The main difference between D2 and WoW, and the reason why I never picked up WoW, is:

D2: <looking for Windforce bow>
... killkillkill... hmm... killkill... Grandfather sword... killkillkill... high rune... kill... Harlequin Crest... killkillkill... okay, I give up. Hey look, I can now give that sword to my barb and sell the high rune for a Bramble!

WoW: <looking for Legplates of Wrath>
... killkillkill... hmm... killkill... soulbound druid shoulders... killkillkill... soulbound mage robe... kill... unusable enchanting recipe... killkillkill... okay, I give up. I bloody got nothing!!

The bad problem with preset drops is that there is usually only one thing you need, and if you don't get it, you get nothing at all.

If there is a quest item that has a 2% drop rate, and you get unlucky, and you end up having to kill 382 low level monsters before it drops, you've had no challenge, no fun, and you got no useful items at all.

In Diablo 2, not only are you fighting the highest level monsters (instead of monsters that cannot even hit you), but even if you don't get lucky and your target item doesn't drop, you get lots of other stuff along the way, if only just experience. You won't ever just 'waste' your time.
Nothing is impossible if you believe in it enough.
