Quote:I got both D1 and D2 very near launch day and I simply don't recall either of them being too bad off but that was so long ago now I don't trust my memory.Oh ho ho...the Diablo 2 launch was horrifying. Don't remember how it would take sometimes up to a minute or more to pick up an item? The lag was game-breaking at launch. I was in college at the time and I remember playing at 3:00 AM because that was the only time the servers weren't lagged to hell and back, pun intended.
After a month or so, things got ironed out generally, but Blizzard was totally overwhelmed by the network traffic and lag conditions at launch. They later claimed it was a "good learning experience" they could take forward into WoW. Oops.
