On Lava Skeletons: -"trying to hit you" -*Is visibly shown trying to miserably escape on the other side*
At number 20 the quote from Diablo is actually a reference for Diablo 1 when the character that you are playing enters the catacombs and says: "The smell of death surrounds me" Interesting one there...

Interestingly, A game from similiar time frame, Age of Empires 2, receives new updates every so often and got 2 new expansions, including the infamous Roberto Barbosa African Kingdoms and has a thriving community. It's not impossible to revitalize Diablo 2 since new content would be dirt-cheap to make and the game still has an active fan-base. Imagine a Diablo 2 Remaster, if you will, with new content, updated graphics, revitalized multiplayer and no microtransactions, lootboxes, DLC's, preorder bonuses, thus greatly improving Blizzard's image in the eyes of the public.

#6 they're not trying to hit you, they're trying to climb out of the lava and are pulled back in. it's actualy really not rare at all and happens all around the river of flame map and it happens at fixed (short) intervals
2:25 They are not trying to hit you, they are just trying to get out of the pit.

I found out about those hidden rooms in Act 1 like four years ago. I was very surprised. Lovely how you can still find new stuff in this game.
Great video man! Its amazing that people keep discovering new stuff even in 2017!
Nice upload! I knew about the secret rooms in the Cathedral because I usually checked everything when I played D2. I also knew about the skeletons in the lava.
I remember playing D2.. after a few weeks you have about 2 or 3 characters and then the rest are all called Mule Muler or Muley lol
I remember when I was new to D2 and traded 8 soj for a shako. In return I got a gemmed cap with an emerald. Yes I fell for it and I was pissed

Love how you say "Moooo" in the most nonchalant way lol.
I came here expecting to be told 20 things I already knew. Looks like i only knew about 12 of the 20. Nice work! :)
sooo cool!! would love to see a video on those secret rooms in the monastery!!! Xtimus for the win!!
The skeletons in the lava is most likely tormented victims desperately but futily trying to get out of the torment that is the lava
About the sound, the sound feature of bob the robber game on hudgames is also a clear one to hear of as it really sounded much absolutely in a good way..
Actually got me on 2 of them. I'm impressed.
Cool video, thanks!
"an evil force" is not the actual name of the cathedral windows, it just means that the actual name couldn't be found by the game (like missingno). I also think that the skeletons in act4 don't attack, but there is something similar in mephisto's room with critters that actually do attack (but I'm not sure I remember this one right).
The Baal clone cannot teleport while the original can. Buriza-do Kyanon is a Japanese transliteration of Blizzard Cannon.
Wow i actually did not know a few of these. have a like
this was nice... GJ !!!!!
After playing Diablo II pretty much since it was originally launched, I have just recently noticed that at the end of the river of flame / entry to Diablo's sanctuary the statues would turn their heads to always face the character..! I know.. amazing huh? 😛
i gotta check out the unreleased tracks
great video
Crafting with the Horadric Staff - mind blown...
Nice video man I like it
I do Remember that one of the items that also changed was the Stormshield, back in an earlier version was different, had different design and abilities
Holy shit, amazing vid dude
Thank you. Great things. :)
What about that "blocked" entrance to the monastery in tamoe highlands on act 1? It also had a different map name that I can't remember.

It's been forever since I've played D2. I did know about the stones of Jordan being used as currency though because that's how it was when I played it.
Wish I had that Azurewrath drop after 1.08 but with that unique look - worth it.
hello. how can I activate ladder rw into single player ? Option with ..Runes.txt file - didn't help.. :(
Act 5.There are two Barbarians below Larzuk,one wandering about and the other cooking some meat.The one wandering about will follow you if you go down to that little area. I am playing Path of Diablo mod and the 2nd barbarian seems missing so I wonder if he is removed in more recent patches or if it's just the mod.
One thing I didn't know; I was playin D2 with the great himself. That's my toon in the Diablo fight at the end of ur vid man, Mememagic. Shadilay brother.

Uchiha Madara PlugY doesn't change the game in itself, it just allows experiencing online content in singleplayer mode and it allows you to collect your items and share them between your characters. In my opinion it's the perfection of Diablo II but i understand if you want to play the game in its original state
Please make more of these after the Remaster comes out
that cube conversion works on other unique items as well
Interesting Video .. I'd like to see more of this kind of Video.
I knew about the secret rooms in the monastery :)
That Deckard Cain rap was money
great video, but only like 3 things i didn't know... the very last one being one of them.
Makes sense considering Act I in D3 was literally just a playthrough of the orig Diablo...
excellent video! a lot of stuff I didn't know and I consider myself a die hard fan. Maybe not anymore. lol
Me: sees the title Me: Nah i know evryithing about diablo Me: Watches the vidoe Me: Well i atleast i know 19 new things about diablo
ahh good times
Could you imagine being the person to figure out that Den of Evil quest? seeing "Monsters remaining: 666" would've given me big goosebumps !
06:10 - loving the outtakes.
Been playing d2 for so long and never had any clue about secret monastery compartments or skeletons floating out from River Of Flame.
The link for secret rooms is wrong. It just goes to another picture of the Frostburns.
How to operate or open chat gem?
oh my god i will never be able to look at stamina potions the same
SoundChaosDebug
Soj’s were currency during LOD as well. I was like 13 but I remember them going for almost nothing then being the most wanted item over night. I think the rust storm it was called got rid of a bunch of them so the value went up. That was all during lod I never played before lod
Soooo....more explanation on the chat gem? Knew it would do that, still don't know why.
My favorite game of all time and a few of these were a surprise. Interesting video and if u find more secrets please share. +1
Number 21 for you:Geed from rogue encampment is from diablo 1.he escaped tristram and came to rogue encampment.He was the travelling or just a merchant and still is :)
2:21 Lava skeletons - I would say, that the skeleton is not trying to hit you, it is trying to climb out of the lava (out of his suffering). It is hell after all.
Actually Blizzard North started Flagship Studios to work on Hellgate: London which was going to be D3 first/third person.
that azurewrath sword one tripped me out great job hopefully you do #MD2GA

Maybe most of you already knows but beside the barb only the assa has a unique animation for the skills leap and leap attack.

And the arctic blast skill uses the jumping animation as well therefore the amazon disappears during cast while the barb and the assa casts this skill mid-air. And the unique sword Frostwind gives you this bugged skill. What a shame.
Here is something I don't think you know. I got the "Evil Force" glass to spawn in a game with a druid and noticed that while I was around the glass the spirit which took damage during a fight would not heal up. I stayed a while to make sure of this effect and sure enough that glass seems to prevent summons from being able to heal up.

Guild thing was a great idea, still is, I want it, like now.
How to play this game online without conecting to battlenet? Using Blizzard battlenet gateway editor?
"Soj for currency prior to Expansion was released and 40 of them trade for a Windforce bow." Windforce is an expansion item. But soj were still currency even up til patch 1.09. Then hrs replaced it. (And d2jsp of course.) Windforce was good back then though.
You should upload an entire "soundchaosdebug" recording :P
This is a great video! although at first i was like "yeah i knew she's an assassin, duh"
1 Thing I didn´t know about Diablo 2. Thx 4 Diablo´s Voice.
This brings back memories. A unidentified Wind Force sells for 40 SoJ. If you id’ed and the stats weren’t good, it sold for 30 or 35. I used to bot farm for a bit and found a Wind Force. Sold it for 40 SoJ. My first Diablo 2 sales
One thing you didn't know about this video: there's Might and Magic VII music during the last fact ( I think )
only 2 that i allready knew, pretty good
The second expansion named Salvation with the two extra classes and the guilds idea would be cool to be added to Diablo 2. Just like the idea of a remaster is great also.

Architecture is too old unfortunately.
somethings you didn't know. on uswest you could get hex charms. 90 STR, 90 sex, 90 vit. small charms. also came in an energy version. They were the trade value over sojs in 1.09. also had white gloves and boots. That gave 90 all stats 90 ias, 90 fhr, and run walk. on useast. They had occyrings. Which was an Oculus orb mixed with an soj ring. this was my favorite. also had ith blades and zephry bows. look them up for more info.
SOJ as ingame currency and being duped often is common knowledge among D2 players
I knew about the BAAL type thing, but i can not for the life of me remember how I figured it out back then
Knew only about #17 here...found it out in one of my earliest runs by dumb luck.
What about the easter eggs in this game ?
Need an soj? Nightmare andariel runs with a fire sorceress. Do those for 2 hours.
What about the beds in act 2. They drop loot. And if you look at 100% of an act it will drop the same gear if you save and exit. Letting you get the same greens over and over
A rap song feat Deckard Cain? Now THAT'S something I didn't know...LOL!
From game archives, Natalya, after you kill Mephisto, she says that she got a mission In the northern lands.
