Yeah his numbers are definitely off for that era...

Diablo 2 was released 25 years ago and it required 1GB storage... he is saying that every D2 player had a $500+ HDD lmao

Yeah, we had a prebuilt without anything special in it with about 5GB storage when I played Diablo II. I don't know how much it cost, but my dad was cheap and usually bought bottom end stuff, so probably $500-800 total. There's no way the storage was the bulk of that price...
