There was a period in the gaming industry where any game that Blizzard made available slowed down traffic. Weeks would be booked off of work, and the industry as a whole would freeze for a while to D2R Items admire what they and the Blizzard team had built.

Although that's not the case much nowadays, and a large portion of that renowned Blizzard team is no more in the game industry, for a valid reason, Diablo is a franchise that is significant. Through its long experience as a franchise, it's only the fourth mainline installment. Diablo 2 Resurrected can be a game that will make the industry take notice and stop by Blizzard again, but this time for the right reasons.

Some may be apprehensive about the idea of Diablo 2 Resurrected followers but whether they like their or dislike them The helpful characters have become an integral part of the action game's combat. I inquired with Blizzard what plans it has to include aides into Diablo 2 Resurrected, and while they didn't say too much but it appears that followers could join the roster at some point.Speaking with lead class Designer Adam Z. Jackson in the aftermath announcement of Diablo 2 Resurrected gameplay preview, I inquired whether the follower system will be closer to the one of Diablo 2 or Diablo 3 or Diablo 3 - if it existed at all.

If you're not aware, in Diablo 2 you would hire followers to descend upon the gates of hell with you, however when they died, you had to hire them again with cold, hard cash. There was a new follower in each zone. This means that there were some who were better than others.

This changed in Diablo 3, where instead hiring mercenaries, you got three different characters in the story's campaign. There was the Scoundrel Sorceress, and Templar, who represented the different categories of DPS tank, ranged DPS, and magical player respectively.In my Diablo 2 Resurrected adventure I only encountered friendly NPCs who stuck around for a few days then rode of into the sunset. When I asked Jackson how the game's follower function would work the answer was "for the first release version,, we will have a few locations within the story in which you'll see certain known NPCs accompanying you and helping in figuring out the what Lilith is doing throughout the universe.

"We do not have anything to declare about the Diablo-2 type follower you've hired – we're sticking to the campaign for the moment." Emphasis on the Diablo 2 Resurrected Items moment for now.
