I am so jealous of you getting to play Diablo 2 for the first time. Savor it don’t rush you will never get that feeling back. Do you plan on doing the original on a CRT or resurrection?
an expansive mod for original D2 with online multiplayer
No mods are required to play D2-LoD multiplayer.
If you decide against resurrection and go for the original, I would suggest to also get the Lord of Destruction expansion right away. It not only includes two additional character classes, additional monster classes and weapons but also allows you to play on higher resolution
Project Diablo 2 is a pretty vanilla version of Diablo 2 LoD. Yes, it rebalances.skills and items, and adds corruptions and endgame maps, but there’s no new skills. For a complete overhaul, you want MedianXL.
That said, I’d still forego both and go with D2R. Modding is coming along, finally. After a regular playthrough or eighteen (6 classes × 3 difficulties), give Diablo 2 ReModded a try.

Playing Diablo 2 is one of my favorite gaming memories. I’m excited for what’s ahead for you

yeah I have played both resurrection is great. I even enjoyed the controller controls on my steamdeck and went back and forth with my PC no issues.
Imagine being so patient you were just now cracking d1 open. That was your “new game”.
That person would be our god

Glad to hear it! Diablo II will rock your world next. I still play it occasionally and I get addicted for a few weeks.
If you have the opportunity to play through D2 with a friend I highly recommend it.
