    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    D4... exactly what we expected it to be. I feel bad for all the "This game is dogshit.... but I don't regret spending on it" crew. Laughable.

    They aren't going to make money off that deal. That's a loss leader. Trying to lure the biggest audiences away... where have we seen this tried and fail before? Also... a paywall article? Come on man

    No... they want to pretend they are interested in revenue sharing to create goodwill from the community without actually having to revenue share.

    It's nothing more than Twitch inventing more bad faith business practices to pretend they are interested in actually working with streamers. "Streamers can gift themselves subs!!!" We landed people on the moon 50+ years ago, but Twitch can't harvest their own data to filter out things like...

    Path of Exile

    I think one of the biggest successes of Sanctum was you didn't need to worry about bullshit AN mods and getting 1 shot/running into things you couldn't actually kill. I wasn't a huge fan of the play style of it within an ARPG but it had satisfying rewards and it didn't make you want to break...

    I am definitely not missing the point, you're missing the sarcasm. While also not understanding that uniques are definitely not what legendaries were in D3 (you meant D3 even though you said D4). Legendaries in D3 had one set modifier and everything else was random, you never knew what other...

    Umm what? They do mean something. You can craft specific mods on Elder or Shaper items in poe without having to use a different exalted orb to influence it first and then waste harvest juice trying to change it into an elder or shaper item before you start crafting. Goddamn... no wonder...

    A truly legitimate take from Ossoi considering I didn't even comment in this thread about the show until after the 4th episode.

    Much easier to ignore 90% of loot when you can just filter it out and not even see it

    It is absolutely a slow moving story. I think it's worth finishing but I understand the sentiment. But the reveals are generally satisfying and a lot of what seems like filler ends up being Germaine to the story as a whole.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    It isn't a random yellow, it's a Legendary. Which should mean something, but it doesn't, which is the point. Saving tabs full of legendaries to extract mundane +more to add to a rare isn't interesting. It's D3 itemization with more available stats. That's all they did, they slightly iterated on...

    Listen, I realize this forum is built on people doubling down and throwing shit at each other but I know you are smart enough to recognize sarcasm and the irony of you calling people in this thread too stupid to adapt, recognize and comprehend how "corporations change" while defending a company...

    Nope. You might eventually get annoyed with me for telling you nope. But... nope. The story is worth following. It's not mind blowing, but it's good. And it's well written.

    Right, in the books there is a very clear and defined motivation to find the truth of "why are these people, condemned to death, still performing their duty to clean?". In the show its, very, very glossed over. And I think it's because they want to pace the show a bit faster to get to Juliettes...

    Right, after the first book. They showed it in the second episode. It's not really a Spoiler though and I think it works better to have that short glimpse that early since it doesn't give all that much away on TV.

    So you're argument is that Blizzard is adapting, recognizing... and comprehending how to make good games. Got it. Carry on.

    Drops of God

    So nobody is talking about this at all, which seems to be a trend with much of Apples library. I'm on episode 4 now and this is pretty good. It's a little strange because it's in Japanese, French and English (all three languages are used frequently) and the English is a little wooden. I would...

    I'm not sure why you thought to defend this game with some strange tenured employee comparison. It was ridiculous, because I myself have been with my company for 15 years AND if I left, this company would be looking to replace me with someone else who has similar experience and expertise...

    And to all the "That's ARPG!! HAVE YOU EVER ARPG!!" type responses. I see almost every decent review here and elsewhere talking about the campaign, and at best lukewarm responses about the end game loop. The grind... you know... the most defining aspect of the entire genre. Farming for that...

    This is exactly the type of fanboi apologist response that used to get laughed at here. Now it's the norm.

    Bounties in D3 are different than what you're thinking of. You're thinking of Adventure mode. Bounties were a garbage system required to get crafting materials that were pretty much universally maligned because they were mundane, tedious, and annoying.

    This is probably going to be a show you'd rather binge than watch as it airs if you're impatient for big reveals. The story unfolds slowly in the books and the show seems to be pacing itself similarly.

    Tetris (2023)

    The movie definitely feels like "The story of Tetris is mildly fascinating, video games are super hot and mainstream now... let's spice this up and tell a story that is barely based in fact" It probably would have been better if the story was told from the inventor's perspective instead.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    I'm not sure players actually like procedurally generated areas anyway... it sucked shit in D3 if trying to push, and in every ARPG ever made players tend to gravitate to either static spawns/areas or areas with smaller tile sets and fewer random outcomes (Travincal/Chaos Sanc/Pindleskin...

    I will never understand developers fascination with making it tedious or difficult to change your spec or skill load out. Especially in ARPGs where there are multitudes of options and a high desire to experiment for much of the player base. This is why ARPGs turn into "meta" fests with people...
