Anybody else here play Grim Dawn? I first played it many moons ago when I downloaded a “trial version”. But I instantly loved it, so bought it on Steam. Played quite a bit and then got side-tracked by other games.
I was playing Divinity 2 recently, and it actually made me long to properly play Grim Dawn, as i find the combat and pacing of GD to me more my style.
Anyways, I believe there is some DLC coming in Q19 and wondering how the new DLC, as well as the current Ashes DLC, fits in with teh game. Is it linear (i.e. follows on from after main campaign) ? Or is it interwoven ? Debating whether or not to start a new game now…or wait till the DLC hits
Ashes of Malmouth is pretty cool, although I haven’t really played much of the actual expansion content yet, I only tried out the two new classes briefly. I was looking forward to the Necromancer so much, but in the end I didn’t really enjoy him that much (although apparently he only gets really decent from about level 40 onwards). The inquisitor is a great class though. Especially if you like dual wielding guns.
Hmm, I reckon it’s high time I get back into this and actually get to the expansion.
The guilt trip is real Soli, you know that I hardly ever use my Spreadsheet Simulator for gaming. I can’t, in good conscience, nominate any PC game when I cannot be sure I have the commitment to play it.
But I’m gonna give GD a chance, coz i can use a controller Diablo 3 on console was amazing with a controller, hoping to recapture that magic with GD
It doesn’t have to be a pc game. You can nominate 3 console games. Many of the games are available on multiple platforms. Like Hitman and many of the others.
Started this up again last night. Got my Inquisitor to level 23, really fun class. I enjoy the combination of dual wielded guns and the rune abilities of the class. Works lekker for crowd control. The latest patch also added a search bar to the devotion screen which is really helpful, because devotion is confusing as hell.
