Apparently they are remastering it! Both, 1 and 2. That would be awesome.

I feel that...
For me it was Diablo 2 (the last good Diablo imo).
I plan to get Path of Exile 2 as soon as it's finished (early-access atm).
It seems to be the spiritual successor of old-school Diablo from what I have seen.
And yeah, I would definitely also get a remaster of Balduars Gate 1+2 if it happens.

The new dark armor is what it is, there's no choice in that they're all the same samsung panels.

Matte is not good for oled, especially qdoled, because it the blue pixel lightpipe which looks purplish in bright rooms..

Just purchased and started to play few of mine good old games: Heretic and Heroes of Might and Magic II.

It is so nice to be able to play them on current hardware. There are some compatiblilty issues, but some of them are fine.

Played so far:

-The Thing Remastered
-Return to Castle Wolfenstein
-Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 1
-Project IGI 1
-Project IGI 2
-Heretic
-Heroes of Might and Magic II

There's something special about revisiting those old games. Modern hardware can brute-force most of them, but getting them running properly sometimes feels like a game of its own. Project IGI and Return to Castle Wolfenstein bring back a lot of memories.
