Been a while since I put out a indie game dev update so here is where I've gotten to so far in Unreal Engine! The hex grid now spawns buffered so performance is good. The walls are temp but show kinda how the system will create a forest labyrinth that the player can see through!

I am so hyped to play through Stellar Blade and when I booted it up I was super surprised to see the extent of the accessibility options! This is what all triple A games need to have now adays! Onwards we go!

This build was living in my head while we went to variety land for a bit so gonna log back into PoE and finish it up before diving back into variety!

Is Titan Quest 2 worth playing for an aRPG enjoyer?
YouTube video by DireGray Is Titan Quest 2 worth playing for an aRPG enjoyer?

New video! Talking about my feelings and hesitations regarding Titan Quest 2 from a devoted aRPG players perspective TLDW it feels generic. More details in the video!

So far I like the bones and the overall feel of Titan Quest 2 but I am a bit hesitant on the customization till we see more about the mastery (the top node not being there is odd) and equipment systems past what the demo shows.

So Titan Quest 2 just dropped into EA from out of nowhere and thus we must spool it up to see if it's any good! Gonna dive in and feel it out on stream today!

Got a key for Hell Clock and played it today on stream! The game is pretty fun, snappy controls, and good visuals (though really blinky...) BUT man I can't state enough how tired I am of meta progression in so many games... Everything has meta progression now... Argh!

Been blasting Torchlight for the week and finally getting somewhere with this setup I was trying to get into. Having to build this thing blind since no one else is going the same route is really fun! Tripled the DPS last night though so on the right track!

It may look like an odd setup but HOT DAMN does it feel good to play! We back to that old school Discharge feeling but just yelling at corpses!

Making a decent axe got a lot easier when chat reminded me of The Jester! Smashed some basic merc axes with 28% Flaring Reaver axes and bam axe done!

While scratching my head last stream trying to think of what to build next this bleed eHP fluffer idea came into life and now we gotta see what it feels like to play! The numbers mason what do they mean?!

Second build in a row where the interaction is really cool, the playstyle is super fun but the numbers just don't support playing it. Arma Brand of Recall could literally be 10x the damage to make it viable to use... Oh well we go to the thinking board!

Sometimes there are ideas for builds that just seem to be working out really well and then hit a brick wall. This was one of those times! Really fun setup but not in a recommendable state. So we move onwards to other things!

The upstairs bedroom is filled with bees! So I gotta stay downstairs and play more Path of Exile. Darn shame that. But also BEES! Playing some Worb Totem thingy lets smash along!

Move over Sublime Visions: Taken as Fire Damage done far more affordably!

Though I have no net I do have a video on the Take Everything as Fire setup that doesn't need Sublime Visions! Very happy with this setup!

So yeah I have no upload at all. A nice 0.30 Mb/s up. Gotta wait it out and see if it comes back before I can turn the stream on again.

Take Everything as Fire has now become a Storm Burst build! Damage is finally ramping and we are facetanking everything to see what CAN kill us! Good stuff so far onwards!

Every since I made the original Sublime Visions Purity of Fire guide I have never again been able to afford that jewel so now with Bound by Destiny providing the last 10% I gonna try to remake that build but without Sublime Visions! - 1 Mirror in cost would a nice upgrade!

Made a build that uses a Bound By Destiny needing 2 Crusader and 6 Elder along side 2 Synth pieces. My gear has never looked this graphical nor has it been as much of a pain in the arse to craft! Oh well Int Stacking Jugg is doing content so stream on!

Fuck me I have corrupted a lot of these things... failed 24 times so far and another batch of 8 is leveling. I think this is the worst Vaaling RNG I've had ever. Just need a 21/20 and a merc and the build is done!

Having a blast playing Blast Rain of Tarter Sauce BUT I do wish GGG did a once over on scaling non-ailment damage over time. With the investment into the build so far you could DOUBLE the damage and still not compete with Ignite or Poison in the current game.
