...I'm not that interested in mmo or multiplayer gaming as a matter of fact...
And I dislike internet only playing, as my connection is rather shitty.

Grim Dawn is probably going to be your best bet, then. Of course, it won't be coming out for another eighteen months at least.

Still pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-pre-Alpha? Weren't they planning on releasing it this year? Jeez.

Anyway, it looks nice. Biggest problems I had with TQ were the 'floaty' nature of the combat, generic feel of the setting and world design, and needlessly elaborate talent system. That said even if they improve on all of that I'm burnt out enough on these hack-n-slashes to wait for 75% off.

I never played TQ...from the demos the combat looks pretty nice in Grim Dawn. I quit D3 after getting to Jewferno difficulty so it'll be a pretty long wait before this comes out. Can't wait...so much :incline: incoming.

Sure looks grim.

Perhaps I should check on Paths of Exile. Maybe they've fixed minions being shitty and in the way all the time.

When was the last time you played? They made minions untargetable and and nerfed Piety's lightning ball damage, but that was already few months ago.

I should be excided for this but 400 combined hours of D3 and PoE left my dry and empty inside.

Now I kinda regret not backing it in the first place.

I thought Torchlight 2 would be good enough, but the search continues for a loot RPG to grab me like D2 did.

What does "looking dope" mean? Is it good or bad?
Personally I think the screenshots look good. No retarded Bloom to ruin it is always a plus these days.

Nice to see an RPG with a UI that looks like a goddamn solid hunk of rusty-ass, ornate metal. Tired of all these curly, wavy, ethereal, context-sensitive UIs these days.

Good armor, enemy and outworld design. They are not even in alpha stages still though... I guess we won't be seeing this game untill 2014

The UI overall is indeed rather groovy, maybe the font could use a little work though.

looking great, but the fact that this has been in development forever and a day is pretty frustrating. hope it actually comes out sometime.

After the disappointment of Diablo 3, this is the H&S I'm waiting for.

Path of Exile is ok, but somehow it doesn't cut it for me.

Too bad the multiplayer portion will be overrun by bots and hackers in less than a month like all ARPGs. I don't really see the point of playing them alone for longer than 1 playthrough UNLESS theres some kind of super hard endgame content in them.

Path of Exile was OK but now its completely ran over by bots, zoomhacks and multiboxers destroying the economy. Also the armor models are ugly as fuck for a 2013 game.
