Grim Dawn gang rise up
The thing is, on paper, the game seems awesome: it’s a lot grittier and darker than D3, combat and skills feel weighty, the character and armour design are cool too. However, there’s just not a whole lot keeping you motivated long-term unless you’re a fan of battlepasses as a form of carrot on a stick.
Enemies are way too tanky, you essentially do not feel your character getting stronger because the entire world scales with your level, the skill tree is not as deep as it seems on a surface level…
I could keep going with this. Point is, the amount of monthly recurring players speaks for itself.
Plus the removal of previous seasons mechanics also makes eternal realm characters weaker than they were when you played them originally, so not really any point to play them again.
As a Diablo 1, 2 and 3 fan whose distaste towards Blizzard began to slowly grow after they let Activision crawl in through the gutter, I feel this in my soul about everything Blizzard related currently.
For a minute I thought this was an ecco the dolphin deep cut
now that’s a game!!
I’ve only heard complaints from my Diablo fan friends.
Why play Diablo 4 when Baldur’s Gate 3 is so much better. Plus Diablo 3 has infinite content
They’re not even in the same genre.
Nun uh. They are.
They clearly aren’t. Only a complete fool would say otherwise.
Nuh uh, they are basically the same game.
Isn’t there a free demo?
I liked the atmosphere in the beginning. Reminded me of Diablo 1. But beyond that there doesn’t seem to be a lot of love.
I’m not sure but I loved Diablo 1 and 2, 3 felt like they completely lost their way… I’ve watched some streams and feel 4 is even more watered down…
Grim Dawn indeed, but I have to say that Last Epoch was great during early access. I am afraid to play 1.0 just in case they nerfed my build to oblivion.
Hey I’ve spent… checks Steam… 120 hours on Grim Dawn, I’ll complain about it as much as I want!
Grim Dawn and Last Epoch are indeed good, but for me nothing beats Path of Exile. Whenever I play other ARPGs, I’m just missing stuff from PoE
You’re totally right, it’s not good. (I don’t know anything about Diablo 4)
I watch Carbot’s videos instead. Here is the Diablo 4 playlist.
