I just got the Diablo III game (yes, I know, I'm a late-comer) and I need some help. My ladylove and I used to play DIablo II, and loved it; we've now each bought a copy of Diablo III, and the issue is this: With Diablo II, we were able to play together, through a router (she says; she's the computer-savant, I'm very much not), which let us essentially "privatize" the game. Worst case, if I remember rightly (it's been a while), we could set up a "public" game and set the maximum number of players at 2. Thing is, we're not unfriendly sorts, but we kind of like being "alone together". When we first got D II, we tried it online, with no restrictions...and quickly ran into "griefers". That didn't work out well.
Anyway, my question is, is there a way for us to set up the game so we can play together, but with only the two of us? We're each fervently hoping so. The old D II was one of our favorite things to do, and we'd love to get back to the fun we used to have. (I should mention that we recently upgraded our systems, to Windows 10, and D II won't run on our computers anymore, or we'd still be playing *that*. We're hoping that D III will let us get, essentially, back to the fun stuff.)
Thanks, in advance, for any help anybody might be able to give us, and thanks for letting me impose on your collective good nature with what might well be a dumb question.
