Description
Enter an apocalyptic fantasy world where humanity is on the brink of extinction, iron is valued above gold and trust is hard earned. This ARPG features complex character development, hundreds of unique items, crafting and quests with choice & consequence.
  • Dual Class - Combine any of six distinct classes with over 25 skills and modifiers per class. Base classes include Soldier, Demolitionist, Occultist, Nightblade, Arcanist and Shaman.
  • Hundreds of Item Skills - Augment your class build with a diverse array of over 250 unique skills granted by items and equipment add-ons.
  • Collect hundreds of Items - Common, magical, rare, epic and legendary classes of loot. Plus over 20,000 possible magical affix combinations and over 200 rare affixes.
  • Quests with Choice and Consequence - You will face tough decisions that leave significant impacts upon the world. Strangers on the road, desperate families and even entire villages may live or perish based on your actions. Currently over 35 quests with 75+ lore notes to be collected.
  • Friendly and Enemy Factions - Earn favor with human factions to unlock additional quest lines, vendor discounts and special faction-based items and augments. Some neutral factions can be turned into allies but aiding one will make the enemy of another. Hostile factions will remember your deeds and deepen their hatred of you, sending out large packs and elite heroes to hunt you down.
  • Devotion, an additional layer of skill customization allows you to acquire bonuses and powerful secondary effects for your class skills. These are unlocked from a giant constellation map with points acquired by finding and restoring destroyed or corrupted shrines hidden throughout the world.
  • Rebuild the World - Help human enclaves survive and flourish by securing vital necessities, rebuilding structures and rescuing survivors who can then lend their services to your cause.
  • 4 Person Multiplayer - Connect with Friends or make new allies in glorious multiplayer. Multiplayer encounters will put your teamwork to the ultimate challenge.
  • Fast-paced Visceral Combat - Enemy blood spatters, ragdoll physics and satisfying enemy death effects. Smash in doors and fight house to house, leaving a path of demolished furniture in your wake.
  • Rotatable Camera - If you choose to survey the full beauty of the world and always fight from the most optimal angle. Levels are still designed so that players are not forced to rotate the camera; it is purely optional.
  • Secrets and Perils Abound - 200+ Enemy heroes and bosses, hand-configured with their own unique arrays of deadly skills. 20+ secret areas hidden behind crumbling walls, hidden gaps and mysterious locked doors. Explode obstacles or repair structures to open new paths.
  • Rogue-Like Dungeons - Descend into special locked challenge dungeons that require a rare crafted key, where enemy levels increase as you progress and player teleport is disabled. There is no way out except to complete the dungeon or die trying.
  • Dynamic Weather - The world is brought to life with region-specific climates and a variety of weather effects. A sunny day can cloud over with mild rain showers that builds into a booming thunderstorm. Variable wind gusts blow grass and affect objects like windmills.
  • Recipe Based Crafting - Collect over 250 crafting recipes that allow you to combine salvaged components into unique crafted items and then, later, use those basic crafted items with higher-tiered recipes to complete items of amazing power.
  • Reclaim Skill Points - The ability to pay to reclaim points alleviates the fear and frustration of having to make early, uninformed skill choices that could permanently gimp a character.

A slow build to a great ARPG experience

I confess it took my a long time to warm to this game because the setting is somewhat nontraditional (Lovecraftian Western with elements of high fantasy, zombie apocalypse, and steampunk is probably the best way to describe it) and the freedom in designing your own build can be almost paralyzing. But despite a slow start, Grim Dawn builds into the best ARPG on the market. I've sunk about 70 hours in at this point, and I still haven't finished the game because rolling alts is so addicting. The game is a dream for theorycrafters, but for people like me that just want to sling cool spells and slash their way through a few fantasy dungeons, there's plenty of that too. The additions of the Crucible DLC (very useful for getting good gear and leveling new characters) and Ashes of Malmouth (four syllables: ne-cro-man-cer) fill out most of what the game is missing and make it stand with the best of the best.

Amazing ARPG

Great ARPG for fans of the old Titan Quest, Torchlight, Diablo II, and others. Awesome classes, with great character options between the two you get to pick at once.

Bursts of frustration

I love my ARPGs and have been a huge Diablo fan for years. I've played all forms of variations on the formula and Grim Dawn has been one of the best! My biggest beef with the game though is that there are these small burst when it just doesn't respond. There's no latency lag or anything. I'll be tapping away to get a skill to activate with no response. So while I'm getting mauled by a mob I switch to another skill that immediately responds but then is suddenly over run when the game desides to deploy the previous unresponsive skill. I've had moment so trying to drop the Soldier Forcewave skill with no luck, try to kite around the mob, then suddenly come to a standstill with a spam of Forcewave as the game catches up -- again, after I've moved on to something else. There's some really great stuff here otherwise. I mean, I almost put my fist through the screen a couple of times when the brusts of frustration hit during the second plot boss but there's just so much good stuff here that I kept pressing onward.

Reasonable Blend of Diablo and PoE

Note: This review is for Grim Dawn, with no DLC included. Grim Dawn is a modern Action RPG (ARPG) along the lines of Diablo, Path of Exile (PoE) & Torchlight. Gameplay is an interesting blend of Diablo & PoE with multiple build options, a reasonable ramping of difficulty and an intriguing "dark" setting. It does not differ mechanics-wise than any other ARPG, it's still a hack & slash button mashing dungeon looter. Pros; Story-line is more mature than competitors More build options/complexity than Diablo Genuine difficulty, but doesnt feel "unfair", your deaths can almost always be avoided with better play. Graphics are reasonable, have aged fairly. Cons: Less build options and depth than PoE Lack of real end-game The decisions you make in-game don't have any real effect on the game outcomes There is no "rebuilding of settlements" as advertised. The story progresses on with very little changing. No way to change your secondary class (outside of hacks) TLDR; If you like ARPG's, play this game. If you don't, give it a go anyway. Reasonable story and fun classes & mechanics are only diminished by lack of end-game.
