I play the remastered over this winter, first time playing D2 nearly 20 years... Maybe it's the nostalgia speaking, but I found, even today, it's exceptionally strong in the atmosphere department.
The lore was more threadbare than I remembered, and stamina is an annoying mechanic, but neither of those are all that large of a penalty. The atmosphere carries the story, and stamina basically ceases to matter after act 1 or 2.
I'd definitely echo your sentiment and say it's still fun.
