Welcome to the modern era of AAA game that are designed to be an endless source of monetization thru "game services". Can't sell "game services" if your game doesn't use said services.

Sooooo no character sheet or viewable damage range still ehh? I also still guess they went for that dumbed down atk and def stat on everything huh?

It's possible the damage is just a static amount instead of a damage range? They did say they want to display all kinds of info, but it might be they just don't have too many things to display to start with. Ultimately I don't think it's that bad but that tends to make rares pretty boring when you have very few stats, although I guess their intent is probably to just have everyone in legendaries/mythic gear anyway like D3.
Wouldn't focus too much on this shit right now though since the game is so far away that they themselves don't really know what will make it or what they want the game to be, these systems could change a fair bit. I doubt they'll go for more complex than D3 however, and possibly simpler.

...but you’re still moving around at warp speed and killing the whole map with a single ability use.
The build possibilities are neat but in the end it’s too much to balance and the gameplay suffers for it.

Not me, since it’s never occurred to me to try a game at version THREE point SEVEN to check if the dogshit combat/feel have improved.

This is my primary frustration with “online-only.” I’ve always been a hardcore player, as that threat of loss is the only thing keeping the game interesting for me beyond one playthru.
After losing 3 chars to disconnects in D3, I pretty much soured on that shit forever. Why NOT allow an offline mode? Fucks.

Thats the best part of PoE. There is a lot to do in the end game and you can set your own goals doing what is meaningful for you. People play slow builds due to disability with great success in the end game.

I dont think they should copy PoE. If this game has an endgame that lets you do more than run rifts or bounties, crafting, trading and allows you to have flexibility in build choices, I will give it a shot.

Don't forget about the cancelled D3 expac. Also a class was cancelled as well if I'm not mistaken?
They pulled all support for D3 years ago.

So moving at a slow speed while killing the map with a single button press? Hell, many builds you don’t even press a single button...unless you count turning your auras on.

You don't have to kill the whole map in a single button press if you don't want to.

You dont have to go fast in PoE but I don't know why you wouldn't want to be at lightspeed. Once I started viewing APRG as time management games and making an effort to be as efficient as possible with my game time, Ive had more success.
My experience with POE's endgame is very limited, but isn't the entire point of it to clear maps as fast as possible to earn currencies to buy the shit you need for your build?

Very true. Also super early in development I'm sure

You can make lab runs, run maps (farming low maps or completing your atlas), farm Atziri, farm Shaper, Uber Elder or breaches. You can run delve, temples, syndicates and Zana maps. You're trying to improve your gear but lots of options to do it.

Game looks great. Really looking forward to a return to the og diablo gothic aesthetic.
looks like josh Mosquera and the old leads were behind that whole look then. The new leads are olds school d2 diehards that were hired from the community.
