The mod's homepage is quite user friendly: it features five different languages and contains additional downloadable material. There are two new graphics add-ons, additional high quality music and a useful clicker program. The Bard and the Barbarian from original Hellfire have become the Assassin and the Gladiator. The Gladiator's animation is already completed and it introduces dual wielding graphics in the game. Another interesting new feature of the mod is "Gillian, the Stasher", who provide the player with unlimited storage of valuable items. A very useful Guide section is also available on the mod's website for the starters. This mod is reportedly much harder than the original game, so it is recommended to consult this Guide and the project's forums, too. |

Revision as of 13:34, 23 January 2010
Template:Infobox Mod
The Hell is an addon/modification for Diablo: Hellfire, created by Mordor and The Hell Team.
The Project was started on April 14, 2006 by Mordor, and the first playable public version was released out about a year later. Since then the game has expanded tremendously, attracting more and more people, not only players, but also people who help in the creation of the mod. Current version of the game is 1.91+.
The hallmark of The Hell is a very serious approach to development. First and foremost, it has concentrated on eliminating most of the initial bugs Diablo and Hellfire were originally released with. It also raises challenge considerably, gives much more variety (monsters, items, spells, boss monsters, unique items, item & environment colors), improves overall difficulty balance of the game, improves monster AI, introduces new character animations, increases replay value and gives full support for Multiplayer experience through a free program called Hamachi. There is now a The Hell 2 mod in the works with massive changes like higher resolutions, lots of dungeon transition optimizations, dungeon generator update, bug fixes, etc.
Features
Some of the core changes to Hellfire are:
- Challenge factor was raised considerably
- Over 400 unique monsters
- Many new base items with room for thousands more
- Over 500 unique items
- New and adjusted item affixes
- New and adjusted spells
- Hundreds of new and improved palettes for items, environment and bosses
- Completely revamped experience gain
- Improved and feature-expanded monster AI
- Additional character classes
- Music expansion
- Unlimited item storage
- Improved PvE and PvP balance
- Bug fixes
- Full support for multi-player experience through LAN/Hamachi/Kali/Wippien
- Increased replay value
The mod's homepage is quite user friendly: it features five different languages and contains additional downloadable material. There are two new graphics add-ons, additional high quality music and a useful clicker program. The Bard and the Barbarian from original Hellfire have become the Assassin and the Gladiator. The Gladiator's animation is already completed and it introduces dual wielding graphics in the game. Another interesting new feature of the mod is "Gillian, the Stasher", who provide the player with unlimited storage of valuable items. A very useful Guide section is also available on the mod's website for the starters. This mod is reportedly much harder than the original game, so it is recommended to consult this Guide and the project's forums, too.
This is the developer's testimonial: "I have always loved this game for its original taste: dark atmosphere, cold steel and blood. I've been playing Diablo and Hellfire for ten years and this mod represents all that I ever wanted from this game. This is Diablo's best of the best. Don't be fooled by the simplicity of the game or by it's similarity with Hellfire. It is an absolutely new & improved game under the old mask..."
