Grim Dawn makes Diablo look like a joke, I can't recommend it highly enough.
I started to play this one, then when I was trying to decide how to place some skill points I went down the absolute rabbit hole of online build sharing, and companion apps to help you track how to place your points and what gear you need to aquire, got overwhelmed and bored at the same time and put it down.
I highly recommend grabbing at least Ashes of Malmouth and Forgotten Gods ASAP, if you find yourself enjoying the base game. Inquistor, Necromancer, and Oathkeeper really add to the build variety, and the expansion content itself is decently hefty and as well written as the base(which is absolutely great, especially for an ARPG. Dig into those lore notes you find!).
if I just started the game should I still get them or play the base game first
I would go ahead and grab them, especially if they're also still on sale, as a lot is unlocked immediately(the three masteries, you can enter Forgotten Gods content at any point by talking to an NPC. AoM requires beating the base game to start its act).
thanks ๐ will do
Great game. They also update it regularly with new content for free. There's a new paid expansion coming soon.
Edit: Currently have played it for 740h.
If you also enjoy Diablo there's a mod for Grim Dawn: https://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/mod-reign-of-terror/35347.
Can confirm: it's a great game and really worth it! Loved the dark atmosphere as well.
Thanks for the rec. Juat picked it up and gifted one as well. Couldn't beat the price.
Tempted to pick this up and then a friend tells me he doesn't think we'll play it enough. Like, whaaaa?
