12 TOPICS with replies for the current month. 12 total. This game is in big trouble if people cant even be bothered to care on the forums anymore with posts.
Season 5 is lacking. Its been a long time away and its not enough. Bugs have rendered D4 basically retired now. Semi-Maintenance mode until D5. Bugs are also the plague of LE. Interactions and skills and items all left broken. Streamers dont care about game anymore. Players dont care about game to post in forums anymore. Latest reviews are sill MIXED on steam. What is Krafton going to do to turn this game around? Season 5 isnt it. That was a long wait for a yawn and a half. We are on life support and desperately need a new vision and commitment to quality.
Most people donât use the forums anymore (which is sad, but itâs a different issue). Other information channels are still lively, especially discord. There are dozens of suggestions and feedback there in this month alone, besides all the general/help chatter going on.
So trying to infer the health of LE by the forums will be misleading, at best.
This forum was never ever active, even during the very high times, like 0.9.2 leading up to release and after release.
I donât think Seasin 5 is lacking, it brings exactly what I want to LE, more horde-style mechancis to give more mob density. And improving/finte-tuning what LE has, because the foundation is still very strong.
Leading this into LE:O with the upcoming Skill Sigils I think LE just tries to lean into what they are doing great and trying to further captilize on that.
Even with all the drama and bad stuff happening around the game and the devs, LE still has some of the best ideas of any ARPG. They just sometimes lack in executing or implementing them.
But things like the Crafting, the Legendary and the Skill System are to this day very good and they can keep building on them.
Because Steam Reviews really say alotâŚ
Especially with any game that had some outside drama revolving around it, steam reviews always drop massively, even though the game hasnât changed or worsened by any capacity.
Theyâve pretty much put all of their chips into the expansion, paid class, and console port. They are most definitely expecting to see a good ROI for their purchase.
I agree that Season 5 isnât anything special and it will probably be the first season I skip completely, unless a build jumps out at me that looks fun and fairly strong. How about a necro zoo build that works as well as the other necro builds that force you to limit the number of summons and/or types?
Itâs going to take an overhaul of the dull monolith system to get me excited to return. Iâve mostly written this game off though. Itâs never once felt addictive to me like other ARPGs. And now their weekly streams and teasers donât really work on me anymore.
Thatâs a very poor way of measuring playersâ interest. Youâll have a much better way in less than a week, when we see how many concurrent players the next season will begin at. If we continue with the current pattern, it will peak at 20.000 players, which is very low.
Another âLE is deadâ post, not very original these days. Just enjoy season 5 (or donât). Maybe check it out after the next release, LEO, season 6, the major expansion.
