Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't?

D2R even dropped LAN play and backwards compatibility with classic D2. Those had both been promised during development.
And I would also like to play D4. The atmosphere in the beginning is great, really felt like Diablo 1. But apparently the rest of the game is more like D3 again so I’m not that salty that I can’t play.
There are a lot of games I simply don’t have the brainpower or energy for because of !myalgicencephalomyelitis@lemmy.blahaj.zone. I have started Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Mass Effect. But they’re too wordy for me. And I can’t bring myself to play them in a way where I don’t fully exhaust every conversation.
I hope I will be able to stomach the Gothic Remake. The original is one of my favourite games ever.

Have you been playing PoE/PoE 2?

Yeah, I don’t know exactly what it is but I always feel like I don’t have enough overview in those. Like I can’t really make out the enemies. Apart from that I don’t really like the gem system. I think PoE 2 had something new but PoE2 is too hard on my brain unfortunately.
D2 exactly hits that sweet spot of simplicity and new mechanics for me. Although nothing beats the atmosphere of D1.

It’s a true successor of d2, in fact a lot of the main devs that left during d3 development due to hating what d3 was becoming made poe1, a lot of them are still around and continuing that with poe2. I highly recommend giving it a chance, poe2 simplifies a lot that poe1 made complicated
