Not a dig but it's very clear you like the hardcore games that are more punishing. Most people hate poe for that insane complexity. You hit hard walls unless you farm for years and can trade up 5 bat eyes off Gondor, for the heart of demon Thor. D3 has plenty of build diversity for the casual and it doesn't punish you for not following one of the complex builds in poe.
As soon as I read what the commenter said about PoE I had a mild panic attack. I don’t even know what it is but I know it isn’t for me.
That said, I wish I could find another Cuphead. I have three 300% complete saves on both Switch and PC. I’ve deleted saves and replayed it many times.
That games hits just right for my severe adhd.
Anybody got any recommendations?
Hollow Knight might be your thing with you liking cup head.
I own it but I haven’t played it.
I’m gonna jump in tomorrow.
Thank you. I also love Metroid and SotN so it’s been on my list for awhile.
Oh check out Ori (both) not as hard a cup head but probably my favorite platformer of all time. The first is quite a vibrant and emotional ride.
I’ve played the first one and I’m actually running through it again on the deck. It’s definitely a good one.
I don't disagree with you at all. I bounced off of PoE many times over the years because I just couldn't wrap my brain around the depth of the game. Like I said, I still only play with build guide. I suppose there is build diversity in D3, maybe a better way to describe it is prescribed. I never really felt there was the ability to come up with wacky builds out of the available options. I think Last Epoch strikes the best balance there.
