I hope you like spending 100s of hours spamming Frozen orb imagining someone loading up d2 for the first time today and reacting to 50% of the skill trees being completely unusable lol

Launch has been good so far, enjoying playing for realises only downside is the having done the first act twice already in the beta it was a little tiresome but now I’m past that it’s all good

PerilPastry posted:Is tone and the quality of the writing the main difference from D3 would you guys say? That and the general atmosphere feeling kind of oppressive instead of cartoonishly faux-grimdark like d3 was. It *feels* a lot more like D2 (or path of exile) than D3. Not having talking heads pop up to monologue evilly at you every five minutes sure does help with that.

Shoehead posted:Anyone else playing on controller having a problem picking up gear and auto attackign instead, it's driving me nuts In the controller settings option you can separate out interact and attack. So for instance, I have my interact set to R3. This way you can pick up loot even with mobs around etc.

BurningBeard posted:Depending on class you'll get mobility through skills eventually. Whirlwind barb, it's impossible to beat the succubis in the loving cave. Nothing dies fast enough. I don't think I've ever found myself in such a dumb situation in any ARPG, ever. No issues so far, suddenly I can't beat a boss at lvl 20.

I haven't played D3 is probably a year so my comparisons may be out of date, but with my first 4ish hours down my first thoughts are Honestly really bummed out that sorc and rogue don't have an arcane ray/rapid fire skill to laser cannon guys, that was how I had my fun in D3 The UI is kinda meh? The d2 style inventory interface isn't all that controller friendly (I didn't think they were that successful with it in d2r either), the skill tree UI is just...so much dead space and weird scrolling, and why is it using the right half of the screen only in 2023? I also wish it had the item pickup notif from D3 that let you see real quick if the base stat was better or worse and let you equip or drop without going into inventory. Going from right sick roll to a button dodge with cooldown is a downgrade too site fucked around with this message at 18:59 on Jun 2, 2023 |

For anyone running an HC character I highly suggest running around and grabbing all the altars of lilith you can as the stat bonuses and renown awards really help you steamroll the intro arc. I imagine anyone also playing WTII should prioritize this as it brings some parity between the character and the monster buffs.

Bear druid has been very fun and cool The only thing I'm kinda iffy on is the bear ultimate locks you into bear form for its duration, and during that time you can't use any of your non-bear skills like the super useful werewolf regen or other stuff, which has caused me some trouble since unlocking it. You become a bigger bear tho, so its still really cool

drat, this thread title is too real lol I'd need to buy a console to play this game. I don't think my laptop's built in graphics card is going to make the cut. Between Xbox one, Series X/S, Playstation 4, or 5, which is going to have the best price/performance ratio, if this is the only game I play?

Do yourself a favor and pick World Tier 2 as your initial leveling difficulty of dicking around in the overworld. Tier 1 is purely Story Mode that effectively locks the health of all enemies to zero (with relative level scaling). Sure at WT2 they have a sliver more hp and live long enough to feel like they actually belong in their environment, making them all the more fun to try your untested builds on, as in you know like a game.
