Talk:Diablo (Game)

Diablo is not an RPG; so I changed it. --Jawboot 00:19, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Pictures
This article badly needs some screenshots. Right now it's really dull. And what's up with refereces, they're all messed up.Danrr 14:24, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * You're absolutely right. But, where would we get those pics. By the way, you're doing a great job. Hope you stay and contribute like you are doing. Cheers from the Mobokill 15:59, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I found my brothers old Diablo CD in his room. :). Now I can make screenshots, I hope, and was wondering what kind of screens were needed? Dan (talk) 18:35, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ahh. Look at the message above. Memories... OK, Good. Now we need screens of the title screen, the character screen, the three characters name them warrior, rogue and sorcerer for generalization, the starting location and the cathedral outdoors and indoors pics. Hope you can manage those. They're easy. And you're still doing a great job, even after a month. Heh heh. "D3 Act I, and 4 classes complete.

I have a problem with taking screens of D1. They come out a jumbled mess of black and green.- Dan (talk) 11:07, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Info
There is not much info on Diablo I in this wiki. At least not when compared with the Diablo II info. There isn't even a walkthrough for Diablo I.

Difficulty
How can I create a Nightmare-difficulty game in Single-player? (I have a Mage who defeated Diablo.) --129.13.186.4 14:15, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

To restart the game with your character's advanced stats intact?
I remember that I could do this, but the last time I played Diablo was in '01. How do I do that again? --ENG 07:26, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Graphics
"A bug that is only noticeable on latter-day computers is that there is not an option to change your screen resolution settings nor the number of colors viewable in-game. Moreover, the colors appear very psychedelic since the 32-bit color-rendering graphic system on newer computer systems causes the 256-color scheme of the game to falter miserably."

Is there any way at all to fix this? :( 63.225.146.137 21:51, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

Release date dispute?
While it's true that Blizzard only publicised the release in January 1997, the full retail version of the game hit store shelves and was available to buy on 31st December, 1996. This is acknowledged by David Brevik himself and even Blizzard celebrated the 20th anniversary on December 31st, 2016. Their own official timeline still has it falling in December 1996. The copyright in the printed media on the original CD-ROM is (c) 1996. smurfy (coms) 09:12, August 2, 2020 (UTC)

 * If you have sources, then edit the article and add your references. If someone objects, they will need to discuss it here and provide their own sources.
 * Reverted all Qa12's edits that changed it to January 1997 and referenced this discussion in the edit summaries. Will hunt out an original game CD insert image for copyright to insert full refs on the page(s). I only have a 2001 CD-Rom re-release which does still show the 1996 copyright but I would prefer the original. smurfy (coms)  09:43, August 4, 2020 (UTC)
