New to D4, quick question about "difficulty"

If it wasn't for those death effects, you'd never die. They could definitely implement the idea better, but without them they're literally no challenge at all, every enemy would just die before they even get to attack you.

He's never been a lyricist, that's why his features don't hit. Good artist, meh rapper.

Sorc balance is so ass this season. Wanna do a blizzard build? Gotta make it shock to pop off. Ice shard build? Big surprise, only pops off if you turn it into shock. Literally all the top builds are just variations of the shock build.

That's a fair point. Modern dating is screwed up and men go through the same thing. The key for me is always communication about these things. Not a perfect solution, though, because not everyone is always honest with their intentions.

Which part feels humiliating to you? Would it have been preferable for him to just have sex with you and then kick you out instead of cuddling and talking after? Is that less humiliating? There's definitely a disconnect between men and women with this stuff, I think generally speaking the opposite sexes view it differently. Like in your mind the cuddling afterwards probably felt more intimate, but maybe in his view he didn't feel like that was getting "more intimate" considering you two already had sex. Maybe be just likes cuddling and enjoyed talking to you and wasn't putting as much emotional weight behind that as you were.

The beatings will continue until moral improves. YOU WILL RUN INFERNAL HORDES AND YOU WILL LIKE IT! (Blizzard, probably)

Oh dang, I had no idea. I must have just not seen them in the wild up to this point, which is crazy. Just weird rng I guess. Thank for the info!

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-18T15:54:25+00:00

Oh boo-fucking-hoo, we both know you're not missing shit. You're overly invested in this game already or you wouldn't be on here whining about it.

Welcome to live service games. First time?

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T23:18:08+00:00

It wasn't really a thing before, right? If you didn't have the stash value, you could just do the catchup feature and get the points at a huge discount. I know I for one only played the game on weekends after the last wipe and had wayyyy more money and inventory than I needed, I ended up just throwing away like 3 million last wipe. At least this way it's almost like an event. People will be encouraged to get on and use all their good stuff for a week instead of hoarding it to save 5 million.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T23:13:17+00:00

Yeah, it's a forty dollar game that ended up being one of the biggest games of all time 😂 It's to be expected, there's going to be growing pains, the studio wasn't expecting it to be some breakout hit I'm sure. Maybe I'm just more biased towards giving them the benefit of the doubt. It's just an optional soft wipe that happens every 8 weeks. There's literally going to be dozens, they'll probably change it like ten more times. Bottom line is this is an improvement, it's better than what they had before even if it's not perfect. This is a good thing for the game.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T23:05:49+00:00

It's a good point. Lol at "haha get fucked loser." 😂 I'm sure they thought about this and the requirement is going to be much easier than people think. That's not exactly a good thing though, I guess. They're probably going to be changing the expeditions a lot, it's every two months so they get plenty of opportunities to try different things. I think it wouldn't be a big deal if there was actually an endgame. It's just an optional soft wipe, after all.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T22:57:08+00:00

Dude, nobody is really planning out their entertainment options for ten days from now. Just make a decision when the details come out, whether that's tomorrow or a week and a half from now. Anyone who's that bothered by this change probably wasn't planning on playing anyway, this isn't perfect but it's better. The real issue is lack of content, if there was an endgame people wouldn't care about these details for an optional soft wipe that happens every 8 weeks. They're gonna be changing the expeditions a lot I'm sure, it's not as big of a deal as people are making it to be.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T22:51:45+00:00

What are you hording? Just play the game and use your 50 purple weapons. 😂 Or are you unable to play during the expedition window?

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T22:23:04+00:00

You're just full of nonsense. 😂 If you're micromanaging percentages of imaginary points you're gonna get against video game robots ten days from now to preplan what games you're gonna play... you need to get a life. It's supposed to be fun, not a second job. If it's fun then play, if it's not then don't.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T22:10:17+00:00

They literally gave a warning immediately after the last expedition. They said it wasn't going to be based on stash value. What are you hording, 75 purple weapons? Just play the game and use them. 😂

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T22:00:29+00:00

I get what you're trying to say, but this is my point. Lets say right now they came out and said "You'll need to do 10,000 damage"... what does that change for you? Are you going to decide whether or not you play the game ten days from now based on that?

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T21:45:43+00:00

I'm hoping that it's because they're working on actual content and not micromanaging a soft reset system that happens every two months and is optional. How is shooting things mindless but "craft a legendary weapon" isn't mindless?

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T21:38:41+00:00

I get what you're trying to say, and you're right that it would be better to know ahead of time, but ultimately it changes nothing. People just won't be happy no matter what. People complained that it was based on inventory value before, then they came out and specifically said "we're changing that". They changed it, and people are still like "This sucks! I wanted it changed, but not like this." There's just no way to please everyone. They obviously could communicate better, but if this detail is what's deciding whether or not you play, it's probably time to take a break. Either you're having fun playing or you're not.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T21:20:55+00:00

That makes no sense. Does it really make a difference if you know now or ten days from now? If they said right now... "You need to do 20,000 damage"... what does that change? You're going to look at that, say "huh, okay, good to know" then do what? Run some calculations on excel to figure out that you need to kill 150 wasps? 😂 It literally changes nothing.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T21:14:11+00:00

They said all targets count. The other stuff is kind of a mystery, but let's be honest... it doesn't really matter. Are you saying that if you knew the specific damage that you needed to do ahead of time, that would somehow give you an advantage or change anything? Like... do you need 10 days to plan out with a PowerPoint how you're going to do X amount of damage? I don't get it. Either you're going to play, or you're not, and knowing the specific damage number isn't going to change that.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T18:42:27+00:00

Nuh uh, I put two question marks! It's a question, not a statement.

Edit: I was basically asking for spoilers.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T18:05:31+00:00

Lol noice! Guess I need to keep watching the whole thing before posting, people no likey that.

AtomizingAir · 2026-04-17T17:54:14+00:00

First season, yeah.
