The PS4 is out and the new UI is very refreshing after seven years of the PS3’s same user interface but the PS4’s UI isn’t perfect either.
Former Naughty Dog artist Gabriel Betancourt explains why the "sweet spot" for game teams is under 200 people and how AAA "factories" kill creativity.
Jay and Silent Bob: Chronic Blunt Punch is a celebration of the View Askewniverse but will this beat ’em up be the perfect hit from the bong?
The second expansion looks to deliver Diablo 4’s most bingeable endgame yet.
Not gonna play this game before they stop selling cosmetics in shop that looks better than drops in-game. Stupid company
Could be worse. Path of Exile has no cosmetic drops in-game but will happily sell them to you for $30 each.
PoE is also free and has actual good updates every 3 months and listen the community. Combined with the fact that PoE actually is for adults instead of the cookie cutter shit you get in D4, build diversity? no ofc not, on the item it literally says for which single skill the item works for and for nothing else so you're pigeonholed into a couple very specific items if you wanna play a certain build which kills all personal builds and everyone is just running with the exact same items, compare that to PoE where there's endless viable builds.
I agree. I want to play, not pay. Should be enough to pay 60-80$ for a game, and 20-40$ for future dlc. No shops to buy cosmetics, loot boxes, pets etc.
PoE being free is not a good thing.
I want to find all content in-game.. would be soooo much more fun finding hard to Get cosmetics/gear and pets or other side things.
Hopefully someone gets it in the future so its possible to enjoy that genre.
@retro millions of people enjoyed diablo 1 and 2 where there were no chase cosmetic items, so there goes your argument. The genre has been enjoyed without that for decades so stop acting like it can't be without your made up barbie dress up game. You rolled with however the best item that you found or traded looked.
That's never going to happen. What really needs to happen and will also never will is the prices for these cosmetics are outrageous just for a dinky little model and needs to come down massively. It's so dumb that they're willing to price the cosmetics so high that basically only a small portion of their player base will ever buy anything when they instead could have nearly their entire player base buying more cosmetics for a more reasonable price.
Whats the point playing these games if its not to chase Getting good looking gear ? That also gives you the feeling of getting stronger and better.
I can buy all these cosmetics.. but whats the fun ln looking like a complete finished character from the start. It so stupid.
Remember how it was to play wow before. Half the fun was to complete challenges and getting the sweet stuff or build it.
Or opening chests in zelda to Get that special gear.
The companys making ARPGs these days Are so greedy and only seek to make mechanics that makes the user splash money on the game like u do in gambling.
Its funny. Watching streams of these games.. oh! That guy has spent atleast 3-400$ on the game with that look! Hes so awesome! Finds new end game gear and You Cant Even see the results in the character… everyone looks like a copy of eachother. Unless you splash money on the game to look unique all the time.
Miss the times before online stores. Loot boxes. Cosmetics shops etc is cancer.
Damn, I lowkey got excited to get back into D4 because I thought the Warlock looks cool, but reading through this comment-chain is giving me second thoughts. Or actually more like reminding me why I stopped playing it back in the first place :(
I think the Warlock will alot of fun, and if not, I will just make another Paladin. ;)
Ignore the cosmetics and just enjoy the game imho.

No it dosent. At that time you chased what was in-game and there wasent any cooler gear in a online shop that you could buy. Everything made by the designers/artists and what the hardware could handle was there to Get for free in the game when you played. And things progress and evolves from there. And the way they do it now, is ruining the experience. The designers/artist can today make awesome stuff and put it in the game.. but instead they put it behind a instant paywall. Takes all the joy we had before, the thought of «im gonna find the best and Coolest gear in this game!» is all gone.
Its just sad to see kids today grow up with this. And adults accept this. And people in the gaming industry being proud of their work ? Oh my….i would be disgusted if i was an designer on those teams.
