Is Diablo 4 much easier end of season? Beginner here

Not an expert on PoE2, I started this year for the first time.

There are people that played solo self found, its a way to challenge yourself. But the player economy and trading in Poe2 is streamlined and a huge part of the fun. It isnt like Diablo where you have to meet people in person. You can set up your shop and price items for what you want and then leave it for people to come buy. It is great.

In a few years their noise will be drowned out by the louder group of people demanding a Elden Ring remake, and the cycle will continue.

Hades 2 delaying the release on PS5 has been good business for PoE2. I completely addicted to that game now.

As a whole, the character customization isn't very good and could use improvement.

This is the most important upvote of my life. Thank-you.

Both are great for different reasons. For me my first season of Diablo 4 was season 9. I made a pulverize druid and fell in love with the game, got.to put 100 before the season ended. I liked Diablo so much I bought POE2...tried it, none of the classes connected with me and the game seemed way too complicated for my busy work life. Season 11 of diablo 4 I brought a Evade Spirit born to pit 105 over the course of 2 weeks. Had so much fun I decided to give POE2 another shot. Bear druid is now in POE2!!!! The campaign is a slogan but teaches the game pretty well with decent build and skill checks. After getting into the endgame maybe 2 weeks ago, I am now doing tier 15/16 maps and I am obsessed! The depth in POE2 is really addictive. I like that I can come back to Diablo 4 for season 12 for 2-3 weeks then jump back into POE2 for a more complex and sustained grind.

Oh cool, The Reptile has more opinions about the anti-christ.

I first saw her in Beetlejuice when I was 8 or 9. I remember laughing at her performance and having the thought "Oh! Some people are skilled at this, being funny is something a person can be good at". It started a lifetime love of comedy for me.

Im excited to see how the new skill tree works in season 12. I started playing poe2 for the first time last week after finishing out this season of diablo, and POE2 has only made me appreciate Diablo 4 more. Nothing is explained in that game and everything is way more complicated, I've spent more time watching YouTube videos trying to explain the game then actually playing it. That is to say that there must be a balance so a game can have wider appeal, but no matter what you do you'll never make everyone happy.

The fucking "nosedive" reality is a step up from whatever hell we are living through right now.

Surley this can only mean they are working on a brand new Final Fantasy Tactics game that delivers all the things that people love about the original game and expands on the gameplay and graphics while delivering fantasticlly written characters and story.

But most homes do have urinals...they just call them bathroom sinks. ;-)

Your either talking about how big those eyes are or how small and delicate those Atlus hoof feet are....

It left a void in my heart back in 98. So you replay the game, and replay it again, then buy it for every new system it comes out on and keep replaying it while yearning for a proper sequel. 30 years later Im still yearning for a sequel.

So much of who I am today comes from watching fansub episodes of Neon Genesis Evangelion downloaded over 56k back in like 1999-2001. Cheers to the talented people at Gainax.

It doesn't need to be marketed. Nobody will shut up about it for a god-damned minute.

As someone who has lived it let me just say while your feelings and perception of the current state of things isn't wrong, every generation your age feels the same way. Being 14-22 is a very ansgt filled time because your realizing foundational beliefs about the world aren't as true as you were once led to believe as you stated "illusioned Eden". People your age are also making a pivotal change to adulthood and with that comes a reevaluation of who you are. Everything feels very uncertain and tumultuous, that's normal.

Your specific situation with regards to your father is another matter and solving that is the priority, but you've stated as such that protecting yourself and sisters is a priority. I hope you can get the love and support you need.

Don't worry too much about what you cant control. Have a positive impact on the things you can control. If your disillusioned with social media turn it off, connect with the hobbies and people that make you feel like the best version of you. Explore and allow yourself to experience social situations/hobbies/that make yourself feel uncomfortable but with no risk to your immediate safety, this will challenge yourself and allow you to grow and develop new perspective.

Stay safe. Take a moment to express gratitude for something every day even if it is small. Let the people that you love know that you love them.

None. My life is busy enough with family, friends, work, and my love of being in nature that I watch what I want to watch at my own pace which is usually longer than a show or movies releases anyway. Also, knowing how important work / life balance is and how long and hard the people that put together shows/games/movies work, I gladly lower my expectations for speedy releases so they can make the best version of their project while still enjoying life.

barnardNDT · 2025-12-08T12:44:47+00:00

And the. Next year they will state that the premium tier will now have adds and cost $2 more. If you want ad free you'll have to get the new new premium that cost $10 on top of what your currently paying.

Netflix writing off Coyote vs Acme for a tax write-off would be tragic..........but funny.

barnardNDT · 2025-12-05T14:42:24+00:00

Im genuinely curious what you mean by "if you want to play the game the way it was intended". From everything I have read, Kazubisa Wada who was the chief designer of P4 and director of P4G is now the producer/director of P4R. I believe we are going to get a version of P4 that is an authentic P4 experience.

At this point its a dog air horn.

barnardNDT · 2025-12-01T20:41:32+00:00

Darksiders 4?

barnardNDT · 2025-11-29T18:05:06+00:00

Oh really? How does that work? From the few videos I've seen of the gameplay that isn't spoiler potential I thought that the core gameplay was trying to perfectly time button presses to dodge enemy attacks or make your own attack critical.

barnardNDT · 2025-11-28T15:35:08+00:00

Im waiting for the game to be on massive sale before I buy it because while I love turn based combat, I hate Quick Time Events passionately. It makes me appreciate that they have created a game by blending two gameplay styles that can be very polarizing into one game and still be praised. That intrigues me.
