On battle.net the Diablo Prime Evil Collection is on sale for $20. I don’t really want to spend $70 on Diablo IV so I am considering this instead. Are the older games still worth playing?

I’ve played D1 and D2 in the early days and loved them. I am not sure they’d hold up today. I looked at D2R and while it hits the nostalgia part hard, I just could not get excited to actually play it. If you are really interested to know what it was like and it would mean something to you to play it, I’d say it could be worth it. My best Diablo experiences were unquestionably with D2.

I got into D3 very late and while I enjoyed my time with it, it didn’t hook me. I feel like I got my money’s worth for the time I spent with it but it didn’t hold up for me very well.

From my point of view, I think picking up D4 would be money better spent for what it is already and will likely become over time. D4 is pretty decent and while I have to admit I am a little bored with it it does seem to have a lot of potential. I did feel a bit bad about giving the company my money but I could not resist.
