For those who aren't aware, in Diablo 2 you would hire followers to go through the gates of hell alongside you, however when they died, you had be able to rehire them using cold hard cash. A new D2R Items follower was introduced in each zone. This means that some were far superior than others.

This evolved into Diablo 3, where instead of employing mercenaries you gained three different companions during the story campaign. There was the Scoundrel Sorceress, and Templar, which represented various aspects like DPS, tank, and magical user respectively.In the course of my Diablo 2 Resurrected adventure I only encountered helpful NPCs who stuck around for a few hours in dungeons and then departed into the sunset.

I liked the vast array of abilities that followers could bring to the table within Diablo 2 and would love to see this expanded upon. This opens up even more options for different build types, as well as incredible ability chains for demons.

For now, though it's a good idea to get familiar with the Diablo 2 Resurrected classes, because they're the ones we'll be playing as primarily. In a separate interview , Game director Joe Shely, however, it was mentioned that this roster could expand in the future because there's nothing that's eternal in Sanctuary.

The principal developers of Diablo 2 Resurrected have stressed that they don't want players "feel as though they're paying to win" as the game comes out in the coming year.
