My Diablo 3 account still has my monk that I created at launch and stopped playing long before Loot 2.0. I could reinstall and still try to kill a fallen with the pieces of poo poo he has equipped. Holy loving poo poo, items were such garbage in the early days.

You don't really have to concentrate on the spider bot. Doing most seasonal things will get you the stones for it. It can be handy to have for healing or helping to proc Vulnerable / Bleeding / Etc on monsters. Doing Nightmare Vaults gets you XP, glyph XP, and stones so it'll happen naturally. Set it up once with the stuff you got and forget about it for a while.

Everyone is free to have preferences but I really don't understand all the hate for the seasonal model here lately. Any character in an arpg is gonna get dull on a long enough timeline. Seasons encourage people to try other stuff. Do people really get so attached to one character? Is it just all the crappy live service poo poo? I find seasons a good incentive to come back and see something novel plus try a class or spec I never played. I played D3 for over a decade on and off and never even got around to playing like twenty percent of the builds you could play, and that game had sets which ended up limiting your options significantly. Not a knock I thought they were fun.

I played D3 for over a decade on and off and never even got around to playing like twenty percent of the builds you could play, and that game had sets which ended up limiting your options significantly. Not a knock I thought they were fun. seasons (and more specifically seasonal resets) are kinda a net neutral and they're probably stronger for games that have a ton of stuff to do and skew towards very hardcore playerbases for whom the reset is more of a speedbump than an actual reset. like I enjoy them for certain games, but idk how many games you could staple a season onto and actually improve the game. they're probably most necessary for games that have significant player economies... which D4 doesn't so it's kind of a weird fit for d4. it's a genre convention to have them (albeit I'd argue an unexamined one) and it synergizes well with the game-as-a-service development model so it's kind of inevitable that d4 is going to have seasons tldr, the upside is that they get people replaying different builds and poo poo, but they're detrimental if your playerbase is actually so casual that they're playing normal person amounts of time, like a couple of hours a couple of days a week Paying2Lurk posted:Embrace impermanence, play Hardcore. ^^^^^ x1000 Herstory Begins Now fucked around with this message at 19:05 on Apr 23, 2024 |

I started playing this on gamepass and am having a blast with a firewall sorc. The story I ended up skipping through to be honest I found it pretty boring and hated the forced dialog and cutscenes. Other than that I'm having a great time just burning fools to death. My first unique drop were the boots that work with my ultimate skill and I can run faster than a mount if I evade.

I too have played PoE I get it, and I imagine if I didn't start with a month to go and the campaign to run through it'd be fine. My eyebrows have stopped raising now I see renown carries over

Inarius does stab her with his spear before you fight. So she should be injured/weaker. She's also not even a lesser evil and we waxed two of those by the time we get to her.

Still undercuts Act 5 a bit. "We need a soul stone to even think of taking on Lilith!" Barbarian: nah bro it's cool I'm gonna swing my hammer REALLY hard today.

is farming act bosses in diablo 2 a metacommentary on the fruitlessness of the horadrims efforts to make a permanent soulstone? have we ever stopped killing then to see if there's a kinda reverse MGSV situation where they finally reform enough to take over all of sanctuary?

it's actually quite useful from a capitalist perspective to have a bunch of massive loot pinatas stuck in caves

Yes, Mephisto in particular has been slowly getting more and more powerful with every shako and arachnid belt he drops.

I liked the Rebirth model they used in D3, so even though you were still starting over at level 1 you still had continuity with characters. And then, of course, they didn't let you do it enough times to do it with every class.
