GGG specifically balances around the presence of ALT+F4 so saying that they aren't playing the game properly is kind of hilarious, when Chris has specifically said that he could never envision an ARPG without ALT+F4.
That's all well and good. Press Alt-F4 all you like. Just don't call it hardcore, because it isn't.
agreed.
btw, my connection sucks. and my pc crashes, freezes, or pauses sometimes. playing this mode would be stupid.
i even do not have that ability to end the game with at+F4 if it pauses/freezes. all that i could do is, to pull the plug and pray. too much of a disadvantage for my taste.

It's a little amusing how people have convinced themselves that alt-f4 or escape exit is a mechanic is poe. Seriously? What other game have you ever played where a basic function of the OS to cancel a program quickly, or a program not responding was a key mechanic of the game? Does that not sound insane to anyone else?
ah forget it, not worth it.

Chris Wilson stated it's a core mechanic.
Deal with it.

It's a core mechanic. I do it, but let's not kid ourselves it is not a "Hardcore" behavior. It's a "I don't want to lose 100+ hours of grinding due to desync or shitty mistake I made" behavior. The league is hardcore, the action is not.

This isn't about alt+f4, it's about instant logouts. And to answer your question, Diablo 2.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence. Last edited by Xavderion#3432 on Mar 21, 2014, 11:44:18 PM

And again, When people did it in D2 it wasn't any more hardcore. Keep the "mechanic" (lol). The point is, when you start insulting scrubcore people when you yourself use a very softcore mechanic, it seems a little hypocritical.

A typical lardhead behaviour.
"You suck because you don't like what i like"
How can you take that people seriously?
