Duck and Cover posted:What compels people to play blizzards new mediocre gruel (I mean I suppose it could be an actually good game, and I'm being unfair but I doubt it)? Is it all nostalgia? Is it a desperation for any ARPG? Is it because you can't avoid it? Friends are playing it? Like what would Blizzard have to do to get people to stop eating their gruel? I suppose people are just happy it isn't a cellphone Diablo. I'm honestly curious and not just thinking "you're loving idiots stop buying poo poo from poo poo companies you morons" way (I assure you I am thinking that). ready to add this to the list of threads you're banned from eh lmao

Deki posted:One of the things I was worried about were the beta performance issues and I don't know if the new GeForce drivers were the cause of the fix but it's nice not having my GPU chugging and the game refusing to close cleanly on exit. Yeah it performs pretty well, Nvidia experience seems to think the requirements are higher than they really are Ever since I got the game ready drivers the game freezes and crashes on the splash screen like 50% of the time though

there are not a lot of skill options really, I accidentally made the meta barb build just because I liked whirlwind in D2 and PoE and the war cries looked good the zoom level is normal imo, I don't think about it at all

Philthy posted:The only thing that is considered complex, imo, is the endgame sigils and moving the colored dots on the map to unlock more map. That's not a season mechanic, that's the endgame, and it is extremely complex the first time figuring it out. yeah it was not great but you don't have to do it anymore

GoGoGadgetChris posted:It feels like someone at the helm wants your build to be a Commitment and they have people undermining their effort and giving us this current system where you CAN fully respec at a totally negligible cost, but it's a colossal pain in the rear end Yeah, as a freak who doesn't mind replaying campaigns over and over in traditional ARPGS, rolling characters for different builds makes some sense there but does not work with an open world imo. Once you go open world just have loadouts and level once per class

AAAAA! Real Muenster posted:As someone new to Seasons I guess I dont see the appeal of what sounds like a somewhat tedious new mechanic that I'll only ever get to use for 3 months? I already am struggling with the itemization and dealing with having to audit every pile of loot I bring in... and now in S1 I am going to have to worry about getting items I like AND hope that they have a socket of a color I want? I think you'll be able to handle it

Honestly character slot limits seem like a made up problem in 2023 I keep all my old standard characters in D2R and PoE and only delete them when I have to, to save blizzard and ggg their precious megabytes I don't ever log into them and if I did they'd all have had their spec points refunded by patches, but it's neat to have the hall of game

as a total D2 and ARPG grognard, D4 has been simplified so much they might as well just get rid of resistances

It would be nice if this poo poo show resulted in a global reduction of cooldowns, because cooldowns suck

as much as people say barb sucks I'll probably just play barb again because barbs are cool might try leveling thorns because apparently that scales well early on? hota is pretty fuckin boring to play, at least death blow / iron maelstrom has more buttons even though they are on tedious cooldowns

Thorns barb is a neat gimmick but it suffers from the same problem as every other barb build in that you have to use all the shouts which take up all your slots and the default shout cooldown is at least 5s too long Like seriously, just decrease the cooldowns of the shouts. It is tedious to wait for them and there's no reason not to that isn't bullshit. They don't do damage like in d2

# ¿ Jul 24, 2023 16:18 |

like you should be able to have 100% shout uptime with the skill tree alone. Call barb a support class, whatever
