All gear, save game, etc. is lost? Nah, you're 'just' bumped to the normal league - but there are better drops etc on hardcore, due to some of the boss modifiers etc, so that's why people wanna stay.

All gear, save game, etc. is lost? Yeah, unlike the Diablo games, your character is just converted to non-hardcore. Takes away most of the fun...but so does insta-dying because of lag. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

majestic Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Back when I played Path of Exile (there were three acts back then, heh) I had a glass cannon flicker strike build going for a while. It was probably the most fun aRGP build I ever played but the lag and desyncing was insane. I died to enemies that I didn't even see. No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

That's luckily cleared up, the latency is awesome - on top of that, they fixed the biggest issue since then - you can buy skill gems now! :D and the flicker strike glass cannon is still a viable build.. 1 Fortune favors the bald.

Obsidian sucks Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Started my second playthrough of SMT Nocturne. I figured I should play something to keep me from buying Grimoire until it gets a GOG release. Still, discovering Grimioures world before all the guides come out is very tempting. I beat Nocturne the first time, but I did not invade hell so Im looking forward to that and getting a different ending. I chose the neutral path like a chump the first time through. Im into new game plus with my Amazon in Dragons Crown. Once I figured out how to turn off the NPC characters I really started enjoying the game. Easy to pick up, do a few rounds and put down. 1 Deviant Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonicMage117 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Sadly, I don't have time for hardcore games with super high difficulty and perma-death like Diablo 3. I realize there is an argument because you always see me here on the forum but I'm always on my phone whether for work, contacts or stuff like this. I'm not too much at the desk. Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrath of Dagon Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 Finally was able to do a mission in "Death to Spies" without watching a play through first. It's a WW2 infiltration/assassination game about Soviet SMERSH. Of course was only able to get the bad outcome, the good outcome seems incredibly difficult. Witcher 3: At level 16 but still doing level 12 quests. RPG systems, character progression in particular, are kind of weak. Writing and quest design are very good though, enjoying it a lot overall. Helped once I figured out when you use Witcher Sight, it shows you clue locations on the mini-map, before felt like tedious filler. Grim Dawn: Clickity-click but surprisingly a lot of fun in small doses, try to play it once in two weeks or so. Expedition Viking: Didn't really see the point of changes made from Conquistador at first, but getting used to the new game play now. It's quite involving so far, makes you want to keep playing. Seems like there should be a defense skill in addition to shields though.

Blodhemn Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Lol, I just did a quick playthrough of HL2 episode 1, and by that I'm talking 3-4 hrs content max. I remember everyone hating it since it was so short but I didn't remember it being quite that short. Amazing that thing was even sold. Unreal, but a good glimpse into the future of DLC ripoffs.

Bartimaeus Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Definitely on the short side, but uh...didn't it release for fairly cheap? Quote How I have existed fills me with horror.

Blodhemn Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Short side is an understatement. It's basically a long demo. Cheap? Eh, stand alone price was $20 or get it in a bundle. Not exactly a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I "only" have the expansions left. I expect another 50-60 hours. One of the expansions, IMO, works better before the end of the main story. The second one is a nice epilogue type thing as one final quest.

Unreal, but a good glimpse into the future of DLC ripoffs.Meh, I always believed that quality of content beats its quantity - and when it comes to EP1, I've finished that one like 4 times when it was released. Then again, it didn't really bring anything new to HL2, and it most definitely does not stand up to comparison with content of Orange Box.

Just screwing around with the ragdoll physics is fun for a bit, and hanging out with Alyx, but it just seemed like a Valve cash grab, ultimately. Also interesting to compare the gaming landscape of the times and with today's ultra cheap sale prices thanks to none other than the same company.

Competitive really is crap, leavers and throwers along with the usual toxic people make it a wonderful experience. Why has elegance found so little following?

Hawke64 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Completed the 6th PT of Tyranny (dual-wielder, NG+, PotD). The difficulty curve is pretty much the same as on Normal (by 1/4 of Act II the player is unstoppable). Glad to see the magic system re-balanced. Completed the 2nd PT of Pyre. Great game, but the combination of single save per PT and RNG is annoying. Got "Enlightened" achievement (defeated Master-level AI). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
