In effect, it's convenient for them them to "dump" those titles here, on GOG (other thing is that we're more than happy to have those games here).īut for Diablo 2, which is sold by them and (if I remember correctly) had already announced HD re-release, they're rather going to sell it in their store only. Would GOG users join other players on Battle Net, or would we get our own separate GOG server? In my opinion (at this point) - very unlikely.Īlready released title and two planned have one thing in common - they're not sold on Blizzard's/ store, and Blizzard is not planning to make any remaster/remake of them. Then you are set with CD-less LAN plan on all four machines.Īlso note that there is Diablo 2 ("Classic") and Diablo 2 Expansion: Lord of Destruction ("LoD") and this applies to either version.ChrisGriffin: Even more so, how likely it would be to be able to play it online, aka Battle Net? So what may make sense, even if you have the old version, is install whatever version on the 4 machines (it takes a while) and then update to the current version by connecting to or via their downloadable installer. You would need 4 different CD keys to play all four of you online via, but for local play via a LAN or via TCP/IP play, you can have the same CD key used during install and there is no need to have it in the drive when playing if you have done the "full install." So if it is one of those versions, you could still do it if the computers are nearby (same room) but it may be a hassle.īut the current version 1.13 doesn't require the CD to be present each time you launch the game. Older versions, such as 1.10 and 1.11, still required the CD to be present in the drive during gameplay, at least at the start. It may depend upon which version of Diablo 2 you are playing.
