To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Blizzard is finally releasing a sequel π it looks good so far from what I have seen. I actually haven't even played the Diablo III yet because it wasn't available on steam. I do like the art style they have went with in the latest version, it really makes you feel like its a hopeless fight π I have played a bit of Path of Exile which itself is a very good game. I know Diablo has a large and dedicated fan base, but I would say that is their biggest competition. I do hope they have more than just 3 classes, but I think the original only had three if I remember.Β

In a statement to GameSpot, a Blizzard representative has confirmed thatΒ Diablo 4Β will beΒ online-onlyΒ across all versions, including PS4 and Xbox One. At BlizzCon, we played some ofΒ Diablo 4Β and felt that the "live" aspect of the game introduced something new to the franchise.

This isn't good... 😱Β

No worries if you're in need of hacking-slashing-looting I'd suggest "Grim Dawn" instead ! π
I been watching Grim Dawn for a while now, just been waiting for them to bundle the game with all of the DLC. I loved Titan's Quest and I will support these devs once they put it all together, they still come out with DLC so I will wait I have plenty of games to play.... I still need to play Torchlight 2 π haha
Diablo 4 looks great I give Blizzard props on that, but I hate the fact that say 10yrs from now if they turn off the D4 servers that you can no longer play it unless they patch it specially.
Yes it's the "everything as a service" so many companies try to push down our throats I'm afraid. The game definitely looks gorgeous... but I'm pretty confident I'll survive without playing it π
As you say not much time anyway, and plenty of very nice alternatives without strings attached.
