Inb4 - Yes I know it’s a me problem. I’m not the target demo. I’ve just been a fan of the franchise since I read The Sin War as a kid.
I’ll play through a Diablo once. As a necromancer. Exclusively as a necromancer.
Everyone I know is a gatcha addict. All they care about is ever growing numbers. Bigger damage. Filling paragon boards. Torment levels.
I just wanna play through the story content. Once.
That’s how I feel about games like Borderlands. Their incredibly fun games with simple yet fun gameplay with decent stories and cool maps.
I can’t get into the whole min/maxing, “proper” builds, or gear loadouts. I just wanna run through a wasteland blasting dudes in the face with cool guns and abilities.
Elden ring was my first souls game and I kept away from fan sites and youtube videos as much as possible until I beat the final boss. Didn’t want to tempt finding a meta build.
If I needed help, I asked friends. It was a great experience!
