You're not wrong but it comes from that perception. E;R I would list as another example. His videos are highly edited with FBI crime statistics and the like but tune into one of his live streams and it's like he smoked a joint or something before.
Nice! Intro is peak as always.
Never played PoE, let alone 2, that intro goes hard. Is it worth playing either game?
I have issues with POE2, but if you're an "oldschool" gamer of the RPGCodex variety who misses the day of very slow, very methodical combat without any "unearned" spikes of dopamine delivery, then PoE2 seems to deliver - though this perspective may come from "bad" luck on my part insofar as I have a build good enough that my balls aren't getting severely busted, leaving me bored instead of frustrated enough to keep on struggling. Not my cup of tea at all as an enjoyer of the "zone out and grind, I'd be a slot machine addict if I didn't save myself by playing this shit" school of ARPGs like PoE1/Grim Dawn/Torchlight 2/Last Epoch, but apparently worthwhile to the audience it was tailored for based on other reviews.
He's probably going to make another SSKTJL video now that it's shutting down.
Just like he did with Concord. Blessed be his soul for still using Daw as a recurring mock character ever since.
God I lurk there too often, but it's one of the few places that is actually interesting and shares many of my views on the interwebs other than here.
More the opposite: grinding in PoE2 is still necessary, but you're grinding for much more "basic" stuff: no loot explosions, no speedy gameplay, a more methodical grind that severely punishes players for incautious behavior (or just lack of prescience) - which isn't to say PoE1 isn't full of punishment and RNG too, but PoE1 is fast-paced enough that if you get screwed over by incaution, RNG, or a combination thereof, you're down much less time.
I thought it was alright, shame it got cancelled for low ratings.
Oh! Ok now I think I understand. Still, that $30 price tag for a sequel of a free game is...I mean I'm glad it's not "industry standard" $60 but for an Early Access game...maybe another time.
It tried way too hard to be funny and it was just flat like all the rest of those shows by the same writers. Animaniacs also sucked dick.
Yeah same, I'll just play it when it releases properly and all the beta-tested bugs get ironed out.
I'll forgive your take on Animaniacs because Pinky and the Brain blows it out the water.
Early Access really is just a scummier way to Alpha/Beta test.
