Diablo 1

Does anyone have a screenshot of Diablo 1 in action. Ive only ever had D2 and i was curious to see what he looked like in the original.
 
sorry couldnt resist.. look at my homepage for screenshots!

when u killed the skeleton king(2nd pic) the char said "rest well king Leoric, ill revenge your death"

4th pic is light nova xplosion

In tristram you could talk with Odin or griswold, cain and the drunk guy
 
i tried but couldnt find anythings, plus my work has websense and blocks anything with "game". So even that link ^^ i cannot access. Nice try tho.
 
It still has very pretty graphics, awful res or not. Somehow everything looked very involving.

Although I didn't like the later level tilesets. I felt it was at its best in the early part of the game. I remember the first time I player D2 I was so pissed off that the quests are the same from game to game...

At least you can run in D2. That's quite possibly the worst thing about D1 - you have to walk everywhere.

All chars can get tele, and in town the walkspeed has been increased in later patches I think (or was is adding the xpack that did that?).

Well the warrior might struggle to get tele, dont know how high magic stat he can get before it's capped, but with some +magic items you should get enught to read the book (for learning spells and increasing their lvls you just read books, for each new lvl of a skill the magic req increases, and you cannot pump a stat to infinity, the capps for magic lvl differs between the chars).

I've never had tele on D1 before, but I can't say I have played it seriously since I bought D2 several years ago. Although I must say this discussion is tempting me to give it a go :shocked:

It was level 5. Very spooky, the very first time you step out of the familiar dungeons of level 4 to the catacombs of level 5.

I always shopped/found and kept +30 magic Rings, Ammys, 1h Weapons and sometimes Armors, just for that purpose, teaching a Warrior high level magics. IIRC the highest required Magic stat for any spell was capped at 255. A higher Magic stat was actually useful on a character, as it increased the damage of some/most spells, not just mana like Energy does nowadays...

I still remember the days, of my old Warrior in action. Grandfather Sword, Saintly Full Plate Mail (don't remember exact def, but it was HUGE for back then), Awesome Tower Shield of the Wolf (again, big defense and ~+45 life). Dual Rings of the Zodiac, +20 all attributes. Obsidian Amulet of the Heavens, ~35% resist all, +15 all attributes. Veil of Steel helm. I think that was it for gear, no belts/gloves/boots.

One of my favourite things to do was Flame Wave a group of monsters, and anything not killed in 1 hit was easy pickings for melee. Flame Wave rocked, as did Chain Lightning. Different CL, mind you, this one just shot 5+ normal Lightning bolts out from you, which were auto-target, instead of one bolt jumping between enemies like in D2.

Guardian (Hydra) was another uber skill. It's duration increased with it's spell level, so you could have 10+ of them up at once, all auto-target shooting things.

And who could forget Stone Curse... It was the only way my Sorcerer could defeat the Warrior of Blood, the boss of the Steel Tome quest to get from/to level 13/14 (can't remember which). Curse him, then chip away with my Wizardspike.

if i can recall correctly - "My blade screams for your blood, mortal. And by my dark masters it shall not be denied..."



 
I just installed D1 when I had to get the battlechest again. I've never played it before but yall are sure tempting me to try it out.
