Hello,
We should create a discord community or IRC.
I also started another thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo2/comments/1jqikd2/comment/mlu2pxh/?context=3
It is not just about vanilla Diablo2 LOD, I play a plethora of old Diablos starting from Diablo 1, hellfire, through all kinds of Diablo 2 LOD patch levels plus some custom mods like this Zyel.
The community is quite dead unfortunately. There are 2 diablo based discords, one is for devilution X (diablo 1 modern mod), this runs on new pcs with Win11, I would not consider them as a "retro" community, no retro discussion there.
Another diablo2 discord, mostly russians, regardless that they have plethora of mod channels there I just gave up trying to find players because nobody was interested.
Anyway I always go for quality, not quantity ... if we find 4 players we can play once per week couple of hours that itself would be a great success (EU CET time zone but surely we can find something overlapping from wherever you are).
Playing Diablo 2 on the official battle.net (if this thing is still operated by Blizzard) is a HUGE waste of time as they delete your character if you don't login for 2 months, then what on earth is the point of playing when they destroy your work? I still do have all my Diablo characters and I play them until Today.
So if you are interested (and others who reading this thread), leave a contact detail here (email, discord, telegram, irc) or pm it to me.
I also have my own bnet server PvPGN on my LAN, we can play on this as well, I can make it public. Or with Diablo2 just direct IP play, we just need 1 player for server with a public ip or port forward or we all join Hamachi and play it that way.
