    This isn't just a game, it is art. The fact that it can still be enjoyed today is a testament to that.

    *Necromancer visits the pits of hell* Look at me, I'm your master now
  • @Cheesecake17345
    The best thing about diablo is, this series of games managed to make clicking on a figure until it falls and spills blood fun...for over hundreds of hours...
  • @flyingthor2650
    Just started playing again, love how D2 always makes me cime back..played it when i was 11.. then stopped for a while picked it.back up when I was 18/19..stopped again and now 22 and back in the game. Love the nostalgia and great gameplay!

    I used to be a Necro in D2 but i NEVER did this. So psychedelic. I really love this movie. Chapeau!
  • @justaguy5934
    I just found this video... And i remembered back in the days when I used to play Diablo 2.... Man... It's just beautiful
  • @FlockOfHawks
    It's such a shame one can only LIKE clips like these, i'd love to be able to LOVE it!
  • @ZachWasHere
    LoD was 7 when this video released it turns 20 next year time flies man
  • @andre83310
    Kick ass... I liked necro too. Don't know why people say that amazon was the strongest one. Didn't play that much to know.
  • @blackchaos853
    That's surprisingly effective, dam now I miss my summoner.
  • @bigtimeestonia
    Try that in real uber tristram, where there are minions :)
  • @h4x0y
    Diablo is a game that's not so much about the story or the adventure. For the advanced player, it's all about character building, making yourself extremely strong over time with stats, skills and items. Besides, gameplay is really well balanced and fast paced and it has a very dark atmosphere. It's really a one of a kind, other games fail to get this feeling. (I'm not saying other games suck, they have their own qualities)
  • Cool video! I did an uber with my buddy years ago online and it was infinitely harder than this run. Online, the ubers summon a ridiculous amount of monsters from the ground to F with you. Makes it impossible to step away from your summon pack to watch them work.
  • @tristanlist
    what is with the positioning and behavior of the three ubers. everything else seems fine, including the single player stash, and the gear is OK. But the ubers are way out of position to begin with and they are not spamming minions, not seriously, even though they are just off-screen (which is when they prefer to do it)
  • @Mannujou15
    i miss those days when you just had that first feeling of playing diablo 2 , there was so many servers ( online ) all were full , then finally found the game named act 1 start or something , and then you all together killed bad guys and stuff, all these diablo runs and baal runs . oeh.. i miss them :(

    Necro Summoner is way too overpowered omho. Finished on Normal and currently on Act 4 on Nightmare difficulty I died only once (in Normal difficulty :D) since I got stuck (gotta love the stupid pathfinding of summoned creatures when going through narrow tunnels -_-) and some shit exploded multiple times right in my Necro's face. The fact is that putting all points in the Skeleton disciplines, some in the Golemns (mostly from items though; only the clay golemn is worth it due to it slowing effect, which combined with a bunch of cold skeleton mages and Decrepify is like pushing the pause button on a boss and simply pounding it till it dies without even taking a single HP from dmg or waste a single potion) and a single point for the Decrepify branch is enough to kick ass all the way. And this is my like 4-5th time playing this game. LOL Got my lvl 3 corpse explosion + lvl 4 amplify dmg from my wand and there you go - you can simply sit and watch how your XP bar is filling up. XD Btw Act 2 merc (I do enjoy the Defense type since it boost the durability of all my summons quite a bit but maybe Offensive type is not bad either) is a must for a Necro summoner I think. The thing I very much dislike is the amount of garbage items you have to go through in order to prevent yourself from skipping something cool. Seriously, I got my bone wand in Normal difficulty Act 2 or 3 I think and I'm still using it since I was unable to find anything better. It is also extremely disappointing what drops I get from mini and major boss fights in Nightmare difficulty...Complete and utter garbage I'm telling you. :-/ I also noticed that with Necro Summoner I'm able to level up much faster. The other heroes I've started playing with (Barb with dual axe wielding, Druid Summoner and a Druid Lycanthrope build) finished Normal difficulty with like 3 lvl or so behind my Necro summoner. Weird... Anyways though overpowered it's totally worth playing a Necro Summoner. Put all your stat points in Vitality and Energy, in Strength only enough to carry decent armor, stay behind your summoned minions and cast amp dmg or decrepify all the time. LOL Although I have only the lowest max of skeletons (8 normal and 8 mages) it's a gorgeous sight when your army of corpses collides with the enemy lines and starts wiping the floor with them. It reminds me of that amazing scene in LoTR The Return of The King, when the Rohirrims cavalry sliced the orcs' lines like knife cutting butter on the field in front of Minas Tirith.

    Great video! You should definitely implement corpse explosion more into your summon nec arsenal. Its an incredibly useful skill for taking out massive groups of enemies at a time. It would really help out when you're collecting all of your summons (revives especially).
  • @PJxpanterx
    Curses doesn't stack, spamming amp damage 10 times in a row does nothing.
  • @NovaGamingVids
    This game was simply something otherworldy... Diablo I and Diablo II were awesome. I posted a video response with the soundtrack from Rogue Encampment because every time I hear it I just want to clear the game all over again. This game marked my childhood.
