New hack and slash dungeon crawler that's a lot like Diablo. It's a lot more true to the Diablo art style than diablo 3 and has a really cool and unique skill system.
THIS (http://gaming.juliobiason.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/screenshot-0011.png)is the chart of skills you can take in the game, one per level (image too big to just post here). Most of them are minor, but it allows for a ton of customization. You can make a Witch that's good with melee weapons, or a marauder that's good with wands if you want. The world is your oyster.

It's going to be free to play when it's released, but right now you can get into the beta for a donation of $10. I bought it and so far I'm liking it a lot but I haven't played very much yet.
Anybody else playing this? Want to do some coop? How do you think this game is going to compare to other upcoming diablo style games like Torchlight 2 and Diablo 2?
It's nice because your potion bottles get filled up from killing enemies.
Kind of weird how it uses a skill system like Final Fantasy 10 though.

The magic system is a lot like Final Fantasy as well. Instead of learning spells with skill points you equip spell items into item slots (basically the same thing as Materia). It works pretty well though I think.
The game also doesn't have a normal currency like Gold, and instead uses utility items as currency, thus making the currency itself valuable (like how metal works in the TF2 economy). This game seems to be combining a lot of great ideas from wildly different genres.

just like thorclock
Typical Thorclock. If it's mainstream, it sucks.
Quit it thor. Quit it.
On a serious note, If it manages to get a decent player base behind it, it might be pretty cool.
Quote from: RibsClock;1905961So are they going to run world servers with ad costs and guild dues (I take it they're just charging to start your own guild or something? That's not a bad idea.) or are they going to have separate servers or what? I only watched some of it I didn't feel like watching the whole bloody half-hour of this to see.
So far the developers have said that they're not going to put anything in the game that effects gameplay, only stuff like asthetic changes, stash tabs and guild charters. Then again, they wouldn't be the first developers to say that and then go back on their word (Guild Wars 2, for example).

I'd probably be playing Diablo 3 instead right now if I could get into the beta, but it's pretty obvious this game looks more like Diablo and Diablo 2 than Diablo 3 does.
Thor doesnt hate things because they're mainstream, he hates things for the sake of being contrary to the opinions of whoever he is talking to. Somewhere on some forum where everybody hates Diablo 3 he's arguing that it is the best in the series and Diablo 2 is now obsolete. He hasnt actually played a video game since 2007, he pays chinese sweatshop children 5 north korean won an hour to use his steam account and rack up achievements.

I disagree. I think it looks incredibly generic. It's like they mixed dungeon siege with Gilligan's island.

And Diablo 3 looks like World of Warcraft mixed with Magika.
Diablo 2 looked dark, morbid and grim. So does PoE, and Diablo 3 does not. What art style is better for this kind of game is a matter of opinion, but I don't see how you can argue that D3 looks more like D2 than PoE. It's just a ridiculous position.
Also only the first half of the first act of Path of Exile is on a beach.
Here's a part from the later half of act 1

This is an old build with a shitty hud but the point is it's not on a beach
