i played the beta and felt like i got enough, can just wait for the microsoft deal to go through and play it free on gamepass end of year
I imagine they'll start implementing this stuff this go-around with Diablo. It's pretty obvious that MTX are going to be a big part of D4, which is exactly how GGG makes its money - selling MTX every season.IDK why they dont adopt POEs seasonal gimmick of league content. I mean, maybe they will? But IMO this is the way to go. For one its a great test bed for different content, because if its shit you just grin and bear it for the season and its gone the next. And if its great content that every body loves you just fold it or parts of it into the actual game. And second it keeps the game fresh from league to league. Its also a graet marketing opportunity like POE and GGG does with its leagues.

Like it or hate it, at least PoE directly gives you the capability of adjusting that. Curious to see what they do with end game in a couple months
Couple pages back I was told PoE was pure dogshit and not the current standard for RPGs the last decade or so. Of course anyone with a function brain would copy everything they could from PoE dumb it down, polish the shit out of it and be lauded as the best Blizzard game release in the last 20 years.
Which is a huge problem? This is a video game, not a fucking spreadsheet simulator. Plus the game visually looks like hot dogshit - it makes the new POS Nintendo games look high fidelity.POE is a great game it just suffers from literally having TOO much fucking content. which they should have purged some of over the years. The only problem POE has it is mindblowingly difficult for any fresh player to get into without reading 1000 pages of wikis or watching 100 hours of youtube.
So consensus on the pre-orders? Any of them worth it? Also anyone definitely playing day one early launch?
Eh, not sure the premium for early access is worth anything unless you just want to play early. Season 1 won't even start for 6-8 weeks I think. Other than that, not really unless you love cosmetics? I paid for early access because I had a blast in the beta's and there's nothing to play currently unless you're a gay nintendo nerd.
Yeah true, I'll be in discord Thursday night like a bitch crying about login servers no doubtIf it was only the early access then I would agree that just buy the base version of the game since the early access is pretty worthless in the grand scheme of things. However since the battlepass will probably cost you $20 the first season anyways you might as well.
Game is the definition of a mediocre ARPG. With that being said, i'll be in Discord day 1 early access with most of you fucks in spite of that because the real value of the game is getting to play with some forum bros for a week and titles that allow for that are seldom these days.
