It's like that Blippi guy who does kids shows on YouTube but hates kids in real life. Most streamers are not genuine, they are opportunist.

Twitch shilling has made all this type of stuff 10x worse. You have these shit, unfinished, buggy games get shilled to shit on twitch by streamers and their stupid hordes of brain dead NPCs eat it up without a second thought, and defend it to death. And what makes it worse is that these...

Is it 10 bucks yet? Who could have predicted this.

Titan Quest is one of my top ARPGs. I would say D2 is my first pick and Titan Quest is my second.

I think we all know this is going to be a flaming pile of shit no need to add to it.

True. Love me some D2. Wish I could still Blood Golem + Iron Maiden, but I'm sure that has long been fixed. Was so much fun being a god, watching all the cows kill themselves.

Sigh, I'm I really going to pay $40 for a 20 year old game, with updated graphics and shared stash.

These guys really did hit the jackpot, with timing, price point, and theme. I still think this game gong to fade away rather quickly. Hopefully they made their game easily modifiable, this is what keeps games like 7d2d, Terraria, and many other games going strong.

This game is gong to die off faster than Cyberpunk 2077. I give it a couple weeks until it's not in the top 20 steam games anymore. Really over hyped. Chopping wood and stone, building empty buildings is the majority of it's content. How many mob types are in the game less than 10? They priced...

I'm getting zero ads now, no matter the time of day, after reinstalling my OS. I also noticed if I disable uBlock for any reason and forget to enable it before watching twitch again, I'm no longer able to block ads on twitch with uBlock. Something fishy is going on here. No matter what I do on...

I'm not sure what is going on with Twitch. For awhile now I wasn't able to block ads on Twitch, I removed the add-on and reinstalled browsers etc, nothing worked, still ads. Today I decided to reinstall windows ( something I do every couple of months, to keep my PC running smooth ) and uBlock...

With all the work they are putting into makig sure people are forced to watch ads, i'm going with very little or no.

This has to be the biggest fails of 2020. Didn't they make exclusive consoles to go along with the release. I wonder if people can refund those too.

refund

Yes. And fuck people for accepting this level of unfinished shit and thinking it's okay. These type of people have made gaming into what it is today, a shitfest of crap.

Who would have thought this would be a hot mess. Every time, every single time, hype is cancer of the gaming industry. Fanboys are the cancer of the gaming industry. People will never learn. So is it $10 in the bargain bin yet?

Yeah, what a crazy clown world. Big Media is really trying to kill internet streaming aren't they. His donors, Comcast, Charter, AT&T, NCTA. Either Justin got really lucky selling twitch to amazon or he saw the writing on the wall.

Yep. I also macro'd EQ2 crafting afk for hours on end and was never banned for it.

To much group focus for AoC to be a contender to/for WoW. The only game that might give WoW a ran, is New World. Since you can solo and zerg play.

I'm going with bat, bat soup.

I'm waiting for the 3d printed EQ stuff, someone must be doing it.

You know whats going to make New World a hit. That anyone can follow their favorite streamer around, help kill things, get exp/loot. You are going to have these huge Zerg groups running around, which they had in the alpha. Nobody can tell anyone that this camp is ours and players dont have...

Giving players multiple ways to beat an encounter intended or not is a good thing.

You know the next thing poeple are going to be bitching about is how cyberpunk 2077 is GTA with skill trees. These people will never be happy.

nah, all it reminds me of is No Mans Sky, which I did pay about $10 for, which did turn out to be an okay game. I still 100% stand by this turning out to be GTA 2077. Sure there might be a couple hours of heavy story at the start, but the game is going to open up and be just like GTA. Drive...

Is this game $10 in the bargain bin yet?

Horizons Empire of Istaria was like this. Crafting was a community effort and it unlock new cities, places to grind, and paths to new areas. Everyone would work together to add what they could to community projects and it changed the world for the better.

There is no point in making a p99 clone. In my other post I pointed out why, people aren't going to leave p99 to play p99 with a monthly fee. Having Instancing doesn't make a game WoW. WoW is quest based, dungeon crawling. They have already said camping will be the main focus of N. They have...

And which MMO doesn't have this? Every single MMO that I can think of has this in one way or another.

That's no fun. Things like this should always favor a PC doing it over an NPC. An NPC doing it for you should be your last option. Reputation/Race should play a role in every interaction with a NPC, not just if they want to kill you or not. Also Money sinks are good.

Master Magical Guild NPCs in towns should beadle to port players to other towns, as well as bind characters. This always seemed weird to me that they didn't. Don't get me wrong the ports would cost a lot of money ( like 5pp (base) at level 1 in EQ ) to the point that you would think twice about...

The more that I think about it, the more that I think New World and Fallout76 have an almost perfect system that fixes most of this. The system where anyone can tap a mob regardless of being in a group or not. Loot is personal. Loot has different random rolls +0-10str, +damage to plants, etc...

This is going to be their #1 biggest issue to deal with. I don't think this game will draw the amount of players that most here think it will. Population wise, It will be along the lines of Project Gordon, around 120 active plays online at any given time. People from places like p99 aren't going...

If Project Gorgon, two dudes, can do it. I don't see why these guys can't. The only problem with being to niche of a game, in group based gaming, is that there will be nobody around to group with, which I'm sure they have thought about. Project Gorgon has about 120 active users a day.

Camping and killing the same re-spawns a million times over to grind exp or killing a place holder a million times to get a named mob to spawn, for X item, is just as crappy a system as running the same static instanced dungeon 100+ times over to grind loot or exp. At that point there is no...

Also, raiding, does game like this " A focus on scheduled and ever-changing content & NPC behaviors " need raiding. I don't think so. Not at the start anyway. Maybe later when the game matures, and still, if the game is " ever-changing content " and the focus is on Adventuring than raiding isn't...

If the game is about " Adventuring is at the heart of the game " then camping shouldn't be a thing. Random events should happen while groups are out adventuring. Rare mobs should not just spawn in on a place holder, in a static " camp " spot, they should be triggered by doing a task. Kill X...

I like the New World approach, if you attacked the mob you get loot/exp. Doesn't matter if you are in a group or not. 😎

I think a lot of people are going to be looking forward to collecting, stealing, buying, racing, painting, and modifying cars. How many story missions will be tied into driving and shooting from the cars. I think a lot. Robbing tech, banks, and the like, mission. The map looks like a GTA map to...
