The first person to Platinum D4 should be given a medal of some sort and put into the Guinness book of records.

As a barbarian, the first skill you should upgrade is 'whirl'. The second in my opinion is 'bash'. Interested to hear what others are doing with their barb. I am L22.

 

 

Currently Demon Hunter L43. I've enjoyed the class on Diablo III more than the Barbarian, so decided to start with that one. My character's died five times working through L43 but I think I was lucky to find some gear that added +1 or +2 to the skills I am using.

Someone bought a Diablo IV on MightyApe through our affiliate link (PS4/5 and Xbox). Thank you, stranger.

 

(Oh, I just saw while copying the link about they have a 20% discount at the moment).

 

 

I am sure that was me :)

 

 

Thank you!

I am trying to do the side quests but only doing dungeons if they are part of a quest... Otherwise, I will do them later when I can get a mount and go around faster.

Maybe I am not far enough into the game right now, but between normal walking and fast travel, I rarely feel like travel time is much of an issue.

It is a huge area. I am lucky to have a 15% increased speed modifier. It's good when you get all side quests and realise two of them are close together so not much travel in between. I actually collected something for one quest while doing a different one. Saved some good time.

Yeah, I like the speed modifiers.

Finished Final Fantasy: Strangers of Paradise while hanging out with D4 friends. Somewhat of a odd game as a rework/prequel to FF1 events, but decent as a Team Ninja soulslike loot game.

Playing Signalis now, very nice throwback to original RE games. It even has a CRT mode in grpahics settings which is oddly nice on a OLED.

I’m about 10 hours into Star Wars: Jedi Survivor. At the start I found some of it very difficult - even on an easy difficulty setting. You need to be very precise with timing and button presses when scaling walls, jumping, mantling, changing zip lines, etc. I just could not get it and repeated some of them dozens of times before success. Hated that - some very loud swearing and very nearly said FI and put the game away. Combat was fine - just the precise movements were a PITA.

 

Then I got past the confined set of opening missions and into the open world - and everything changed dramatically. I now ‘get it’ much more and am starting to enjoy it. Can now see that it is likely to be very good. Happy days again and hopefully good for the brain. Beautiful looking too.

 

I think part of my problem is that I have just come from 100++ hours on Hogwarts Legacy - which has totally a different control layout - and it takes an aging brain quite a while to adapt to a new scheme.

 

One thing I don’t like at all, is that there is no discretionary manual save and auto-saves and formal save points are really few and far between. Means that if it’s been a while since a save point and you need to stop - when you go back to play again, you often have to re-play a large portion of what you have already done, just to get back to where you were. Grr.

 

Anyone else playing SWJS?

 

 

 

 





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

Well, spent some hours on Diablo IV. I now have a L56 Rogue character. I have collected all Altar of Lilith locations and completed only the dungeons that were relevant to the quests I got so far. I have all completed all but one stronghold. The character seems to be strong to go through some mobs - not easy sometimes but with some advanced planning (laying some traps before entering an area or activating a switch) it gets easier. 

 

I am enjoying it and still have lots of quests to complete.

I could never really get into bethesda games, at least not without mods. Far too much jank, and the awkward part is bethesda has a reputation for it…

As for new games coming out, after playing the demo on ps5 I’ve pre-ordered FFXVI as it’s a nice mashup of FF/DMC/dragons’s dogma. I wouldn’t usually get it on console but the PC version is looking to be delayed for a year, either to work through implementing directstorage or waiting out exclusivity deals with Sony/Epic.
