I don’t know if I’d bet many more would love a non-Grim Dawn ARPG instead, but I can confidently predict a whole lot would be mad if it wasn’t.

Would you love some Aether tea Zantai? It will help ease the tense muscle and unleashes unspeakable things xd
No assumptions, just saying

I really hope you live long to play these upcoming games, i wish you only prosper health!
Again, you are getting toxic with your response. I NEVER said you didn’t like Grim Dawn, I simply said why abandon the world when it is so well established? how about YOU stop putting words in my mouth or anyone else’s here and actually read the posts.
So lets try this again and read carefully this time…here we go…
GD has one of the best self built original worlds, why should they abandon it for a new world? I prefer they stay with what they have and build on it.
Now if you can figure out in any way I am saying you hate GD I would love to see your reasoning…
And none of us have said you are wrong, we simply disagree. You are allowed your opinion and you should express it, but you might want to stop getting mad when someone simply disagrees. We are all allowed our opinion and it should be free from toxic replies.
I would have no issues with them making a non Grim Dawn based RPG, but I prefer they put their energies into a GD2 first

Thanks. At nearly 73 it’s a bit of a toss up.

Not easy when you getting older, the spirit is willing but not always the body.
Do you eat healthy or trying to balance it out?
Not really, but I do need to exercise more to lose some weight.

We both have different opinions and that is ok. I’m not mad, in fact why should i get mad over a. video game?
People in general get upset when you are the minority of something opposite, this is life and i don’t care either.
I’ve been playing ARPG since 1995 and sequels isn’t always a healthy aspect to a game.
I can mention for example the Diablo series and torchlight series. I’m not saying Grim Dawn will endure that route, but with the community pushing it they will be asking for Grim Dawn 3 after 2 is released.
This is the nature of video games.
In the morning before you wake up. Green tea with a tablespoon lemon juice and honey is absolutely amazing.
Walking is also good, I’m not a supporting fan of running because when you get older it gives you joints problems.
Off topic but running is the worst cardio it’s pressure your heart , I am ex sportist worst thing you can do is to running

Absolutely
^^^ I am really looking forward to that. Not saying I am not looking forward to Fangs or GD2, I am 100%, but I have a special place in my brain for anything horror related, especially anything adjacent to Lovecraft.
Thankfully the overwhelming majority here, and likely everywhere, disagree with making a new IP ARPG. I’ve seen your posts seemingly complaining about not liking the setting. That is valid (for you) as one cannot argue others tastes. I understand the love for something like TQ’s setting, it was bright and colorful despite being brutal. But the mythology and story of Grim Dawn is original. Therefor it allows creative freedom that TQ’s setting could never allow for. Grim Dawn is one of the most well respect, loved, and rated ARPG’s ever made.
The overwhelming majority of people who bought this game seem to love it and WANT a sequel, especially since after FOA no further expansions will be coming. A company would be idiotic to ignore what the majority of fans want to make something only a handful of people want. You are in the handful. As someone who has owned or been part owner in several businesses, as a company you never create a competitor to your most successful product. To do so would generally be financial suicide. You take what people loved an continue to build on it, not scrap what they love and try to force something new down their throats because a few people wanted something different. Save the new IP’s for new genre’s of games. Crate did FF and thats amazing. New genre new setting. Thats the way to do it. Unless Grim Dawn 1 bombed which it didn’t, or unless Grim Dawn 2 bombs which it won’t, making a new IP ARPG would just be shooting themselves in the foot.

Let’s agree to disagree. But let’s talk realistic facts here, chances are very rare that Grim Dawn 2 will ever top Grim Dawn, no matter if the devs give it their best shot, that’s why it would of been better for them to start fresh, after all, they are developers it is their work to make games and come up with ideas whether old or new (This is of course my view and opinion)
The vast majority in gaming we have seen it all how it goes down when they keep asking and pressuring companies to their demands. Like the Diablo series and Torchlight series. It’s almost like that famous biblical quote, only few will be saved while the majority walk the highway xd
And yes, i don’t like the setting of Grim Dawn, however i enjoy the game’s core mechanics which is the strong points.

I’ve been following Grim Dawn since 2009
Business isn’t really your strong point is it? You just don’t seem to understand that if you have a big fan base of a game, they don’t want you to make another IP in the same genre. They want a sequel to that first game or to build on the first game with expansions/dlc. You keep going back to this very point that almost everyone here has disagreed with you on. And business owners have told you that you’re flat out wrong about. You are trying to present your own biases as fact to back up said biases. Thats not how business works and thats not how reality works.
There were people saying 25+ years ago that Diablo 2 wouldn’t surpass Diablo 1. I know I was there and laughed at them. If you build a great product, build up great will with the customer base, they will buy your games on your reputation alone. Blizzard had that for a long time then flushed it down the drain. Crate currently has that. Take a look at the steam ratings for Grim Dawn, 102k total ratings, 96k of them positive. Overall about a 95% positive rating. That kind of rating all but ensures that GD2 will likely outsell GD1 unless they make serious missteps between now and then. Like making it free to play with a cash shop for classes (sorry Last Epoch lol). But barring that more people will buy GD2 than 1 and its almost a forgone conclusion at this point. The top complaint about GD is that the graphics and engine are old. Thats what they are fixing with GD2 and the new engine they’re working on.
Bottom line a lot of the people here have been following Crate, IE Former Iron Lore devs, since Titan Quest. These guys have NEVER released a bad game and almost everyone who owns Grim Dawn knows that. If GD2 has an offline option, has no cash shop, and is standalone and not seasonal based, they will outsell GD1 and probably by a large margin because they’re the only major name on the market still doing that.
Business isn’t really your strong point? Getting personal now eh? Then maybe i did something wrong kid, making millions with my company lol. Grim Dawn is only a game, relax and breath… xd
It seems the Grim Dawn community is highly sensitive and fragile and can’t even reason the possibilities.
