is it really that bad?
What do you mean by “bad?”
Prolly all that you said, as it sounds bad.
co-op content being -that- easy.
I mean what classes did they do this with, all of them?
Looks like he doing spiritborn and mekuna is LS sorc. It looks easy but its tough to say. They are good players and they split up a lot. Things always look easier than they are. Im only seeing half of what is going on and only half paying attention. All I can really say is that its the most mechanical thing they have put in since Lilith and its probably going to be more difficult for a normal player, especially a pug group.
In regards to what Mekuna and Rob are doing first take into account they have both maxed Paragon and glyphs. and that alone will take on average 100 hours of play or so rob has said in the past now i will assume that is a full group as well lvling.
Of course. As I said above, things always look easier than they are. I’ve also always said that in the beginning it might take long but as people get better at mechanics and better on their builds, this will get easier and faster to do. Its not going to always take hours. For bad players in pugs maybe. I would not want to do this on a HC character though.
My appologies only seen the last post as i have gotten tired of the ongoing debate of what is a raid lol
Me too lol. Also a thing of note is that if they ever did want to make this soloable, they would have to remove a lot of mechanics to do so.
In regards to HC players i will admit it was the most fun i ever had trying to push as much as i could without dying
Which is not really relevant.
Can you access all content in the game without grouping up?
No.
Can you access all content without PvPing?
Yes.
Also of note, all the gear he got was legendary gear. No ancestrals until he opened the weekly cache. That was doing it on Torment 4.
it actually is not as hard but yes remove the group Mechanics for solo version leave them for the group let people only enter 1 or the other every week now that would be interesting let people experience both if they choose. Of course less rewards for solo version.
you mean you made this thread about a “group/raid based game” which was kept alive talking about it, yet you grew tired of it?
was it the lack of flames?
Naw it no longer was about the direction they were going which is what the post was about but what people consider a group or raid is not the same. My original post stated Group/raid so the debate would not take place i had both covered.
do you still feel the same way you do as in your original post?
Yes i have been gaming over 40 years been down the group / raid route many time i bought Diablo so i could play when i wanted see all content and group or help people at my choice and time. I have said many times they stated the Direction they are taking it and it is not for me i wish everyone well on the Journey ahead. I bought VOH to try out the Spiritborn and hoped they would make a solo version DC.
The direction of the game is simple.
Have something that interests everyone. And keep the player base in game as long as possible, looking at load screens as often as possible.
The direction is all.
And cash in.
is it safe to assume you’ll be partaking in this not-raid content?
I am retired lol i bought it will play it and as i said in my original post i will not be putting any more money towards the game from this point on. I am sure once the season is over as they will try to push content as fast as they can to attract the new base they want that i will once again find a game aligned to what i am looking for. Ohh and by the way people 1-2 or 3 hours for instance lol is nothing doing a 40 man Molten Core raid took a hell of alot longer. And the Point of me thanking them is that i now know to start looking at other games knowing this is headed down that path.
