What a joke of a release. Like props to the artists but the actual release is shit. Server issues constantly, less functionality, less reliability. Straight up cash grab money hungry shit. Nonfunctional communications, it's a pretty big wash. Not saying Vicarious Visions didn't put out a solid client when they had to, more so activblizzard is making the same exact mistakes as the company that first acquired d2 did. SAD to see a classic game get RIPed so hard. VV implied in some statements they'd actually like to work on the game but it seems like their boss sucks ass and I don't doubt it

    I feel incredibly sheepish about buying it, I thought “ooo, I spent many hours on this, and now it looks nice.” I played it for 15 minutes and was like “oh yeah, this is just a nice looking version of a wildly outdated game” and went back to Path of Exile. I hope they use my 40 dollars responsibly

      How's PoE since the flask rework? I gave up on the game because they murdered my labrunner builds with those changes (and I was sick of seeing my old builds die to balance changes).

        Honestly, it's just my go to Action RPG when I'm in the mood. I've never even gotten to max level, so those meta things don't effect me. I know there's another big update coming, maybe some of your old builds will be viable again?

          Maybe, but I doubt it; flasks were a huge chunk of my movespeed :/ I'll probably look over the patch notes for next league once they come out, but in my experience, when GGG nerfs something, it never gets restored to anything like its former glory.

      It's already in an offshore bank account
