youve trashed the game

You can't kill anyone if you don't have burst/spike damage. Just look at D3 HC.

Sure you can, just not in this game, or D3 (I'll take your word for that one, don't know much about it), and it wasn't really the point, I suppose it's relevant to the thread but wasn't what were were talking about. Casual banter aside, I really wouldn't like to see people start logging out to save their items.

No, what I'm saying is that you fundamentally have to change the way the game is designed if you don't allow players to log out of fights. It would be completely unfair to keep the game as is right now with the massive amount of possible burst damage simply out of the blue without logout existing.

so ggg cares enough to censor the hell out of this, but not to actually address the issues.

ggg "support" is why i stopped playing, feels like a bunch of sjws are removing everything i say

Fortunately, nobody was suggesting that.

i even emailed ggg support about it and they were pretty insistent about it. it was a pretty funny email string, they thought it was serious business and apparently a very hostile thing to say.

whoever can ban someone for saying "captain obvious" is a fucking pussy and wont survive 2 hours in the real world. now lets see if i get a permanent ban for this hostility i just said!

when enforcing the rules becomes more important than listening to people, im out for good ;) if i wanted sjws to rule how i speak, i would move to california or god forbid, canada

when people focus on being offended instead of the actual content/facts, well... everything degrades.

i suppose it's a fitting metaphor for the game.

after looking thoroughly at list of possible mods on the items, my conclusion is not far off snorkle's.

a lot of design directions theyve been moving towards have been thrown out of the window completely.
a lot of bandaid fixes to negate instant leech nerf (you get life recovery, you get life on hit everyone gets a cybils on ring) and a lot of straight up wtf moments (curse on hit on rings ? flask EFFECT as a prefix on belts ? WHAT ?)

if this was a league thing Id at least understand...

the only positive I can think of is that it kinda promotes multiple skill use...but you know most people will just use one skill still, just in a 7-10L

when was difficulty ever REALLY increased before, though? since atziri/beyond, it's just been easy. there was mention of changing monster health/damage, but it was still... easy. [Removed by Support]

sure...youre only writing such a thing in an attempt to evoke the impression that you would cruise through his game easy-mode. which you most likely are not, esp. since you would claim such a thing.

if you want to further pursuse the "argument" on whats easy and who beats what game, i can PM you my steam-id so you can check my achievements on actually skill-based actiongames.


difficulty has been increased in all kinds of ways, and most of them are unfitting.
and worst of all, most of these "difficulties" that are DESIGNED to be skill-related (or at least seem that way) can be overcome by stats, if you ever get to that point.

noone is beating lab in seconds based on movement-SKILL. if you actually struggle with traps and itzaro - reroll.
noone would actually attempt uber-atziri, relying on his/ her manual skill when it comes to dodging flameblasts. only win-condition for this fight: destroy clones in under two seconds.
same with kitava, you do him once you got the dmg and hp, you DONT WANT TO rely on skill with him.
maybe this fits your defintion of "easy" - to me its nonsensical gamedesign.


its as if GGG wouldnt even see HOW people play this game. they still insist on coming up with encounters that belong into WoW, DMC, whatever, but not in an arpg that has such clunky controlls and, most importantly: little visual information.

i am far from a game-designer, but just based on having played many videogames i can come up with 10 concepts for bosses, encounters and just concepts of difficulty in general that go beyond just "oneshot" and "increase hp and dmg by x".

how can a game that is so unique and creative in any other aspect be so dull and unimaginative in its enemy-/ difficulty-design?
