Description
Just interested in seeing how many of you guys will be playing 'classic' D2, that is, D2 Resurrected but the pre-Expansion version?
What will be the strangest thing for someone going back to it having never played anything but LoD?
For anyone wondering, yes, pre-LoD D2 Resurrected will be available. Confirmed here:

I would only play classic if it was an older pre-synergies patch. It feels very wrong playing classic with skill synergies, and also kills off a lot of the old viable classic builds.
I'll be playing Classic but I'm sort of with Selexin as it is going to feel a bit cheapened. I'm hoping they adjust for us purists. The only reason I'll be playing LoD is because of friends. My heart is with the rares and the limited options. I love Vanilla WoW, old school D3 with the Inferno difficulty, and so on. Not that anything is wrong with the games being updated, but I'm an old soul at heart. I miss the days where games were made and there was no difficulty slider or cohesiveness. Just plug and play and go.

I stopped gaming after season 3 in D3. I went hard though, when I came back to D3 during season 22... I got to 450 hours of playing in 2 hours. It was a whole new game.
One of the best things about Classic and the small stash is you don't have to worry about charms and runes and such. It still sucks it won't be bigger but it's not that bad. I kinda liked muling anyway. I felt like it brought people together and gave an opportunity for platonic trading and discussion.
WW Barb is a great class and you really don't need a lot of gear to be successful. I think one of the best parts is in later patches the Oblivion Knights no longer cast Iron Maiden, so you have almost no fear of Death aside from running out of mana.
A lot of players end up using Bonesnap well into their 80s or 90s because it performs better than any Executioner Sword or Ancient Axe, and only a Martel de Fer above 250 top-end outperforms it. You can find one in Normal and just WW away for literally weeks and find tons of great gear.
Lances have the best potential for damage, but without a bonus durability stat, they are quite annoying having only 25 durability.

Iām sold! Spin to win baby!
Also your icon isnāt lost on me, itās perfect.
I hadn't even considered playing vanilla D2. I remember the expansion opening up 800x600 resolution and never looked back. Not having my inventory full of charms actually seems kind of nice...

The charms drive me mad. I want them all, but they want all my space.
