Ideally I would push this release to the Tuesday before GamesCon
The ARPG community is surprisingly small in total, thatâs why you see posts about PoE in LE Forums, posts about Torchlight Infinite in PoE forums and posts about LE in D4 forums.
The same players play them all often, and some enjoy one type more then the other. Makes comparisons still happening often.
So we have the date and season trailer but when can we expect more infos on the content, new builds, builds adjustments, etc.? Seems a bit off but Iâll keep my fingers crossed for now.
i find it sad that undecember isnt even considered in many âd-likeâ lists. itâs decent and the boss battles can be nail biting. but its grindy/p2w madness.
Yes, because of the p2w madness.
People are sick of that, people are generally sick of any type of monetization which is not fully customer friendly and it becomes ever more severely visible.
Thatâs why Iâm one of the few people even mentioning Torchligh Infinite⌠they got functional payments as well, hence p2w stuff. So despite it being a great game people avoid it heavily.
Yeah Undecember and Torchlight:Infinite are worth trying but I would never recommend them solely because of how P2W they are. Undecember also has a really long and boring campaign that you can only skip parts of by paying.
I would never return to Undecember if they did something about the campaign. And despite having fun I wouldnât return to TL:I unless they removed the P2W pets. Iâd rather play ARPGs where better drops arenât locked behind a paywall.
if talking about game systems, i quite like TLI. After selecting a base hero, youâre practically classless. you could be a melee mage per se.
the base heroâs traits tho are too tailored towards a certain playstyle/class. youâd be a fool not to just optimize and avoid weird builds such as melee mage.
i actually defended TLI for a huge part. you can get very far in the game without the p2w pets. but it gnaws at me. making me feel unsatisfied that i cant âfullyâ optimize my build without dropping a gazillion bucks.
i would also add, maxroll actually dropped all coverage of their game as maxroll actually kept talking with the devs to remove the p2w aspect. XD kept giving âempty assurancesâ and finally maxroll had enough and just removed TLI from their site.
personally i would say its decent. but we expect more. the boss battles can feel very skillbased, but some bosses just feels unfair.
besides the p2w aspect you NEED to drop 100usd or so just to cover all the QoL upgrades.
as for the rune system⌠its crazy. to fully upgrade a rune as a f2p player, it may take what? 1-3 months?
XD also lied, and had content creators lie, about the P2W nature of the game right before launch. They work hard every season but they are still a chinese company with chinese values in the gaming sphere.
initially when i first played it i saw the basic âpetsâ vs the premium ones as âgeneric benefitsâ vs âspecializedâ
but later i realized thats not too accurate. if u dump a lot of cash and get level a pet to the max you get so much benefit. also, having specialized pets in itself meant you could get higher stats where it mattered more easily rather than if you didnt p2w.
i want to love the game but i simply cant because of the p2w nature.
That was a juicy one, traveler!
I hope there will be changes in the loot filter for custom sounds, we need dopamine overload
Looks Great
Very Nice
Poe should honestly be a banned word in game and the forums, so tired of seeing it.
So you wouldnât want to see any contrasting & comparing LE with other arpgs to improve it?
randomly bro have you tried forcing anti aliasing off (do it in card settings as i found it went back on sometimes)? Give it a jam, I know you said low settings but often people dont tinker with AA, i couldnt throw traps without stutters, turned it off smooth as silk
Donât wanna be that guy but if you know you donât have a lot of time because life happens just pick one character and finish that one, itâs dumb to start many different characters when you know youâll not be able to finish a single one of them
The journey is the most fun part for some people, even though they donât reach a certain point in progression.
LE has one, if not the best progression and pacing in terms of skills, passives, power out of all ARPGâs in my opinion and leveling a character is always super fun, because there is always the next thing ahead of you that you will unlock soon.
Also sticking to one character can lead to upgrades and progress getting much slower, because the later in progression you get the longer it takes for most upgrades to happen.
So if you have little time, playing new and fresh characters can feel better from a progression standpoint, because upgrades and unlocks come much faster.
Hmmm, just give me a 40k Space Marine.
