Why do you think Grim dawn isn't as successful

Why do you think Grim dawn isn't as well known or successful as the other top Two ARPG competitors, Path of exile and Diablo 3?

One is free and the other comes from the Mac Daddy if the genre.

probably because grim dawn sucks

What the other guy said, it's tough to compete against one that's free and the other that's the biggest motherfucker in town

Path of exile has a great plot and nails the horror genre.
Grim dawns world is basically "Path of exile except blander"

Diablo 3 running on D2's name is like a professional athlete who turned obese in their 30s and trying to still sell themselves based on their 20s accomplishments.

>path of exile for plot
no people play path of exile because of the endgame

The plot of Path of exile is the reason why its endgame is so good.
Anygame can just say "here's random maps, go farm". Its what Diablo 3 does for example. But Path of exile managed to tie its endgame to its world in a way that makes you farming actually feel just as important as the actual regular game.
Plus the way you unlocked maps gives you a constant feeling of progression and things to look forward to-- each map isn't just a new area, its its own split off universe and conquering it is like beating a raid in WOW, it lets you go to the next raid.

>game costs money
>expansions also cost money
>poe is free forever
this is basically it, i'd try it if it were free.

Why do you say that? its gameplay and mechanics feel way better that Diablo 3, and its not "Roll ranged or get the fuck out of my game" like path of exile is.

But poe has MTX

it's mostly cosmetics

IMO the music is as good as D1 and the game play is amazing you can customize your character to be an actual unique build. Just wish it had some sort of PvP with hardcore or even regular characters. The customer builds tho... so good.

>mostly
He also means you have to buy more vault space

Have to buy Map tabs to literally function, have to buy a currency tab because somebody thought "WHAT IF WE MADE CURRENCY LIKE 100 DIFFERENT ITEMS INSTEAD OF GOLD", you have to buy a cards tab, ect.

its not so much stash space as much as if diablo made you pay 10 bucks to be able for your character to hold gold.

it runs like shite on my machine and deleted all of my secret files when i told it to uninstall itself from the launchbar

Poe would be perfect game for me, if not trading. I can't stand it and it's the way developers scam you into buying stashes.

>secret files
We all weep for your lost porn user.

>lvl 85
>dps 5089

My level 52 character does more dps than you.

That's auto-attack dps user. To get a correct DPS score you'd need to hover over it with your mouse at which point it'd list your skill dps as well.

I beat it about a year ago and can't remember anything about it.

then get grimdawn

So I bought the game during the sale and having a blast but I want to know when Ill be able to respec my class and stats. My current build is working but I want to try something more up close and personal.

I got a potion for stats after level 50, but I don't know about class, probably never.

You can respec from the very beginning user. You can't change your class focus once you lock them in (Go soldier/Necro? You're staying soldier necro permanently, gotta reroll for a new combo), but you can reset your skill points for use in those classes. just talk to the lady in the corner of the prison.

thanks

Defenses in Grim dawn are boring; Armor is the same for everyone, same mechanics. Path of exile has a different type of armor for Agility, Str and Int, which makes the three feel more unique.
Additionally, Grim dawn is Confusing as FUCK with all of its stats. POE? You got 4 Resistances. THAT'S FUCKING IT. Grim dawn? like 10 and they all function differently, not to mention a shit ton of terms thrown around without any good explanation.

Well thats kinda a shame but I guess it isn't horrible.

sounds like poe is shallow.

I like deep customization

You get deep by using uniques. Plus POE you need to juggle like 5 skills to work properly, Grim dawn is a 1-2 skill snoozefest.

Diablo 3 is a dead game, man. Grim Dawn just received a new expansion.

Are the grim dawn expansions worth it?
I don't want to drop 20 dollarydos each on them honestly

I got 160 hours of path of exile for free. So I bought the $160 supporter pack.

No regrets.

Have you seen the passive tree, and the skill linking system?

"dead" for diablo 3 is literally what Grim dawn's most popular state was. And while they can just shit out whatever they want for a new expansion for grim dawn due to it lacking a hard backstory or lore, for diablo they decided to start working on D4 instead.

>D4

You know its coming.

Looks cool honestly, but my rig is shitty as hell so a console port would be pretty nice

There's 11k people playing Grim Dawn, right now. At 1:30am central time. That's not bad at all.

that's 110

probably more people playing D2 than Grim dawn.

Not to mention that you have to compare how many are playing POE and D3, which is drastically more.

Why does Yea Forums have a hate boner for Grim Dawn?

Grim dawn? More like Grim Yawn.

D3 is objectively shit though. It only has players based on name alone and blizzdrones.

Who knows, it's a fun game. It's not as good as PoE, but it's fun. Better than Diablo 3.

Just use an external save editor to respec or change classes.

because they sunk time into another game and have to justify their choice.

Yea Forums is poorfags who don't want to admit that poe is bad.

cus titan quest had cooler classes and more rewarding items(on hell difficulty)

POE is great so long as you're ranged.

poe shitters only constantly shitpost GD cause they're scared of it desu

How many goddamned microtransactions would you have to buy to reach 90 bucks user?
And that's without any cool cosmetics like 90% of the what people buy in POE are.
