Grim Dawn

Before i start, yes i did read the "behaviour codex" or w.e it's called. But the opinion of people, who behave seems to get hammered down by arrogant snobs(if this even gets read or approved). Therefore i will definitely point out the validity of my own opinion. And i WILL write off-topic. I've heard many good things about this game, in part over at Rhykker's. I have at one point bought Diablo 2, because i have also heard many good things about it. I didn't like it. My first MMO was Cronous. Nobody i ever told about it liked it. I liked it and i think it's way better than D2, even in terms of graphics..and even if you call it a "Diablo-clone".. I had found a D3 folder on my PC named "Telemetry" and even if it seems like common practice to take people's data i am very much opposed to that. I haven't touched the game ever since. And the story about that scandal made me extra cautious not to re-install even for the update. This game was quite boring. I thought it would allow me a to re-live my D3 experience, but better(based on the top review(LOL)). So i waited for a discount to use leftover money on my paysafecard. I had to tinker with the Graphics settings to get the right configuration, so my PC doesn't waste too much power while stille maintaining a good appearance. The game is top-down 2D-ish(2D as in zero camera action) and while that is my favourite style i find the progression a bit boring. Admittedly i haven't tryed a 2nd skill yet, but i don't think it's for me and i'm okay with that. The game reminded me so much of D3, that i decided to go get it again. And it's way better. I admit, that while playing D3 i do miss the classical graphics of Grim Dawn, but D3 is way more fast-paced and efficient in using cpu/gpu..I don't think, that either of these games are healthy as a main hobby. If you want a negative review of Grim Dawn, just search for "grim dawn boring". I'm not going through hell again just because D2-Fans downplay my opinion! GD=Zombies & Spiders

Constant nerfs with every patch completely kill any desire to play it.

It's an okay isometric, but this was one of the games I downloaded when I knew I was going to be without internet. Upon load it spent it's time trying to dial home some server and 'couldn't load' the actual game. As in, no gameplay without an internet connection. Total trash. Refund it. Do not recommend.

For the game itself, seems pretty fun. Being able to combine class is col, killing things is fun, pretty much if you enjoy this style of game you should like Grim Dawn. Bad thing may be how well some classes work, I haven't really played all possible combinations and some just may not really match well. You don't want to be doing 6 diferent damage types or somthg. Rather anoying thing about it though is the CONSTANT popups. If you level up, complete a quest, learn a recipe, gain rep, reach a new stage of rep, get a devotion point (special talent point), or get an achievement (even outside of galaxy) there is a popup informing you of this. Might even b mor things that I have yet to notice. It's rather anoying, you turn in a quest and BAM pop up informin you that you turned it in. I just turned it in, I think I know that I just complete the quest. Can be nice for rep stages (NOT rep gains) and level up though as you could conceivably mis that they hapen. Bigest prob with this is it's unfinished. Crashes a ton. I've had it crash 5 times within a hour, I'd say on average it crashes once a hour. Worst thing about this is that when the game closes from the crash you are back at the prison and everything you've cleared respawn. Just about to kill that boss and get some loot? Fuck you, now you have to fight your way back to the boss. Seriously, it is awful. I was on the third floor of some dungeon for a quest to kill three guys, two down one more to go and I crashed. Had to clear the whole way again. Another time, after killing a major boss I crashed before getting out (exit behind boss) so I had to clear to him again, kill him again, and then take the exit and activate the rift. No other way to get to that rift so I had to do it all again. I don't get why they get this archaic system, do what Torchlight 2 did and make it so respwns wen plyr wants. Crucible was pose to be out at launch but wsnt took 5 months thn they chrg for it. Assume all dlc is cut and just pirate game.

Quitting the game straight to desktop or because of a crash causes your character to be inaccessible and crashes the game every time attempting to load. Do not buy this version it doesn't work.
