this is the definitive list.

path of exile is most popular but has optional mtx(?)

titan quest and Torchlight are on multiple consoles. titan quest has a sequel in production

grim dawn is by the titan quest team, has a small file size, and runs well on older pcs.

Does Last Epoch belong on this list too?

[–] PlantJam@lemmy.world 16 points 9 months ago

Yes it absolutely does belong! It's officially launching on February 21, but it's currently available in beta/early access.

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I've only heard good things but haven't tried it yet, probably does belong!

[–] glitches_brew@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Ive had a ton of fun playing it!

[–] Thorry84@feddit.nl 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yes! As a die hard Grim Dawn fan I can say Last Epoch is awesome. Grim Dawn is still better imho, but Last Epoch comes close. Both are excellent games one could easily put 100+ hours in and have a blast.

I just wish that I could start at a higher difficulty on Grim Dawn with the appropriate scaling. I don't want to do the campaign 3 times just like old days.

[–] Ketram@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Didn't they just change the game with the last patch (still being updated, my God the devs are GOATed) so they you can play to 100 in any difficulty? I still imagine you get pasted in elite and ultimate if that's your issue though.

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I don't know, haven't played with that feature. The campaign with expansion is long enough that it was a pain to go through it to get to endgame.

It's a good thing that you can skip that.

[–] Ketram@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

Yeah I'm hoping so as well, haven't played since that patch. I got really burnt out spamming the story over and over too.

Path of exile charges for inventory QoL and with the ludicrous amount of different stuff that drops, it’s arguably kind of mandatory if you’re trying to complete seasonal objectives

[–] bisby@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

Its also free to play.

Or as some streamers say: its a $60 game with an incredibly generous free trial.

[–] TheLugal@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

The MTX for PoE are within the "nice" ones. There's extra stash tabs, but you don't need to consider that until after the campaign. And then there's cosmetics. No pay to win. And the MTX are on your account, so they will be on PoE2 as well.

[–] sadbehr@lemmy.nz 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

For PoE you consider 30gb installed (on PS5 mind you) a large file size? Yes it has mtx, but it is not once pushed or advertised to you, and none of it is required for anything. They does improve the QoL of the game however.

CoD + WZ is around 240gb I think. Most modern AAA games are usually 90gb minimum.

[–] toxicbubble@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

true, I thought it was larger for some reason
