@Vacuumator Honkai - Slavic local dialect question to use soundhorn in car or to swing on chair. The right answer is: Zahonkam, Honkam (I'll do it) Nezahonkam, Nebudu/dem Honkat' (I won't).

Everytime I see that title I ROFL.

Re: Diablo 4 Patch 1.2.0 Sounds Like Another Solid Step Forward for the Criticised Action RPG

@Loamy Simply, there is almost none endgame, only repetitive dungeons and some bosses (put aside season, talking about core game). Note that you cannot repeat story or side quests, map is set and dungeons are so similar, that sooner or later they become boring. And than they started to fuel the fire.

First, they nerfed crucial skills, so it became not only boring, but also artificially longer to level up. Fast paced action was gone.

Second, they made new character meaningless, because they made shared exploration, so map is revealed as your last walkthrough left it (while you reveal it whole, it stay that for every character) and if you choose to skip story, you can do just side quests or renown (which will be also shared in this patch, ergo removed).
Literally you have almost nothing to do with new character.

Third, you are not forced to care about loot because there is power scaling for monsters. In other words, whatever you equip, you kill any monster in similar time.
My lvl45 Necro is equiped with +-lvl17 gear and feels same whole time.

Re: PlayStation's Push for Live Service Games Hasn't Been Going Smoothly

I must say, that whole PS5 era is disastrous. Dozens of games are multiplayer or GaaS or souls-like or rougelite. If it is different than it is just some remaster of old game. I'm trying hardly to find some action platformer (Uncharted) or arcade shooter (Super Stardust) or ARPG (Marvel Ultimate Alliance)

Every game feels like super serious, but fun is gone. Everything has huge open world, but flat content and extra short story....

I must say last gane I really enjoyed was Cyberpunk 2077. ...and it was last gen game...

FF7 was the first game I've ever played on PlayStation and forced me thinking about buying console at all, so nothing will ever match Final Fantasy 7.

Bloodborne is good. I gave it one evening and have no interest to return, because simply I'm not big fan of Souls games anymore after gaming world started to be overwhelmed by them and solid but fair games are gone.

Re: Diablo 4 Yearly Expansions Seemingly Confirmed by Blizzard

djlard

Diablo series defined 23 of my gaming history. I gave Diablo series 10000+ hours over it's 28 years of existence. So I can say "die hard fan" is weak words for my relation towards Diablo.

And with all this above you must admit how hard for me is to accept, that Diablo 4 is bad. Pretty bad game that doesn't deserve to hold the name "Diablo".

12 years of waiting for game that you complete in few hours, that is ok. But with maybe 1% replayability while I was hoping for another couple of years... that... that is even not ridiculous...

I must admit I really don't care for any datadiscs (dlc), any seasons (whose I don't care anywhere else), any updates of things that should be in game from release.... I just ... don't care Diablo 4 anymore...
