Dont try Grim Dawn, you will never look back

Epic Landscapes to explore, huuuuge maps. something i miss in poe for ever. fuck the square/linear design
day/night/weather
dungeon crawling
rewarding gameplay, selffound viable
no MF!! yay
no trading needed
lan mode, single player mode
traditional boss farming possible
only usefull modifiers on items
nice item tier system
summoners ... <3
multilayer skill system
partial respecs anytime <3
slow but nice progression
challenging trial dungeons, even on normal mode. (took me 5 rerolls until i was able to do them all in normal mode. you die - you fail)
playing the game feels like an adventure, srsly.

so much better than D3 and so much better in some regards than POE (Graphics, Leveldesign, Itemisation).

GGG should hire some of the Crate guys.

I am looking forward to dive into GDawn world soon, and I really hope it is as good as it looks.

it is. poe feels like an hardcore asia grinder compared to GD.
i will not quit poe for grim dawn of course but if you like some rewarding adventuring with a deep-enough skill system -> go full out on it.

GD fills the wasteland between D3 and Poe just nicely.

I have to add that "asian grinders" shouldnt be underestimated, they have some really good sh.t there. They mostly have great graphic and art style, one of the things I just don't like in PoE. Everything is depressing and wierd.

I was playing Blade and Soul for example for a few weeks, there are many good things there.
But to grindy as you said.

Also, I wouldn't mind PoE with graphic like: ;)

If you want more in-depth story Grim Dawn definitely has that in spades. (It also has Cutscenes!) I'm not gonna stop playing PoE but Grim Dawn will fill a special niche which has its own spot in my heart.

That's what makes it great and special! D:
It's one of the main features in the basic game description.

so much random colored lighting in the open areas x_x
feels like eating too many sweets ...
(only focused on graphic difference)

I have been playing Grim dawn for awhile now just funny to me how I all of a sudden see everyone bringing it up. It is definitely fun and worth the buy but I wouldn't say its better. Maybe I am just burnt out on it though.

Yea i helped kickstart fund GD its really good. Having a blast playing it. Havent logged on PoE in almost a month. I do expect to try Ascendancy though.

Grim Dawn is a fantastic game though. I highly recommend.

Pretty good game, I expect people to play grim dawn for 1000 hours and then start posting "grim dawn is dead" 6 months from now.

PoE would be high up there even among all the Asian grinders... people have no idea lol.
