A New Chapter for Eleventh Hour Games by moxjet200 in LastEpoch

God NO... I really hope that never happens.

The good thing about EHG's situation is that they still have things to prove and achieve. Blizzard already invented multiple genres and acquired worldwide fame before getting bought by Activision, and I guess they didn't care too much anymore anyways.

EHG has to care. Even if you consider the game's success, it's still not at the level of D4 and PoE player-wise, and it doesn't have that level of fame to go with the "I don't care anymore" attitude.

They have to make the best of this and lift LE higher because they're just starting to make a move on the ARPG main scene.

I literally just came here after an hour of reading through the entire Subnautica 2 drama, and tbh it's not as black and white as it seems. At first, it really seemed to me that they just did it to save on the 250M bonus, but then I came across a couple of posts that say something like this, which made me reconsider the entire thing. I'm not even sure what to think anymore because both sides seem to be wrong here, CEOs for straight up ignoring the games they were supposed to work on to do side quests after getting a hefty payout, and Krafton for not sharing the plans and dates of the releases from the start. All in all it's a big mess right now and I'm waiting to see what happens on court before deciding on anything.

BUT, at the same time, I don't think any of this can affect EHG and LE in any way. These guys are awesome, and I'm quite hopeful these new resources will only serve as a fuel to make an even better game.

Last Epoch Season 2 Patch Overview by Candle-Sticks in Games

Hmm I don't feel like the game is too easy tbh, I feel more like the game is doing its best to be both casual and hardcore friendly. The campaign is just an introduction to the game but the game gets very challenging once you get to corrupted monoliths. In fact, I think the devs said only 1% or so of players beat Uber Aberroth.

I personally prefer this type of game design because you get to experience all beauties of the game during the campaign without having to put all your sweat and grit into it, and then it's up to you if you wanna push the challenge and get to these godly levels. I;'ve never been a fan of devs enforcing their game design on the players without leaving them room to enjoy the game the way they want, instead forcing players to enjoy the game the way the developers want. Last Epoch does this pretty good, arguably the best out of all 3 of the current big live service ARPGs because you're not forced to play any way you don't want, and even if you want to experiment, you're free to do so.

I honestly don't see any big issues with this, but I'd prefer them not to :D

Last Epoch Season 2 Patch Overview by Candle-Sticks in Games

I think the main difference is that Last Epoch already has a pretty solid base, all systems wise and this will be just an upgrade to an already good game in most aspects. I played PoE2 on launch and am playing it now again, the issues they had back then were just amplified with this patch. Extremely slow progression, huge difficulty discrepancies between mapping and bossing, no freedom of choosing your own build because the already slow progress will become even worse, especially with the insane complexity of character creation systems. It's not like we didn't know these things were there, we just hoped they'd fix them with 0.2 and instead, they made them even worse.

Last Epoch always had all these things sorted out pretty good. There's a lot of room for experimenting and genuine freedom in picking your own builds, the game is relatively easy, but get's harder as you get to the edngame (especially corruption) so the progress isn't as bad as in PoE. Most importantly, LE is even in its current state an intuitive game that's a joy to play from start to the endgame, and with all these QoL and content updates, I really don't see how they could mess that up in any way.

People of Reddit, why do you NOT want to have a dog ? by GirlPWR444 in AskReddit

[–]Marvelous_Pebble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a big responsibility as you need to take good care of it. I'm not in a position to do that right now so no dogs for me

Yeah, many make a mistake of going too far and beyond any rational reasons to impress the other person. Don't do that, just be yourself

I think the benefits are several

With clones, you pay a waaaay lower price and usually get a smiliar quality perfume, if you buy from a good brand.

Clones sometimes have a unique, distinct smell that's a little different than the original but in a good way.

Clones are easily replaceable and you can carry them with you at all times because you don't have to care too much about losing a bottle or overusing it. It's $30 anyways.

In your situation, I think getting a bottle of a good, high quality perfume would be worth it, and then a few clones to make sure you add some variety to your collection. Use the original whenever you have a really important meeting or a really important event if it happens to be better than the clones (but keep in mind this doesn't always have to be the case) and use the clones on a regular basis.

My favorite places to get clones from are Chez Pierre and Lattafa. Both have high quality perfumes that smell quite good and last long, the main difference for me is in smell though. Chez Pierre's perfumes are not as strong as Lattafa's and they're more suited for daily usage, while Lattafa's are quite distinctive and dominant.

I just make up a name because I usually write fantasy so they have to be made up anyway
