as Blizzard gave us gender choice now, Barbie males would attack not with Love Spree but with - as Jay WIlson said about some of the early mana orb revision - Balls of Fury.
After all, "there is nothing better than playing with your friends" and using Love Spree and Balls of Fury attacks altogether for cooperative benefits.

Feb 28, 2010Mordor posted a message on Overhaul Diablo II with Median XLFunny thing about popularizaing mod thru making it overpowered and less difficult. My experience showed that the easier the gameplay is, the dumber the end users. Good thing I don't have to SELL it, so I don't really care about the popularity and can concentrate on the quality instead of flashy effects.Posted in: News
I think if people don't play a difficult game because the experience is not fun enough by itself. Balancing it well and creating satisfying rewards for battle itself would do it. D2 seems to be created as a pure grinding game from the start, so there's no real satisfaction in killing, unless you're about to nuke some uberboss. Those are the consequences of the initial gamedesign. -
Feb 20, 2010Mordor posted a message on Music of Diablo IIIIn D2 music was worse than in D1.Posted in: News
Regarding New Tristram music from D3 - I think it's amazing, I love it. But I really hate world of sanctuary track -too epic and orchestral. Orchestra sounds out of place when it comes to Diablo atmosphere.
And if I'd be voting for the best Diablo 1/2/3 track ever - I'd pick Catacombs from D1.

Apart from this orchestral worldmap track, D3 music is very promising - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

They were outsorted, so don't expect much from them

I could have included this in the thread about The Hell mod, but mainly I'm starting this new thread for those who love music from original Diablo.
I am not a composer myself, but I'm definetely Necromancer'minded in real world, which means that if I can't do something personally, I find allies who can instead.
Me as a head of this project, and several composers are working in this direction: creating more Diablo-like music. Or rather, music which rings with original Diablo world, something that becomes its unique atmosphere.
We haven't achieved much by this time. But we have something to show already. It's been around 7-8 months that we got involved in composing, and I'm planning for much more. Those who will feel hooked by this material might want to stick around our project, because there will be more of this in future.
Now, I'd like to introduce to you some of our recent achievements - music that made it to some modes of The Hell, as well as some other outsorted exclusive music that no one but me has heard ever.
This is not all we've got, mind you. It's approximately 10% of the material. It includes themes for Cathedral, Catacombs, Menu, Town, Caves and Credits.
I believe (and hope) that every true fan of original Diablo will be glad to hear it.
I'm co-author for the most of these, but the actual composers are: Raphael Reed, Ben Wallace and Kirill Polyanskiy.
Enjoy!

Health leech is needed ONLY if the game balance assumes so. In The Hell I made it so that players regenerate life and mana, and regeneration speed depends on high high Vitality and Magic attributes are. This proves to be an excellent passive leech, which doesn't ruin balance, yet solves the problem of having to heal with potions all the time.
Regarding the battle itself, how much you're hurt depends on how you play and stats combined. Armor class determines how often you're hit. DFE determines how well the damage is reduced (or sometimes - increased). It's about balance also. Things like DFE and AC values are pure data and are adjustable simply, a modmaker shoud be smart enough to do that.
I modified gold data in year 2006, back then I didn't even bother documenting my changes. So, there are no clues to it now. I might search for it, but it would show Hellfire 1.01 address anyway. I think it's no use to you.

However, part of this demon's legs is colored black, which, as far as I remember, wasn't the case originally - they were (very) dark red. Which also looks not like red, but pretty dark, without creating a feeling that it's too dark.

all TRNs just have to be picked very carefully
regarding that white colors: they used to be pure black originally (RGB data 000000h in .PAL file), but got converted to white in the process of extraction/conversion
