Diablo II vs Diablo II Resurrected Cinematics Side by Side Comparison (Act 1 and Act 2)
With Diablo II: Resurrected, Blizzard is giving the original action RPG a major overhaul with new visuals and music, offering a more definitive take on the dark-fantasy adventure. The developers have released the first look at the remaster’s updated Act 1 and 2 opening cinematics, and we figured…
New ones are clearly better, people seem to trying very hard to fill the shortcomings of old cinematics with their imagination. It's such an extreme effort to "like" old one more, it is almost frightening. The same effort made this game real that's for sure, so it may not be so evil. Let them face the all bugged and imbalanced skill+item system that they hyped/missed so much!
Again this is something Blizzard was always capable. In game story telling ? Never good. Cinematics ? Always.
THEY CENSORED THE FREAKIN DWARF, LOL
Obviously the new is better since the graphics are superior but they missed a lot of details that was in the original and really helped build a great atmosphere. I don't know why they keep on changing stuff like that. Just remaster it and stop add/remove stuff. This game was one of the best ever made so stop messing with it.
There are certain aspect where the original looks better, especially some of Mariu's expressions. The Remaster of course looks good, it lacks at grabbing the fear of the Wanderer. Still good tho.
What happened to the dwarf/waiter? He is just a normal guy now…
Imagine if they made the actual game look this good lol
Marius looks like the coomer wojak.
Wish the white boarders in this video were black or dark gray, the white really kills it.
Old shit and expensive lol. Blizzard died. Rip.
Remember to support a company that censors sexy pixels but enjoys assaulting their female workers on the reg.
New Marius is simply dogshit, lack the depression pain and suffering.
there are so many changes for the worse
It looks like real life.
Also me in 2000: It looks like real life.
I’d take 50/50 honestly. The graphics are amazing here and there for looks, but for some damn reason….certain old scenes were better…can’t explain it. New tech can’t fix old history.
They added better graphics but the actions are muted, the old school one is more animated i get that character this new one feels very different
Awesome but i love the shadow of the lantern swinging when Marius was getting out
I am not impressed. Do the the ressurected cinematics look good? Yes. But the original have more emotion and soul to it, one could, and still can, feel what was going on there. The ressurected cinematic … generic at best.
The new Marius' voice doesn't match his "look".
Don't Buy this game unless you wanna wait 4hours in a Queue and then have a chance of it crashing and starting you back at the end of the line. 3 weeks of Major hours long Queues!! Stay away from this one. Sad to say but true.
After the succes of Arcane….. Maybe there is hope for this???
mmm, that new dark and blurry look….
The remaster just needs the original Marius' movements and it's perfect.
Everyone is praising the visuals, but forget about how incredible the sound design was for these cinematics.
I really like how they went about doing the remake of this game. I like how they aimed the remake to target the same audience that played the original game.
