A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

To me d1 rogue looks almost the same as d2 amazon, and d2 rogues in the camp are a bit different and less wild.
In d2 rogues do seem to have either some cloth or plates on their hips. If you compare the color of their hips and hands, it's different enough to consider that's not skin and their hips ain't naked.
But think about the Diablo lore instead. It’s stated that she is a rogue, and in fact she becomes corrupted and is the rogue boss Blood Raven that you fight in the cemetery in Diablo 2.
Nice to know lore is consistent and connected between games. I should have written something like "idk why she looks like amazon from d2 though", because I'm not deep into the lore of both games (don't remember anything lorewise about d2, which I last played maybe 16 years ago). So my initial remark was purely about looks, which I still remember (maybe because screenshots or videos of d2 still pop in media quite often).
Also the sorcerer boss you fight towards the end of Act 2 in D2 is the sorcerer from D1.
The lore was really nicely done between these two games.
