explosivo posted:Hey this game loving rules. When this goes full release and I can get some buds in here with me this shits going to be a blast. It really feels like the better parts of a lot of recent arpg's but also doing it's own things and it's really grabbed me by the balls after playing for a couple hours last night. yeah it's very well done. A ton of really clever, just smart design choices in it. and imo one of the biggest things: the game communicates mechanics really, really clearly to the extent you very much do not need a wiki to play through it

Sab669 posted:I mean yea LE is the better game overall, but D4 does have the best/coolest campaign of any ARPG [which as I said on the other page is an extremely low bar]... Plus not like it'll be taken off Gamepass, so can just play it down the line if one really wants to experience it. starting to think u have incredibly poor arpg taste

J posted:The crafting in this game is great because you can engage with it right away without feeling like you're wasting resources that "should" be saved for endgame crafting projects later. I think it is literally the best crafting system in an arpg wrt the amount of power behind it relative to the obtuseness of the system as a whole. Overall it's a pretty elegant solution to arpg crafting

I'm happy for the LE devs. It's not 1:1 because PoE has its own launcher that many people use, but LE has a similar amount of people on steam playing as PoE pulls on steam for a league start. LE has come a long ways and has always had a very clear vision behind it, so it's nice to see it doing well.

nerox posted:If I am blasting through ignoring everything, how will I know? presumably the vendors or other npcs that you actually have to interact with will comment on it, probably as you're zooming away. they had an extremely positive response to NPCs basically poo poo talking the player so it might well be more of that, too. idk though, they talked about it at some point during one of the poe 2 panels, but I don't have a link offhand Clarste posted:Honestly, I am story-enjoyer by nature, but the way they choose to present it in this game (dialog with slowly appearing text while someone talks) is like the worst possible way to convey that, imo, since you can't speed it up without skipping it entirely. That said, I feel like the text appears a little faster in 1.0? Yeah imo there's absolutely room for arpgs to have some story, but there's just a bunch of incomprehensible genre conventions that story is apparently meant to be conveyed by some rambling expository notes left all around the world. or the world's slowest talking npcs Herstory Begins Now fucked around with this message at 18:59 on Feb 22, 2024 |

it's currently the #2 selling game on steam and it's made by a studio that was, until their big hiring spree, what, a year ago? around 2 dozen people iirc

imo if you get rid of the campaign people will just complain about the boring leveling from 1-80 as the roadblock to rerolling as an aside, you can go to delve at level 30 and play that all the way to level 90+ without ever doing any story and then just blitz the story at max speed, but no one does that

what the gently caress is this game doing that the menu screen and even the pre-login screen have my graphics card going at 100% while in game it uses like 20%. that's even with fps limited

Tiny Timbs posted:That’s pretty wild. I certainly didn’t expect that, but I guess PoE has a reputation that kept it from growing. poe has a ton of people who play on the stand alone client so it's not a 1:1 thing, but it's still impressive as hell. I can't overstate enough how good of a move it was to make 1) an actually good arpg and 2) make it very user-friendly

Salvor_Hardin posted:Totally. I'm a 10 year PoE vet and nothing in the genre has ever held a candle (Sorry Grim Dawn) but this has real potential. grim dawn owns but yeah this is the only game I can currently see becoming a meaningful contender to POE. I wouldn't actually write grim dawn devs off because there's a ton of good design in that game, but idk it's got a lot farther to go

Ghostlight posted:everything i see form poe2 is like the complete opposite of what i want. ggg are always talking about how they want to slow the game down and make it more consequential and all i want to do is murder demons and assign points to skills that murder demons quicker so i get points faster. I want to see what they come up with for poe 2 because ggg tends to be very clever, but yeah I in no way want that replacing poe 1, which pretty much perfectly nails what you describe imo
