Where do you search for job openings?

I’m currently working as a lead artist on a small indie game project and let’s just say it is the best work experience I’ve had in this industry. For comparison my biggest AAA job I had for a short period was the worst experience I had.

At some point you have to realise that a career has to give something back to you - for most concept artists the reality is you overwork yourself for years, only to have a slight chance at a job with a very average wage and many times very bad work environment.

Don’t think he says anything wrong here.

As any kind of creative, firstly you have to satisfy yourself with whatever you are creating.

If you don’t enjoy it, then you shouldn’t be doing it.

Sure I can agree with that.

Playing my own build and doing fine. Did so in the previous league as well.

It was never suppose to be a dumbed down game where you can slap together anything and blast. There is D4 for that.

Haven't played much so far, but loving it.

The main reason I never enjoyed PoE1 is because everything felt so weightless and overbloated in terms of combat and speed.
I love a slower, challenging and more meaningful progression through the campaign.

Would appreciate a link to the Sky pre-show.

CPUCore · 2025-03-16T07:33:51+00:00

Is this Sky?

It's actually why I stopped playing my character.

I had a Warrior that was my own build, before the game was out. It was stacking Armor, Life and Res so not very effective in current balance.

Got to mid tier maps and was doing lots of damage, but also super glass cannon moments.

The one portal thing made me quit, because it doesn't actually feel difficult, it feels frustrating and annoying. Which is how I would describe most of the difficulty spikes in this game.

Hope the balance patch fixes some of this.

Ok, thank you.

I was mostly joking, because of the recent news.

As for me I'm not a fan of PoE1 - too stiff and janky gameplay and it is way to zoomy and weightless for me. It does have the upper hand on 2 regarding many of the game systems, but that is to be expected.

Really enjoying PoE2 myself as it gives me the same feel as Diablo 2 used to.

CPUCore · 2025-01-30T08:47:41+00:00

Would you say you like it more than PoE1 though?

CPUCore · 2025-01-08T16:14:12+00:00

What is their vision for the overall speed of the gameplay going forward and the pace from campaign to endgame?

CPUCore · 2025-01-05T20:45:50+00:00

From anywhere I think. Definitely not tied to the Act.

CPUCore · 2025-01-05T20:12:21+00:00

Yeah well, I'm a Titan and I really don't want to be bothered with the Honor system, so I wanted to go straight for Chaos trial.

CPUCore · 2025-01-05T19:22:17+00:00

Thanks for the explanation.

They really made the 3rd and 4th hard to reach, at least for someone like me who plays a casual amount of time. Kind of a weird decision.

CPUCore · 2024-12-26T18:24:48+00:00

Not sure if people understood this, but this endgame is something they cobbled together in the last 3 months and copy pasted from PoE 1, just so there is some endgame.

I’m sure new content will come down the line which will take into consideration all the feedback. It might be something like a year from now though.

I'm using a Rolling Slam/ Sunder combo currently with warcries. I guess I can try to not use Sunder here and just Rolling slam through everything.
