The biggest issues with this genre is that it never grew past diablo 2, the lack of any kind of level/encounter design and the huge focus on character growth and customization with gear, skill trees, passives and dozens of other systems without any thought given to how it actually plays beyond how good it looks and how quickly you can clear rooms.
It's gotten so bad that the currently most popular games treat their own campaign as just a tutorial to breeze through to get to the endgame grinding mill.

I have tried over and fucking over to get into these games but the only one that was good was Diablo 1. Diablo 2 is boring as shit and far too easy. I already kills most enemies in a few hits, so you're making me grind for however many hours to get gear to make it even easier? Diablo 1 was a spoopy dungeon crawler with amazing atmosphere, 2 being all about grinding and loot is just so fucking lame. How do you subhumans play this game for so long? It's the same shit over and over.

It's a rather silly thing, a numbers go up turned up to 11. You start with ass bare and clearing the very first area of the first act will be a threshold on its own. The progression is very slow, but that's the point of it.
The juice of the mod is cube shenanigans, there are shitloads of things you can do and make with it, and you will need a lot of reagents for it so usually even basic trash loot can be put to use.
I don't think your class will make that much difference and you can roll whatever you're comfortable with, the skill trees are mostly the same except each new spell unlocks 5 levels later so it'll be a good while before you reach even the middle of the skill tree.
This mod is all about spending a lot of time on your character and the dev went all in with the idea. If you want to glimpse the extent of pure autism he put into it, here's the manual https://www.moddb.com/mods/zy-el-trial-by-fire/downloads/zy-el-version-44-mod-guide
>>
>>733217596
Not only do I hate the controls I really dislike the loot mechanic of "99% of shit you find is meaningless trash".

I MUCH rather prefer a lower amount but in return more bespoke selection of unique items with unique behavior. So the Warframe approach.

I third this. After playing it with a mouse for 20 years a controller felt like a whole new experience. It's also so much easier to use multiple skills since you can assign them to buttons and use them instantly, feels great on classes that don't just mostly spam the same skill.

Indeed. Fags like OP will never get it - it's about overall gameplay feeling and how everything was working well together. You had engaging gameplay for entire game, from start to finish, intuitive but also flashy active skills, everyone could play, even kids who didn't know English, go forward, kill dudes, get better skills and items, have fun. Random generation and respawns ensured that you could even start game after work and house stuff, play for half an hour killing some boss and close the game with satisfaction. Plus it was fairly intense and fast.

Later games completely forgot what made Diablo II so good. It's always about "muh endgame", "muh builds", "muh competitive multiplayer", trying to reinvent the wheel while making gameplay convoluted, boring, too focused on grind and many other flaws. Closest ones were Grim Dawn and Path of Exile but even they had lots of flaws (Grim Dawn was boring past 3/4 of base game and no random generation, Path of Exile had absurdly huge passives tree and odd gameplay choices plagued by mentioned minmaxing tryhards and their "MUH MAX LEVEL ENDGAME BUILD").

I will never understand this dogshit design in arpgs
just zoom out enough and make it so all spells are within the confine of the screen
and even in the case your spells don't go off screen you still have to edge it to the point you can't see what you're attacking half the time

All ARPG eventually boil down to supporting a single offensive skills + movement option + buffs. Using a variety of skills in "rotation" isn't efficient, cooldowns are situational.
>>
>>733230232
I play casters because spells can't miss in Diablo 2 and no matter how much attack rating you get you will only ever have a 95% chance to hit as phys/melee. and that 95% chance to hit does not feel like 95% more like 70-80%.

the skeletons click for you so you don't have to, the lazy man's build
main idea of it is to support skelechads with curses and corpse explosion. corpse explosion's damage is based on enemy life so this build effectively clears with 0 gear and requires no grinding really other than resetting akara for a +3 skeleton wand(not technically required)

>>733233175
d3 combat is basically exactly the same as d2 though, all you do is spam 1 skill and the character building/development is simply watching a number go up and incredibly boring by comparison
the only difference is you have some cds/support skills that you never need to use or you take the passive versions

>>733233313
a lot of people seem to want to grind to max gear everything instead of grinding a small amount until you can comfortably clear hell/dclone/ubers and then quit until you feel like a replay or a new ladder season, etc.

you are the only delusional one. last time i played d3 i made a crusader and used 1 button to move and 1 button to attack and nothing else. basically every class played like that, which is also exactly how d2 plays

I hate how so much of arpg progression is tied up in items.
Grinding for 1 in a million item drops feels like shit. Grinding for crafting reagents and enchants to fiddle with items once you have them feels like shit. Having your level 999 hero be fucking useless without the right items feels like shit. It doesn't have to be like this.

More likely a ladder after that. He is strong but I think some other builds are still faster. It's not a competitve game so they don't have to rush any balance changes.

>>733237084
Chase items only matter at endgame, if your build needs hyper-rare gear to function it is a meme build or something richfags just trade for.

No? Most single player games don't do that? Gachas make you pay, but not for this kind of QoL, more about time saving than anything else.

But ARPG-ggers? You have no respect for yourselves. Paying for stashes and similar qols... I'll laugh the day a new arpg will have loot filters behind paywalls... You are teaching these game companies that you'll buy anything.

What's your point? What matters is whether the game is actually enjoyable or not, and in D2's case, it is. I also cannot see core gameplay alternations that would make me enjoy it more, since I like ARPGs in general, even if it's something that lacks the great visuals and music Diablo has.

That would've been a spinoff then, not a proper sequel, and it would've been derivative of the souls genre. There's also the fact that some people enjoy ARPGs more than rollgames.
You think Diablo is a cool setting wasted on mid gameplay. From my point of view, those are the Souls games that I only complete because I like the aesthetics, and never touch again. Diablo meanwhile can be genuinely addicting to play past the endgame.

Popular games signify a high chance you'll enjoy the gameplay, because unlike most other media, an indie game on a shoestring budget can become a smash hit based on that alone.
Take Minecraft for example. I never gave a shit about it, but I can recognize the appeal (lego blocks). Same thing applies here. One of the most simple games ever made, Tetris, which is popular to this day mogs certain current AAA titles.

miasma’s a dud if you build around it like it’s your main damage button, yeah. it’s clearly meant to be a 1pt wonder for the debuff and move on. people see “poison cloud” and expect nova-tier screenwipe when it’s more like pre-buffing trash for your actual nukes.

the rest of his tree is solid as fuck though. the curse synergies are stupid strong and the melee sustain is way better than druid ever got. if anything he feels overtuned early and then levels out once you hit hell and everything has 95% resist like usual.

calling the whole class bad because one skill sucks is peak /v/ brain. every D2 tree has at least one complete dogshit trap. that’s tradition at this point.
