How many hours will you spend playing it? Compare that to a movie; or Disney or something. Video games are a bargain by comparison.

Yes, it states this if you hover over magic find in the PTR. Magic find is worthless. Gold find feels like it'll be very necessary though.

I'm not in the closed beta, on the PTR and there are some major issues that need to be addressed:
Loot 2.0 both sucks and is awesome at the same time. The lack of drops (even bad ones) is demoralizing. Killing things -feels- pointless, especially at a higher level. At a lower level, it's worse. I made a 1 level (master) and leveled him to 15 so far. All his gear is either vendor or crafted. The legendary I did find was replaced 10 minutes later. This -sucks-. Good thing so much gold drops, cuz it feels like you are going to need it. I was level 10 before I even reached Cain so that felt odd.
Density in Act 1 sucks. There is nothing to kill.
The difficulty curve between expert and master is silly. My level 60 WD (100K dps) - expert is too easy. Master takes too long to kill stuff.
On the plus side, that the monsters level with you is sweet. Nothing is ever too easy. Though, I fear, that Belial is going to take on Master and higher LOL.
If this game is released with Loot 2.0 as is, the crying in the community will dwarf anything heard thus far. It's not an ARPG without constant loot drops.

Sep 25, 2013lorien1973 posted a message on A Lot of Paragon 2.0 Clarifications, Blue Posts, Community Commentary: Sanctuary Around YouPosted in: NewsI kind of like how the points rotate to each category. If we had complete freedom then, although I would like to put some points in movement speed or pickup radius it would always feel like an overall loss since I would be passing up on more damage (which, at least today, is always king).
And? You make choices, that's what life is about. Them forcing a certain selection at a certain level is dumb. So what if I want to stick all my points in movement speed at first? Why should Blizzard care?
It's a lot like the removal of talent trees in WoW. It's been replaced with a bunch of false choices. Everyone knows where you are going to put that point. So why bother letting us assign it at all? Choices, but no real choices at all. And that's why Blizzard games are becoming sucky - they've taken away your ability to make real choices. -

Doing the exact same line each time around.
You must also think driving in a NASCAR race is easy since you just have to make a left turn.
At 200 MPH.
For 3.5 hours.

These stats are always misleading. Games are $60. Movies are $10. By # sold, movies far outpace any game. -

And I think that's what made Titan's Quest kind of cool. Not only would you find "legendary" items, but the mobs would actually use them against you. So you sorta had to earn it to use it. I thought that was one of the great things about that game. -
Nov 16, 2012lorien1973 posted a message on Future Updates, What Would You Like to See in an Expansion?, Top 10 Wanted Features, Community Commentary: Gearing up Your FolloPosted in: News9) Remove burrowing leapers from the game. Please. They aren't fun and there's no rush of victory for killing something the size of a small dog that was only a threat because it was hard to hit.
I've never had a problem with these. They are cake on the barbarian (rend/bloodlust) and on the WD (locust swarm) and since they added those little ground trails where they burrow, they are a 100x easier.
I'd rather they change the ninja nagas - it's stupid that you cannot damage them while they are invisible. How, exactly, does them being invisible stop an axe from cleaving their heads off? -

1 - let better gems drop. Even if it's 1 in 1000 chance compared to other gems. Let them drop. It's stupid that perfect square is the best that drops.
2 - More randomness on the maps.
3 - make potions/gems/tomes auto pick up with their own (non inventory crowding) slots.
4 - Get rid of pointless identifying. What a waste of time.
5 - Increase the base movement speed.
6 - Increase mob density in Act 1. Even if its only for inferno.
7 - Let us kill bosses while starting on any quest in the game. (ie start at "enter cursed hold" - but you can go back and kill the skele king if you wantt).
8 - More merchants in the world; somehow.
9 - Let us move between acts and keep our NV stacks.
10 - More randomness on the maps.
Also. More randomness on the maps.
Also, revamp currency so people don't have a trillion gold. This never made sense. Moneychanging is a time honored profession.

It seems like, the first time you stand in it or its cast under you, you have a second or two to move out of it; but future casts you do not get that time - they delay to take damage gets shorter and shorter as the fight moves on. It's like the timer isn't per descecration pool, but for the total fight. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

I find it funny that people still whine about the death animations at the siege breaker.
If most the things in post #3 had been included in the game, everyone would hate them.

Diablo is not about finding loot anymore; it's about buying it for the cheapest price possible.
And that's pretty stupid.

Defining "awesome" down a few notches aren't we? He's pretty wonky looking, the human body doesn't quite look like that.
