While the remaster of Diablo 2 gave fans the nostalgia pop they were hoping for, its launch has been far from heavenly. Since the first day it arrived the game has been mired in server outages and matchmaking problems with fans beginning to lose patience. After taking steps to rectify the game\u2019s problems with essential maintenance, the servers then went down for close to a whole day during a weekend. This angered a lot of fans as it was during peak playtime. Blizzard\u2019s lack of communication during the outage was also a bone of contention, and the company has since worked hard to improve this by tweeting more frequently. However, the damage may already have been done, as now an increasing number of fans are calling for a refund. https:\/\/twitter.com\/potatoescsgo\/status\/1447938811565166596 Fans take to social media asking for Diablo 2 Resurrected refund Since Diablo 2 Resurrected\u2019s last server outage #RefundD2R has started to appear on Twitter with more and more fans lending their voice to the call. Reddit users have also joined the fray, making their own cases for a refund to D2R after the game\u2019s problematic launch. Blizzard has revealed the cause of the outages has been an issue with Diablo 2 Resurrected\u2019s code. This gives fans hope that now the problem has been identified, it can be resolved. Although, a fix at this late stage may not be enough to dissuade those fans who\u2019ve started calling for a refund. One Redditor started their thread by saying \u201cThis is rapidly approaching I would like a refund territory\u201d with another saying, \u201cI tried to refund a day ago based on constant crashes and downtime, they denied it because I had played the game.\u201d There\u2019s been no public response from Blizzard as of yet. However, their response to an individual player\u2019s request for a refund has surfaced online. No refunds either \u2013 on a game that is consistently unplayable #refundd2r pic.twitter.com\/8jEIlZjaFq \u2014 Matt Bradshaw (@Snipe_Dogg) October 12, 2021 The company may be hoping that resolving the issue at its source will be enough to pacify disgruntled players.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diablo 2 Resurrected fans slam Blizzard and demand refunds over troubled launch Blizzard EntertainmentDiablo 2 Resurrected\u2019s post-launch woes continue as some fans demand a refund over the game\u2019s continued server and matchmaking issues.
