          Pets are great but you have to go all in on them. All gear must give them buffs and another summon if possible, plus you have to go necro otherwise they suck. Bit when done right they just melt everything, you will often have more pets than there are mobs on the screen.

      It's going to start off slow. It's what I started as, then switched to dual pistols because I soon realized that attacks speed > base damage. See then you can start stacking random celestial bullshit This went on for a long time. He became a monster. Erased base game end boss on the first attempt. Then a shield with pistol buffs dropped. So I went pistol and shield, defense and dps both went up. I hit item cap recently, so pulled the slot machine in that dungeon in Malmouth with the smith who only makes random purple gear and after a few goes he dropped a rifle. A seriously good rifle with an increase percentage on the actual projectile speed, separate to the shooting speed. I've never seen that before. I'm now back to running around with a rifle and a second weapon switch with the pistol and shield flying across the map pumping out 4.76x attacks. On the rifle. But it will start off slow. Oh so very, very slow.

      titan quest nostalgia

      Its because its just an ARPG. You get skills, kill shit, get better loot, repeat.

      It's that simple.

      Its an incredibly pure game experience with good backstory, high enemy density, lots of different builds, and an infinite dungeon mode (as of forgotten gods).

      There's no moronicness tacked on. No RMT. Its very supportive of mods (in fact modders have access to the same tools the devs did when they built the game).

      The only real negative is that you have to focus too much on offensive and defensive ability. If you're not hitting like 2800+ defensive ability in end game you'll get creamed. You also have to try to massively overcap on resistances, which drains the fun from builds.

    The build opportunities are good. The text story that you can ignore is actually quite good and setting appropriate.
    But the combat is very dull, lots of variations of swing at thing and X amount of passives will proc off of it. And the world itself is quite grim and dreary, Diablo 2 was grim but exciting because it was fantastical, gd is a lot more grounded and mundane.

      Basically every d2-derivative in existence towers somewhere in stratosphere above d3 and d4, because correct character building and itemization choices matter in them. In Blizzard games, they effectively just exist there as a buttons to press that have no impact on gameplay experience you will be getting, because psychologists designing the game heard that some autists may like it, so they added few menus that will act like fidget spinners for them.

      What gets me is that the modding tools are super powerful (in that they're literally the tools used to design the game in the first place), but Grim Dawn's popularity has always remained so middling that there's no actually good mods for it.

      Custom classes are usually very poorly tuned with a poor understanding of whats actually fun and/or viable beyond low levels (they may work for act 1 then immediately become shit, as an example). And they're also dead in the water without any MI/Legendary set support.

      I think that the guides for GD modding are so poor and esoteric that it puts a lot of people off. I can't even fricking figure out how to create a new class, from the guides i've been able to find.

      I would really like to have seen mods that add item drops; different item modifiers, new monster infrequents, more conversion options for skills, etc. etc.

    We need more fricking games like Grim Dawn. Just a solid ARPG made by a passionate team with a small budget, and most of all, SINGLEPLAYER. Why does it feel like the genre is being turned into some weird pseudo MMO bullshit? Or even just forcing always online gameplay when it is irrelevant and adds nothing? Path of Exile, D4, Last Epoch, 40k: Inquisitor... Diablo-like games are apparently now online only. At least MMO koreashit like Lost Ark and Undecember are technically fully fledged multiplayer games(?), so they have an excuse of a sort.
    I don't understand why this is happening to this genre specifically. Was it really just Diablo 3 starting this shit, and for some reason everyone else followed suit?

        They're a bit more nuanced than that. They were servants of the primordial gods until that civil war which fricked the gods up and the Aetherials were stripped of their physical forms, and cast into the Aether until they found Cairn/humans. They're just trying to get back into flesh forms, albiet at the destruction of Cairn. They also really hate Ch'thon and fight its minions at any chance.

    It's a game where you do nothing but hold down one button facetanking everything for 60 hours, while also not even needing to farm gear since you just get everything from vendors.

        Didn't they consistently nerf that and even then made it possible only to high level builds with ultimate gear?

    More like Grim Yawn
    I picked up the game a year ago and found it to be extremely boring and repetitive. In the first map, I mostly stuck to the right side quests, killing everything and looting it all. I faced several bosses and mainly did side quest, with a couple of main ones.
    My experience remained the same, from start to finish, with a couple of spikes here and there. I don't recall the class name, but it was the one where you shot poison orbs. All I did was stick in mid-range and click 1, with maybe occasionally debuffing bosses. I expect melee classes to be just as the same, but slightly frustrated due to swarms
    >inb4 fun with friends
    I can play a game, where I throw rocks at my friends, and it still wouldn't be fun

    I like the level of build diversity. I don't like the amount of skills that are hard to understand without researching. I also don't love the map and dislike that it is static. I'm not into the texty quests either.

    I beat the base game and did not want to play the expansions because of how little I liked playing the entirety of the base game. The combat was garbage. No amount of building really changes that.

    I'm playing it right now. Occultist/Arcanist elemental pet build.
    Frick whoever thought making OFF not do damage if it doesn't freeze was a good idea.

    My friends aren't autistic enough to play to 100 and make meme builds.

    Well it crashes on the ancients fight for me, but it was fun while it lasted.

    Commando (Soldier + Demolitionist) is a very fun class combo from all ranges. Shooting everything that moves and smashing anything that gets too close.
