    • @enlightendbel
      @enlightendbel Год назад +13

      He's being smart about making these videos too.
      He works out his expanded thoughts during his live streams and then compacts and reiterates these thoughts in a video like this.
      Kripp usually signs on when I'm getting ready to go to bed and with that I've been able to see his thoughts and feelings on this (and hearthstone expansions/patches) progressing live, to then see him put his thoughts into a more compact video when he's worked through them.
      It's how reviews for games should be done. Build a ton of experience playing, let your thoughts and feelings develop and then summarize them afterwards.
      10/10 will watch again.

      People can't talk about anything without immense hyperbole anymore. It's like the internet has turned us all into tabloid newspapers, trying to sell our opinions rather than discuss things. Everything is either the greatest thing of all time or one of the worst things of all time, there's nothing in between.
      Some people, usually more old school ones, have resisted the bullshit, but measured analysis doesn't sell as well so unfortunately only people with huge legacy subscriber bases really stand out to the algorithm.

      ​@@thisGuy481 loot filter would be preferable to save picking up a whole inventory, but an affix filter might be the only halfway house we can hope for. I was getting bored with doing dungeons to finish my zone completion towards the end of the beta and hadn't really considered where that boredom was coming from. Actually killing the enemies and fighting the bosses hadn't worn on me, it was the fact that I was being expected to pick up an entire inventory of garbage and then sort the (likely non-existent) wheat from the chaff at the end, if not in the middle depending on luck. This will probably be better during leveling at full release because you'll at least be finding items with usable affix rolls that are higher power than your equipped gear at a more reasonable pace compared to searching for 2/3 or 3/3 affix drops, but still. Worse than that though, the 2/3 and 3/3 finds during leveling will be sticking you between a rock and a hard place. How much armor loss is it going to take before you downgrade your 3/3 imprinted legendary to a 1/3 or even 2/3 rare? The mobs aren't getting any easier to kill, after all.

    This is one of the best game critiques ever. Bravo. Nice to see that Blizzard seems to think so too because they seem to have explicitly addressed many of K's comments in their latest dev blog!
    The one thing I do like about a limited skill-bar is that if I can only use ~6 abilities (two less on a Summoning Necro who has to use up skill slots for their summons) then there's a lot of potential variety in that when I get bored, I can completely switch up my spec for today and play frost instead of fire, etc. This then of course interacts with the cost to respec the character, and the complexity of respecing Paragon points, even if you can afford it. Being able to have (or, oh god, buy) multiple spec/build slots so that I can maintain my different specs in parallel and switch between them at will seems like a feature this game WILL get at some point.
    But otherwise, K's comments parallel mine almost perfectly. I really think it will take a year of *release* to make this game what it can be. And the only way that process even *begins* is to RELEASE IT so that they must face REALITY, not just developer/producer fantasy, hopes, and dreams. Face it guys, it's going to be PAINFUL, but ultimately this game still has great promise and, in a year or two, should indeed be that 9.0 or 9.5 title.
    T.
    P.S. I really sympathize with the "as you level you always get less powerful" feeling. WoW has had this problem for quite a while now, and power-creep is really their only endgame mechanic yet what's the point of even playing the game if after all this work I feel LESS powerful in the end???

    Good analysis, especially on the enemy and gear scaling. This is something that was done perfectly in D2, and Blizzard changed it in D3 to presumably make the game more addictive, but the result was the exact opposite. When you don't have a clearly defined goal in mind (such as reaching the ultimate level or obtaining the ultimate weapon for your build), nothing you do really matters. It boggles my mind that nothing has been learned for more than 10 years.

      Unfortunately there is likely a lot more to it game-design-wise than just increasing the player cap. Increasing the player cap for these already graphically demanding fights means more things rendering on screens which I imagine means problems for people playing on consoles and with weaker video cards.
      That being said, if they CAN do this, I personally think the solution is having world bosses as they are now, but then when the content starts, making an instance of it prioritizing anyone in a prebuilt raid-party of 12 (aka 3 normal parties together). Anyone who isn't in a party is then grouped into a raid-party of leftover players... easy!

So I'd teleport id summon frost blades, teleport into a group of enemies, hit frost nova and all those cooldowns would summon 3 sets of swords, and within a second or two the cooldown for another is already ready. There's also a skill tree spot that maxed out gives +3% damage per summoned conjuration. Boss fights I could easily get 8+ swords going at a time. It was a really fun strong build.

      Even if it is an old build of the game, there's enough to be cautious. The MMO elements, the repetitive dungeons, mounts included solely for the sale of mounts, world bosses on a timer, $70-$100 price tag, etc. Given Blizzard's recent history of milking players, I went from preorder to refunded and waiting for Season 1 and maybe a price drop.

      @@andyfibb Well Kripp has been streaming for over a decade so a 20 something year old can have been watching Kripp half their life. Personally I'm a bit too old for that but he could technically be as old as like 22 or so.

    I used to watch Kripp when he played PoE and made those hilarious videos like the one about being efficient with calorie intake by drinking orange juice. Watching this now is kinda nostalgic. He seems so nice and sweet and well adjusted. Love to see it.

    Kripp is a bonafide pro. I haven't watched your videos in some time since I got off HS in 2019, but I'm glad to see you still make top-quality content.

    Welcome back the best diablo3 player =))) Nice to see someone explain this huge itemssytem. I agree there alot of more work to this game! I think D4 will be good after 3-4 big patches.

    This is probably the most comprehensive and clear review I've seen on a number of levels, and I really will heartily echo the BARB sentiment - they really need to address the NOT FUN FACTOR OF MELEE and frankly even though I am a big warrior/melee type person I won't touch this class before reconfiguring. Thank you for the content. I do think that some of your criticisms sound like a guy dating a fairly hot girl and telling us that her knees are a bit too sharp. But wait.. now I'm doing the same thing..?! Good shit.
