Hello folks!
Well…I played Diablo 2 quite alot, then I played Titan Quest, after that I played Grim Dawn for more than 220 hours and not so long ago I tried to play Path of Exile. Alas…I am feeling myself disappointed. Don’t get me wrong. All of the above mentioned games are great and very interesting but there was one thing which constantly breaking my spirits. This is the basic lack of information. I hate spoilers and backseating and always refer to official information and my own reasoning. And regards to this I have several questions questions regards to the Last Epoch (and I have a great expectations regards to this game):
Will you make an official manual for this game which will explain many basic things and some advanced? The last game which had a decent manual was Diablo 2 and Lord of Destruction addon. Grim Dawn also had quite good official game’s guide on their official website albeit it was quite obscure in some explanations and had no visual representations (PoE have this and this is really a good idea);
What will be the status of this game? Should I be always online? I think that maybe you should do the same thing as Diablo 2. Completely separate offline and online characters;
What about the blood and gore in this game? Hopefully we will have a lot of it and without bodies disappearing fast like in Grim Dawn. I watched several videos and noticed that there is no blood at all and the bodies are disappearing. If this is true that it is the way worse than even in Titan Quest where we had no blood and that was a huge drawback;
Are you planning to implement some mechanisms (at least for multiplayer) which will completely destroy even the slightest opportunity for macroses and cheating in offline and online?
Are there any levels of difficulty in this game?
Thanks in advance for any honest answers! Feeling really passionate towards your game guys!
There’s an in-game game guide (G) that should explain most things.
No, once MP releases there will be online play like PoE/D3 but you’ll also be able to create offline characters & play without needing an internet connection at all (not even for logging in).
It’s likely impossible to completely prevent cheating if there’s a determined person. They’re also unlikely to talk much about it other than an acknowledgement that they’re aware of the issue & are working on it.
Kinda no, there’s Masochist mode which is significantly harder, but apart from that to get harder content you either push the arena which scales infinitely or you do the monolith & stack corruption (which has no cap in the empowered monoliths, corruption increases the hp & damage mobs have).
I should probably welcome you to the forums, but I’m not a people person, so I’m sure you’ll survive until someone else does it…
I see but PoE also have in-game guide which explains some things but not in big details and they don’t explain some basic things which are not evident for all people. For instance, you can zoom in and out the area map in PoE with + and - buttons on numerical keyboard but the game tells you nothing about this basic function. Also I found no explanation for the graphical settings of the game. Some of them are explained in the options menu but the others are mystery without any explanations and you should guess or otherwise ask via the Internet and this is bad if you’ll have to do it.
That’s why I think that this will be a HUGE advantage if this game will have a very good explanations and presentation for everything.
Great! But honestly it scares me that this game will have some sort of an endless game inside of it. It will always leave you with the feeling that you did not finished the campaign.
