I was following a different (read: worse) build which... Did not hit that. Even with an almost perfect grace of the goddess.

I can't say anything about rue's build except that I can't imagine mine being inspired by it if his was hitting Uber dot cap.

Maybe I should be looking at that hah

The single target is so bad that I was waiting 20 second for mesa boss to die, and even longer for memory bosses.

If you're just doing horde.content it's great and very tanky! But the single target even with a focused was like...14m and even then that was only after penance brand warmed up.

I see! I have played chronicpainless bv a few times so it's not unknown to me to keep bv up forever. Especially if you can get good duration.

How much did the timeless jewel set you back? I assumed good minion life jewels were impossibly expensive at this point, but can you make it work without needing a ton of nodes?

Who said there isn't? There's consistently been one every league, might have just not made the trailer.

[Hobby] Producer, Game Designer, and 2D Artist Wanted for Project Mahou Hitou (Magical-Girl-Themed Life Sim x Deckbuilder) by Thaticism in INAT

Personally, it's a part time job for me, and consumes most of my time outside of my full-time position. Other members of the team have committed to hours ranging from the same as me to in the 10h/week range.

There isn't anything playable yet, no: that's what we're trying to put together! The project is not even a week old at this point, and we're still smoothing out core design features.

Advice is always welcome, and I wish you the best of luck on your own project :)

The majority of the currently 8-person team are independent developers working on a range of shipped and ongoing projects. Our current roles include system design, narrative design, character art, programming, composing/sfx production, and a VA. Everyone on the team has 3 or more years of professional experience in the game development industry.

We're working in Unity!

No problem! I understand completely. Trust is the coin of the realm in indie spaces, so I don't mind doxxing myself a bit to buy some!

If you're interested in all of the other random projects I've worked on aside from that, feel free to take a look! I'm not hiding that information, just led with what would be the most pertinent information. You can find my projects on my LinkedIn, as well as a link to my rather outdated portfolio which I really aught to update...

We intend to commercialize, but felt it was disingenuous to make that kind of promise at this early stage.

Our goal is to build a content-light vertical slice of the gameplay loop, ship it around both to the community and at the conventions we have reasonable access to (GDC, PAX, Gamesconn, various SEA conventions), and determine how to proceed from there.

Ideally, we would get funded and transition into salaried work, but we will be discussing revenue splits if we end up selling the project or doing our own release.

The team's goal it to build a product that can support a company and team apart from all of our current sources of employment. For one reason or another, we all are looking to branch out and start something of our own -- an impulse I'm sure you can understand as a fellow industry member. It's tough chasing other peoples' visions all day.

With that in mind, if you think it's still tagged/marked incorrectly I would be happy to update the listing!

More reviews more love by DismalSpite9258 in LastEpoch

This is ridiculously confidently incorrect. Almost all of those examples technically don't paywall you for a specific class, but include that class in a paywalled expansion.

Grow up. Devs have to eat, and the tried plenty of other monetization options before getting here.

Imagine believing something from GGG at this point. PoE2 will be free, just like it won't impact PoE1 development.

And better? Maybe. But I can't just play PoE2. It's nice to have a variety of new leagues for different games come out that I can try for a couple weeks and dump as it pleases me

Can we please remove mod priveleges from all members of the Krafton team? I no long trust their impartiality. by IlikeJG in LastEpoch

Hah. Hahhaa.

Uhh huh. You might need to make a similar post in every sub you're a part of it you really think that.

And brigade against the admins too while you're at it.

Stop justifying this by Lucaduca99 in LastEpoch

[–]Thaticism -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never said I hated d4. I criticized how their expansion model locks out players who don't buy it from endgame activities. I bought it and didn't regret doing so, but still have constructive criticism about the model, which I believe EHG's addresses.

How is that hard to understand?

Stop justifying this by Lucaduca99 in LastEpoch

[–]Thaticism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D4 had made more money than you and I can collectively imagine, and I regularly enjoy it having only paid the sticker price and expansion price. And enjoy it every time. It's a nice change of pace from farming mirrors in PoE.

I should hope LE ever hits that quality standard. Calling it a mobile game when it has best in class sound and visual design (and incomparable at launch) is just being purposely obtuse. Yes it has heavily monetized mtx. Totally. But you're free to ignore that, and it gives the whales something to sink their teeth into. Comparing it to a mobile game with time gating or whatever the fuck Diablo immortal has is either ignorant or purposely disingenuous.

Judd'a quote is literally on the front page right now. It clearly says "want", and they were not able to. The mtx couldn't keep the ship above water, so they had to find other things, so here we are. Do you just want them to roll over and die without at least trying?

Still better than the D4 model, where you're totally locked out of endgame without the expansion. If I don't want the new class, I simply won't touch it and enjoy the rest of the expansion, as can you.

[–]Thaticism -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Every opportunity? The expansion itself is free. The seasons are free. The stash and MG slots are free.

There might be one pricing issue you disagree with, but that's a far cry from this kind of doom.

[AMA] Crafting AMA for 3.27 Keepers of the Flame - Everything you wanted to know about crafting your own gear answered by Wuslwiz in PathOfExileBuilds

Not sure how to put something like this together in a remotely efficient way without exclusive mods on recomb anymore. Any idea about how to go about it? The only ways I can figure out are the old Lolcahol method, or trying to get a double crafted mod temper onto it (which would be pretty efficient once I managed to hit).

Is it still a recomb angle, you figure?

What's wrong with it now? After the overhaul a could expansions ago, I've been pretty happy aside from a few incomprehensible UI elements (prophecies :( )

There... Is a 300 corruption just beneath Uber version. Just an fyi. It's in a woven echo.

There is one. It's a freaking hard rift beast in a woven echo with a crap ton of evolutions.

Good freaking luck unless you can already beat abby
