I have played it with every character also with the expansion back in the days. The game is quite good, but it has several flaws, which were fixed/changed in Diablo 2. So maybe it is good as a start, but sequel is much better for long play. CONS - the characters are moving very slow, in expansion the speed was increased - small number of items and their variations - no respawn. I had several problems to kill the bosses, because my character was weak or have terrible equipment. So mostly no grinding is possible.
