    How much do they need to monetize a game where most people are going to be paying 89.99 for it? lol. I doubt there will be much outside of the season passes and some mounts and other garbage.

    Can't even talk about vidya games on this forum anymore without the thread getting ruined by people rehearsing being mad about the same shit every day. It's all so fucking tiresome.

    You might want to research what you're talking about. There have been 73 bank failures in the past 10 years in the US, all of them less systemically important than SVB (which is why you never heard about them) and in all but 1 case, everyone got all of their money and in the final case, got...

    Almost no bank can survive companies linked to a mere 20 people withdrawing 42 billion in 24 hours.

    The SVB liquidity crisis was caused by a coordinated group of VCs who are deeply into crypto. Approximately 20 VCs told their seed-funded companies to all withdraw on the same day, to intentionally cause a bank run.

    When the atlas got super complicated I just fucking quit. Learning the optimal sextant bullshit was harder than stuff I have to learn for my actual job, so I didn't.

    Well, D4 Rogue is built around builders and spenders, so there's 2 buttons already. Then you've got an ultimate ability that seems fairly important. So you really only have 3 additional slots. And Rogues have both melee and ranged weapons, but with the limited skill slots, it seems like you'd...

    Yes, I agree, 5-10 preferably. The current six is less than 10. 8 would probably be perfect for Rogue, or a specialization that allowed you to switch from a ranged hotbar to a melee hotbar.

    Skill use in D2 was bad too. Mostly spammed 2 or 3 skills, tops. The thing with D4 is that there are a lot interesting skills, at least in the Rogue skill tree, that will never get used because there isn't room on the bars. It could just be a Rogue problem though, I didn't bother to play any...

    The only part that feels like D3 is the 6 skill limit. But that's a big hurdle.

    GW2 is definitely playable with a controller, but only a moron would try playing WoW with one, and by would I mean did and by moron I mean look 3 posts above.

    I played D4 with a controller in a group for a couple hours, it was pretty fun.

    It's 2.5 seconds according to google. In D4 it doesn't exist. But yeah they could easily make an ultimate skill bound to R3 or something.

    The reason I stopped playing POE was because of this, actually. As much as I loved coming up with weird Spectral Throw builds every season, clicking 2 buttons did not a game make.

    Gonna agree on the point that the skill system is a little weak, only weakpoint that I found during the beta. Obviously you can fill it out a bit more by level 100, but with only 6 skill slots (clearly chosen to make it easier to play with a controller) it's much too limiting. They should give...

    Also just take the whole thing with a grain of salt, because the group of people who performed these tests are basically a cult who believe in nonsense like Roko's basilisk - Wikipedia, something I have tried many times to understand what they view as profoundly dangerous and come up with nothing.

    It really only takes a fixation for one specific skill to get you into an ARPG. I played Spectral Throw every league in PoE, found a way to make it work no matter what the 'meta' was.

    They're 3+ months out from release, I can't imagine any of that stuff is final. That said, I really hope this game gets delayed only because I don't want to play this kind of game in the summer, I'll waste the only 2 months this shithole state is actually nice.

    The choice between selling stuff for gold and salvaging it is very real, at least at these levels. At this point my only chokepoints for upgrades is gold, not mats, and selling items for gold is the best way to get gold fast.

    This beta has more than 20x the content of the D3 beta. D3 beta went to Leoric and ended, with a handful of tiny zones leading up to it. If that ratio translates to the actual release game, this is going to be a hell of a game.

    Endgame 5 affix rares with a legendary mod extracted from a legendary are supposed to be the best items. So basically you need to find a rare with 4 strong affixes you want, reroll the 5th affix until you get what you want in that slot, then put a legendary mod onto the item in order to get a...

    Yes but there are rares with more affixes later on. They should make rares with more affixes a different color, it would make managing loot a lot easier.

    The legendaries are not unique, they're just powerful random items to use for a while, that you can then extract the legendary power from, to put on other better items sometime later.
