Off Topic - Not the only upcoming Diablo Clone - Forum

So PoE and D3 for me only. you can't post an image from a pre-alpha game and judge the whole game by it someone posted on the GD forums that they didn't like the way the belt looked in that picture http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2275&page=4 here is the response from one of the devs " I agree but fortunately it is just a quickie stand-in bitmap, we don't have finished belt art yet. ;) they haven't even made belts yet ! and I believe they're still trying to get a font that looks good in game so that image is not indicative of how the game will finally look they just release things every now and then to let the forum know how the development process is going and one thing GD does have going for it is that they're releasing their editors and encouraging modding some pics of one of the editors - http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=99 http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1964 Last edited by jamesl#0818 on Jul 30, 2011, 8:21:01 AM	Posted by jamesl#0818 on Jul 30, 2011, 8:18:37 AM Quote this Post

Yeah, our intention is to start inviting people on August 8, unless something delays it. I'm very interested in seeing both Diablo 3 and Grim Dawn. It's going to be such an exciting few years for Action RPGs (after such a long wait for everyone).

See the double post DOES EXIST! GD WILL ROCK! I WILL BUY THAT, WHEN IT HITS STORE SHELVES... I DON'T DO DIGITAL COPIES AS IF ANYTHING HAPPENS I COULD LOSE IT! With a physical copy I can return it to a store if it does not work, I may have to have the disk but at least I HAVE SOMETHING! I love virtual brutality so save it for the Mobs...

I have had problems with my ISP in the past... Comcast is Comcrap... Sometimes it is hard to download things... it just won't go through, I can try but anything above a GIG seems damn near impossible to get in under an hour, I hope that path of exile releases it's patches as separate downloads due to some crap ISP's blocking huge files after the 5th day of the month... I am on to them. I love virtual brutality so save it for the Mobs... Last edited by cybrim#1062 on Jul 31, 2011, 12:52:00 AM	Posted by cybrim#1062 on Jul 31, 2011, 12:50:07 AM Quote this Post

With a physical copy I can return it to a store if it does not work, I may have to have the disk but at least I HAVE SOMETHING! burn to a DVD ? save it to external hard drive ? save it to a thumb drive ? buying it from the store means the DVD could get scratched and then you're out of luck ; you'll have to buy a new copy buying it from a download site means you can always download it again for free you could even download it at work onto an external hard drive and then take it home and install it	Posted by jamesl#0818 on Jul 31, 2011, 1:20:04 AM Quote this Post
I like having a physical copy, I take care of my stuff so I don't have to worry about that, besides that my nephew has already tripped over my external HD cord... I love virtual brutality so save it for the Mobs...	Posted by cybrim#1062 on Jul 31, 2011, 1:33:29 AM Quote this Post
