With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?

Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)

the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.

Whats yours?

Which diablo game would you recommend for someone trying to get into it? Sounds up my alley from how you describe it

[–] bhj@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

While not Diablo, Path of Exile, Grim Dawn, and Last Epoch are some others that are basically Diablo in everything but name.

I've played a ton of Path of Exile; it's free to play and has major feature updates every few months. I haven't played Last Epoch but I've heard good things.

The new diablo 4 just released and it's perfectly fine to skip the others and go straight to 4!

You can try Diablo 3 for free and see if that style of gameplay is fun to you.

Diablo 4 is certainly a better game (so far) in my opinion though. Micro txn bullshit aside it's a good balance between mindless demon slaying and some story.

I don't get the mtx hate, it's purely cosmetic, just ignore it?

I wasn't saying I have a problem with it. Others do though.
