That TQ thread is spilling into PoE talk so I figured it was time to have an general action-rpg thread. Diablo, PoE, Grim Dawn, Titan Quest, Dungeon Siege, etc. Sperg out, group up, I don't give a poo poo. Just keep clicking.  -------------------------------------- Diablo ISO and HD Mod Diablo ISO Diablo Official Patch Belzebub/Tchernobog Kazvall fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Sep 16, 2016 |

Lately I've been playing this Diablo 1 HD mod called Belzebub. Here's a video if anyone is curious. The multiplayer client is called Tchernobog. I can explain how to get it all installed if need be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4PfLbMJCoA

I enjoy the adrenaline rush of almost dying. Yet, dying is pretty depressing.

Also, if you haven't seen this, it's the Diablo: Postmortem by David Brevik and it's quite a good watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VscdPA6sUkc&t=2s

Bobnumerotres posted:d2 is kind of but since you can just instantly save & exit there's no point. less "i've never died with this char" more "i always hit alt+f4 really fast" Heh, those save and exits are just as real and adrenaline pumping as actually almost dying. Logging out one moment before death gets you.

Grim Dawn has managed to have blunderbusses and other antique type weapons without being steam punk at all. That's quite a feat imo

Lumpy the Cook posted:Serious question, if ARPGs are such an addictive why aren't there more portable ones? The only one I can really think of is the GBA version of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. I played a bunch of the PSX version of Diablo on my PSP I think it's as simple as a dpad not working well for the formula. Then looking at inventory management and such. D1 psx is definitely a strong release. And tons of people play d3 on console, but that's with a full controller. Record of Lodoss War would be a fun handheld game.

Finster Dexter posted:I don't like Hardcore except on PoE because their hardcore leagues have cool gimmicks sometimes. True, and no one plays hc poe to reach the endgame. It's just not loving possible for 99% of players. It's already a more hardcore experience.

There was a game in development called Hellraid that would have been Heretic + Diablo, first person. Sadly it's cancelled now or some crap.

Lumpy the Cook posted:PSP, 3DS and Vita all have joysticks... It would probably work best on Vita though. The psp joystick/thumbstick hurts after playing for long periods. I felt this pain before peacewalker came out on console. Regardless, I think developers think it's a no no zone, and simply won't create a product they think won't sell. Soon as some indie gently caress comes along and makes something fun, maybe we'll see some good ports or unique software titels.

Diablo ISO Diablo official patch Belzebub/Tchernobog Install Diablo from the iso. Give the Diablo.exe admin rights, and then install the official patch after moving it to the Diablo folder. Extract Belzebub or Tchernobog to the Diablo folder after that's done. Move diabdat.mpq to the Diablo folder from the iso, as well. Belz is SP, Tcherno is MP. The saves are NOT compatible across the two versions. Decide if you want to play with friends or not. There are no quests in mulitplayer and some minor crashing that's not a big deal. (ex. golems that die in a fire/lightning wall can crash the game) Kazvall fucked around with this message at 23:38 on Sep 15, 2016 |

If you can port forward, you can connect straight through ip. I have to use hamachi. Will provide that info if people want to play Tcherno. I have a level 11 barb, and a level 31 necro atm.

I got one of those eth vortex shields with some crazy runeword, on my paladin. I have yet to see another one drop, and it has perfect resists for its base stat. Too bad I couldnt, or well, didn't want to try e-bugging it in case I didn't get the slots I needed. I did manage to ebug my mercs armor and get him a perfect Andy's visage and an incredible roll on his polearm runeword for max meditation and close to max damage. I use the Fort runeword on the pally and not that teleport one, that's too easy/boring. Also he's hybrid zeal/smite. RIP my level 84 sorc that has 800% MF.

Still to this day you can bug out an ethereal item by doing the slot addition recipe in the cube. It adds insane defense to the item, like my armor is 2000+ defense. Only really usable on a merc or an indestructible item.

Not to mention the mod restores missing/unfinished content. There are 10 whole quests that the author found the dialogue, text logs, and map files for, then completed and added them. Also the page or two of spells that were not added that existed in the beta.

Ironman mode: Starting as a fresh character, usually with a friend or two, not always. Only being able to spend your starting gold in town, and once venturing out, never coming back to buy anything, or have anything identified, or get healed. Only talking to NPCs to further quest triggers. You can only progress through content and not repeat anything. The idea is to play until you die or cannot progress any more through normal means. I would love to do this with teams and have PvP flags active after level 10 and see who lasts longest.

In Grim Dawn you pick two classes and can respec at any time. So it's a bit more open ended. PoE is more about figuring out a niche and building on it over time. When I'm unsure of what class/build to do, I think of what I want to do and find the class(es) that work for that. My suggestion for hardcore when you have altitis is because it quickly solidifies what you are good at, and what works, and solves the problem of alts entirely because you dead son.

The Milkman posted:ok. is the HD mod recommended then? I guess try it out vanilla if you've never played before. But if not looking at 800x600 is important, then play the HD mod. It adds a bunch of other poo poo, too.

Before you choose what character to be, take a look at the ascendancy classes that are specific to certain characters. They expand upon play styles. I.E. Necromancer for the Witch.

I'm just saying, if you want to go something like totems, be a Templar or Marauder, because the ascendancy bonuses are pretty big.
