They were hinting at it with VH2's lvl 1-60 or 31-60 progression. The system was meant to scale up over the course of the trilogy. The natural conclusion would have featured a 61-90 progression with new tiers of items.

Instead, we got a smattering of lvl 1-30 items for the new classes and nothing for lvl 60 characters to play with. I'm not saying it's the worst game in the world, or that it's not worth the $14.99, but it's a cash-in. They released what they could in the hopes that it would pay the bills until they could release what they wanted to, all along; a fully fleshed out, 6-class ARPG with lvl 1-100 progression and proper itemization.

I'm excited for the FC.

Ye, I got it cause I owned all 3 before.
Probably will get to it tonight if I got the time.
Should be fucking massive now cause they put all 3 games into 1.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
I just bought this on GOG. I had the Steam version when it was released, but I got fed up with the style of gameplay. Anyone tell me how the levelling works? I wasn't paying attention and downloaded the 1st game as the 'complete pack' but now I realise I've got the 'Final Cut'.

So how do they handle XP over the three games? Are you capped in the first and second one, as there was something about a level 100 cap?. Thanks.

I miss manuals.

Apparently it's better to buy the games individually than getting the Final Cut, as the third game significantly dumbs down the classes etc. and is retroactively imposed on the previous games.

So you buy the first game and the DLCs, and the second game and skip the DLCs.

Currently 90% off; very much worth it.
