I thought sorc was a gypsy. The paladin, maybe a crusader from middle east. At least thats what i thought back then.

But... them making the characters less revealing and more chunky killed it for me.

Seriously, avoid this cash-grab and get Grim Dawn or Path of Exile instead.

Or just gonna shamelessly shill for Project diablo 2/path of diablo/median XL, literally anything else if you need that fix.

Can definitely vouch for grim dawn/poe though but those are given.

Woah, never heard of any of those but Median XL looks pretty sick.

All these trash remakes and remaster to try to tug on out nostalgia.. the nostalgia that nerdy boys had back then. The nerdy boys the current industry shuns these days.

imo Paladin was always black - they just made him blacker.

The real question is how they have managed to fuck up basically every single model in one way or another.

He was voiced by Larry B. Scott (who is black) and in general the character model looked was probably based on Arab with a bit of African mixed in. In the game world it always felt like he was right at home in Lut Gholein.

Yep, you are right. I made a mistake, in regards to the Paladin! And to my astonishment, even the underboob of the sorceress is on the art in the manual!

I had to make a retraction video about it, showing the manual and admitting my mistake. (unlisted the video, and added a card on it saying that I was wrong) https://youtu.be/6bhGY7ur9xA

Appease? Dear Sir, they are appeasing themselves, not a crowd of wokesters.

I no longer believe that any changes are made to satisfy the blue checkmarks; rather, the institutions are plagued with individuals who push these changes internally.

Wasn’t the paladin already black in the original?

Looking at the images, and my memory, they don't seem to be that.

I think the Paladin was always black.

You are absolutely right.

  1. Afrodin sounds cool as fuck.

  2. I always thought sorceress was hindian.

What, you don't like dual-2H barbarian with maxed out lightning gems?

I made a mistake in regards to the Paladin. So I had to make a new video correcting myself. Added a card on the video showing the mistake I made, plus linking to retraction video.

My apologies on this.

I think it is important to own up to one's mistake, which is why I will not delete the video.

Can somebody pin this message?
