SHORT VERSION:
I'm in my early twenties and I currently play an Ice Sorceress in Single Player. Hello!!
---
I was looking for an introduction thread like some other forums seem to have, but here it seems like everybody is so special that they must make their own introduction topicSo, here I am!
At the time of this post (August 2012), I'm in my early twenties. I was interested in Diablo II when it was first released but didn't purchase it at the time. I rediscovered it a couple of years ago and made my first serious character (I think v.1.12) and finished the Normal difficulty.
Last month, I made another character, an Ice Sorceress (currently Level 33), that is virtually identical to my first one, except that I depend on a staff for Teleport. I'm currently on the last quest in Normal - I'm waiting to stock up on Full Rejuvenation Potions before I fight the final boss. (And I hit a slight snag when I realized that I allocated my stat points all wrong, and claimed my reset from Akara. I feel like such a crook
)
I like Single Player a lot more than Battle.Net (tried it for an hour and didn't like it) because I'm a solitary person and player by nature (I don't even use a mercenary, because I feel that the game is more "mine" if my character goes through it all by herself). I'm sure I would have played by myself there anyway, and I greatly dislike the idea of losing characters after they're killed off. I don't want to work so hard on developing a character and not even have a backup of it! (My first character wasn't hardcore, but every time she died, I would reload a backup file. Because I found the idea of my character recovering a corpse of herself to be kind of disturbing)
I think I'm somewhat unusual because unlike a lot of people here (from the posts I've seen, anyway) I don't plan on getting to Level 99, or beating all three difficulties (although that would be nice), or getting specific runewords or set items or anything like that (I just pick up whatever magical/rare/set/unique equipment I find and "upgrade" if I find it suitable). My main goals are to find all my preferred Unique equipment and to get to Level 49 so I can max out Frozen Orb. And maybe finish Nightmare, but that's not too important to me. (Compared to most of you, I'm really not very ambitious)
I really like this forum because it's very nice to able to read posts from people who like the game as much as I do
In conclusion, I'm glad to be here and I'd like to say hello to you all. Hello!!

Good luuuuuuck
) I may write some back entries, just to be able to start from the "beginning." For a player who's never gotten past Normal (wow, that makes it sound like I've had a whole bunch of characters XD), I have a lot of stupid little things I can mention. (For example: for both of those files, I had to ENCOUNTER FIRST, and kill, a Zombie or Quill Rat - preferably a Zombie - in Blood Moor, before killing anything else. In short, not a Fallen. If I went out to Blood Moor and saw a Fallen first, I would exit the game and copy and paste my backup file. Why? Because there weren't any Fallen in Blood Moor in the version I played ten years ago, that's why! >=D)
