod you're playing with. Looks amazing.

      Thanks for the first comment friend! Means a lot... I was in elementary school when this game was released. My big brother managed to get his hands on it! Man did it CREEP me out.

      TheSuperRetroBros out of all the games I've played, it NAILS the atmosphere, even better than others in the series. I actually quit playing really early when i was 10 but came back this year and finished it, and holy fuck the ranged demons in hell made me angry!

    Diablo 1 is my favorite game of all time, but it is dated ofcourse, but this Mod has really updated it to run BUTTERSMOOTH with 60 fps, it also adds LOADS of quests that were planned but never released for the original. I can't recommend this Mod ENOUGH! It is without a doubt the best ARPG gaming experience you can get your hands on in my opinion!

    • @MickeRamone
      @MickeRamone 4 роки тому

      Oh, the Mod also adds alot of mechanincs that were in Diablo 2 , like rare and set items, crafting system, weapon swap amd MORE!

  • @JosephAlanMeador

    And 1 year later.. instead of remaster edition... Blizzard releasing Diablo mobile game which none of fans wanted.. Same story as Dungeon Keeper. RIP DK and Diablo.. Pls devs of Belzebub Mod, just make your own game and call it Belzebub or something.. :D

    • @DreamyAbaddon
      @DreamyAbaddon 5 років тому +1

      Why do we need a remastered when the original game works on modernized PC and we got mods? This isn't console gaming. We don't need remasters. I prefer a Diablo 4 instead

    I love Diablo 1. I am currently playing this mod and I love playing these deleted quests. It's the atmosphere, the story and lore.

  • @barbedwire8338
    @barbedwire8338 5 років тому +1

    I remember the first time I played this (vanilla D1), I didn't actually get the Butcher quest. My first true mission was about King Leoric. I only remembered this because I was trying out the different characters and thought it was cool that it seemed like the different characters had different quests.
    -edited for clarification

  • @snuffeldjuret
    @snuffeldjuret 6 років тому +1

    Diablo 1 will forever be THE game for me. I played it at the right time where it was almost too gory for me. Not too scary, just creepy. Being a kid, it was not too easy but not too hard. Having played D&D in a similar action packed fashion, it was just such a perfect visualization of my imagination.

    • @TheSuperRetroBros
      @TheSuperRetroBros  5 років тому +1

      Yup. I can totally relate. I did play it a bit too early and put it down for a year before I came back to it and manned up lol.

  • @DubKustomz
    @DubKustomz 6 років тому +2

    OMG! Diablo!!! i use to play it every day, before and after school and until the Late night, and all day and night in my days off! My God The Game that Made me a Loyal and truly Fan of the Series. its a shame that you cant no longer play the game anymore. i try many times but without vail. only diablo 2 can run in my windows 10. i wish i could play it just for nostalgic value.

    • @TheSuperRetroBros

    @GameplayandTalk 6 років тому +1

    Great review! I'll have to give this mod a try. I currently play the game on an old system with an original disc, but these QOL upgrades seem really nice. Blizzard needs to remaster this game.

    • @TheSuperRetroBros
      @TheSuperRetroBros  5 років тому

      It's definitely something you should consider. Diablo 1 is a classic that's easily forgotten in the midst of all the great games blizzard has released. Go check out the mod!

  • @michaelcoffey1991
    @michaelcoffey1991 5 років тому +2

    Still think this is the best of the series and this is coming from someone who liked the Diablo 3 game on Pc (once they removed that auction house garbage) and LOVED Diablo 3 on PS4 but Diablo 2 on Pc was and I fear will always be the gold standard. The game was stellar and the mod community even better, the expansions were fun too. a timeless classic for sure.

  • @AkasaurusRex
    @AkasaurusRex 6 років тому +2

    I've always been a Warcraft 1st fan but lately been getting more and more into Diablo. I hope D4 can strike abalance between D1 and 2 and D3. I totally missed the first two games, I think because I was a crazy teen during the Grunge era and also delving into Paganism and anything with Judeao-Christian aesthtics like Satantic stuff put me off.
    I'm thinking of getting the Polymega this awesome new cd retro playing in hd console coming out this year, it will do PS1, sega cd and turbo duo games and carts. Checked Diablo 1 for ps1 on ebay and its not a bad price to have it physically. Mouse and keyboard gameplay is extremly painful for my hands with a muscle condition I have so controller support is a must with any game. I'm using a controller ad on for WOW and its made it like a brand new game its so much better.
    I'm hoping to do something special with Diablo videos soon and especially if this Blizzcon becomes the "Diablo Blizzcon" with hopefully D4 announced it may truly become my main game.....personally I want a Druid class pack AND a D4 announcement.

  • @Melzasx
    @Melzasx 4 роки тому +5

    Good. Only complain is that D1 wasnt meant to be played at that high zoomed-out perspective. It was too much closer, so the feeling of "unknown" and fear was higher.

  • @aBanabis
    @aBanabis 4 роки тому +3

    dude this game gets HARD in the later difficulties.. especially if you just run through it without trying to grind for gear..
    some major stat checks exist in the later difficulties.. the risen hero in the catacombs of hell mode was impossible for my sorcerer to kill.. i had to just give up after trying all of my spells on him... bone spirit seemed to be the most effective being that im under geared, but i could never get him below half hp with it as he would always cast healing.. never dipping below 75% hp.. half% was the best i could with all my big cooldowns, etc. then i decided to take a break for him and start a rogue, of which i blew through normal cuz i had the full arctic set and a decent rare bow later on that was super fast and had mana leech.. teleporting around and multishotting everything felt so good. then I get to the hell potion of nightmare, and the miniboss knight that guards the first staircase further down into the hellish dungeon comes charging at me and I was stunlocked. I literally emptied all potions in my belt while spamming teleport to no avail, I died...over and over and over again trying to kill this miniboss. He had cold damage along with a super fast charge attack to start things off, he didn't one shot me per se, but if he hit me once, there was no coming back from it. I tried putting on a bunch of hit recovery to no avail...I died so many times that I lost ALL of my gold to him inside the dungeon. Shit, at one point, he was guarding the entrance so that when I entered the crevice from town, I'd instantly die.. So what I had to do was enter another part of the dungeon, cast my golem(cuz u can't do it in town), then head in hoping he'd target the golem first lol. which yeah it worked. I did figure out a strategy though.. I mean...I figured it out immediately.. it was just.. still.. soooo hard. What I would do is teleport over a wall and shoot guided arrows down alongside the wall so that they'd curve back at him as he's coming around the corner, and as soon as he peaked around, I'd teleport to the other side, rinse repeat until he died.. he got low SOOOOOO many times and as soon as he'd peak, I'd get instantly charged and stunlocked...eventually though, I perfected the strategy and brought him down...but goddamn is that a stat check.. shit I had pretty damned good items.. i mean, yeah my bow kind of sucked at that point but still! D: Hard game is hard. Thinking I might need to take a bit and grind with my sorcerer soon.. gonna try and finish nightmare mode on my rogue tho first i think. sorc has the benefit of wearing a bunch of magic find while still blowing through the content, otherwise I'd just continue with the rogue..i mean...maybe if i find a really good bow idk I'd play the rogue instead, but its super doubtful. I don't count on good gear for the class dropping when I'm just running through it.. gotta farm for that.

    • @TheSuperRetroBros
      @TheSuperRetroBros  6 років тому +3

      Ahhhhh well, a lot of people recommended me to this Bezlebub Mod. I figured I'd stick it out. It didn't ruin the atmosphere too much because light radius still existed within the game.

    • @kite7529
      @kite7529 6 років тому +3

      Belzebub Mod doesn't force you to play on that screeen ratio. You can zoom in or out to please your taste. I like to put it at about the same distance as the original game.

    • @snuffeldjuret

  • @bsauced
    @bsauced 3 роки тому

    4:28 - Swinging and missing due to faulty hit detection and in game lagginess? Diablo has a “chance to hit %” that you could raise by increasing your dexterity stat. Wouldn’t that be the reason behind swinging and missing?

    • @TheSuperRetroBros
      @TheSuperRetroBros  3 роки тому

      I'm not sure, the game would occasionally jump an extra half second forward and it seems my swings would register as attacks towards spaces with nothing in them.
      It could definitely be chance to hit though.

    @aBanabis 4 роки тому

    update: finished nm mode with rogue(diablo was hard as shit on a rogue.. much more difficult than my sorcerer which was ez sauce...and i killed the risen hero! hmm it seems like the dungeons and mobs within are random.. like different mobs will spawn with different immunities/affixes etc. and this time the risen hero wasn't immune to lightning.. which.. i mean u can guess what happened. cast my two major cooldowns, the one that gives negative resistances to monsters and the slow time one and i just blew up a gigantic load of lightning in his face and he died instantly before even getting the chance to heal. lightning OP. ohh.. and i just currently finished the final floor of the caves on the sorcerer.. took a peak into the final dungeon to open the crevice, but i'm taking a break for now. I got a lot of quests lined up I gotta take care of right there before i enter hell on hell mode :P i love this mod though so much fun. very challenging.

  • @RetroAbandonWare
    @RetroAbandonWare 4 роки тому

    The first gripe that I have with belzebub is how they changed the elixir system to only give you a temporary stat boost for ten minutes instead of letting you just permanently increase the desired stat anymore. My second complaint is not being able to find good stat boosting rings and amulets that just boost stats with affixes such as Might, Power, Giants and Titans instead I keep getting just of the sky or of dexterity. Don't get me wrong I love the mod within itself otherwise. Just wished that the modders would have not have omitted them.

    I would love to see Blizzard remaster this game and even add some new content, such as removed quests and maybe add a plethora of new items to make it feel fresh. However, I don't want them to completely remake the game like that did with Warcraft 3...That was a terrible move.

  • @bumblebee2511
    @bumblebee2511 4 роки тому

    This reviewer is wrong regarding classes in vanilla D1.
    The classes are more than just "Early stat distribution".
    The classes:
    - Each started off with a different power; Warrior cab repair items for free, Sorcerer can recharge staffs, Rogue can disarm traps.
    - Have different stat caps, Warrior has a higher cap Vitality, Rogue has a higher cap Dexterity, ect.
    - Use weapons differently; Warrior's melee attacks are faster than Sorcerer or Rogue, Rogue fires arrows faster than Sorcerer or Warrior, ect.
    Pretty different all things considered.
