This may be the worst suggestion I've seen on these forums.


No, maybe if you using Ruby then you will likely rid off a lot of undesirable bugs. This idea not only for Median-XL mod. This can be made to all other mod so some people made it from Blizzard Diablo 2 base.


Ruby is a terrible choice in this context. If you want to go higher level you should use JAVA, C# or something similar. Most languages still use C libraries with higher level abstraction layers to bind said language(s) to the native C/C++ library.

Regardless, ripping off assets is like asking to get sued by a company that lives on crushing the dreams of its fans!


Why would you mind get sued by Blizzard while you play reverse engineered, decompiled, or disassembled Diablo 2? I think this Median-XL already break U.S.A. treaties.

So i've played this game for a year and a half now, and i actually viewed the effort the developers put into a mod of Diablo 2. Because yes, it's only a mod.
Thing is, with the same effort making new content and variety of it, you can use a engine to develop a game diablo-like. As if it was another ARPG, not just a mod.

I Think this is doable in fact, since i saw this last 26/5 expansion, i saw the dedication the creators of the median xl put into the mod. But in my opinion diablo 2 engine is too old, even thought it's the king of ARPG´s, it can't do much if you want real progress.

TL;DR, make a game

(please note this is my point of view of how could this game progress. Hope y'all like the idea)

I like RPG Maker as it have a lot of copy paste script effort.
