Pardon my last upload as the wrong Lost Ark video got pulled! Anyway, this is a CURRENT take on the game I see myself spending a ton of time with going forward. Should you?

  1. If you need some help, check out Kanon's YT channel, I watched several of his videos posted leading up to the start of early access for a crash course. Still feel mostly lost, but not too lost!

  2. Hearing about the diablo II and III passion… Has Paul/have you tried Last Epoch?

    I'm a huge AARPG fan and have played a number of games in the genre (D3, Grim Dawn/Titan Quest, Path of Exile, Wolcen, & Leage of Legends which of course isn't a AARPG but share similar controls).

    My heart was towards Diablo 3, where most other AARPGs have felt too fast, trivializing positioning. I focused on playing Demon Hunter in Diablo 3, and Marksman/ADC in league. These gave me love of needing to "kite" enemies, where the other AARPGs felt like enemies were dying too quickly to have to think about that.

    Last Epoch has had the most similar combat pacing to D3, where ranged characters need to consider kiting and positioning.

    The skill system is simply inspired as well. You level up a skill and augment it in its own skill tree. There are so many ideas that are brilliant. Last Epoch is my favorite AARPG. I think it's worth anyone's time.

  3. Fun game, great combat, not super grindy so far 20 hours in. A tremendous game overall so far. Agreed that UI is ugly and not friendly. Hope the support and quality of life gets to FF14 level someday!

  4. yes. Grind is fun. Bring it back to the good old days, and ignore the kids that are going to cry about how challenging the raids are later… Don't dumb down humanity.

  5. Hang on, I thought New World was the latest, greatest mmo rpg. Looks like we'll have every content creator telling us this is now huh.

    Seems completely legit…

  6. I bought a founders pack due to your coverage before the Beta. And I really had a lot of fun during the Beta. I'm now level 23 on my gunslinger and once again enjoying myself immensely. Thanks Paul for covering the game.

  7. Going to try it out, and if I like it, I'll be farming in it. Hopefully it's not like Destiny's farming and RNG bullshit. lol I just hate that I have to connect to a VPN just to play this, because I don't live in the US right now. >_>
