    LE will never EVER have the end game potential of PoE because of the design philosophy. Almost everything in LE is siloed based on class. All the way down to armor types like helms and chests being class specific. Very little gear has any potential whatsoever to be used in niche or interesting...

    There are alternatives for passive points and idol slots now. Dungeon bosses grant these in 1.2 as well. You do need to get to act 5 at least though so you can skip to the faction unlocks in act 9 by completing temporal Sanctum.

    The campaign is basically only there to start teaching you basic mechanics and that's it. The devs have stated they want to funnel people into end game loops without any kind of big time sink. The end game is just kind of lacking. They are taking steps to try to make it more engaging but...

    Just that he's a weird dude. I was re-watching that video you linked because I'm starting Warlock and wanted to see if there was anything I was unaware of and got to that point in the video and thought "Jesus"

    Now that you guys mention it I feel like I should just switch from developer into security. You just tell everyone "I don't like that, we can't do that" and then do nothing right?

    I've never really cared much about this but my speakers suck and I didn't feel like buying an appropriate setup and putting all the speakers in the correct location and calibrating and all that other bullshit so I ended up spending money on headhphones.

    Warlock doesn't feel floaty to me. Unless you are speaking specifically about collision detection which is just abysmal all around. The "running in place" stuff when surrounded by monsters

    What class/build are you playing? This has a lot to do with that. A lot of what you are referring to has been addressed for a lot of the skills but there are still some big offenders.

    It is an unfun pile of shit. It's also new and attracted a lot of new players that are still working their way through the campaign which is probably the correct explanation of retention numbers. Both things can be true. And Jonathan can be a disingenuous, arrogant prick about it all he wants...

    Yea it's a pub-sub message broker/messaging engine. BizTalk is the same concept though it's old, outdated, and deals in XML payloads which are large and cumbersome.

    If you haven't bought/played yet this game is worth doing a playthrough (or a few) before release. You can go straight through the campaign. You can skip certain acts with dungeon keys. You can even go immediately into end game monoliths as soon as you are strong enough (typically level 30) if...

    I would say that every truly intelligent person has at least some imposter syndrome. And it probably reaches its height around middle age, especially in high skill professions that change often (like tech), where companies/managers decide that if they are gonna pay someone to "learn on the job"...

    Warlock absolutely did get nerfed. The spirit plague ward generation got massively nerfed, which was a big portion of their (very op) survivability. Though that's an acolyte nerf in general.

    It sounds insane because it is insane while also not really serving any meaningful purpose. I would probably just have it save the generated sql/code to a secure drive somewhere and then just have a human commit it to the repo if he's that hell bent on it being in source.

    Warlock will be the most noob friendly, high tier end game class most likely. Their ward generation got absolutely gutted in this patch but it will still be a very, very strong starter (and end game, it scales insanely well also). Chthonic Fissure is just kind of an OP skill with maybe the best...

    I don't think anyone is expecting, or wanting, any one game to "take the crown". The large majority of any playerbase within either game is likely hoping they both end up being great games on somewhat alternating patch cycles.

    Yes they do. LE was a massive success at launch, EHG has just dropped the ball pretty badly since. This new season and the content within it does look very promising though. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Epoch#:~:text=As%20of%20March%2022%2C%202024,peak%20concurrent%20users%20on%20Steam.
