I fucking love Mech Commander. That era of PC strategy games with the pseudo-3D terrain and the 2D unit sprites was just fucking gorgeous in my opinion. Tiberian Sun, Mech Commander, Red Alert 2, the Diablo games. So many games came out in that style that haven't aged at all. The games that have aged terribly are the early 3D generation which came just after. Mech Commander 2 being an example.

I think Grim Dawn comes out on top. It doesn't quite have the infinite gear treadmill grinding of PoE so if you enjoy that then PoE will probably be your shtick. Personally I found PoE to be excruciatingly boring and could never muster the will power to play past Act 2.

if like ARPGs you'll probably enjoy them both since they're both pretty good games for what they are

I played TQ and PoE. If you like TQ you might like PoE. The thing is PoE deals with skills and itemization much differently than TQ, and if you want to progress past a certain point you need to play it like a multiplayer, as in partying and trading with other people. Playing solo and relying on finding items on your own is excruciating slow.

Nobody seems to like or talk about Apocalypse but I think it feels more "modern" than the original X-COM and feels less "aged". The pixel art is more appealing (though it could be better) and the game just feels more grounded and plays better.
>>
>>331388679

Most arpg's these days focus on the single or party play aspect of ARPG's, a focused story, grindable loot, self contained systems that work online or offline.

Path of Exile is an MMOARPG made by a bunch of hicks in New Zealand who put a few too many thousand hours into Diablo 2.

Grim Dawn is great but doesn't have the complexity of PoE. If you only want to play the game for between 10 and 300 hours Grim Dawn is probably the better option. But it's non-randomized levels and non-existent endgame mean it's out of juice as soon as you start making for 5th and 6th characters. It also relies much heavier on RNG and items than PoE. PoE is the arpg for people who love arpg's and have no problem playing them fur thousands upon thousand of hours. It's the best arpg of all time as long as you are a fan of the genre. If you just have nostalgic memories of playing singleplayer d2 then Grim Dawn is more your style. PoE is for people who turn arpg's into the only game they play.

The thing that ticked me off is people talking about how great GGG is when the design is clearly to push people into buying things. Best example is stash tabs, yes, you can get mule accounts but no one is seriously going to inconvenience themselves if they play long term. You could stay with 4 tabs without mules, but that means you won't be able to trade which is a huge drawback because the drop rate sucks. GGG can easily make the drop better, but they won't for good reason. Another example is cosmetic effects. They said you can solo, but they made it so much more difficult compared to partying that it would be absolutely sub-optimal to remain solo. If the players party more then they are exposed to the cosmetic effects others have brought. And don't get me started on their 10K packs. It's an attempt to take advantage of people's good will to buy something that clearly doesn't cost nor is it worth 10 grand.

I tried turn-based a couple times, but I really wanted to give real-time a go. Most things I'd read said it's the way to play the game. I was afraid turn-based might be "unbalanced" for the game or could wind up a little too tedious

I did have a couple bad encounters with Poppers in turn-based where reaction fire didn't come through.

I guess I could give it another shot with turn-based. The one other thing I was really unclear on was on the importance of live capture. After I've procured a live specimen of each alien, am I free to genocide the rest like the other games?

Dude, in terms of the amount of content PoE is literally the most free game that exists on this earth, its been this free, the whole time, even though it was literally made by like 10 dudes in fucking New Zealand, the only game that comes close in terms of level of free is Dota 2 and thats made by fucking valve.

You don't know what it even means for a video game to age. If you had any imagination or sense, you would be able to figure it out on your own, but since you don't, I'll explain it to you.

A video games does not truly age, but our standards for quality games change over time. If an old game has clunky, unresponsive controls and you're used to fluid responsive controls from newer games, you can consider that older game to have aged poorly. This goes for graphical quality as well, but it mostly applies to gameplay.

You would know this if you actually bothered to play some really old games.

I'm not sure if they specifically went about balancing the game around one or the other but both have some things that make them harder than the other. In turn based poppers and brainsuckers are a bitch but in turn based on your turn you can regularly walk right up to aliens and unload on them.

In real time those aliens aren't as much of an issue from what I've seen but then you have your soldiers using up so much ammo that that could be an issue. Also in real time I've seen grenade spam be an issue in some videos I've watched. It's also harder to keep track of what's going on as everything is happening at once. Aliens continuously firing, especially if they have explosives, can also cause issues in real time that are less of an issue in turn based. Real time will also cause more damage which can be an issue in the buildings of corporations as this can make them hate you.

>The one other thing I was really unclear on was on the importance of live capture. After I've procured a live specimen of each alien, am I free to genocide the rest like the other games?
Live aliens are for research. Once you get a live alien you can research it both alive and dead and then yeah, you don't have to worry about it anymore. So once you come across a new alien type you should try and capture it alive but once you do that you don't need to worry about it.

Being too trigger happy though can destroy equipment. This is especially important when you get encounters with new tech that you want to use, though it's mostly an issue with explosives. Both using explosives on aliens and aliens having explosives that could detonate. And there are some technologies (at least one that I can think of) that will be destroyed by shooting the alien with most weapons.

Basically you want one live captured alien of each species for research but beyond that it doesn't matter.

A regular developer, indie or not, would've limited the character slots to 4 before asking for money, would've put a price on creating a guild, would've put a limit on a friends list, would've added in a bunch of side shit like paid name transfers, or paid guild name transfers, they would've done all of this and more and still been able to say "We have no P2W micro transactions in our game"

There's been some innovations made on the genre since D2, but I think that Diablo set the standard so high that everyone's been kind of boxed into trying to replicate it rather than innovate. I think the day Diablo 2 officially becomes aged is the day that arpgs finally drop the potions mechanic. Which may never happen, but one can dream.

>>331392457
Stash tabs are absolute bullshit, and with the new p2w Premium trade tabs garbage it's worse than ever, and anyone who says 4 tabs is playable has eitehr lost their mind or is so deep into denial they're not worth talking to. Drop rates are not great, but Perandus has been super good for self found players, which I'm against, because I think playing self found in PoE is ridiculous, any self proclaimed self found players should instantly be disclaimed on their opinions instantly, pandering to self found i sgoing to ruin the very careful balance right now between the casual grinder and the poopsocking turbouser, only widening the gap. Party play is fucking awful, most high clear speed builds can't be played in parties regardless, and each player add 50% IIR, effectively taking a quarter of your solo IIR for each player. The exception to this is Supports, which is relatively new in how common it is now, there's always been quad cursing aura bots, but it's always been hilariously expensive, but the new uniques and eased drop rates help that a lot. This is coming from a closed beta player iwth >1000 hours. I've got 14 normal tabs and 6 premiums and I still run into stash issues, I literally can't imagine how anyone could argue 4 tabs is ok.

The developer didn't sit down, have a meeting and think "how many stash tabs do you think they'll need, for everything?" "hmm, 4's probably enough right?". The point was to make the game 100% free for long enough that you want to pay, thats the trick, the trick is making you love the game, and to be honest if thats the only trick like whatever, i'll pay for the fuckin tabs.

This is correct but personally I dont have a problem with it, and in the end if i had to choose whether I get charged at the start or 100 hours in after I had decided to invest more then i'll choose the latter option.

Anon I am going to be honest with you.

I don't mind a game putting me in a position to make me inclined to pay real money after the 50 hour mark. Right now I'm 110 hours into PoE where I feel buying more stashes is what I need to do what I want to do. I've gotten a ton of free fun at this point and if stashes are this game's Achilles Heel, it doesn't seem unfair.
>>
>>331395005
I think it's aged due to the game's own limitations. That being said, there will never ever ever be another game like it so who cares.
>>
>>331396202

I think this is the exact feeling GGG is going for, and im okay with that.

Perspective of someone who has put at least 1500 hours into the game, and had mutliple level 85+ hard core characters in every league since nemesis.

>>331395582
Stardock's Elemental and (imho) Fallen Enchantress were inspired by Master of Magic but feel very short. I used to like Stardock but they're having a really hard time making games that are more interesting than the average Excel spreadsheet. They had interesting ideas like unit customization, etc. but were just plain bad. I was actually surprised that Fallen Enchantress wasn't at least a bit better since they brought on Kael who made what is probably the best mod of all time - Fall From Heaven 2 for Civ IV: Beyond the Sword. I haven't heard anything good about Sorcerer King and really don't think I'll bother trying it.

Worlds of Magic is more of a direct remake of Master of Magic, but it's just plain bad. Its UI is so clunky that it's just too painful to play. Its ideas for the magic system look like they could be interesting if the spells were more numerous or imaginative, but no other element was nearly as interesting or compelling as MoM.

No. It wasn't.
Anon, you see, making a different game within the same universe, doesn't make it comparable to another game from the same universe.
The remake was a complete mess, unplayable, horrible, book-butchering bullshit. The 1st Dune wasn't trying to be true to the story, it tried its hand at a sort of role playing, yet strategy resource gathering type game.
You really shouldn't share the opinion that the 2000 game was good anymore, people will think you have no idea what you're talking about.

Well for me it's the other way around. PoE has sluggish and boring combat and GD is way more dynamic. Also class building is really fun and grants you a lot of variety despite not too many active skills. Also you don't have to sell/buy form other players to have good gear. Though that can also be a downside.
>>

I would love playing PoE for thousands hours but I found the gameplay so boring that I've quit after 8 hours or so to go back to Grim Dawn. Reminder the game will have mod support and will continue to get t new contents.

Nah senpai. I played Doom and Quake back-to-back a month ago and Quake is shit. Doom actually looks better if you use a resolution patch. Quake has: boring guns, awful and linear level design, everything is either dull brown or dull metallic blue and enemies aren't very interesting to engage.

Doom has more interesting guns, far superior level design, is very colorful and fun to look at without sacrificing the grim tone of the games and the enemies are very different and there are interesting ways to engage them, especially when different types are paired with each other. And monster in-fighting.

Quake is an overrated game. The only reason it was huge at the time was because it was full 3D. It really is garbage compared to fucking Doom.
