chronicon, the true diablo 2 successor

[Mastermind]

Is it shit?

No.

 

[covr]

I just saw the endgame trailer and it has nothing in common with D2. It's just some animu fireworks

 

[deama]

It was decent when I played the early access about 1-2 years ago, I wish they had more a PoE skill tree though, but without the fat, did they add something like that since I last played?

No and God willing it never will.

It does have a passive mastery system that is independent of the skill trees but there's no giant pointless spider web of passives.

I never said it should be a direct copy of poe skill tree, just have the more interesting ones like the one that converts 50% of phys damage to fire damage, or convert all hp to shield, or life leech applies to mana, or use hp to cast spells etc...
in addition to some straight up bonuses, but just some.

yes, it does have those type of skills

As a PoE player - can confirm. Game balance and economy is dictated by streamers (who play the game all days with other no-lifes with good game knowledge so they gather insane buck in short time) which make the game more obnoxious for new folks and those who already spend part of their lives on that game.

I don't care how good that game is, I will never play it again, fucking EVER
My 3 adventures with Path all ended with me nolifing the fucking thing for 2 weeks each time and then feeling dead inside by the end of it.
No mas you filthy New Zealand Jews.

 

[Humanity has risen!]

Will play it when they make a Switch port.

Officially out of early access as of today

[Turisas]

Was the 'endless' endgame a recent addition or can anyone vouch for it if it was in the earlier builds already?

Do you mean the anomalies? They've been in for a very long time, although dev changed the way they work at least once.

 

[Turisas]

Yeah, just wondering if they're enjoyable enough to do or if it's effectively game over once you're done with the acts.

Has cooldown
Spell determined bu size and sharpness of your weapon

Is another generic D3 clone.

Damage is determined by your Damage stat and all the classes have their own weapons, there's no wizards with swords.

get the fuck out of my thread idiot.

 

[Ranselknulf]

Tagging thread so I remember this.

 

[agris]

"true diablo 2 successor" >> "shit-tier rpg-maker weeb art" >>

 

[deama]

I played chronicon like 2 years ago, how much has it changed since then? Any interesting additions?

 

[ADL]

This is discounted at the moment. Worth it?

[I'm Big Into Anal]

bought this today and am enjoying it

really scratching that loot and stat-whore itch

3 hours in so far; still doing the first quest lmao i really shouldnt smoke weed before i play games like this

im staring at inventory and trading screens like a zombie

 

[Luka-boy]

I purchased this for cheap a few weeks ago after the developer said they won't develop any more content for it.

It's surprisingly cathartic. Gave me more than fifty hours of fun before I felt I was done.

 

[Kabas]

Took me a few tries to get into this game and the game finally clicked with me. It really does start kinda slow before you get at least your basic synergy up and running.
My berserker skylord is currently in the middle of committing an elven genocide. They think they can outrun my lightning fists, silly elves.

 

[lukaszek]

this mechanist class, does it allow me to wield revolver + dagger, or some similar playstyle?

 

[Kabas]

Didn't try it yet, i know that she wields an axe and a gun judging by the loot.

 

[luj1]

this shit is overwhelmingly positive on steam and gives me ToME vibes
