I can't imagine this game with multiplayer (I want multiplayer, but it's like Dark Souls - completely different gameplay solo and with a partner. And not always for the better.
The update is great ! Love the removal of a RNG layer of needing good stat rolls. Think a chest needs to spawn at the end of each crucible level, current is not a problem for players who can beat EK..but building a char is a lot harder without XP and loot during the run.
A very very bad patch. I'm level 23 and i can't level up : no XP in crucible and no enough XP to farm on the world ( maybe play 3hour to gain a level but seriously ...) The game design is horrible.
With the Crucible out of the picture for one to farm exp and equipment the game feels more daunting to those that haven't reached late game yet... I think those changes were not thought through properly.
they are. the crucible wasn't meant to be there for us to grind gear, it's meant to have it's own place to go hand in hand with the other content and not to replace it.
@@sonoftristram In a completed version of the game this would make sense. In this version where materials are scarce and really painful to farm to upgrade or craft anything tier 2/3 it is really bad and pointless.

On the one hand, it's good that you don't have to pick up things in the dungeon - it saves time, but it also makes you a lot less money. And collecting by going through the location and collecting - I don't really want to)
@LarryPuss you need to defeat the boss to loot ... But with this update is harder . So if you need stuff you can't farm stuff in crucible ! And where to farm ? A lot of people will leave the game
Regarding the new road to black trench i find it then i went inside the black trench and there is a lever to incrase water level but i cant get to the door do u know how to ?
Is not only that u cant get exp you also cant farm gear or stuff Neither. Exalted Items looks great but that Buff is only for the crucible or is for the open world too?
@@adrianborgesdelpozo the Exalted weapons works outside of the crucible as well. It’s a huge advantage to have them. If your roll for example good stats on your weapon but the percentage of those stats are not very high you can now exalt the weapon and maximise them.

@@Reketok1 The loot is also bad as hell, compared to before when u could loot the entire area but the run to the Boss was only 3 lvls. For me they need to add a daily shop to the NPC using the crucible currency.
they are still there and won't go away since they are a fix part of the design. I don't feel them being a pain at all.

The problem is now, that the crucible is now intensly rescource demanding. You get nothing, if you don't win your run, but durability still lowers on loss and food won't bebrecovered. Use all your high tier food in a run. Guess you are now 30 silver in the red. That is fucking absurd.
