Currently I am playing Diablo 1 (yes the first one from 1996). It is probably a classic though.
Had a lot oft fun playing it via Devilution[1], the open source reversed project. Works like a charm on Linux and has some decent improvements like play/run-speed, a shared storage for collected items at the woman in town and other useful tweaks.
Did not find the
Obsidian ring of the zodiac
yet, but I'm trying pretty hard :-)
Maybe it was before your time, but Diablo was absolutely huge in its day. Like, "top 10 for the 1990s" huge.
Created (or at least established or set the benchmark for) the action RPG genre, spawned clones and imitators, and has multiple triple A sequels.
Left a HUGE footprint, in other words.
I was part of it, but some of these "blockbusters" don't become classics. I played diablo A LOT these days (let alone having jarulf's guide to beat the math, just havin' fun)
