Old School Fun: Diablo 2; To Hell and Back Interest Check.


Recruitment


Back in the days of 3.0 D&D they released a Diablo 2 adventure following the second computer game called Diablo 2: To hell and back with a companion player guide called Diablo 2: Diablerie and I had so much fun GMing this game by first running the adventure(it goes up to act 4) then expanding beyond it to Act 5 and beyond til the PCs stood victorious over the ancient spirits of Hell as demigods.

Recently I was going through my old books and found these and remembered the nostalgic fun and thought of how much fun it would be to revisit those days, especially with my nowadays much better GMing skills.

This is strictly an interest check, not a recruitment thread, but I was wondering if anyone would like to join me in exploring and saving the world of Sanctuary first by playing the adventure path then expanding into a full out war between the PCs and Hell with high level adventures.

I doubt many have the old Diablo 2: Diablerie but we could just use Pathfinder rules for PCs if necessary.

Anyone interested in facing the Prime Evils and saving the world from the forces of Hell once more?

If enough people do I will prepare and run the game with a proper recruitment thread.


I never played any 3.0, but if you do go with a conversion to Pathfinder rules I’m game.

Hello Yasss!

I've been in love with Diablo since I first picked up the game for PC a few years back, and would be highly interested in a game. Definetly interested.


Fond memories of the PC game, and I imagine 3.0 would be relatively easy to convert to PF. I would certainly submit a character.

Interested as well!!


Would definitely be interested, especially if Spheres of Power/Spheres of Might were on the table?


Definitely, this could be good fun.

Not entirely sure yet what I would use rules wise other than the Pathfinder set. Mostly just seeing if folks are interested currently.


Interested, waging war against devils and demons is always fun!


Consider me interested

Hmmm ok, it looks like there is enough interest to run it. I'll pop a proper recruitment thread when I am ready.

Hmmm so the real question is should I spend the time to do a full pathfinder conversion?

That sounds like a fun project to me.

Would a full PF conversion include talents? If so ABSOLUTELY!


Probably close enough to convert as you go along I would think? And PBP does lend itself to that in that you have little chance of being rushed onto the next encounter without being ready. Plus you know, we would get to play sooner that way ;)

Hmmm, yeah I could probably do things that way, though I find it's better to be over prepared than under.

Either way at least now I can work on it without fear that noone will be interested in playing.


Interested as well. I think Diablo 2 has plenty of Class options that are similar to Pathfinder that so long as people are willing to somewhat stick to the Lore of Diablo 2, you'd be able to easily represent the game and fun.


"You have quite a treasure there in that Horadric Cube."


color me interested as well.


Is this happening? Otherwise I might run an instance of it myself. It'll be hack-and-slashy as all heck, with loads of magic items.


I'm certainly interested!

Silver Crusade

interested if we use PF rules.


Still interested :)

I've decided to do a full PF conversion so it will be awhile before I am fully prepared and ready to pop my recruitment thread.

In the meantime feel free to run your own Diablo game with my enthusiastic support.


Great! I myself have gotten caught up creating random loot tables, and kind of need to get those done before I can start the game.


I'd be interested in this game if it uses the Pathfinder rules, which it looks like it will.

Dot.


I went ahead and took you up on it, so there's a link to the recruitment thread! Yass, you're also very welcome to join if you like. I know I tend to run the kind of games I would want to play in myself, and maybe you're the same.

Thanks. =)
