I'm now Lv.58, and after dabbling in endgame for a while, I think that both dungeon bosses and other bosses you fight in sidequests are just too weak. Some of them do decent damage, but they have way too little health and defence to stand against your ever more powerful char. They were way more fun to fight when I was Lv.15-30 then now. As soon as you apply vulnerable status to them, they go down as a sack of potatoes. Granted, vulnerable status feels pretty OP and could use a slight nerf, IMO.

Real Diablo 3 is Divine Divinity.
try Grim Dawn, PoE or Titan Quest
All of these are worse than D4.
how is D4 better than Grim Dawn?
D4 has a beautiful art style (good-looking isometric-view graphics are a rare thing to behold, these days), solid gameplay mechanics, and a lot of enemy variety right off the bat. I'm in the middle of Act V of the main campaign (level 45), and I find that I must tear myself from the game because it's addictive.

The one time I tried Grim Dawn, I found it to be a murky, plodding slog. It's also quite ugly/off-putting visually, just like all Diablo clones (and D3), and I had to force myself to keep playing it and maybe get to the part where it gets good.

Ya know what Skin? You're an alright dude. Fuck these mouth breathers. Let them peddle their poor man's Diablo knockoffs. We got the real thing baby.

There is only one Diablo. I pay no attention to any of it's many imposters.

Holy shit! The prophecy is coming true!

For real though they have to stop making cosmetics for the fucking Druid. There's a new one in the shop. NO ARMOR CAN MAKE THAT CHARACTER LOOK GOOD. He looks like Brendan Fraser in The Whale.

Fucking add a cool cosmetic for the Rogue already you clowns. Stop wasting time and resources on the character who's special power is congestive heart failure.

Western developers ultra-focused on making characters 'realistic' and 'representative'

CAPCOM:

Pretty bad example because Manon looks like a tranny and is absolutely ugly as fuck. SF6 has a lot of design-by-committee characters like that godawful Guy ripoff, except qute black ninja gurl from da hood wif a walkman spray canz n shieeeet. She even got da nice treadz yo.

Capcom is not as thoroughly pozzed as most Western studios yet, but it's getting there pretty quickly.

Started messing around in pvp and have been owning. It was totally unintentional, wasn't trying to pvp but after I massacred that fatass druid within seconds after he tried to surprise attack me it was on. I became bloodthirsty and went on a rampage. I am undefeated.



1st fight against fat druid:



2nd fight:



3rd fight against the strongest opponent, but he turned into a coward and ran:



I AM A FUCKING GOD!

I officially passed the $100 mark in purchased shop items. I didn't feel bad about it until I realized the chest piece from the new set I bought didn't mix as well as I'd hoped with the other cosmetics I've been using. It's a bummer. I kind of want to die. But on the bright side I still have 1800 platimum points to spend. Don't drink and play games like this. My advice to everybody.

if you "kind of want to die" over 25$ you shouldn't be allowed to spend money at all. ask someone more responsible to do it for you, like your mother. or your bull.

I'll feel better tomorrow. Gotta focus on positives:

I now officially own everything I wanted in the store.

I reached lvl 61.

I started an ear collection and beat up classes supposedly superior to my own.

I completed my first nightmare dungeon.

I have higher lvl friends in game who can help me out if I need it.

I can always shit on Final Fantasy fans to cheer myself up.

Season 1 starts soon so I can finally try a new character.

Bright days ahead.

He is still OK. The real problem starts when he exits his basement and stats stealing money from his mother's wallet.

You are a perfect example of why this hobby is dead. They lured you in with nostalgia and FOMO, waited for you to get drunk, and then set the hook. There are guys like you spending thousands of dollars on these 'cosmetics', and it only takes a few of you to wreck the entire hobby for the rest of us. I'm not blaming you, because I know you can't help it. I just think it's really sad for all involved.

One major thing that ruins it for me are those flying numbers/status effects. Is there a way to switch tem off in the options?
Yes, you can turn them off in gameplay options. Also, you can set enemy outlines to black, which makes them virtually invisible, which is way better than having them lit up in red.
