Every-time I'm reminded of vanilla Diablo 3 I just remember Diablo had a female form during 3 and they gave him high heels and wide hips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLNb0Jd4_ws&t=158s

Mephisto is way creepier in game than in any outside the game art displays with that kind of ethereal aura around him. The Diablo 3 bitching thread was the best thread in this sub too bad kewpuh is super stupid and misunderstood a post and nuked it.

I mean I like the idea of diablo's form being different based on who they possess, but lmao at heels.

Oh same, it's a neat idea and it leaves room for cool redesigns. But also: bone-boobs and heels.

In keeping with that theme they should retcon the first game's Diablo into being a bratty little Lord Fauntleroy demon with a big lollipop who yells "I SHANT" a lot.

It was also extremely funny because Marvel Heroes was in testing around that time, Brevik made that game, and while Marvel Heroes was not the best ARPG of all time it was a pretty solid & fun game. Real unfortunate what happened with licensing & publishers. Khorne fucked around with this message at 00:34 on Aug 22, 2020 |

Kith posted:How was Marvel Heroes, anyways? All I really wanted out of it was "Marvel Ultimate Alliance: Except More" and I had always intended to pick it up at some point, but never got around to it for various life-shaped reasons. It was a mixed bag but the F2P was really good and I got a lot of people into it based on how easy it was to unlock new characters. All the characters felt like you were actually playing that character. Guys like Gambit and Cable had dodges, while units like Juggernaut could do invulnerable for a while. Each character had a super move and some of them were just amazing. Dr.Doom for example threw himself a parade where he'd get carted around the area for a while on a throne by doombots while everything exploded around him. Punisher would call his van and drive it around dealing damage. Rogue was my early favorite because you'd literally use a "touch" attack on enemies and rather than having a skill tree of your own, you mostly copied other players/bosses powers. Captain America could throw his shield and have it bounce of 50 minions and while it was bouncing around he'd have brawling skills he could use. Storm would just roam midtown with a lightning storm constantly around her, zapping everything in sight. The voice acting was great. The story was there, but nothing special. The core gameplay loop was pretty fun, but the drop rates on good items were frustratingly low so you'd be running the same stuff over and over for that certain unique item you wanted on all your characters. The character skin system was great, and each guy had a range of cosmetic stuff. First thing that made me spend money on the game was the Steve Rogers Super Soldier outfit, then after that it was like Gambit as Death, God Emperor Doom, everything you could think of was probably there. Each character usually had 2 builds: Doom for example could spec into pets and summon lots of robots to handle everything, or you could go energy damage and just focus on blasting things. Deadpool could focus on guns or melee weapons. So the game had a huge roster of playable characters with a bit of depth on each one. The bad of the game was that the art was on occasion extremely ugly, although it never looked too bad at range. The content was very repetitive and the major events were very slow to release but they were usually good. There were lots of bugs though, characters weren't balanced the best but they didn't always nerf everything that was overpowered but when a character sucked or was broken it took them a long time to get to fixing it. Kind of the worst situation with F2P games in that everything that could make money was prioritized over fixing/adjusting current content. Last time I played the game they had just implemented controlled support and it felt really good as the Hulk, but definitely wasn't very smooth as ones that needed to quickly target AOEs. So if you wanted an Ultimate Alliance type feel, it got there closer to the end of the game's life cycle but really it depended who you played.

The game was kind of a janky mess (the Omega system  ) and once you got over the initial joy of feeling like Wolverine you realized 99% of characters controlled the same with different animations, but the game FELT a joy to play and the loop was satisfying, which is what really matters.There were tons of different activities, from standard ARPG maps to hero defense to what was essentially an endless boss rush in Midtown Manhattan. Defense didn't matter - no resists to worry about and even many bosses were toothless, so you were free to focus on blowing up the screen as efficiently as possible, which is a philosophy I'd love to see in another ARPG. The few unique characters, like Rogue and Dr. Strange, really did stand out. But the crown jewel was movement. Every character could either dash, teleport or fly more or less forever with no restrictions. Some characters attacked with their movement skills! The real death of the game was when all this crazy movement was gutted in favor of modern-style short dashes with a significant cooldown, which destroyed the amazing sense of momentum and with it, the fun. RIP to a real one.

Only if spamming basic units with the AFK base is a vastly more effective tactic than whatever idiotic ploy the actual RT player would do if he was still playing.

Tubgoat posted:Finally recaptured that classic WarCraft III feel. For real. Back in the day, I got decent at min-maxing my early game and tried to play enough matches for a cool account icon. It was an absolute waste of time. I gave up because I spent more time queueing -> ally flips their poo poo that I made The Wrong Building or Put The Building In Wrong Place -> ally leaves or just having them AFK until drop etc. I spent the vast majority of my time on that, and rarely had a fun game with people that would play the game and coordinate with me. I had real life friends that played WC3, but they would never play ladder. 100% custom maps. I didn't complain, because I loving love custom maps.

Congratulations, Blizzard, my purpose-made gaming laptop now chugs on the main screen, and this loving computer was able to run the game before they fixed it so that it could almost run on computers that were new when Frozen Throne was released.
