I've started playing some Diablo2 again and it's really fun, especially online on BattleNet. Apart from the graphics and complexity this game is like a light version of WoW, if you take it down to the basic gameplay there's no difference. So if you have no money to buy a good computer and don't want to pay a monthly fee - here it is: WoW for the poor ;-)

Anyway, as some of you might remember all the areas in Diablo 2 are randomly created at each new start which gives it a good replay-ability although it can be very annoying sometimes. There are basic patterns for the level layouts but when it comes down to it every game has different maps.

So after entering a dungeon you are confronted with about 3 to 4 possibilities of where to go after a few steps. Now the crazy part: When I'm trying to get down to the lowest level I often (80% of all times that is) intuitively find the shortest way immediately! I don't believe this could be luck, as it happens constantly, it's really weird.

Contrariwise, the other 20% I run through a whole dungeon after finding the next staircase in one of the last few rooms I haven't entered yet - it's like reversed intuition, I don't know :-) It almost never happens that I find the way after a healthy walk halfway through the dungeon..

Has anyone else made that experience with Diablo / Diablo 2?
