Might have to check this out. I haven't read this whole thread but how long does a typical run take?

Yeah I just got the K2 beacons, and while I still don't like having to build a million of them, they at least look nicer than the base game beacons. I always thought that beacons should be a one-per-machine effect, not 12 or whatever.

Yes, but to my knowledge there is no additional content. It will be the same experience offline or online.

K2 is "just right" for me. It adds a lot more complexity but it doesn't require a PhD like SE does. It makes the game exciting again, after you're bored of the base game recipes. The expansion is adding a lot more than just space too. If you haven't read all the recent Friday Facts I highly...

I was gonna say I highly doubt you have time to finish a SE-K2 game before the expansion comes out, but it depends how much free time you have. Most playthroughs take like 300-600 hours just for SE. No idea how much more K2 adds on top of that. I'm just messing around in K2 here and there until...

Obviously, Pokémon has taken notice of this game's success, and it sounds like a lawsuit isn't far behind!

Yeah, shaman plus just about anything makes for a pretty tanky build. I just built out a vitality conjurer and it's basically immortal. Really fun though. I love the totems.

Everything about the expansion is looking amazing. Other game devs should take a page out of Factorio's book and release when it's actually ready. You can tell they are super polishing it before releasing. I would rather wait and have an amazing experience than be let down and have to wait for...

Yeah, arcanist is super fun but pretty much any build will require loads of gear to be good. Rektbyprotoss recently did a video of the top 10 or 20 builds for a fresh start in 1.2. Any of those would be great.

Yeah all the QoL stuff in Grim Dawn is just amazing.

I got sucked back in with patch 1.2. This game was already really good, and with the patch it's now even better. I started a death knight, who will eventually be a Krieg aether DK. Leveled as forcewave and using that to farm for all the gear for the build too. The icons for double rares and...

I started fresh again with the patch. It's kind of fun having to collect all the blueprints again. You just have to work with what you find. I really like that you can now play in elite as long as you want. I always tried to grind all the reps to max in elite so I can have max resists in...

Do we think rogues, shaman, etc will be able to tank above like level 40? It seems like 10% DR and not being crit isn't nearly enough for end-game stuff.

Yeah, for maximum complexity just go SE, or SE + K2. For middle ground go K2.

My shadows are even worse than this. Granted, I haven't messed around with settings too much yet, but the shadows are horrible. There should be an epilepsy warning. I'm getting around 45 fps on an empty map, so better than I expected. The game is definitely in need of some work before it's fully...
