First and foremost the definition "softcore" is designed as an insult, and using it as the name of a topic or for your discussions just perpetrates that elitism you are trying to hide.

Its like arguing we should be less racist while using racial slurs to refer to the people we should be less racist about.

Why not call it its proper name, Std, default, whatever, but its never been called softcore in any ARPG I have played.... that was just the name people used for elitism from the HC crowd

Okay i don't rememebr what was it in Diablo 2 by the way ( i really don't remember ).. I will change the title if it was not SC in D2..

And :

@Tsoukalos lol at you, mod edited, i wonder what kind of insult you said, but why the word " DERP " is still there ? Whatever..



I wonder what is yellow point of you in this !
If a new non HC league were introduced with nothing more/better than a new introduced HC league than : i was wrong and GGG would not have noticed the good thing Naming the new non HC league : Anarchy has provided to the community.

Cheers

It was an awesome animated GIF. I guess that mod doesn't like awesome animated GIF's.

In d2 it was std or normal, or default. Can't remember specifically. But no league has ever been called 'softcore', this is because it would promote negative connotations by the game company, and considering how the primary mode people play is the normal version, not HC, this would be counter productive.

Take -easymode from Dota, this thing made everyone so angry towards it, and the name just cause antagonisation. A similar mode has existed in other similar style games, still disliked by the elitists, but not nearly so negatively connotated for the general public.

Ok thanks a lot for this information, i will modify the title right now.


Here is a real video about a real HC thing ( The penalty for error is certain death ) :

AS you can see 2 worlds can be available to everyone, Non HC leagues are allowed to have something better than Hc leagues.. and i think it's very good,

take a loot at a non HC sport : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLUuXRgGtws
We can agree that a mistake will not take your life our of you..

the 2 have something thing particular, one has greatness ( 20% more dangerous arracks + error = death ) the other have goals ( rogue exiles )

The anarchy name is very good aswell.

The hardcore and standard leagues are literally seperated by a small checkbox on character select. They aren't supposed to be different in anyway but how death effects a character.

thx for obvious..


But now, we have different leagues and with more than the simple : "If you die their you die."

Rogue exiles are a joke. 1 each 20/30 maps if not more


Fresh economy is nice though. At least until RMTs had 99% of the market

in their dreams..

yep like the economy.

And yeahe next new leagues ( HC and NON HC) should have even more intsresting things..

up

Personally I disagree. I don't like all this league-exclusiveness. I played HC for a while, decided it wasn't for me and switched to default. Same game, different death rules - as it should be. Then come Anarchy and Onslaught. I don't like that there's a unique you can only get in Onslaught, nor do I like that Onslaught players miss out on the Anarchy-only unique or the rogue exiles. Its just like that ladder-only content garbage from D2 days, I hate it.

As for old leagues vs. new leagues, I will be very upset if the new items are not added to the old leagues. Something I hate more than the league-exclusivity is legacy items. The rogue exiles are more of a special rule than actual content, so that can stay, go, or be a recurring league thing and I'm okay with it.
