Grapplejack posted:I love that all the diablo posts in the thread are like "this thing is dogshit. It sucks and I have to grind for 100 hours and it will bug out and make me lose all progress. I will keep playing this its soooo fun" I played a bit of it. Seems like an even less responsive version of diablo 3 with slightly better graphics but i was pretty drunk so maybe it gets better. The menus and levelling are still clunky and stupid and the plot/dialogue are more of the same slop. They had a "diab-low" bar to clear to get people to buy it and i think they succeeded

i had blanked d4 from my memory and have been filling my brain with good game feelings via ff16 instead the helltides were the “fun” part of the end game and still sucked poo poo. i had to have my other monitor opened to some janky 3rd party website so i could see the event spawn locations so i could optimally farm joi crystalsZ. then i would pop the 175 shard chests and get a bunch of bullshit items with stats that did nothing. then i would repeat indefinitely. Total dog dick game

one of the funniest things about diablo 4 is it has to hit a server to let you check your inventory or skills so there's an infuriating 2 second hitch whenever you want to look at the sword you just picked up. they are going to shove so much gas in there that youre going to be permanently banned from your copy of the game if you even open up the game folder

if the only thing keeping you playing a game is grinding for some unlocks/gear or logging in for dailies, then its a garbage game you should uninstall playing games should be fun, not work

That's the point you should quit or roll another character and start from the beginning.

euphronius posted:grinding is fun for a lot of people ive had this discussion before, but the way i interpret "grinding" is when someone plays a game not for the fun of playing the game itself, but as a means to an end, usually to acquire some specific milestone or gear its possible for two ppl to play the exact same game but only one is grinding while the other is doing it because they enjoy playing the game

of course, that interpretation gets muddled if someone enjoys achieving the milestones but not the gameplay itself those ppl are sick and need help

I don’t really get the appeal of making a hardcore Diablo character in general but making one in an always online game just seems like deranged masochism

Grapplejack posted:The writing isn't that bad but there's a lot of stuff that it doesn't explain or discuss that it really needed to, mostly about the main character I mean they do, they just do it in an overly long exposition dump before the final level. What they absolutely don't do is make the protagonist relatable or even coherent. He's a generic rear end in a top hat that gets mad at the dumbest poo poo while also doing his absolute best to never question or figure things out until someone straight up comes along to tell him what he should think.

Motherfucker does not get distracted. That's always the problem with diablo necromancers. Skeleton army just gets fuckin wrecked by harder bosses. In d2 you had to be a bonemancer or do some bullshit with a blood golem and a curse, i don't recall

PostNouveau posted:It's weird the reviewer talked about exactly that quest and said Clive doesn't really do anything but mildly scold them and then someone else feeds the racists to a wolf. Actually it's a Stephanie Sterling review so probably fine to just post it. (spoiler tags just for that one side quest) Yeah, Clive doesn't feed them to the wolf (they buy another bigger wolf to kill Clive, but the wolf turns on them and kills them instead), but he also makes no effort to help them after hearing the child scream for help and is clearly unbothered by the outcome. There are definitely parts where I wish you had the option to just murk some assholes, but there's usually a good reason not to do so. In that part you want to stay reasonably undercover, since you're literally in the country whose army Clive deserted. It would be extremely stupid for Clive to start fighting those people in that situation (or even to talk back to them - the last thing he wants is extra scrutiny, since there's always the possibility of him running into some soldier who recognizes him). The part I'm at now has a certain character I'm really hoping Clive gets to kill, though I'm expecting them to die in some other way. In general it seems like they don't want to show Clive directly murdering non-combatants, even if they're comically evil.
