Crate Entertainment Talks About Grim Dawn 2 Plans

Good one, about the toilet paper.

А я думаю, после выхода D4, разработчики посмотрели, и решили что можно заняться игрой, т.к, слишком много людей оказались не довольны тем что представила метелица…

some GD2 (non) info from the discord:

Same, sadly…

They should’ve made a pool:

1- Do you guys (the ones that gives money to say thank you for great games) want Grim Dawn 2

2- Or an RTS that the DEVs wants, Like Farthest Frontier that only has a 1000 players?

ye, what a shame, farthest frontier only sold what, over a million copies? real darn pity the devs bothered with that
heck, since they are clearly not passionate about what they do, just chasing flops with low active player count, there’s absolutely no way anything good can come from an RTS either that they have interest to make - because devs enjoying their work clearly never lead to anything worthwhile
:crazy_face:

In my opinion there is only one thing that they can or should do better if they make GD2, and that is if they make GD2 with online servers!, As for the rest i dont care much :stuck_out_tongue: I love grim dawn for what it is, i wouldnt mind just a few more xpansions, i dont need new graphics or new whatever, just keep adding to this game. but thats just my opinion! if they do make gw2 im gona buy for sure anyways :slight_smile:

At least you state the truth.

I’ll just quote Medierra from a now deleted forum thread:

"A big factor for working on something else though is that I don’t think it is good to keep all our eggs in one basket, as a studio. Our primary goal is to keep the company alive so we can keep being independent and making games. While it’s certainly possible to focus on one franchise and stay alive for a long time doing it, it’s riskier having all your future dependent on the continued success of one game property in one genre. Diversifying the types of games we can make and the IPs we own is a good way for us to better secure out future.

Beyond just branching out to work on other genres, it has always been a goal of mine to be able to work on concurrent projects. Not only do we not want to be pigeon-holed into one genre but I think it’s important for us to be able to work on multiple projects at time. That way, we’re not just counting on the success of a single big release to keep us alive, where if it under-performs, it could take years to course-correct and finish another project (years we likely wouldn’t have). This also helps to increase the efficiency of the studio, as we can shift people around based on the needs of a project at any give time, instead of having lulls at the beginning and end of a single project, where not everyone is needed at full capacity. Another factor is that people get burnt out working on one thing for too many years. When people get burnt out, they leave and look for something new. I feel like we have a great team and I want to keep them engaged with fresh new projects and not solely grinding away on ARPGs for the next 20 years."

Farthest is well on the way to 2 mil copies sold and it’s still in early access. No idea where we are with the horror survival game as we know very little about that so far. As gnomish said the RTS game will use Crate’s new generation game engine so that’ll take some time to develop. Any GD2 is around a decade away so don’t hold your breath for news/info on that.

You don’t own us because you bought a copy of our game, haha. :laughing:

By every metric, Frontier is already a greater success than Grim Dawn was, so I’m not sure the money argument is what you want to go with.

Then there are players like me. If GD2 relies on network connection, I won’t touch it.

dont get me rong i hope grim dawn 2 doesnt need an internet conection to play, but would be nice to have a proper online with server and cheat checking :stuck_out_tongue:

And then piss off all the people who enjoy making and playing mods for the game. :crazy_face:

i prefer a game like GD with no bullshit but those are not mutually exclusive. but was D2 the only one that ever was this way?

crate is still considered indie right? maybe we should get them a publisher so they can’t do what they want xDD

They are independent and not interested in having investors/publishers.

I belive you could have both modable single player or even online pier to pier like we now have in GD, but still have online server for a more " competitive / cheat free "game. I say this because alot of my m8s dont buy the game because there is no proper online, and to play pier to pier with friend who live far away is just crap without servers to conect to due to high ping.

I personaly just dont like to join online in grim dawn not just because of high ping /bad fps. but also because alot of player cheat and its hard to tell when some are and some arent. yet grim dawn is such an awsome game to play with friends!

this is actualy something i dont understand,per example,in GD, on character panel, when you inspect someone… doesnt say how many points you have spent in masterys and constelation ? could you flag someone using more then possible :stuck_out_tongue: ?

That would help me enjoy public online play more :slight_smile:

And be reminded that some of the skills not only buff yourself but also your allies. How could you determine they are cheating or not even if you can see their points allocation?

There is a cap of 55 devotions and 248 skill points and 107 atribute points yeh, if i recall well ? but when you inspect someone you cant see how many have they spent, and if you could and you saw they have spent more then the cap, then they are clearly cheating :stuck_out_tongue: , ofc there are prolly 100 other ways to cheat but still dont udnerstand why that aint on the character panel on inspection :slight_smile: , most players who cheat normaly go way above the cap.

they would just need to had info on the panel about points spent and available.

you see yeh what i mean :stuck_out_tongue:

put that info into the character panel :smiley:

i can cheat too you see and i hate it :slight_smile:

sometimes just want a proper online game cheat free :slight_smile: and grim dawn could be more awsome if had a more proper online mode. but then again thats just my opinion. and dont get me rong still is a cool online game if you play with close m8s and good ping :slight_smile:

either way i dont think enough people play much online anyways at least public game,for crate to care about it at this stage. but maybe something they can consider for GD2 some day :slight_smile:
