They're really desperate what the fuck hahahahahahahahahahaha
POE2 really has set a new standard
have they done anything since release?>t. hasnt played since blazing through the campaign during release week and then promptly dropping it after realizing the terrible post story loop
>>696960825>NOOOOO BRAND NAME SAVE MEEEEEEEfuck em
>>696960825They sent me a survey after POE2 launched to know what'll make me come back and one of the question was "would you be interested of transferring an eternal character to the current season" fucking disgusting
>>696960825kek power pass and bonuses just like one of these shitty korean mmo
>>696960825Zoomer here. Is Diablo a PoE like game? Kinda looks similar.
Wow, they are giving me the gift of not having to play the game?
>>696962181It's a hack'n'slash yeah, Diablo 2 was peak but then it went all wrong
>p-please play our game and buy the battle pass and the s-shiny mounts
>>696960825>Eternalwowits fucking nothing
>>696962286Come back nigga, don't even need to play the game we'll level up your character for you
>>696960825>israel pm calls you to hellwhat the fuck did they mean by this????
>>696962181Path of Exile got popular because it had a reputation for being "the real Diablo 3."
>>696960825>yo bro just skip the whole gameis it not an admission of a shit game to have something like "just level to max lol"?
People are retarded, they mentioned this a couple weeks agoIt has nothing to do with PoE2
>>696962726Yea man100% nothing to do with PoE2which released a few days agoand was only known to come into existence last weekyou absolute dogshit huffing retard
>>696960825>eternal>only 50Why fucking bother.
>>696962181Zoomers calling Diablo games PoE like has a certain kind of irony that is a perfect epitaph for Shitzzard's Diablo series
for the love of god tell me its not a free booster pack it would be fucking hilarious
I'm seeing zoomers unironically think Diablo is a POE rippoff out in the open. It's actually incredible. Blizzard deserves this tenfold
>>696960825>Nethanyahu calls to youuh-ho
>>696960825ONONONO AHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA
Should I try Diablo 4 though? Everyone is shitting on poe 2 so might as well give this one a try.
>PAY MONEY TO SKIP THE GAMESimplest way to know its a dogshit game
i feel like d4 was irrelevant a month after launch
>>696961439korean mmos aren't as grindy though, unironically.
>>696962996Gaming Journalists have unironically started calling ARPG Exile-likes since Diablo 4 is just a shoddy Lost Ark clone and D3 was over a decade ago.Meanwhile POE keeps on chugging
>>696964197it was irrelevant right after that open beta they did, which highlighted how shit the game was
>>696963518>>696962996You mean like how everyone kept calling the new tomb raider games being uncharted rip offs?
>>696964150>thinks the game is on Eternallol dogshit goyslop shill sunk cost fallacy pajeet shill lmao p2w mtx rofl skinner box humiliation ritual consoomer paypig luigi ishygddt coomer zoomer boomer groomer alpha millennial grummz pronouns woke njudea intelaviv amerishart
>>696964247Yes they are? I was a Nexon f2p refugee, and most if not all their catalogue had p2w shit that was crucial for the most common mechanics in an MMO->Maplestory scroll locks so a failed upgrade attempt didn't break your gun>Mobinogi, Maplestory and DFO having stats on vanity items>Spiral Knights and DFO having gatekeeping stamina mechanics on dungeons>All of the Maplestory 2 runslol fuck OFF, there's a reason why shit like Ragnorok and Maplestory work better on private servers.
>>696960941They released a filler expansion where you fight Mephisto's pet dog
>>696964327You mean after they turned it into a shitty uncharted clone with the nu-trilogy garbage? Yes.
PoE2 is just a shitty Quake 2 clone.
>>696960825Oh boy.Between poe2 and marvel rivals they're taking a hit huh. They made way more money than they deserved with their absolute garbage thanks to "gamer dads" and wow addicts but I guess investors look at quarterlies and won't see numbers going up this time and be like OY VEY WHY ISN'T NUMBER GOIN UP DIS IS A VIDYA GAME HOLOCAUST
>>696962181>3 retards failed to grasp the jokejesus
>>696965389the cia and george soros will keep them alive anyways
1 of every 3 reviews for D4 on Steam are negative
>Play Diablo 4 for hoursget plenty of drops, maybe even enough to try out a different build>Play PoE 2 for hoursdon't even get one single piece of loot that you can apply to your current build>>696964140Yes, try it
>>696964140The longer you play it the more you will hate it>The longer Diablo 4 is on your hard drive the angrier you will become
>>696966232Have you seen the Pajeet taking office that openly has talked about shutting the FBI down? Hes going to be incharge of the FBI. CIA and Soros won't be funding Blizzard anytime soon. Glowniggers are actually in trouble for once and they don't have the time or money to be dealing with video game bullshit
>>696960825No fucking thanks.
>>696966645Hello mam I am fbi agent I'm here to inspect your vegana now open bob bitch lasagna this is a federal investigation
>>696960825I am playing D4 now (have played it before, but did not finish it) and this is the problem - if you pick / apply Welcome Back boost, you will also automatically unlock ALL Lilith temples (God knows why) and you can't erase it. I also do not understand why it's not possible to delete everything and start the game from nothing.Not just that, the game actually recommends you to skip the main game and go for expansion immediately. Fucking lel.But I still won't play PoE2. Ever.
>>696965124Is Diablo still not in the game?
>>696966328To be fair, the Steam version is substantially worse than the bnet version.
>>696967124Diablo has not, nor has ever been, the focal point of the franchise, ironically, even his one time to shine, D3, was ursurped by Mathail.for the entirety of the rest of the franchise, books and all, Mephisto is far more Machiavellian and long term.
>>696966530>hard driveAh, you live in South America. This explains your hate.
>welcome back boost>level 80 boostI fucking hate this shit. Anytime I have ever boosted a character in wow I stop playing it after like two hours.
>>696960825You have to be desperate when an EA game has way more content than your full priced, full game + expansion.
D4 still has the problem right now, of only one class mattering.Spirtborne is 6000x stronger than the other classes, and that isn't even a numerical exaggeration, you can do BILLIONS of damage a hit, and none of the other classes can break 100 million in their best day.
>>696960825They did that last season too, you niggers are so desperate lulJust check this triggered tranny trying so hard >>696962181
>>696964327we never got tomb raider clones did we? The cinematic linear setpiece fest that is the sharted series isn't even remotely similar.
>>696962996>ZoomersYeah, zoomers, not just your retarded triggered tencent shill>>696964323Yeah the game that made more than $1 billion was irrelevant right after that open bet, so irrelevant that they were able to boost poe numbers too.Some of you live in another reality.
>>696967817>billionsHighest I saw is quintillions.>>696967760Imagine shilling this hard for a porn company.
>>696967760> more content lul, 90% of the "content" is recycled shit from poe1
>>696968029yea that's right quintillions, regardless, the other classes can't break 100 million.
>>696960825why are pooeniggers still crying over this dead game?
>>696968218100 million is actually easy. Barbs break a billion regularly.
>>696967668ahh, good morning sirnice day for some acti-blizzard shilling
>>696960825>PLEASE COMEBACK!>WE WILL GIVE YOU FREE STUFF IF YOU DO!>DON'T LEAVE US FOR POE2!!>NOOO!!!
>>696968606Bom dia, senhor! Você está gostando dos seus jogos F2P terríveis que você joga para lidar com sua própria pobreza?
Man... i'm so torn rn between getting this or TW:W3 when the christmas sales hit soon.On one-hand i've been REALLY hankering to play a fast-paced ARPG diablo-like since D2/3, that has a somewhat serviceable story and good loot/dopamine hits but idk with all the negativity around it and endgame viability, 'big hmm'.With Warhammer 3 and all the recent updates/fixes along with the new DLC release soon I'd like to finally bite the bullet on it after so long.PoE2 I figured I'd just wait-it-out till its fully cooked and free.
>>696967990>Some of you live in another realityhardcore players lost interestwithout a group of hardcore players to base your community on and/or to create content/free advertisement for you, general interest will last one month, which it didyou're confusing relevancy and marketing campaigns here
>>696969247Note that no free software has ever been good.
Every D4 thread is always just "BLIZZARD LMAO" but I find it interesting how hard this company/franchise fell and I think it's worth discussing. The best decision they've made was to go back to D3 and just embrace the arcadey gameplay. Then they fail at the execution of that and release what is probably the least purchased ARPG expansion of all time. When normie CohhCarnage is shitting on your new expansion, it's time to abandon whatever your stupid plans are and just give fans what they are asking for, which is a Paladin class and Diablo himself as a damn boss.So the next thing to point and laugh at is how badly they fuck that up. The best thing they can do is release the paladin for free and promise Diablo in another expansion, but I doubt that'll happen.
>>696969407Nah, my most played games this year aside from bannerlord are unironically f2p games. Games are ultimately about killing time and entertaintment and if f2p games succeed in momentarily making you forget about the the entropy of the universe, all is good.
>>696969525Diablo isn't particularly important as an entity in the series, but everything else, yes.
>>696960825He calls to you
so is poe2 good? (i dont play early access games)
>>696968087He didn't say new content retard, content is still content and an EA game has more of it than a game and expansion, which is just sad. The 500k high player count is going to skyrocket when it goes free to play next year
>>696969908The aesthetics and atmosphere imo are really top notch and never lets down just like in poe 1 but the character models are even better. I don't really care much about the build autism but oldtimers say that it's a massive let down compared to the first game.
>>696970295they are not able to comprehend that this is a EA game and all the complexity will be added later.it'll likely never get as wacky overall as POE1, but that's good, because POE1 lets you upend the game rather easily and become unkillable and able to kill everything with a cascading series of abilites that just has you spam 1 button over and over and flood the entire map with damage.at that point it isn't a game but a loot casino.
>>696969247If you make your own build and play through POE2 normally even the base 3 acts will net you 50 hours which pays for itself alone. It's worth the money even if you drop it in a week
>>696969908SAAR PLEASE TO REDEEM THE POE2 IS MENY MUCH GOODS YOU BLOODY BASTARD BITCH BHENCHOD
>>696960825Y'know, PoE II is great and all but it doesn't really scratch that itch that Diablo does. Y'all know what I mean?
>>696964893You fucking moron. How did you manage to miss the point of his post this hard? He's saying that despite how grindy Korean MMOs are, D4 is STILL worse. To illustrate that that's how bad it is.
>>696960825>Blizzard goes "oh shit PoE2 is taking our players, what do we do?">some retard from the WoW team leans around the corner>"WHAT IF WE MADE IT SO THEY PAY US SO THEY DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE TO PLAY THE GAME?!">GENIUS
>>696960825Yes blizzard is fucked in the head, they only care about the “endgame” that’s the thinking of dying Korean mmos to boost you to max/near max
>>696964140PoE2 and D4 play the opposite of each other. PoE2 is trying to be some combo of souls slop mechanics and typical ARPG gameplay, but slowed down to tedious and having unrewarding loot drops. D4 has at least been out long enough to develop an identity current players enjoy and most of the "D4 bad" comments are all based around launch D4, which is nowhere completely different now. PoE2 may be good after at least 3-6 months when they've developed more of it, but for right now its meh and just stressful to play.>t. bought both at launch with expensive editions and hated both at launch but at least warmed up to D4 after they actually listened to feedback
>>696964893God ms2 was such a shame, they fucking ruined it
>>696970573Buddy, no one knows what mean, Diablo hasn't done that since 2, which came out in the year 2000.
>>696970573Kek this is fucking pathetic
>>696970702I mean there's nothing else for them to do, they released their DLC, it sold alright but not enough, and that's it, seasonal Content is meh.its ogre, they don't have the same business model as Path of Exile, they'll never catch up to POE2 ever again.
>>696970793Not a fan of what they did with the witch's voice. I don't know if it's the same voice actress, but she sounds a lot more haggy here in poe 2 compared to being budget alice lidell in poe 1. Her snarky voice and black humor was perfect.
>>696970573It just sounds like Blizz knows assigning a bunch of vfx and sound effects to a loot explosion is a better way to trigger dopamine then what PoE2 does
>>696970793D4 is alright, POE2 is funnerI played 200 hours of D4 overall, and well over 330 hours of POE1.D4 is now "okay", but its too easy to kit out and rarity just isn't a concept, you are showered in only things your class can use, and showered in loads of "rare" shit at all times.it quickly becomes tweaking margins of percentages of increases, the license boards are boring.
My bonestorm blood witch needs buffs NOW
You have brain damage if you're still giving blizzard your money. Supporting that garbage company became totally unacceptable between HOTS and the D2:Re-cencensored release.
I got to maps in poe2It's not really funI can't see shot because of my ability spamSometimes rarest explode on death or do things and I can't see themIf I wasn't freezing everything it would be impossible to clearHonestly mapping is basically the same as poe1 except I am way weaker and slower
>>696971295Sorry but the Vision demands only nerfs until the player counter dwindles enough that Tencent has to call up GGG HQ.
>>696967554>booksThere are diablo books? Is the game based on the books or is it the other way around?
>>696971382If you're not enjoying it, it's alright to stop playing. You're not married to it.
>>696970793>"D4 bad" comments are all based around launch D4the latest expansion was dogshit. the future of d4 is grim.
Honestly after playing PoE2 I'm tempted to try out D4, poe2 just isn't fun. Although i really don't want to spend the money for D4, play for 2 hours then never touch it again.
>>696970793return home.
>>696971382>Honestly mapping is basically the same as poe1 except I am way weaker and slowerThat's what the general consensus seems to be.
>>696971212I think the issue with D4 is that its built around assuming you don't have too much time to dedicate to it with how many choices or lifestyle obligations that come up. If you had to redo a long gearing sequence up every 3 months you'd get burnt out from it fast. I'm not sure how PoE players would drag themselves through that campaign a second time, let alone on every new league. I think they implemented leveling to 300 and the level 100 paragon nodes as means to keep progressing for an extended period beyond minmaxing GA stats.
>>696960825>skip the fun part, go straight to the shitty grind
>>696971590>HOW PATH OF EXILE HELPED ME DISCOVER MY GENDER IDENITY
I gave the game a shot back when the expansion released and the shill machine all said it was much better now.It is not much better. Sure, the game actually works as it is supposed to now. But how it is supposed to work is still fucking boring.
>>696971590>the latest expansion was dogshitStory? YesProgression? No, or at least its better then that shit before it.
>>696960825>>696970573On a scale of 1-10 how terrified is Blizzard right now?>Overwatch is dead and everyone flocked to that Chink Marvel game>Diablo is dead and everyone flocked to POE2>Starcraft is dead because they're retarded and let it die>Heros of the storm was murdered by their own hands for no real reason>Warcraft 3 was killed with a shitty remaster>World of Warcraft classic is kept on life support thanks to addicts playing it again for the 20th time. >World of Warcraft retail is a shadow of its former self played by trannies and addicts who once again say "It's totally good this time." before they move onto "The next expansion will fix everything.">Hearthstone and their shitty mobile games still exist I guess. Lol.
>>696971828Being better than shit doesn't mean something is good.
>>696971776>immediately posts 'jaks with tranny-themed posts
>>696960825I could never finish the D4 campaign without falling asleep, it even happened during boss fights.
>>696971695Played this years ago and fell asleep in the desert area and uninstalled and never went back. Killing wasn't satisfying and the difficulty was even easier then D3. No wonder they sold the IP off to chinks after that last shitshow
>>696971863>Hearthstone still existsCould have fooled me, I've heard nothing about it in ages.
>>696971890So never improve ever. Just stay bad so people can shit on you, got it
>>696972000Whales gonna whale. Don't need a lot of people playing the game when 1000 people buying every new card is still bringing in millions.
>>696971863Hearthstone is gapped hard by YGO/MTGA/the new pokeslopthey genuinely have nothing beside classic wowo wawa
>>696971695I dropped this game twice or thrice before finally powering through because of how boring it was to level from 15 to 40, which is a problem d2 also has
I'd have bought Diablo/Starcraft games if they were ever on sale. They are the apple of video games. Too important to have low prices.
>>696972089Not even close to what I said. Keep projecting chud.
>>696971479yes, and they came out in 2006, and no, the games are not based on the books, the books are prequels that go over the origin of sanctuary that was touched upon in D1 and D2's lore.everything to do with Lilith and Inarius Uldyssian, the Nephilim, all in the books.D3 and D4 were directly spawned from these books.
>>696971584If I wasn't getting random deaths or my maps didn't disappear on death I think I would be having way more fun
>>696971695this one is awful.
>>696972230Submit feedback. Remember, this is week 1 of a beta. A proper beta, not a marketing "beta" like your average AAA slop does. Tons of shit isn't even implemented, and they want to hear what you find shitty. Tell them.
>>696971938That's zana a video game character buddy, some p2e fan you areAre the trannies in the room with us right now?
>>696972361>still posting wojaksGo back to sharty
>>696972198Sounds like it, its like some unreachable standard thats never discosed, its only ever shit or god tier type reasoning. If even one aspect is bad, then the rest of the good parts get ignored and the whole product is bad. Typical for a /v/irgin who uses "chud" unironically.
>>696972316>Remember, this is week 1 of a beta. A proper beta, not a marketing "beta"No you retardThis is the releaseStop coping
>>696972406>its only ever shit or god tier type reasoningPretty funny considering that was your own original argument. Guess you really are a retarded virgin.
>>696972316wrong
>>696972417>release>several entire subsets of weapon types and their related skills aren't in>ascendancies still missing>acts still missing>story incompleteDon't reply to me.
>>696972316>and they want to hear what you find shitty. Tell them.Anon the ACTUAL beta testers that have been playing for a long while had repeatedly told them that the game sucked assThat currency was low and backtracking tucked and all the current problems we haveThey simply ignored themTHIS is the release. The beta was private
>>696960825The Xpac was AWFUL, whoever was making the decisions on that should be clubbed over the head with a rock, d4 right before xpac was great and literally everything they changed and added SUCKS
>>696964593Meds
>>696972615>>696972536Schizo conspiracy theorists have arrived.It's okay, I'm sure the next season of D4 will be good this time!
>>696972594>>release>>several entire subsets of weapon types and their related skills aren't in>>ascendancies still missing>>acts still missing>>story incompleteIt's still the releaseMissing content is just missing content They have spent 4+ years on this shitAnd at the last minute realised that maps didn't work LOLThey never tested ascending eitherWhat a joke rushed abortion
Cope and Seethe p2etrannies
>>696972728>Schizo conspiracy theoristsGoogle itPoe2 closed beta test feedbackThe beta testers broke nda and spoke on reddit/twitter. One even posted on /vg/
>>696972524My original arguement was pointing out people like you and your dumbass got offended enough to chime in and repeat back what I said. I said both were/are bad at launch, but at least one has been out long enough to update around feedback. But you wanted to come in and correct it so that D4 is still shit because you said so and your word is law. Fuck off retard
>>696971695The skill system in this game is fucking infuriating
>>696972615>>696972728>>696972836bye bye johnathan looks like your on your way out
>>696972836>nah bro my conspiracy theory is actually real because uuuuh twitter and reddit posts are my source!Jesus fucking christ, nuke this board.
>>696972862>because you said so and your word is lawYou just keep doing the thing you are complaining about others doing. Do you even realize you are doing it at this point?
I got diablo 4 as part of a promo with my GPU but never touched it, is now a good time to give it a whirl?
>>696966707Grim Dawn bro. where the fuck is the new expansion
>>696973049Sure? It's not like it is going to get any better any time soon.
>>696960825>C-come home, W-wh*te male chud!
>>696972953Are you denying the closed beta test happened?
>>696961283Deleting your character every 3 months is so fucking retarded. Why would anyone accept that? Then they have to trivialize the character building more and more to make up for the fact they are going to delete it.Never ever playing Blizzard shit again until they stop stealing money from people for speaking in game. Hopefully law is enforced against this bullshit soon but I'm not holding my breath.
>>696960825is it worth reinstalling D4 to get the free shit or is this some paid xpac shit?
>>696973049I heard it's a lot better nowCould also wait for next season if you are in no rush
>>696973227>Deleting your character every 3 months is so fucking retarded. Why would anyone accept thatIt's fun Starting fresh and powering up is half the fun of arpgs
imagine being so confident that p2e is such a good game you astroturf it instead of playing it fucking kek talk about self own

>>696969525>Diablo himselfexactly this, why even bother calling it Diablo without him
>>696966645All that needed to be done was repeal Obama's law allowing the use of propaganda internally on US citizens. If Trump was going to do anything he would have 8 years ago. He's not.
>>696973227How does the seasons work in PoE?
>>696969407Best games of all time were all free roguelikes and MUDs.

>>696960825>please play our game, here's a bonus so you don't have to play our gamehmm kinda sus
arpgs have been shit since retards took blizzards PR weaseling to fix cheating on bnet with out pissing everyone off and turned it into a core element of the genre.Hopefully seasons go the way of magic find one day.
>>696965559They know it's a joke. But they like to act it's genuine because it supports their views and wishes. It's why you see "I'm a girl: [retarded take]" posts get replies from anons calling said person a troon or woman, then jerking off because they again were smarter than "a stupid leftist tranny". Even when it's a random guy pretending to be a girl.It's a huge game of pretend for comfort and echo chamber with easy to beat falseflags.For example: "PoE devs are probably racists, Diablo 4 is higher quality. As a longtime Blizzard fan they reakly outdid themselves and you just hate Blizzard because they support le scary gays".That kind of most obvious shitpost would get "debunkers" telling how wrong it is etc. even when everyone knows it's from someone with same views as them.
>>696975605tl;drTrannies cut their dick off for attention and shitposting is like cutting it off all over again; they can't do it enough. The more retarded a post they can make the better.
