And you know… It was their first game like this and they had never done anything like a 10 act story. They already stated their future plans. Back then it was up in the air.
This would be like saying it took engineers 10+ years to make the first useful car. Surely the next upgrade wont be for a while.
Also chris wilson isnt on the poe2 team. He’s barely on the poe1 team.
Indeed. And its half a game, without classes, without systems and act 4-6 as well as all the skills and abilities associated with that stuff.
Another 6 months of balance and polish on it plus all the above mentioned content, it’s gonna have something for everyone that is even slightly a fan of arpg’s I’d hope.
It will be glorious.
Base launcher is already up.
Steam is waiting.
So many instances of…
“…no…nooo… NOOO”
Then it works
Tunic!
The “final” puzzle took a whole page of paper. It was brilliant
Missed opportunity to call it shi®tposting. There truly is no ethical sucky puns under capitalism.
Oh! My bad. EqualizerAPO / SourceForge is what i used briefly. I tried a few others but their names escape me.
Was nice being able to control everything more fluidly and import presets from various audiophile testing websites to figure out what sounded best to “me”.
Years of listening to Metal at ‘way too loud’ on the dial has made my ears uh ‘unique’. So i cant just drop in stuff and it sound immediately perfect. Gotta tweak it a smidge.
Regarding the third party software on linux, I’m unsure. When im using my linux boot i just use the equalizer built into the dac itself and mimic what i figured out using third party on windows.
I imagine there’s third party that would interface with it since its just like any other audio software. Something like PulseAudio that sits on top of ALSA. That said id recommend doing your own research as always with your flavor of linux/setup.
They didn’t work out of the box instantly, the sound was pretty “crunchy”.
But, all i had to do was update firmware and set the bandwidth to the fanciest it would go then use third party equalizer to balance it out. (You CAN use the propietary one, but it didn’t seem to really offer me anything third party didn’t. Third party changes the driver too so you don’t have to have a dumb program sitting open in the background like the proprietary requires)
If i was going to spend this money again I’d of bought the Maxwell from Audeze instead. My head is fat and the nova pro barely fits at max space.
Also, get cloth earcups to replace the full rubber grippy ones. Way less sweaty and the sound is more " open" imo. Although audiophiles would be correct that it’s less sealed so therefore less noise canceling and immersive.
Edit: Sidenote. All headsets should have a removable battery as easy as this. Its easily the best feature on this headset.
Totally agree. Im only about 2k~ hrs in since the einhar league. Probably about $100-$200 as well.
There’s simply no way im not getting my moneys worth from poe2 as well. Even if i only play it for like 40hrs thats more than enough for $30
I still play diablo 3 sometimes. Or hell even d2. I played d4 after a bit when it was clear it wasnt a complete craphsoot. Probably have a couple hundred hours in it. Was a fun game, but it cant hold a candle to my nostalgia-glasses sadly so I’ve “beat” it.
I dont see myself ever going back to it unless they add enough content that can justify another purchase. The new expac aint it for me.
Poe is f2p and if i dont play it for a year, theres 3~ new patches/expacs/seasons worth of content.
Ill gladly spend another $10-20+ on it for another hundred or two hours no question. At no point do i feel like i NEED to spend money though and thats the point.
Id rather buy 5 indie games than a d4 expac kinda thing.
Indeed.
That said, if you spent a certain amount of money in PoE1 over its entire lifetime, you dont have to pay which is nice.
Specially since both are f2p as well. So everyone can be included if you dont want to spend a dime.
The more hilarious part to me is having pay2beta in a fully priced game.
What was it, $100 for d4? Gotta buy the base game + beta access when it came out?
Old oneplus gang! Dozens of us!
Absolutely. 2020 made me wildly apathetic towards humanity. I’ve decided to move onto optimistic nihilism instead lol.
I’ll play the shit out of a violin while the titanic sinks just for the laughs.
Up to their sole discretion they decide to give you between $0.01-$100, via paypal only if you allow them to collect your info and pass that info to “necessary parties”.
This is well and fine for anyone who doesnt really care about that and im sure they have better interests in line with you moreso than other companies, but figured I’d post their Terms and Conditions for those that it might affect.
I dont use paypal as its literally one of the worst ways to manage money in the US. So I’m not doing this unfortunately even though i AM voting and didn’t vote in 2020.
I audibly laughed.
Yep same sentiment. My friend group of 4 isnt playing it. Either playing throne and liberty (f2p until bored) or last epoch/PoE. Im catching up on some single player games.
Unfortunately no (unless thats a new unannounced feature in this installment) They help/follow you around during missions like a buddy/partner. That said, they have different armors and their own “character creator” so you can customize and dress up your own lil guy.
Reminds me of a mix between diablo (the old one lol) and vampire slayer. Been playing it since it was only a couple maps and it’s definitely worth it if you like vampire survivor-esqe games.
That probably IS the “secret” software. Lol Plug a phone into your car? Insurance company gets the info one way or another.
