Grim Misadventure #183 - Ascension

Looks like I should start to hoard all white double rares now. But what about faction crafted belts with single affix or suffix?

Yes, I know, I wrote “at least one time” because of that :wink:

Didn’t want to touch this topic again, but here goes…

And I’ve been playing Diablo 2 years before GD even existed, and still haven’t got some of the unique items, so I know how shitty RNG can be. Besides, RNG wasn’t my point at all - I was talking about SR sets being “gated” by Ultimate SR farming (which is fine by me), but new “Ascendant” stuff can be accessed practically at any time (which kinda defeats the whole Ascendancy thing). Like, if you make one thing easily accessible, make the other one too, you know? Not talking about superboss and secret stuff, obviously.

K, I’m out (for real this time).

Ascendant mode is just an extra tickbox you can tick next to Ultimate, same as Veteran mode for Normal. The game goes on as before, you can still do quests and play the storyline. So not really sure why you feel Ascendant mode is some sort of wall to make things hard to access… it really isn’t.

One question is how is it locked off from everyone else, It is available in all difficulties, If you prefer flicking mobs and they fall over you do you.

Do you have a est on the new GD expansion pack one rumor Dec 2024/winter2024 or sometime in 2025?:v:.

It’s said in the post that it will launch in 2025.

As Oni said

After the metric f**k-tons of bad releases lately I am completely fine with a “when it’s done” approach.

Srry keep it on the same time-frame as the last 2 expansions GD is not D4 trust me that game had more fucking problems than it does now!.

The expansion will come out when it is ready.

that’s an excuse to postpone something even its a damn expansion pack and not a whole new game like GD 2 will be, then there’d would be a reason to delay the release of it, its uncalled for to do such with a expansion pack even if its a new GD expansion pack!.

Unlike most other devs these days, crate cares about a quality game with balance and good playability for the player base.

Whats your attitude problem lol, you don’t make sense and come off angry most of the time lol

You who are in a hurry are forgetting a great detail, this will possibly be the last experience of grim dawn, and until GD2 arrives it will take much longer, I support that they take as long as it is and do a great job of closing, (green fruit and raw food did not do good for anyone)

Come on, man. You know that working on something demands time. Even more considering that crate has a small team.

You do know that Forgotten Gods was also delayed from its initial estimated release because the devs weren’t happy with it?

There is no “timeframe” for release. Yes, Crate thought originally it might come out in 2024, but since they keep adding MOAR it’ll now be in 2025. It was never set in stone that 2024 would be it regardless of the state of the expansion because that’s not how Crate works.

Whenever it arrives, my wallet will be ready. I’m happy with it arriving sometime in 2025. If the devs go insane and decide to postpone it even more, so be it (even though that would be much sadness).

The game is already fantastic as it is. Anything below that bar would be spending money to degrade my experience.

So the next extension must be legendary. I could settle for mind-meltingly awesome, but nothing less.

G’luck Crate

Quick question about the altar ability to “bias loot to match your preferred damage type” : will this also affect the future affix reroll feature ?

I think it is called for, since we just called it.

We will talk about affix rerolling in due time. :wink:

Sorry for being offtopic.

Just wondering if there is a possibility of you adding the newer aetherial and chtonic mobs added in Ashes of Malmouth to Bastion of Chaos and Port Valbury?

Would spice them up.
