@lemmy.worldNot sure about the upcoming months but I felt like 2024 started off with quite a few games coming out one after another, including Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth, Helldivers 2, Last Epoch and Dragon's Dogma 2.
And Manor Lords is coming out this month as well.
I'm on POP!_OS. I'm sorry to hear it doesn't fix it. :( I wonder if a recent update caused this.
I've been experiencing something similar lately and what I found helps is to go to your audio settings in your OS and change the audio output device to something else and then change it back to the correct one. If it doesn't work the first try, try again.
I hope that helps. It works for me. I never had this issue until recently. It's really annoying. :-/
I do wish they could give an ETA because the 'near future' could be anywhere between a week, a month or perhaps even longer.
However, I did read in an article that they plan to release a patch later this week, so hopefully it'll be released soon?
Waiting a whole nother week feels like having to wait a month. Time has slowed down to a crawl, it seems. Can't wait!
Played almost non-stop since launch. Despite the server issues I was having a really good time. I've now got 3 characters in end-game; just unlocked empowered monoliths with one and close to unlocking them with a second character. I started with a spellblade as my main, then created a warlock to play with my husband but she's now my highest level character (level 86). A few days ago I created a falconer which I'm actually enjoying the most out of the 3 classes I tried.
I joined CoF and really enjoy that faction. I initially decided to mix things up and join MG on my falconer but that quickly got boring because I didn't really see any benefits while I was leveling and I personally enjoy lots and lots of loot so I think CoF is better for me.
Although I've been using loot filters since the start I found that my stash tabs tend to be full a lot. So I had to spend quite some time at the weekend reorganising my tabs and selling or shattering loot that I wouldn't be using on the characters I'm playing at the moment.
Usually I get bored around endgame because ARPGs of course tend to be grindy and it sometimes takes quite a while to get the loot you want. But with the crafting system I'm actually finding this a lot less boring than in other ARPGs. It feels more rewarding even if I don't have the 'perfect' gear yet.
At first I was a bit disappointed at the number of skills you get to choose from, until I realised you can use most of the other masteries' skills as well and that you can create a really nice variety of builds with all the different skill trees. I think I respecced my necromancer about 4 times over the weekend just to try different things and find something I enjoy. It's been really fun so far.
I'm also enjoying the crafting a lot!
Yeah, I agree that the loading times are way too long. Plus when you transition to a new area your character just stands there, sometimes it'll say 'Entering [Area Name]' and sometimes you don't even know you're about to be teleported.
One thing I do hope they'll fix is that you automatically transition when you're standing just a bit too close (bit still too far away for this to happen?) to the white glowing thing. Sometimes I'll enter an area and accidentally leave immediately because of this.
