This was so long ago that all I remember vividly is the first time I ran into the butcher.
Still a kid, first game I bought with my own money.
It was nice crawling different dungeons and then…
“Fresh meat”
That was the first time in the game where I started to frantically try to just… get the fuck out.

Other things I remember in no particular order:

  • Fuck Lazarus
  • Cloning Godly Plates of the Whale
  • Mashing mouse buttons
  • Spamming potions

D2 is less of a clash for a modern player I think

Thanks for the memories. I remember taking turns playing this with my sister and freaking out when we first saw the butcher. Like just being able to use the mouse and keyboard was a challenge it was so scary.

Haha, I can see the sheer panic, scrambling to get away.
It’s been a while but I’m pretty sure I failed miserably at first.
Until you figure out he can’t open doors.
D3’s butcher didn’t have the same feel, almost comical, then again I was much older by then.

Playing online, over dial-up, it’s almost a miracle it even worked.
Good times.
