Hell no
Had it as a kid and loved it, co-op was so much fun. I’m sure it’s gimped compared to the PC version but I never knew better as I only ever played it on PS1. Used to hang out in town just to stay a while and listen to the Tristram theme again and again.
Why is the PS1 port harder than PC?
No but it looks decent in longplay videos
I tried to but walking around feels horrible. I hate click-to-move games which is why I have zero interest in playing diablo otherwise, but this shit is even worse
I played it earlier in the year. Beat it too! I enjoyed it, but by the end my thumb was tired of mashing the attack button.
Yes, and I loved it. I used the magician. Was pretty fun, especially when I found a book that gave me a certain number of no magic cost casting hydra heads that shoot fire. I places like 20 or 30 of them at the same time during the diablo fight and fricked him up pretty good, lol.
better than pc version
Yeah, at least I had one of those multi memory cards, as this game is one of those memcard killers
>rent Diablo PS1
>Only have the one memory card
>don't want to delete anything so have to beat game in one session without dying
>multi memory card
Yeah...
>friend has PS1 and Diablo
>parents get him multi-page memory card so him and his brother could each have a save game
>we start playing co-op
>get a few levels deep
>suddenly the page is wiped, save is gone
>rinse, repeat at different depths
>apparently every time they change the page, there is a 10% chance of wiping the page it was on
>every time his brother switches to his save, chance it wipes out our save
>they use card for other games as well, so pages get cycled through more than a few times in between sessions
>we have replayed the first half of the game dozens and dozens of times
>finally manage to make it to Diablo, kill him in three hits since we went all in on buying his magic-user Fireball books
>third fireball kills me at the same time it kills Diablo
>we get pissed off at the 30 second video ending after all the struggle we went through to reach it, and how much of a push-over Diablo was after so many harder battles prior to him
It was a weird feeling. Cathartic about finally finishing, disappointed at how small the reward was.

It was neat on my PSP before the decompile port for 3DS and Vita.
Wish I had this game when it was relevant though, I imagine drinking some beer and co-oping the game on the couch is some titular fun, that's been lost in this internet endowed age.
I can remember seeing my brother and two friends with school issued laptops playing together on a LAN, and thinking it was peak gaming.

Me and a friend of mine still get down on gauntlet 64 once in a blue moon.
I really love Gauntlet Dark Legacy, I have it on Xbox and Gamecube. I got in a session with an old friend before he died. Game is blessed.
I have the iso but the idea of playing it on a tiny handheld with no mouse or keyboard frankly makes me sick
I did. Finished the game with my mother. Saving the game would use about 10 slots while saving your character was 2 or so, so we only saved our characters. Took us more than a long time to finish it since she couldn't play it everyday. But it was fun. This game and Soviet Strike are her favorite PSX games.
I played a ton with my little sister it’s her all-time favorite game besides Dr. Marion on NES. That’s cool that your mom was into it. We used to do the same thing with the character saves. We also felt like geniuses when we figured out that one character could drop all their gold/gear, have the other pick it up, save that character but not the one who dropped and then restart with extra gold and duplicate gear to sell and repeat til we were rich.
I played it on my PSP. You have to save your character AND you have to save the world state. Both take fricking forever and if i I recall correctly take up a lot of memory card slots.
