Please don't "just" increase the amount of mobs. This is not what makes combat more fun or difficult... just tedious.

Restart Steam and it should update / install it.

Is "this week" over on friday or on sunday? Honestly, there is likely no reason for hype anyway. It's 6 new items you rarely use (if at all), and a new sidekick who very likely won't talk a single word once hired, so...

Remember the good old times when nobody gave a crap about gender in video games?

Welp, like Zeratul already wrote further above, all the bounty jobs are pretty much assassinations. So please don't take up on them either. :>

Not trying to tell anyone what to do or what not to do, but imo, that whole timer idea was kinda stupid. :>

Problem with combat is that you can't just increase the mob difficulty / use simple level scaling, as that will just result in combat becoming tedious instead of an easy breeze. What's necessary is a mix of lowly trash mobs and some real tough combat scenarios to shake things up.

"A group of skinks that live in New Guinea and the Solomon Islands have blood that is lime green." Sounds more like german censorship from the early 2000s to me.

I'm trying to play through PoE1 right now, but... I think this game is just so boring. It has become much better since its release years ago. Combat plays better and putting it on a SSD dramatically decreases the loading times and all that, but despite these two big issues that caused me to cease playing back in the days, the game still just can't keep me motivated. Started with the White March now, but again... I just don't have the drive to go on, primarily - I guess - because of the setting. Yoga Fire is a whole different beast. Despite its plenty flaws, I'm really digging it a lot. The setting, the visuals, the way everything works... I seem to be able to relate much better to it. I'm thinking, maybe it's because "generic" fantasy setting isn't much my cup of tea, which is what PoE2 makes different. There is more guns, more fancy clothes, ships, cannons, etc... as I've already wrote a while ago, it somehow gives me that Arcanum vibe, while PoE1 does not at all. I'm guessing this has a huge influence on me and how I perceive the franchise.

Maybe you should post some every-day-town-photos, to show the evil west that iranians don't live in caves or something.

Instead of consuming, start creating.

Can't even count the numbers of school shootings in the USA anymore.

lel they didn't even fixed the quotation bugs and **** in years, so don't expect anything like that.

I bet the queen will survive even Morrissey. Would be funny.

Don't worry, they'll be back next week. At this point - across all tv shows - I kinda feel like everything becomes same-y in a way. It's like that same story progression mechanic is shared by every bigger tv show now. Don't think I had noticed that one or two years ago. The way the cast is rotating per episode, at which point they are using a flashback episode, etc...

Nah, it cleans up the scene. Especially with how the combat works now, I'm pretty happy about the changes.

As "sidekick" I'm guess she will be as silent as the ones already in the game? Kinda sad they never say a word at all.

Looks like generic Diablo clone.

Oh no. I want to replay the game, but this kind of stuff makes me just delay everything and then I will lose motivation.

Are the mods working "on the fly"? E.g. what happens if I already visit that trader from your mod, will the item still appear? I've done a quick look and couldn't find it, despite putting the overwrite folder, etc. into xxx_Data folder.

Not saying it's a bad thing, just saying that it doesn't look like Rage to me... at all. :>

Well that trailer looks completely different to what Rage was, so I wouldn't expect there to be much connection, except for a couple weapons and enemy types maybe. It's probably going to be like old Prey and new Prey, or old Return to Castle Wolfenstein and the new ones, etc. I'm pretty sure this is going to be a Mad Max, Borderlands and Fallout mix, set in the Rage universe.

Oi, did you chose your item ID randomly or is there some reason behind it? Just trying to understand how crap works right now.

Huh, never ever would I have expected to see a new Rage game. But looks like they are turning it into some sort of Borderlands. Eh..

Just finished Yoga Fire. Took me 46 hours according to Steam.... Played Battletech for 74 hours and Hunt: Showdown for 85 hours... in the past 1 1/2 months? I really should get back to doing something useful.... Liked PoE2 quite a lot because of the setting, etc. It does have a lot of unused potential, though. I'm recognizing all the usual modern-day rpg quest mechanics in it as well, especially Obsidians footprint. No matter the writing, in its core it does somehow always feel kinda same-y, but "normal people" (unfamiliar with at least a bit of game quest design) probably wouldn't notice it, I guess. It's waaaay too easy. Thing is, just cranking up the difficulty wouldn't be the right thing to do either. It'll just make all combat tedious again... it's a really though topic, to be honest. I want some challenges... sometimes... and other times I just want to steamroll stuff. Anyway, I'm too tired to write more right now. Gotta hit the bed.
