I could, I find the feedback on this forum to be pretty reliable when it comes to gaming though and for some reason I just can't stand watching videos of other people playing video games. I think I'm just old.

You guys confirmed what I suspected, I thank you for all the input. As much as I want to love every highly rated game as much as everyone else it's just not my genre. My buddy is going to get it when it comes out on Xbox (it infuriates me that he won't buy a gaming PC), and I'll check it out...

Thanks for all the recommendations, I never played BG1 or 2 so I'm pretty unfamiliar with the systems overall. It sounds like it's probably not for me despite how much I want it to be. I have been eyeing the pathfinder games but forget why they fell off my radar. Maybe I was waiting for the...

I'm hesitant to buy this game despite the overwhelmingly positive reviews because I bought Divinity Sin 2 based on it also being overwhelmingly positive. I did not enjoy that game at all. I guess I don't care so much for story as much as I do good gameplay. Divinity was boring as hell to me...

I feel the exact same way. Especially being dumb enough to buy the pre order to play early. First game I've ever felt like I was just ripped off. Probably did a good 60 hours and I really regret most of them now.

I agree. I will not buy another blizzard game unless it's been out and has overwhelmingly positive reviews and that's a huge change in attitude from where I was at the same point last year. Even after being burned by WC3 reforged I was willing to give them another shot, but this collosal piece...

I usually don't root against companies to fail just because I don't enjoy their products, I just stop buying their products. In this case, I am taking joy in watching this game flop. I know it's obvious but this is not Blizzard anymore. They're just exploiting nostalgia, trust fund kids...

I won't play another minute of this game or buy an expansion unless it get's overwhelmingly positive reviews and they've fixed the itemization and made the game fun. Which is to say I'll never play another minute of this game.

25% faster to absolutely nothing and enough extra gold to fund 1/2 of a reroll that might be any of the 1000 shitty affixes they bloated this game with? Fucking count me in. It's truly incredible that this company has managed to take a game that "had a decent foundation" and maybe had "some...

I guess not having to do renown is a plus, I just have no desire to play this again. Got a rogue to 77 pre season 1 and a necro to 65 season 1. The more I played the more it beecame apparent what everyone is saying, that everything in this game is designed to maximize your time played which is...

Just finished Dave the Diver. Was a fun game but ended up being a little shallow (no pun intended). For what it costs it's worth it, I got around 25 hours out of it. Kind of wish they would have removed some of the side games and focused more on biome diversity and fisheries / farming. I...

Anno 1800 , this will be the third 100 hour plus game I've invested myself into over the past few years.

Start the grind over on that game that was too grindy to begin with and hey we nerfed the fuck out of everything now with 50% less fun. Don't worry you can now farm malignant gems that might make you approach 80% of the power you already had on the eternal servers! I've been pretty open minded...

Jesus , does anyone have a takeaway from the patch notes? I can't read a book of "fixed an issue where..." and "xxx skill changed from 10-12.5% to 9.1-12.6%" Like did some classes get fucked and some improved? My only takeaway is blizzard thinks their game is close enough to being good that...

Yep , I don't know why they can't find a middle ground between "we'll nerf anything that's fun" to "Infinite damage go wild". Neither approach is particularly fun. The later bieng amusing for a couple weeks at a time. I like the idea of some kind of account progression for completing seasons.

Well the way it is now you sacrifice infinitely more gear than you actually find usable pieces so I'd just use the aspects whenever you find a new piece of gear that you like. Maybe if (for instance, as a twisted blades rogue) I find a max +% damage on a twisted blades aspect I'll save it for a...

Are there any viable necro minion builds ? I am considering trying one out but I hardly ever see necros with minions in game. Seems they're all copying the bone spirit / bone spear / whatever is classified tier S on icyveins or maxroll. I don't care about being S tier but I also don't want to...

Pretty much my experience so far. This stuff would be enjoyable if there were rewards or at least a good chance of rewards. All I'm looking for is progression. I'm also a casual and I'm not really interested in BiS everything with a spreadsheet optimized build. I just want to wreck shit, get...

Yeah, the itemization is so boring / bad. I don't mind a grind if I see some improvement as a result of the grind or repetition. Right now though I can go waste an hour in a Helltide , get 3 mystery chests, 10 sacred legendaries and not get a single thing worth upgrading or even salvaging the...

Combat is fun, game looks great, loot sucks, too grindy and repetitive. That's my in depth review of the game. I'm sure it will improve over time.

They could have really like randomized a bit of the dungeon content. Every dungeon is go in, do x to unlock door 1, do y to unlock boss, kill boss. Also , why am I level 42 and only getting item levels in the 20's ? I am playing on WT2 so I guess relative to WT1 I'm higher level at story...

Agreed, I'd give it a shot if it were this weekend for sure. Next weekend I'll be on D4.

I enjoyed the game. Felt a little diablo 2ish, much less cartoony than d3. Played a necro first beta, did sorc then rogue to 20 for this one. Rogue felt the most solid and powerful but reading it might not scale well in end game? That sucks because I thought sorc felt a little weak / clunky and...

Game would have to really kick ass to get me to play a non-turn based final fantasy. 7 remake was garbage because of action combat, even the setting "classic mode" or whatever was way off the mark.

Seems to be getting good reviews and the negatives are performance based so I'm intrigued. I played the shit out of one of these, might have been 3, and really enjoyed it. I'm a little confused about a few things though. This is launched without a campaign? So you are just playing sandbox...

I've accepted there will never be another experience in my life like Everquest. It was a combination of me being a teenager with unlimited time, the internet being somewhat new, and my first experience with an mmorpg. I wish DAoC and WoW would have been spaced out further so that I could have...

How bad is the rogue nerf with imbue ? I played necro in beta, I was already getting annoyed at the wizard skels that took damage as they cast and had to repeatedly be summoned every fight so if they're making pets die more I'm out on that. Was hoping to pick something other than sorc because...

I'd agree with most of that except the UI was fine for me on PC. My complaint as a casual gamer and not one that plays arpgs like poe and grim dawn is the itemization dictating your build or vice versa. The +.4% stuff is lame. I felt like there were way too many aveneus to upgrade your gear...

Yea, I was just looking for feedback on the gameplay. I didn't realize arpg had to adhere to strict guidelines when it comes to items and specs (admitedly the last arpg I played was D3, so I've missed the whole PoE / Grim Dawn / Last Epoch phases). This type of arguing is probably why game...

That's encouraging, I would probably only play the game up through the story anyways. I've never been able to get too into all the grindy stat maxing aspects of end game aarpg.

Still tempted to try it based on the hype. I think grim dawn's graphics just didn't grab me either. This one looks a little more vibrant. I'm clearly trying to talk myself into buying a game I have reservations about.

This just showed up on best sellers in steam and I had seen the recent chatter here. I assumed it was a new game but looks like it was released in 2019? Is it just the new multiplayer feature that's drawing interest now? I tried grim dawn a long time ago and refunded it, something didn't grab...

TL;DR - Fun as shit leveling up first time, Unfun as shit grindfest at max level. I really enjoyed the game while I leveled up a character to max. Beautiful game, great sound effects and music. Amazing combat compared to all other mmorpgs. Love the storage system. At some point along the...

If you pre-ordered from amazon, check what the delivery date is. I pre-ordered months ago and it just showed my deluxe edition as being scheduled for March 8. Promptly canceled and ordered through best buy.

Fucking so looking forward to this game. I'm usually let down when I have this level of hype.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked it out and it looks like they had a problem with no sound at all. I'm in an odd spot with partial sound. Kind of like if you were listening to a band and they removed the drums, main guitar, and non-chorus lyrics and you're left with a keyboard bass guitar...

It seems to be a pretty unique issue. I've seen some forum posts about npc voiceovers not working or other corrupted audio issues, but I've never seen a proposed fix beyond the recommendation to check file integrity. Seems like all of those posts get the token greeting from a cs rep and then...

Well I picked this up after not having played since beta. I was super unimpressed by beta so that first impression plus the reviews and dupe bugs and all that kept me away until it went on sale a couple weeks ago. I have no idea what the end game is like or if I'll enjoy it at all. Probably...

I played the non-royal edition a few years ago. I think I ended with about 106 hours played which is pretty impressive given my tendency to flame out on games really quickly. I enjoyed the shit out of it, but did find it incredibly easy towards the end of the game (and maybe a bit repetitive -...

Well fuck I just finally gave in and paid for a new sub for wotlk classic. Haven't played wow since wotlk and was hoping to level a few classes and do some dungeons. Classic doesn't strike me as a good place for that. No dungeon finder and most of the lfg spam is for higher level stuff, but...
