If we’re talking them putting enough additional dev time into GD to justify paid DLC, I wouldn’t mind more story content (for example more quests in early Act 4 / mid Act 7 or a new area), but a tenth mastery is just an insane request at this point. It would be 9 more mastery combinations and who knows how many more gear updates to balance around. I’d rather them spend that time on a new game or for GD: new story content, new features, or bringing some under-supported skills or under-performing sets/devotions up to par (TBH, they’re still doing that now :slight_smile:

A post was merged into an existing topic: El-critico’s Whine Corner

Any chance that Soulthief finally gets an Empowered/Mythical version? I actually like the weapon and it would fill the void left by the lack of elemental damage 1 handers.

I’m looking forward for the next update. Honestly I find it quite insane that this game keeps changing and is still receiving free content updates almost 4 years after its release. Kudos to everyone at Crate. <3

This is awesome. I made a post about wanting repeatable shrines some time ago but this is even better. Monster Totems also indirectly buff Nemesis and MI hunting. Love it.
No regrets about purchasing the loyalist packs. :smiley:

Yes, agree. And I voted for them

monster totems must have a unique drop loot as it now would seem to act like a memesis boss chest right?

Funnily enough, here is a(nother ?) wiki page which shows decade starts in the year x1:

Extract:
An ordinal decade in the Anno Domini[a] year numbering system is a period from a year which ends on the digit 1 to the following year which is a multiple of ten; for example, the period from 1961 to 1970 was the 7th decade of the 20th century (or the 197th decade), and the period from 2001 to 2010 was the 1st decade of the 21st century (or the 201st decade)

Bonus extract:

  • The frequently used method to refer to decades is to group years based on their shared tens digit, such as the nineteen-sixties ( 1960s ) referring to the period from 1960 to 1969

While perhaps for the first 300 years of the Gregorian calendar decades would have started on a 1, for the last few decades, or even the last century, really, decades have colloquially started on a 0.

Do you think bonus damage to Chthonics will ever be added to the Occultist mastery, instead of the highly requested chaos RR? I hope so, since I would finally be able to make a Crane Occultist:

You should have read the whole page you linked. ^^

Basically, there is a difference between a decade and the xth decade (and the same applies to centuries, milleniums, etc).
A decade is any period of 10 years, with whatever starting point you want. You can say “I’ve been working on this for a decade” without needing to have started on a year ending with 1.
The xth decade is the xth decade from the starting point of the calendar which is the year one. So the first decade is 1-10, the second is 11-20, etc.
The 90s is used as a short way to say “the decade of the years starting with 199x” so mean 1990-1999. It’s ten years so it’s a decade. But it’s not the 200th decade (1991-2000).

Indeed. It would be pretty stupid if we applied that thinking on it. Take the end of the last century in the year 1999. Noone was sitting around waiting to celebrate the year 2001 as the start of a new century. Every last person was counting down to greet the change-over to 2000.

A decade is, and always has been for anyone alive today, when spoken of as “the 70’s”, 80’s or the 90’s etc… it is meant to refer to the years 70 thru 79 with dinging over into 80 puts us firmly in the 80’s, and so on. This is common knowledge.

Maybe there are places that exist that do it how he’s talking… not where I’m from tho.

But we’re getting way off-topic here I guess :wink:

But the end of the 20th century was in 2000 and the start of the 21st was in 2001.
People celebrating the end of the century one year too early is an issue with education.
:confused:

A century can start whenever you want. There is no point to celebrate every year the start of a new century.
You only celebrate the new century, the 21st, on the transition from 2000 to 2001.
:wink:

lmao poor human beanz of Earth… almost every last one of us, misedumicated.

Last I checked, 30 isn’t part of the 20s, which is common sense for virtually every human on earth.

Now let’s keep this thread on topic. If you want to debate whether most of the human population is wrong, please take it to off-topic.

I have to say it is amazing how you folks at Crate keep supporting this game. I wish other developers learned a lesson from you.

That said, I have a small request to add here that I would love to see in one of these small updates. One of the features I liked in TQ that I wish GD had is the different shade of green used for MIs insteead of Rares. The olive green made it easy to see when you acquired one instead of having to read each item.

Would be a small QoL improvement I’d love to see.

I hope that since forgotten gods has done pretty well, you guys consider doing more paid expansions. We will obviously support you guys! You guys are probably the only company i would consider backing on kickstarter again if you needed it or just wanted it for security to do a grim dawn 3 or even another expansion. Whatever comes next for GD and your studio just know you’ve been good to us , so most of us will support you!
