  I heard that Diablo II has already been released / will be released soon. Is that true?
No. You are probably confusing Diablo II with Hellfire, Sierra's addon pack for the original Diablo. The Hellfire addon includes a few extra levels, spells, monsters, items and a new character class, Diablo II will be a completely new game.

I have some ideas for Diablo II, who can I send my suggestions to?
Although it may be a bit too late to send suggestions for Diablo II, you may want to try Blizzard's support email, and a few of the forums on battle.net

Can you send me the full game? Where can I buy it? How about the demo?
Diablo II or the Diablo II demo haven't been released yet! You will have to wait for 1999 to play it! But you can check out cdmag, because it's pre-selling the game. If you feel you can trust'em...

Where do you get all that info on Diablo II for the site?
We get our info from two kinds of sources. One of them are our sources in Blizzard, those people work for or know people who work for Blizzard and give us details on how Diablo II is progressing. Our second source are visitors like you who heard rumors or facts about Diablo II and report it to us.

Diablo Cheaters suck! Will we see the same amount of cheating in Diablo II as well?
Blizzard is taking considerable measures to make sure Diablo II will be as cheat free as possible. In fact, Blizzard has a special team of programmers dedicated just to the task of stopping cheating. We will have to wait until Diablo II is released to see if they succeeded in their crusade against cheaters.

Will I be able to play Diablo II with my old characters from the original Diablo?
No. Diablo II will have all new characters for you to play with and will not allow you to continue playing with your old Diablo characters.
