Vicarious Visions is pretty much the indian telemarketing company of the video games industry, so anyone expecting a proper end game like the maps on PoE or the Shards on Grim Dawn are just crazy, if it is to do Bhaal runs, you can do it now.

Grim Dawn is pretty much the real Diablo III.

lol. More like Titan quest in grim dark setting. After all patches it still plays worse than D2 without any mods.

POE up to 2.0 was effectively real D3 then it went into zoom zoom territory fucking up gameplay.

It will be 1:1 diablo 2. There will be no map system or any additions. This is just D2 with better graphics and good framerate even bugs will be the same as this is literally D2 running in background.

It needs some kind of scaling endgame challenges like Shards or the Crucible in GD because I just don't see the point of grinding for more gear in order for the game to become easier and easier.

yeah especially since it uses actually D2 under new graphics. So some small mods can outright work day 1 while big overhauls like Path of Diablo or Median will need a lot of rework done. Moreover developers claim that shitload of hardcoded previously stuff will be now in data files available to modding.

Path of Diablo is basically D2 with map system. Played it 2 months ago with friend and it was pretty good.

They're a slight step above that. Look at Destiny, that game went to absolute shit content-wise when Bungie went independent, thereby losing access to VV and High Moon. Pretty much every release of theirs since then has been stuff intended for Destiny 3 retrofitted into $40 expansion packs with another two on the way.

Based on what I've seen out of Bungie over the years, I have the suspicion their "support studios" are far more competent than anyone really expects.

I REALLY hope that remaster D2 can have shit like path of diablo has, otherwise i will be sad.

Endgame content + good qol changes is waht vanilla needs to survive.

Anyone else reminded of Pillars of Eternity when looking at the new graphics or is that just me?

Wait... am I getting this right? People don't like it because a few of the models in the character selection screen don't look attractive?
I don't like censoring past projects for modern soy sensibilities.

Making a less appealing face for a single model on a single screen is... censoring?
So far from the short gameplay video alone they have censored the assassin ass, Andariels ass, and corrupted rogues ass. Where will it end? Clearly somebody at Blizzard hates ass.
