We had custom modifiers before the portal..
I joined d2 long after "Five of Swords" were removed, so i can't speak to experience using these. Though, i am now convinced the portal was %100 intended to sunset the director.

5 RepliesYes we did, we also had survivalist, specialist, and health boosted armour pieces long before this new system. The were literally coined that years ago, still have a few pieces tucked away in the vault.

To me thats the best explanation as to why the gameplay, scaling, and portal are all such weird lateral/ backwards moves. It feels like a completely different game because it is.[/spoiler] Turns out this is all false.

12 RepliesIt was inspired by the Swordz card yes. Was it meant to replace the director? Maybe... but that's not what I wanted. I wanted the Portal... to be a complimentary and supplemental system.
